Signed up a referral, received a text message a few hours later that I had received the $25 credit, and my friend confirmed he also received the credit. Great incentive!
I got my plan ($40/3G) activated just yesterday, and forgot to use my referral number code. Is there a way it could be applied now? Since I have the referral code, I really wish to use it for the credit. I also sent a message to the Moderator_team.
I'm pretty certain I will be going with Public for my data needs... I am currently unconverted and would love anyone who needs a referral to send me the details I will need.
A few questions though: Can I buy a SIM at Wal-Mart, but then take it home to activate online?
In order to take advantage of the $10 credit as well, I just need to activate a plan over $30 and attach auto-pay? Does a "Build your Own plan" over $30 qualify as well?
Hoping to get a referral to use for this weekend as I plan to purchase a plan by Sunday March 3rd 🙂
@KharmaScribbles As per the promotion details, the $10x6 credits are applicable for any new customer activation on any $30+/30 day or $90+/90 day plan. Honestly though, the premade plans are usually the best value for most people.
Walmart is supposed to sell sim cards for $10 without forcing you to activate there. Some people have reported difficulties with some locations refusing to sell the sim card unless you activate in store.
Please note that the $25 bonus referral credit offer is only applicable for online/at-home activations.
Autopay is not required to get the $10 off x 6 months. Autopay will get you a $2 discount and a bonus 0.5GB data bonus on specific plans with 3g data speeds.

I have referred 2 people and have not got 25$ it a bad thing that we cant contact anyone to deal wit this. Im still waiting
@Dimplesmd143, did these people activate online or in a retail store. They must activate at online and not at a retail store. Contact them and see if they got $10 or $25 for their referral credit.

@ace_phone, in the three dot menu of the original post, there is an option to send by email to someone. Why retype an SMS, when you can just send an email?
waiting time is few hours to 2 days.
