@happysgurl, the biggest possible reason you didn’t get the $25 is if your friend activated in store. There were various promos running when this was on, and many new signups were forced by the retailers to activate in store, rather than buying the SIM card for home online activations.
Saying this, if your friend did activate on line, and did activate before time expired, and also used your phone number as a referral, then I would suggest you send a private message to the moderator_team for help in getting this resolved.

I had a friend sign up but I never got the referral credit... how do I know if he did something wrong or if it was a technical error?
09-14-2018 10:06 AM
did you do it in-store? then it's $10. If you have done yourself online, send a PM to @CS_Agent
09-14-2018 09:13 AM
@sk4551, if you activated in-store, you do not qualify. The $25/$25 promo was only for online activations.
09-14-2018 09:04 AM
Hi - I signed up yesterday through referral, but only got $10 credit as opposed to $25. How do I get this fixed??
Thanks.
09-14-2018 08:31 AM
it requires 24-48 hours to show up for both
09-14-2018 08:01 AM
@Monikacurrie, either they activated in store, which disqualifies them, or they activated after Sept 13th at 23:59 Eastern Time.
The first post in this thread is very clear about the time of the promotion, and the required process.

So i referred 2 people, i have a $2 refer credit but nether people nor myself got the $25
09-14-2018 04:30 AM
Was this extended? I got 3 referrals today and recieved $25 for each of them.. Gonna miss that. Only been on PM for going on 2 weeks and got just about $250 in referral credits. Won't have to pay for awhile
09-14-2018 02:52 AM
I'm in the "ordered SIM card but haven't received it in the mail yet" camp. I'd love for PM to extend this deal by just a day or two!

Unfortunately you have to receive the SIM and activate by the deadline, not just order the SIM. It's too bad they can't track when you bought it, or let you activate with a placeholder.
If you're going to wait for the next online promotion, consider ordering a SIM now so you have one on hand. Obviously that's not going to be useful if you end up taking a promotion that includes a free SIM in-store. Sometimes the in-store promotions are more generous (for the new customer) than online, for example I think the last in-store promotion was free SIM and $25 credit, vs the online $10 SIM and $25 credit to both new customer and referrer.

I did it in walmart, but activated it online on their computer.
09-13-2018 09:55 PM
@sapphire13 you can buy Sims at Walmart wow mobile, k mobile and London drugs. Walmart is hit and miss for selling Sims without activation.
09-13-2018 09:54 PM
@sapphire13, You're going to have to wait for the next big promo. Who knows. It could start tomorrow!

I'm guessing it's going to be too late for me to get this promo now if I they haven't ordered a sim yet?

$25 referal credit promotion is so popular. I went to Aurora Walmart yesterday, I was told it was sold out. Luckly I got it at Richmond Hill Walmart today.

Presumably they did it in store (WM, LD, or WOW) and the salesperson lied to them. The $25/$25 is online only. What you describe is the regular referral bonus.
Did they do it in-store or online? The $25/$25 online bonus ends tonight at 11:59pm EDT.

So I guess my quesitons are does the bonus stack and is my Aunt's brand new account able to participate in this offer minutes after I create her account?
Yes, that is correct. And you will get $1/mo reward as long as your aunt keeps an active plan and your aunt will get $1/mo as long as your uncle keeps an active plan.

It say 11:59 EST. We are still in Dailylight savings time - EDT. So maybe there will be an hour's grace
🙂 That's why I say ET for simply eastern time so as to avoid that ambiguity.

If you go all the way back up to the first post on page one of this long thread and then scroll down a little, you'll see a box saying Spoiler that is clickable. Click on it and scroll down a little again and you'll see mention of when it expires. It's from an actual company representative/employee. I'd say it's 100% 100%.
09-12-2018 03:56 PM
I would be close to 100% certain. It is stated in the official announcement's own FAQ section on the first page of this thread.
But, I don't have control over public mobile....
09-12-2018 03:30 PM
Thanks is that 100% info?
09-12-2018 03:00 PM
Until tomorrow 11:59 PM EST (right before midnight - Septmeber 13)
09-12-2018 02:55 PM
Is today is the last day or tomorrow all day? (sep 13th). It says until...
09-12-2018 02:50 PM
I'm just a van ride away from where ever it's shipped from. Previous SIMs have arrived for me in southern ontario as early as 2 days later, worst was 4 business days with a 3-day long weekend in the middle.
Waiting for 2 myself, ordered on Saturday or Sunday this past weekend too.

09-12-2018 02:02 PM
According to FAQ section,
This promotion will end September 13, 2018 11:59PM EST.
So one more day, hopefully, it arrives by tomorrow...
09-12-2018 01:52 PM
Anyone know if today is the last day as in the deal will end at midnight tonight or will tomorrow be the last day? Expecting a sim in the mail ordered on the weekend and thought it would come today, but didn't, so should show up tomorrow.
