Refer a Friend Promotion FAQs

  1. If I am referred and then I refer a friend or family member am I eligible for both sender and receiver rewards?

Yes, you are. This means that you would receive one $25 credit for being referred. Then, after activating with Public Mobile, you are eligible to take part in this promotion as a referral sender and earn $25 Refer-a-Friend credits during the promotional period. Learn more here.

2.I am a Legacy customer. Am I eligible for these rewards?

Legacy customers are not eligible for rewards. However, Legacy customers’ referrals are eligible for this offer, and can receive a one-time $25 account credit.

Yes it’s a horrible experience indeed. Faced it two weeks back myself. 

@Brooke_C@Alan_K, can we please drop WalMart as an approved seller of PM Sims?

 

They continue to allow the OSL reps to force in-store activations.  Let's boot them out!

 

If I were a new subscriber, I'd be quite dissatisfied.

You had to be careful with Walmart. They are notorious 

@rlu  You will get the usual (off-promotion) $10 referral credit. And the Walmart wireless person will get their usual PM sales commission.

Just wanted to share my experience for this deal.  I activated a sim card at home around 2 pm.  The referral number received a text message right away for the referral.

 

The $25 credit showed up the next day at 12 noon on both phones (referrer and referree).

 

Hope this helps anyone out there.

You had me fooled, dacdoter! I felt a flutter of hope when I read of the "24 hour extension" in your message when it landed in my email inbox. I'll try not to be as gullible in the future. Happy April Fool's Day!

Actually, they just announced a 24-hour extension!

Please make sure to hit this deadline.

Really nice of them.

I can't wait to get more credit.

Last month I got $25.

For sure, I can get more today.

Or even more, if they extend it again.

Oh, wouldn't that be great!

Lastly, one more thing:

Surely don't be mad at me for this trick, when you read down the left hand side of my words above (or just the capital letters)  🙂


 

Okkkkkkkkk. I get it now!!!! Thanks @SD08 to be nice and patient with me! I didn't catch it at all!!

It was an April Fool's joke, but based on the lack of responses, I don't think many people beleived the extension statement.  LOL
