Just wondering if the winners that have been contacted by email and not responded because perhaps the email went to their junk folder and deleted would be send a second reminder.
Also is there a listing of the prize winners?
Solved! Go to Solution.

I wouldn't expect that someone posting more than one message in the contest thread would disqualify someone. Someone could easily have something to say about someone else's comment and that doesn't mean tthat an unfair advantage was gained. Public Mobile would have taken the usernames of everyone who posted a message and more than one posted message in that thread would have just meant one entry.
Thanks for your explanation. Totally makes sense.
With that many entries, it just wasn't clear what took place. At one point, it seemed duplicate entries were being removed from the thread itself.
@BEER , it doesn't take much time at all. Go on the winners' list, click on their profiles. All the top $100 winners had only a few posts. Congrats to them!

The contests are open to all public mobile customers and usually require a post of some kind in the thread announcing the contest. You can sign up for email notifications of these types of things or just visit the community on a regular basis. @Ed404 may have noted he didn't recognize very many community regulars I was familiar with four names which given the amount entrants and the approximately 200,000 customers of public mobile the fact we even recognize one name is amazing.
This makes sense - there are 388 pages of posts that contain more then 1000 posts. Anyways it is what it is and let's just congratulate the winners.

PM was running a holiday promo to give away Amazon gift cards, by commenting a favourite part of the Christmas season: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Announcements/CONTEST-NOW-CLOSED-Win-a-100-Amazon-gif...
The contest is finished, but of course you can still get monthly rewards by contributing in the community: https://productioncommunity.publicmobile.ca/t5/Rewards/Community-Reward/td-p/415

Didn't know about the 48 hr timeline --- That is the reason for my post asking if there would be more then one email just in case that the initial email went to spam folders and deleted.

Good question! I would also like to know if and when they started contacting potential winners.
I have to notify family and friends to check their emails.
With that many winners, I can imagine the potential overhead.
