Is there no way to get the 2GB promotion if it ends before the SIM card arrives?

It is only worth it for me if I get the promotion but it will end before the SIM arrives, is this really how the promos work?

I believe the shipping time entirely depends on the shipper and how quickly they fulfill the order and how far the destination is from the that contractor. The one and only time I ordered a couple of SIM cards from pm they arrived in 3 days. But I also noticed they came from Naniamo on Vancouver Island to my place in Vancouver.

@Anonymous  ... I was a newbie back the end of April  ... and didn't know any better and just ordered it on line . It was quick  I thought, and didn't understand all the warnings that I have seen since . LOL  .     Maybe location is an issue ? I 'm in Ontario so maybe  closer to the source so it has less time to get lost  ... no idea ,just know it worked for me and wouldn't hesitate to try it again .

 @barndoor : You ordered from here? I seem to recall seeing many complaints of how long it takes to arrive if ever. Maybe they've improved.

@Anonymous  I assume the 3-7 you are referring to is re sim shipping ?  I can't argue with their number because mine was here in 4 business days . just sayin . 

 

I find it interesting  how Jade  says the sim SHIPS in 3-7 days  ( which would be closer to a 3 week arrival)  but the big marketing ad says  it will ARRIVE in 3 -7 days   ...   it's almost  as though there is a language barrier involved .

 @barndoor : Preachin' to the choir. Poor wording often gets pointed out. On exceedingly rare occasions, they change it. It's simply copy/paste from the prior thing with all of it's poor wording continuing on. And then they get promoted up to the big leagues.

 

Edit: the announcement finally got edited to remove in store. Not sure when. Maybe an Oracle can see the edit history? So that's something. The 3 - 7 days should absolutely be changed to 3 weeks or something because that's clearly not what happens.

I  agree ... but then they should not write    IF YOU NEED A SIM ,  Buy sim on line  ...  Your SIM will arrive in 3-7 days. Activate with the promo code above to get this deal. "

 

In my understanding of the english language that means ... you buy it from us we will honour the promo code on the sim you bought from us and arrives in a week or so  . I saw no exclusion for date either in print or by footnote re that statement.        Come on marketing people, if you don't mean it don't say it .

Unfortunately pm cannot ship it's SIM cards in a timely manner to coincide with their flash sales. However there are likely several retail locations in your area that you could purchase a sim card from including TMS ( Loblaws, RCSS) London Drugs, Husky, Wal-Mart ( maybe....I avoid personally) or you can look on Facebook marketplace, Craigslist......or tell us your area and you may have a fellow member willing to give, trade etc..... SIM cards if you give us your general location.

 @inaam : Just to clarify some of that above...when you activate using a referral code then _you_ would get the $10. It's when you refer someone using your code after your activation that you would start the $1 and _they_ would get the $10.

Edit: lol nvm I see the poster edited their post.

@inaam...get the sim card and if you miss this promo..save it for the next. Seems like there's usually only a short time between promo's now. Liable to be more promo's soon, with schools starting up again.

@inaam Another option is as someone posted yesterday that amazon has the PM sim for ~$6.95 and with prime you can get it probably the next day.

Many stores sell simcards, if you are able to get there. Mobile shop, wow mobile , Walmart is hit and miss as they often require activation.  What city are you in some members might have a spare sim
