@Jb456 My win notification must have been sent the long way around the world.... Still standing by! LOL

[RosieR]

Congratulations to the winners!  

[Jb456]

@AE_Collector 

Congratulations on your win.  I haven’t received a text, so guess I haven’t won anything.  That is the way they are supposed to contact the winners, isn’t it?

@TessieBoo 

[Jb456]

@AE_Collector  thanks for confirming.

[AE_Collector]

I did win and did the “paperwork”. Just checked and the 1Gb hasn’t arrived in my account yet. They must have numerous people that aren't responding so they have to wait several days and then move on to the next group. Maybe not hearing back from some of them as well. Thats my guess anyway.

[Joewillier]

Really 

[dude65]

It would be nice if they would say that if you won, we will be contacting you soon and that the winners will be announced after any waiver.

[Dunkman]

@JessiePalmer 

I know that some community members have been contact if they won the 1GB data add on contest.  Need to sign waiver form/skill answering question before announcement.  Not sure about the Amazon give away contest though.

[darlicious]

If I remember correctly it takes about a week....you should know how long did it take last year?

[LurganIeUk]

After the riddle is submitted when would one expect to see the GB in their account?

[BeachNBeer]

Has the Amazon draw taken place?

Hi,

May I know if the $0 Free Holiday Giveaway: 500min INTL Long Distance incl CA & US, is just one month free or unlimited time added to your account?

Thank you.

It was a one time free add-on to your account. Those free minutes would stay on your account until you used it up..even if that takes several months or more.

EDIT...as long as your regular plan is ACTIVE, the 500 free minutes are yours until you use them up.

Thank you for the info.

@MNJ 

The two add on gifts were available for "purchase"($0) until the end of 2020. At the stroke of midnite they were no longer available. They will stay on your account for as long as it takes for you to use them up.
