I'm out in the sticks, no where to get them in town here. There is a Walmart an hours drive away if they are available at all Walmarts. Might be my plan B if the shippment doesnt come by Friday. Thought I saw a thead where people were complaining that some Walmart locations refuse to sell them for self signup. Hopefuly the package gets here and I avoid the BS.
Cheers
Hum don't think to spend many hours to drive to a Walmart to buy a sim without activation...it would be exceptionnel...here for the tracking of your package...from @NDesai
Enter the order number as the tracking/reference number in the box
Order number is sent on your email when you place an order. Please wait until you get the shipping confirmation before tracking your package.
Click on theTrackbutton and it will ask you to enter yourpostal code associated with your order. You will be asked for your postal code only if dulicate reference numbers are found in their system.

I see this $25 referal promo ends March 31. I ordered 2 sims for my parents yesterday and hoping they get here before the weekend. If the SIMs don't arrive in time, is there a way to start the signup process and put in the SIM info later once they get here so I can still catch the promo?
Cheers!
You need the numbers on your sim card to register... Can you buy Sims, if you want..in another store..london drugs, wow mobile, Mobile shop....??

@zigkiss From what I am understanding, you and your friend receiving $25 credit each IS correct. Also, your account should have the $1 refer-a-friend reward (for referring your friend) and if you don't see it, contact a moderator to have it applied to your account.
no I used a new email address for him but I refered him with my phone number so he got a $25 credit on his account and I in mine but I didn't get the second $25 credit for him using my referal.
@zigkiss , this is confusing. You referred him, and you both received a $25 referral credit; that is correct. You don't get a second $25 credit for him using your referral - you referring him and him using your referral are the same thing. I hope that makes sense.
Edit: I'm sure my grammar is way out of bounds, wanted to follow what the poster is saying.

hello I was refered by a friend and I did online activation on March 26th 2019. Neither me nor my friend received $10 or $25 rewards.
Please help
For online activations, your friend should have received a text message about successfully referring a friend. Within 72 hours of receiving that text message both of you should see the $25 credit in your available funds, but usually the next day after receiving the text message.
By the way, can you lend me the time machine, there is something I would really like to take a look at before it happens. ;o)
If you activated online (not in-store), the $25 credits will appear in each of your accounts within 72 hours (often by the next day). If you did the activation at a store, only you will get a $10 credit (same timeframe).
I never got the $25 credit yesterday when I referred a friend yesterday and I also did not get my $10 credit which my friend got that I registered. Someone please help me get what I deserve. Thanks
The $25 referral credit is a time limited promotion for online activations only, not in-store. If your friend entered your Public Mobile number correctly during online activation, you would have received a text message saying you've successfully referred a friend. Then, within 72 hours you will both receive the $25 credit in your Available Funds.
However, since your friend received a $10 referral credit, it means they activated their account in-store. In this case, the referring account does not receive any initial credit. You will receive a $1/30day friend reward, as long as your friend's line is active on Public Mobile; this $1/30day friend reward is also given for referrals when the account is activated online.
Everything appears to be correct on both your accounts.

Yes I got the text and got $10. I guess it will show at the renewal time. I'll check it out then.
I'm confused. Are you the new customer? Are you the existing referring customer? Are you looking at both sides of accounts?
The new customer gets the $10 credit using a number of an existing customer. The existing customer gets the $1/30 days reward.
The existing customer will see the refer-a-friend in the rewards area of their overview page.
Edit: and in light of the subject line...when activated in store.
@Anonymous you might be on to something...
For in-store activations, the referred account receives the $10 referral credit, while the referring account will ge the $1 refer-a-friend award, with no initial referral credit (ie. no $10).
@ac3 you say you referred but only got the $10, so that would mean you were the referee - meaning, you activated a new account in-store using your friend/family member's Public Mobile number for the referral, is that right? If yes, then the person/account that referred you will get the $1 refer-a-friend award each month while your account remains active with Public Mobile. This means your account is correct, nothing further is necessary.

As @Anonymous mentioned, the $1 friend referral reward can be viewed by logging into your account and looking at the My Rewards section, Refer-a-Friend Reward. If you want to see a list of 'friends', click on My Rewards button. On the next page, click on the small arrow (pointing sideways) to expand the list of 'friends' and you will see their numbers.
Thanks for the clarification. But I have not received the $1 for myself due to the referral though. Is it applied on next billing date or it should up in my rewards within a few days? Been almost a week.
If the referred friend used your number then you should see it in your rewards area on the overview page. Then at renewal it'll convert to Available Funds and be used towards your plan cost.
Did you get a text saying anything about being a referral?

I have a question, I got a referral number and activated yesterday, I then activated my son and used my number for the referral. Shouldn't I have two $25 credits? one from the Referral I got and one for the one I gave so $50?
I thought you got the credit both for using a referral number and also for being a referral number, I only show one $25.
Yes that is correct you should be seeing the second $25 within a couple of days.

The referral credits will show up within 72 hours, officially. Usually, you will see it in your account within a day. For the account you activated yesterday, you probably received the credit today (early morning). When did you activate your son's account with your number as a referral, yesterday or today?
Can you buy Sims, if you want..in another store..london drugs, wow mobile, Mobile shop....??
