The Unofficial Speak Out Wireless Canada Consumer Page - Topic: $25 free airtime https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/7-eleven-rates-and-plans/25-free-airtime/ Simple:Press Version 5.7.5.3 Jollywa on $25 free airtime https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/7-eleven-rates-and-plans/25-free-airtime/#p16990 7-Eleven Rates and Plans https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/7-eleven-rates-and-plans/25-free-airtime/#p16990 I purchased before May 31 but only activated this week, after reading about the June 15 deadline on here. I checked my balance before I activated and then discovered like some others that I only received $100 air time credit. I called the Customer Service number and they put the extra $25 on right away. I guess it was a good thing I checked my balance first.

Probably they just never bothered to spend the time and money to change the automated system to accept the post dated vouchers, and figured they would just let customer service handle the handful of people that complained. Problem is the neglected to let the customer service people about it.

I find it odd that Speakout doesn't advertise very well. I found out about this promotion from here, and from the small banner on their site. But, how many of their subscribers actually visit their site? Probably very few. At the downtown Toronto location that I buy my vouchers from, there was absolutely no mention of the promotion.

They're not nearly as bad as the big two, lol. Click on the image to zoom in and see the June 15 deadline.

That's not good at all... I guess they are starting playing tricks on their customers (e.g. disappearing airtime, the 25% bonus and who knows what) to get more profits. This is not a good business practise at all. Too bad....

A word to anyone calling in..the first call I made the rep was adamant that the bonus period was over. I was telling her that the web site clearly stated that the bonus ran til mid Jun and she argued that it was a mistake and suggested I call the Petro Canada head office (in charge of advertising) and complain to them. I stood my ground and insisted on having a supervisor call me. Hopefully anyone calling now won't have to go thru all that...

Short the actual marketing and only give the complainers what they are entitled to. A lot of profit in all those ignorant or non-complaining Canadian customers. Business ethics out the window.

Hopefully anyone else that is entitled, and doesn't get it, will look to these forums and know to call in to support.
Thanks for the help!

But it's not much good if I can't find somebody to complain to...

I'm going to call back and try and speak to a supervisor since I think I'm entitled to the 25% bonus according to the way the promotion reads...

The way I read the promotion, you buy the airtime by May 31st, but could apply it until mid June with the bonus. I am going to complain.
