Let's say my friend and I decide to go for one of the in-store promos.
1. My friend will sign-up using the referral code of an existing customer.
2. After that, I want to sign-up using my friend's referral code.
I believe with referral codes, there is a waiting period before customers will receive their code. Whereas with the old phone number referral, I could use his phone number to sign-up immediately.
Anyone know how long it takes for a new customer to receive their referral code now?

@yzhou2009 That would only work if the promo was online and in store. Once you create and log in to your account your referral code is available to you. In fact my last activation at London drugs on Sunday the salesman insisted that I register my self serve account and log in to make sure it was working and the passwords/Email was working.

It did happen before that the code was not generated at the account creation. That is very unlikely to happen but it still may. In that case it would be best to contact moderators and wait for resolution before creating the second account. But if you are under pressure to get the deal moderators can apply t the referral afterwords too.

After in store activation, your friend needs to use the link in the welcome email to create the self serve account and login. The referral code is located at the top right hand side of the overview page.

@LovesToPM as soon as they activate their new account and log in to their self serve they can see their own refferal code on the top right hand side of the overview page
