Yes for most for some reason....I don't have that problem. I think it has to do with all my cookies and milk I keep around for Santa? 🎄🍪🍪🍪🥛🎅

Thank you. That worked. But why do I have to use the Ingonito browsing mode? It is not something I normally use. Is it recommended when accessing your Public Mobile account?

@mrtonedogg 

Same here 2 years and no text yet. Patiently waiting.

Hello there.

 

I have been with PM for about 2 years now. I still haven't received the Holiday Rewards (Bonus data and Int'l calling).

 

Is eligibility only apply to certain customers?

 

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Still waiting for the text 😶

@PoisonPal Try logging in to your self-serve account using incognito/private browsing mode and see if it's there.

Hello,

As per the instructions, I logged into my Rewards account and selected the Add On for 1GB of free data. I received a confirmation email on Dec 2 of receiving this offer. I have checked my account repeatedly since and I cannot find anything suggesting this free add on was added. Any thoughts?

Let this be a lesson young man.....lol....no seriously you can try texting YES2 to 4911 to begin with but the best way to be resubscribed is to contact customer support and ask them to add you back in.....and stay in this time. We don't get that many promotional text messages to make it worth missing out on freebies?!!

Jason29

I typed Stop in the text about getting promotional texts.  I want to keep receiving them please.  Can I be added back on to the list please.

And only AFTER Dec 15, if you did not receive the text, contact @CS_Agent to get the promo added.

Folks, please read both the details of the promo and previous messages posted in this thread. So many are posting the same experience of not getting the text message and/or trying prematurely to get the promo.

 

This is simple: wait for the text invitation (which may come as late as Dec 15) THEN send your YES2 reply to get it. NOT the other way around.

 

Be patient!

So I guess I just need to wait for the message. Thanks

It is for everyone, but as mentioend earlier, send a YES2 message won't work until after you've received the text message from Public Mobile.

They're sending out the texts between Dec 1 and Dec 15.

 

Be patient.

Recieved mine on the 3rd and the 4th. One more account to be reactivated in the next couple of days and the rest of the month to decide whether to reactivate the $60 US Roaming plan early or let it be? Anyone traveling to the US for Xmas? Thanks pm!

I'm not sure what the thinking  is behind the bonus  rollout but I wouldn't worry about it until the 16th of December

Thank you.

I am still waiting to receive the text from 4911.

OK, thanks.

 

Have a nice Xmas

@CaroleO123- Only one of three accounts of mine got the text so far. Worry about it on the 16th.

Hi, my husband and I have exactly the same plans and we started them exactly the same time.  However, he got the holiday gift bonus 2G + 500 international minutes but I didn't.

 

I tried texting YES2 to 4911 and I got an automated response saying "Looks like you're not eligible for this offer"

 

Not sure why this is, please can you help.

 

Thanks

Thank you very much.  This is a great gift.

@Jerielle   The text with the free holiday gifts are being sent out in batches until the 15th of this month, so you may not have received the offer yet.  Not to worry about losing out as all customers will receive them regardless of whether you've been naughty or nice 😉

 

If you don't receive any text from 4911 by the 15th, then you will need to contact customer support and they will add the freebies to your account.

Hi there. Not sure if I didn't receive the text or deleted it by mistake since my bill is paid automatically. Did I lose out on all the Christmas cheer and now I am on the naughty list or is there a way to fix my dopey mistake ? Thank you for trying to give me a gift

@Chrissyrioux12   Indeed, if you're on the old rewards then it's definitely not worth switching to the new points system just to get an extra GB of data.
