No, you won't.  PM rewards system is for PM accounts only, won't extend to Koodo 

@slusagm - My comment was towards YOUR wording. PM rewards system is for PM accounts only. My comment clearly stated his balance would be transferred. I wasn't saying the referral he receives now will carry over. There you go again not reading!

No, you'll lose them!

​Even though Public Mobile and Koodo are owned by TELUS, their rewards are completely separate. It's like how Tim Hortons and Burger King are both owned by the same parent company,  You can't walk into a BK and try to spend your Tims Rewards points on a Whopper!

​Once you switch, your Public Mobile account closes and those referral points vanish. Be sure to redeem any points you currently have for bill credits or add-ons before you leave!

Thanks everyone

Thanks

@Kanethedog 

To add and to clarify, even you can redeem the points for credit, those Friend referrals you are getting monthly will not continue with Koodo after you switch over.  Also, to switch to Koodo with Easy Switching, you can only choose from the small number of Postpaid plans offered in your My Account

@slusagm - Although @Kanethedog could redeem the existing points beforehand with multiple $20 bill credits and have the bill credits transfer to Koodo (via Public Mobile to Koodo Easy Switch), OP would no longer receive any new points (including Refer-a-friend) because of the lack of a rewards system at Koodo.

According to this info @slusagm , it does. At least the balance is transferred.

To add to this @Kanethedog , why not refer them to Koodo using your Koodo referral number? Also, from what I've read and you will have to confirm this...  any balance you have in your account can be carried over to Koodo. So before you port over, cash in all your points for as many $20 bill credits as you can get!
