Then once you have the plan, in your account on the right hand side their should be "change number" just port over your koodo number and you should be able to use the PM plan with your main cell number if thats what your wondering. Hope this helps and you can get the PM plan in time, goodluck!
Note: @Luddite please correct me if I was wrong and eleaborate, thank you. Your more of a bigger expert than I am.
Correct, but OP already activated on PM with a temporary number. @roniebanerjee What you can do now is that get a cheapest FM plan with a new number as @lammer03 suggested. You can port the FM number to your existing PM account before June 30th. Then send a private message to the mod and they will grant you the promo plan if everything else you followed is correct. However, since you activated PM sim on a new number, you are allowed to port-in/change only one number per 30 days. When you port in FM number to get the promo plan, you will not be able to request another port-in from koodo for 30 days. So, you will have to keep your koodo account active and port out to PM after 30 days. Lots of patient and cost involved, but if you think cost is not a problem, going on a route suggested above will cost you even more as you will be activating another PM account.
If this is hard to understand, let us know and i hope we can clear this up for you.

OMG i didn't realize freedom mobile in this context meant Wind; i thought it was the name of the plan!

You can try to private message the mods, but I am not too sure if you can switch from koodo to PM directly and get the plan, I think its only valid for FM customers. What you can do start an account with FM port over to PM and then port your Koodo number to PM after you activated the plan and account
P.S Nevermind, ignore this message you want to go into FM instead of going my bad, comprehend it the wrong way
