Posting for rebates on monthly plans

Villepaul

After reading, did I understand clearly that by posting/answering questions in this community that I can lower my monthly fee? If so, what's the rate, how much can I spam to receive any savings? 

Probably a loaded question but thanks for the time,

You probably won't want to spam though as they usually filter that out and may effect your ability 

to receive any rewards going forward. People who have tried to game the system by adding fake accounts to bravo or solution their real acccount or completely pointless, non-sensical redundant responses over and over have banned ppl from any rewards at all. Some are still around but will eventually get the same fate I am sure.

Yes, post more and you could earn more.

Bravoing a reply doesn't lower your bill.  It's also important to use those bravos for good quality posts.

Yes you will need to post and make recommendations/solutions to members with issues.

 

Drawback…give up your full time job and be on this Community to help out! 😉😁😂

@Villepaul- Only rewards will lower your monthly fee. You need to earn points to then convert into paying a renewal. And if you're intending to spam you will be shut down rapidly.

 

@hairbag1- It's the same marketing misinformation that they say for rewards.

You can only ever qualify for one (1) Community Reward in a 30-day period, and you must act in accordance with Community Terms of Service at all times. You can read our Community Terms of Service

@hairbag1    The 20 points/dollars are reserved for oracles only.  The maximum the rest of us can get is $15/points.

@hairbag1    I know you meant to say you could get 1-15 points as 20 points ($) is reserved for oracles only... 🙂

@Villepaul...

here's some light reading to help you figure how the PM Points program works.

https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/bc/get-help/articles/Joining-Public-Points

 

If you come into the Community Forum often, you'll see folks post questions that perhaps you can lend some advise to. Even just provide a Bravo to someone else's response that you find helpful too. You can also award someone a Solution that best answers your query when you post a question.

If someone posts a question that you feel confident in providing some answer or direction...just jump right in an give it a try. Who knows...you might even be awarded the Solution.

Best advise is to come here often, sit back and follow a discussion until you're confident you can contribute constructively.

Nobody here knows everything so we all help each other. That seems to be the philosophy here at PM and that keeps our costs down as no need for paid customer support answering the phone for those questions that we can help with.

Eventually you'll accumulate enough Points to apply against buying add-ons, phones or other swag. You can also use Points against your regular plan costs.

Eventually, you could get 1 - 20  15 Points awarded to your acct.   edit'd

HI @Villepaul   you are very correct, post, reply and bravos other will help you to lower the bill!!

 

But PM keeps the secret formula and no one can tell you how much participation is needed

 

But overall, it is easy to save $1 or $2 per month.  Maybe come here once or twice a week, answer couple questions, ask couple and bravos others

 

yes, you can earn $5 or $10 or even $15... but expect to be a full time decimated PM support staff to earn the $15 (LoL)

 

So, if you like helping others, yes, come and join us. the best rewards you get is the idea that you are helping others!!
