@leoharvey1 You will need to wait after the 15th December and reach the CSA to claim the gifts.
That’s the answer to this question from Public Mobile:
If customers do not receive their SMS offer by mid-month or are unable to redeem because of a specific situation, our agents can help with next steps. However, I would strongly advise customers to wait until mid-December and return if they are still unable to redeem through SMS.

@barndoor No this year it’s not like that. You can’t go in your account and choose the add-ons for free. It’s automatic after the SMS and your answer »yes » the gifts are automatically added to your account.

This was the actual reply by PM staff to that question @tbuxton :

Yes, you can @tbuxton
After December 15, contact the CSA's to request this:
To contact a Customer Support Agent, there are 2 methods:
- Use the ticketing system for a faster response time. Click here and type Customer Support Agent, then select contact Customer Support Agent, then select other (or the topic that more closely matches your request). Click the result which states Click here to submit a ticket and follow the prompts, or,
- Send a private message to the Customer Support Agent by clicking here You’ll need to be logged into your Community account for the link to work.
Watch for their response in your Community private mailbox which will be indicated by a number on the small envelope icon to the left of your Community avatar.

I am out-of-country until 2022, without access to SMS. Is there an alternate method that can be used to receive the Holiday Reward? Thank you in advance for your assistance.

My cell phone is a ZTE homeline replacement and does not receive texts. How do I get 'More the Merrier'?

I got the message and replied with YES on Dec 1st.
My account does not have either of these add ons today. So this is definitely not 'Instant'
Thanks

We got our texts in the morning of December 1st, replied yes right away and still do not have the add ons. At what point do we create a ticket. It's been over 48 hours.

It’s probably done in batches. I’ve got two, but still waiting for other accounts to get the text.

@ecashmore if you have already received the text , you can text YES to short code 4911.
Please note you might not see the bonus on your account immediately. Some reported that it took 24 hours , and it seems like it is even slower now. (but some did receive the bonus right a way, so YMMV)

What if we received the text and accidently deleted it? In the past, we were able to get the perks by logging into our account. I preferred that system than waiting for a text....

do you have an official words from PM? do they just need time to apply the bonus or some YES replies were lost ?
I got nothing on the first day. Yesterday afternoon, I got one set of add-ons, and earlier today, I also got the add-ons for another account. Add-ons were appied instantly. I'm still waiting for other accounts (not text message yet).

You are not alone. it takes around 24 to 48 hours before you will see it on your My Account. As long as you replied YES.. you are good. Just wait a bit
That's not my experience. I've been able to get the add-ons instantly after me replying/requesting the bonuses (more than one account). I do realize though that many people have not yet received the text message or have replied to the text message but then didn't receive any confirmation.

I just activated my sim today. Got a message for 2gb bonus data but didn't get a text message for bonus international 500 minutes. is there is separate message i need to send or receive in this case.
For new activation, there is nothing to do. Currently is a long delay for this bonus. Wait 48 hours and it should show up.

@NDesai wrote:@laurajcj You probably did not get any reply after replying "YES". This also happened to me yesterday. I still don't see add-ons. Don't worry though, PM will know about these glitches and sort something out.
Look like the apply bonus could be a manual process, @NDesai did Jade ask you and other Oracles to go over and work overtime for them? it's only Day 2 and it's a huge deadlock.. this thread could still be live next Christmas with this pace.. LoL
