And I think $10 is fine. No need to increase it, but I don't understand the May 10 date.
Perhaps they are piloting this to see if it is viable for implementation in the long haul?

I am all out of friends for now. If know anybody that wants to make friends with me, send them my way. I promise not to bite.

Why have a May10 cut off date? This should be perminent. The new customer already paid for the SIM. Only those with referral will get that credit back.
Koodo does this for their prepaid plans. SIM cost $20 and you get a $20 credit when you open a new prepaid account with Koodo. No deadline. It has been going on for as long as I can remember.
And I think $10 is fine. No need to increase it, but I don't understand the May 10 date.

Sorry, no time machines/mulligans. Good things come to those who wait.
Have you checked on Kijiji for a time machine?
Good to see new promos coming to Public Mobile!
This would only work if these things are cheap to buy! Telus can easily churn customers from one brand to another. I can't churn out friends at the same pace.

@Wormie, unfortunately you won't be eligible for the $10 as it is just starting today.

@Wormie, the party doing the referral gets $1 savings per 30 days. The new customer gets a one time $10 account credit after 72 hours. The deal is actually a lot better for the new customer.
I wish I can makes a whole bunch of new friends before this deal expires. All my other friends have moved on to greener pastures at Koodo. With the customer realignment initiatives that Telus is undertaking, doing referrals is like running on a treadmill.
