I'm in Lindsay, anyone know besides Canadian Tire where to buy vouchers?

@bullcrap1  The best place in a smaller town is probably your local Shell station. They usually have lots of different voucher amounts and are loadable almost instantly thru 611 or logging into your account.

I have not heard about payment vouchers. 1.You make a payment. 2. Go to buy add one. 3. Use your add on. Nothing is done automatically except your auto payment. You pay first, then assign the money to purchase add one like extra data.

This is pretty much it, I dump money in the account every three months to cover the next period. I like it that way. It kind of sad that those three months plan are gone.

I put my postal code in the message portion but the 5130 is not a full number so the message was not delivered.  Help!

[MCCAROLD]

What is the number that I text my postal code to in order to get the retailers to buy the payment vouchers? Thank you.

Why would Payment Vouchers include the AutoPay Reward?

I know that, yes, they can be used together. But they're based on different modes of payment, no reason for PM to assume they'll be combined when assigning the denominations.

I think they're just legacy amounts designed around long-discontinued plan prices.

Besides, as long as you have to keep buying oddball amounts you always end up with extra funds in your account balance... which you're unlikely to walk away from. You might see a killer from from the Competition but it doesn't seem as great a deal when you've already sunk $38 (plus Rewards) towards your next $45 phone bill.

Is that not obvious? I'm sure lots of people want the $2 reward but choose not to use their credit card for renewal. It could be over the limit, insufficient funds, using it for a 0% interest balance transfer or "borrowed" from a friend or family member for set up and autopay but not for payments.

Or it's used for emergencies only, they run a cash business or don't want a paper trail...many reasons. You switch to save money so the bigger question would be if you can set up auto pay why wouldn't you to save $2/$24 +tax per year. That's a nice bottle of wine or a bottle of vodka.....

I'm pretty sure all post offices also sell vouchers, hope that helps have a great day. ☺

[darlicious]

The odd number amounts i. e. $43 or $18 is from previous plans and are still grandfathered in for users who don't want to choose a newly available plan. They are the plan cost minus the auto pay reward. $45-2 =$43.

You can buy them online directly from your PM Self-Serve... although the only forms of accepted payment are credit card, Visa bank card, or other payment vouchers... and if you've already got credit card then you might as well claim the ($2 per month) AutoPay Reward for it.

You can buy PM payment vouchers in BC at Shoppers Drug Mart, Walmart, Canadian Tire, and a variety of cellphone boutiques or gas stations. Maybe also places like Money Mart. If you have native status then you can avoid paying tax when purchasing from a vendor on reservation land. 

I buy mine at Canadian Tire because why not use their stupid play money to absorb the taxes, and it all adds up (to a lot free voucher, sometimes) after shopping for enough stuff.

FYI Shoppers Drug Mart is Pharmaprix in Quebec. I had good luck getting cards there, and at Walmart. They do offer weird numbers at Walmart lately like a $43 card. I wonder why.

---

I'm not sure what the tax is in Quebec.. but if the $43 is a upc code for scanning the extra is for taxes generally. Nice to know pharmaprix is shoppers I was wondering what it was called there.

---

No the tax is on top I knew because that the card I got. They also sell a $18 card. I only seen those cards at walmart.

Note: it does state it can up to 24 hours to be valid. I tried a couple hours later but the wrong number in and then noticed the 24 hr warning. Tried about 6 hours later and it worked. Also London drugs have scanning vouchers for those who want to activate an account. You could probably load your account in store just not 100% sure how that works.

[darlicious]

Canadian Tire for sure just look for the gift card display grab a display brochure and bring it to customer service and they will scan $5, $20 or $40 from payment cards onto a voucher for you. Make sure you enter the 12 digit redemption # onto your account. Not the voucher#. So far I have not located them at my local shoppers drug mart or no frills but I'm keeping my eye out for them now. Btw...you cannot use or receive cdn tire points on them. Although I have read on the community that you can buy them with cdn tire gift cards so you can keep an eye out for gift card promotions. Recently at shoppers drug mart they offered: buy $300 in cdn tire gift cards receive a free $25 gift card. That saves 8%.

@Shakty Do be careful of where you get the vouchers. As someone mentioned in this community that the PIN is not working.

That's recharge.com.

If a store sells any gift cards AND they have that little terminal pinpad thingy then they should be able to sell a voucher that they print out of that pinpad.

If a store sells vouchers through their own system, then from a couple I've checked...they don't sell PM. But please do report any successes.
