I have been a client since last August. I took advantage of this promo and referred my husband last time it was available. He is thrilled with the service.
Credits are applied to your available funds within 72 hours of sign-up ONLINE at home and have put your friends phone number into the referral field.
So, yes, it's not applied to your initial sign-up cost but applied towards your second pay period (and third and fourth, if you got $25 credit and are on the $10/50min/50text plan)
I referred somebody and haven't received my $25 yet just wondering what's going on. It says I referred somebody but no bueno to the $25
1. Login to your self-serve account 2. Click on the "My Rewards" link on the overview page. 3. Click on the solid black triangle on the left of "Total Rewards earned" 2 times to show you the list of referrals of your friends' phone number. From this list, you will know which referral is missing.
Is your friend's phone number on your referral list?
If yes, ask your friend about where and when s/he activated her/his plan.
Referral credit will be credited within 72 hours after activation.
Send a private message to moderator for help if and only if your friend activated her/his plan at home.
You say you see the friend referral listed (I'm assuming the $1/30-day cycle). If you haven't seen the $25 reward yet, your friend either activated instore, or the reward has yet to be added to your account.

Share the love: get a $25 Credit for You and Your Friend by Referring them to Public Mobile
*This offer is online-only.
Hey Community,
From February 14th until March 18th, 2019, you and your friend can each get a $25 credit when you refer them to Public Mobile and they activate online.
Hi there I went to store and did it, can I get the $25 credit, because I didn't have the sim card.
If you used a referral, you will likely only get $10. The $25 referral was for online activations.
Not just likely
It will only be $10 for sure and only for the new subscriber
There was a case where the rep at Walmart, didn't go through their Telus portal, but opened up a separate browser window and activated the SIM that way. The customer said the next day they got the $25 credit. That walmart rep was probably new.
Ok but that can't be the proper way
Right, that rep probably got an earful from their manager.

Lol but do they know that?? I have been turned down at Walmart when asking to purchase the sim they have told me spececially we do not sell sim cards UNLESS you activate a plan in syore
Is Walmart your only choice?
Public Mobile would like to know this location if you want to let them know via private message.
I thought with Walmart you have to do the activation in-store?
No you don't. I purchased mine from there recently. The pressure was definitely applied by the salesperson to do so, but in the end I persevered and the salesperson relented!

Yes, they know that. They're losing out on some commission when you activate at home so they try to convince you to let them activate your account in store.

Well that actually is the case with mine. I lost my phone and am going to be purchasing a new PM sim ccard very soon. I just don't wanna have to wait to order one online
London Drugs, K Mobile, Wow Mobile, some Walmart, The Mobile Shop (Superstore/Loblaws related), apparently some (not all) Koodo outlets - will sell you a SIM.
