free sim card

 If purchase the plan in Wal-Mart, do we still receive free sim card?

All with the flash sale. Woohoo.

I just went to Walmart to activate a Public Mobile sim card today.  They gave me the sim card free, I used a referral code from a friend to get $10 credit, I registered for autopay to get $2 credit, and I ported another number when I got home.  All the promotions still work the same.

@bianhua1988 if you have a friend with public mobile use their number as a referal and you will get a $10 account credit. Basically compensates for the cost of the sim card.

Thanks for all the info above. I will ask them tomorrow.

It could be offered by Walmart itself not from public mobile for this week-end....just phone before to go there.

---

@Lieux I don't believe that Walmart run specials on the SIM cards; when you see a promo like the one last wekeend, they are run by Public Mobile not by Walmart.

---

Yes they did some weekends last March. Some customers have this promotion directly by Walmart in store with activation.

---

I don't doubt that some customers did get free sim cards, but as this was never advertised for in-store activations, they don't even really have to do it. As such, the customer shouldn't expect it.

The official price is $10, even if you activate there.  There is currently no set in-store promotion for free sim cards, although some locations might do it to close the sale/activation.
