1 Gb Referral "Welcome Data" bonus SCAM??

[MarkTo]

I just activated an account as well (Dec 19,2017) with the 1GB bonus stated at checkout.  Unfortunately I did not know that this was a previous limited time promo and activated the account solely based on the fact that I would be getting 1GB of data. 

I hope that this can be resolved by either adding the 1GB of data to my account or canceling and refunding my activation.  Public mobile should update their check out process if they do not offer the 1GB bonus any longer.

I got my 1 Gb add on bonus this morning after I sent the moderators a private message yesterday! Public Mobile is awesome!

Mod members are alway there to provide quick and reliable help to users. That's why I like pm.

This also happened to me as well. I activiated my Public Mobile account on December 3, 2017, and during the checkout process, it says I am supposed to get a Welcome 1GB data bonus for my plan. I never received the extra 1 GB of data, but I never knew Public Mobile has to honor it. I just sent the moderators a private message and see how it goes. 

Thank you all for this information:)

Nice to know that generosity remains a constant, along with the dated advertisements, self serve portal bugs...

Honor it or delete it, I can’t believe it’s been left up there. IMHO the customer should get the data.

If Public Mobile adheres to the scan code of practice that merchants use, the one gig would be honored as advertised.  @MarkTo, if your discussions with the moderator team does not yield an amicable outcome, you have the right to seek further redress via the CCTS.  You have to try and work things out with the carrier before taking this step.  Your case will not be heard otherwise.

If it shows in the process PM should have to honor it.  They have had enough time to fix the issue. And this not the first time this has been brought up since Nov 20.

Good luck.
