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?

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.

@Lieux 

Oracles and moderators have the ability to mark solutions to any topic, so the solution button is constantly visible next to every single reply, unless already marked.  It is possible that one of us accidentally marked a solution as we were scrolling down the screen, as the buttons occupy the same space we are swiping on our phones for any who are righthanded.  I've personally been very careful about it ever since I started seeing those buttons, and in any case, I wasn't visiting this thread using my phone any time close to when the solution notification arrived, so I know it wasn't me.  Perhaps one of the other oracles?  Or perhaps one of the many new moderators recently hired, who may not be used to the forum (though I'm not sure if they would use their phones/tablets to browse the threads)?

What's that @Alan_K ? I didn't wrote the solution....My message isn't the solution...is it a mistake or someone plays with the button??? @ShawnC13 do you know?

It’s just in your messages you you write the name of the customer 2 times and in the beginning of YOUR message and it’s mixing when we read it..the orange line on the left is going in your message too not only in the message from the customer you replied....it’s hard to explain but don’t be worry it’s not a big deal... perhaps just for me I need to pay more attention...Smiley Happy

They just have to go to London Drugs or Walmar and purchase a Public Mobile Sim card.  Costs $10.  They need to have their own unlocked phone and they will have to activate their own SIM card, instead of getting/allowing the store to do it.  When they activate their SIM card on-line, they will also have to have YOUR name and phone number so that you get the credit.

Easy-peasy!

Haha, I hear ya. My wife and I signed up last month, duh!

You can purchase the sim card online at Public mobile and have it mailed to your house or buy it in store at Walmart. Remember that the current $25 referral credit for both parties is only available if the sim card is registered online. Cheers Joro16

I referred my friend yesterday 20/02/19 but it didnt say anything about the 25$ thing. She put my number in the referall spot and then i did get a text saying about the 1$ but curious because in this it says we both have to agree to terms/?? how do we know if we did that? Or is it just the regular terms you agree to when you sign up? I know it says 72 hrs as well but just curious if it doesnt say anything until the 72 hours lol.


Friends don't let friends activate in-store for this promotion. 😫

If your friend activated themselves online, you will each receive the 25$

@juli-j21 

Did your friend sign up instore or at home, online? 

 

If at home, online, then both of you will qualify for $25 credit within 72 hours (usually within 24 hours). You will also get ongoing $1 monthly credit.  

 

If your friend signed up in store, your friend will get $10 credit and you will get ongoing $1 per month credit as long as your friend stays with PM.
