Hi All,

I am new to PM forum and would like to port in my Freedom number next week. Kindly let me know if I get the free sim card from Walmart mobile than I will be able to get the 2GB bonus data and also $10 referral discount. If I might loose any of these two signup bonuses than I will buy my own sim card to activate online.

Thanks and Regards,

Shah

Holy Moly....if that wasn't confusing enough! In bullet points to be clear....

 

  • To cover all of your bases register your email to receive the 2GBBONUS promocode.
  • As far as we know August 13th is the last day to activate with the promo code.
  • It is only valid on $35+ plans and you will lose it if you change your plan.
  • It is only valid for online activations and is not stackable with any in market promotions.   
  • You can port in your freedom number during or after activation thru your self serve account.
  • There are no extra fees at PM period. But save your freedom SIM card to reply YES within 90 minutes of receiving the porting authorization text. Keep the freedom sim for troubleshooting. 
  • Canadian Cell Supplies sells pm sim cards usually for $5 with free shpping via Canada Post usually within 5 business days.

I would say you are incorrect because it is stated.

 @Anonymous : Um...yes I know. I agreed with you above.

 

 @LurganIeUk : Yes that is an interpretation. But they should remove the page to complete the time limitation. Thus my comment about the marketing department.

E X A C T L Y not very thorough in the laundry list replies. I interpret is is OVER!!!

Are you sure on that one...I thought you can still do a port during activation?


Yes I suggest @Triguy should strikeout that line. It is quite erroneous.

@LurganIeUk   See my edited response above.

@shahestates 

In your situation, if you want this promotion, you need to activate a PM account by August 13 to get 2GB promotion.  You could get a new temporary Public mobile phone number first.  Then you could transfer your Freedom mobile phone number afterwards via your self service account.  

 

Here is some more information:

Hello,

I have a prepaid number which I want to port in after three weeks from Freedom. I was curious if PM allows free number porting in after we setup online account registration or not? If porting option is only available at the time of account setup than I may need to loose my Freedom prepaid days to catch the 2GB free data bonus before August 13th. Otherwise if free porting in option is available later than I will do it after three weeks. Please advise.

Thanks


@shahestates 

Yes, you can port your number afterwards anytime.  No extra fee or charges.  

You can port over a number after account setup.

 

To change or transfer your number after activation, go to your Self Serve Account here and:

  • Select the “Plans and Add ons” tab
  • Click on “Change Phone Number”
  • Then, you can choose to select a new phone number or to transfer a wireless or wireline number from another provider.

Please feel free to PM me.

The experience of a Free SIM at Walmart might not be the best. There are other options for Free or 99 cent SIMS though. 

@shahestates  Yes, with the 2GB bonus offer - MONTHLY, I would choose that  instead of going to store for a free SIM

 

the SIM is $10, but DO NOT order from Public Mobile online, it will take long to arrive, like 3 weeks or more and you would miss the promotion.

 

You might want to check local kiosk, although they might no sell you the SIM alone if you don't activate with them.    If you have Amazon Prime membership, order there for $10 for it's 2 days delivery.

Not sure if the promo code is still working or if it will be working when you activate.
