Holiday 2021 Gifts are here!

[Kristowhy]

Looks like gifts have arrived for us all!  @darlicious 

Amazing $30 referral bonus, 2GB free data and 500 minutes for all existing and new subscribers Dec 1 to Dec 31!

Seems like simple activation too....just have to answer YES to text received from PM.

[joycep]

Yes

[lkut4u]

Yes the account is active.

[lkut4u]

My account is active and on autopay. 

I guess as someone suggested, maybe a moderator can manually apply those to my account.

[Gromick]

I have responded YES and the message indicated that the gift would be immediately available but I didn't get any response nor it the extra data showing up under usage...

Got it.....but I had read here that you do receive texts in USA without a USA add on. Yup hooped if in another country or left your SIM at home. But in USA ... then buy the texting add on. I see approx. $45 value in freebies. 

If you can't get it and reply to it before the 31st then you're kinda hooped.

Even with knowing the short code to reply to.

See above. 

Edit: so there are so far 2 problems with this method: 1. No texting feature for really old plans, 2. Not in Canada, or US with texting roaming.

Or without you mean? And device cannot receive texts as I have a problem with.

Text will come between 1 - 15.

1. Between December 1st - 15th, we’ll send you a text message with your holiday gifts. 
2. To redeem them, just reply “YES” and your free data and international minutes will be automatically applied to your account.

I got my text from 4911 today and the rewards were instantly applied when I responded with YES, so I'm super happy 🙂

[queerqueen]

Thanks. I will check. If I did not received it by Dec 15, I will contact PM.

They could order a cheap sim card and have a friend or family member perform a sim swap. But I asked Jade all these questions in the official thread. Hopefully she answers them!

True.. 

I hope they will allow ticket open with PM and have them apply the bonus directly

[darlicious]

Message recieved from pm on 4911.

or you have 1 month to send your SIM back home for a family member to help you to receive the prize

Is your account currently active?

[darlicious]

@queerqueen 

My top guess would be 5129 but pm also sends texts on 611, 100, 5179 and a couple others but they have been targeted offers from telus and koodo so I doubt this offer will be sent via them.

@lkut4u 

That's a tough one.....your account has to be active. But how to reply to:

1. A text you can't recieve?
2. Maybe by texting yes to the "shortcode" it was recieved on? ie .5129?
3. How to text at all when you can't connect to the network at all?
4. Good question. Maybe only if you can get a sim swap performed by a friend or family member.

[pkaraa]

@queerqueen Between today and 15th dec you ll receive the Text which needs to be replied with YES for the promo to be applied.

[queerqueen]

I thought this is for last year, because I have not received the text message as an existing customer. From which number, I should receive the gift message?

[queerqueen]

Hi,

Are we expecting the same gift this year for the existing customers?

[Anonymous]

Computergeek541 muddied the waters last night with his question about YES2. He should have sent it in pm.

Can we please put YES2 to rest.

It's YES.

[pkaraa]

Woo Hoo ... holiday season started in right way at PM.

Do we get another thread saved for Promo SMS received so people can check and reply with YES or "YES2" whatever they like. 😄

I have no idea....am hoping so. Only if I had a spare iPhone. That is why I tagged @Nezgar 

If I miss....I miss. Plan on using a different method instead of ZTE and will use an iPhone with a blue tooth connection to a Panasonic phone set.

Worst case, i guess you can wait till after Dec 15, then open a ticket with PM and ask them to re-send the text, at that time you put the SIM in a phone and get ready

When you remove the sim card and put it in the phone do you then get the texts? Can we just text YES to the short code number....like 5129? That it is sent from?

As always, there are some questions… one referral per person? What person, new customer or existing referring customer?

Yes, the terms state that it's only for one customer referral - one credit
