According to one of the posters here, the promotion seems to be bonus air time for anyone topping up $50 during the month of May, using a slip bought in May or earlier (as long as still valid).

Is there anybody have Roger Barratt email so I can complain. I call 611 and they cannot help

Why not? Call up SpeakOut Customer Service, explain the situation, and see what they can do. It would help if you still have the slip with the airtime purchase and date.

I have added airtime $50 which i purchased on May 2008. I forgot to add it until June 2. There is no bonus mins. Can I complain? there is no where they said I have to add it by May in order to get the bonus.

I'm so annoyed they don't offer something similiar like this.
I wanted to buy 2 vouchers for myself and somebody else if they would've give a phone free (screw the phone, I JUST NEED THE SIM!)
So at least give a free sim for 100$, the sim costs what, 5$ to create a new one?

Two of my co-workers and I missed out last time around and we're staying on our old cell plans until we can find another deal like this.

Please let me know if you've heard anything!!

(Nokia)

Do they also work with Fido? (Sony Erricson) If not, how much is to decode them?

Thanks

I don't need any minutes right now. If i buy the $50 voucher in May can i redeem it a month from now and get $60?
Thanks

It's best to check with 7-11 customer service, but I strongly suspect the answer is NO. The bonus minutes are given to you when you add the money to your account, not when you buy the airtime. If you wait until next month, I don't think you will get your bonus airtime.

I have done the reverse - I bought $100 of airtime to get the free phone promotion, but did not need to add the money to the account until two months later (sad but true the initial $5 lasted me 2 months). It turned out that I got a bonus $20 of airtime because that was the promotion in effect at the time. Double bonus!

Yup, worked like that for me too.

I bought two $50 airtime vouchers yesterday, for two different Speakout phones. When I added them, they both registered as $60 in airtime.

I see Petro Canada has updated their site today. They are now selling the Nokia 1208 for $49. Also they are offering up to 100 minutes if you buy the 2630 or 2760 model. Not sure what up to means.
A separate thread for PC sounds like a wonderful idea!
I personally have been waiting for the SO deal which didn't materialize so I think I will be going to PC, $49 seems like a pretty good deal for your basic phone (and sim).

Edit by admin: discussion moved to first post in the new Petro Canada forum

Someone on this forum bought a $50 card and then got $60 credited to her account.

You can call Speakout just to be 100% positive.

In regards to asking 7-11 staff about the promotion, you don't have to worry about that.

Just buy a $50 card, and when you activate it you'll get a credit of $60.

I'm beginning to think this site should cover both Petro Canada and 7-Eleven. Got any suggestions on the format? I'm not a Petro Canada customer so maybe I should just create a separate Petro Canada forum? Or does anybody want to become the unofficial Petro Canada consumer representative (I'm not even sure what I mean by that)?

I think this is a great idea too. My suggestion is just to add one new forum - Petro Canada Rates and Plans - and rename the existing one to 7-11 Rates and Plans. The other forums are either not applicable (e.g Petro Canada in other countries) or apply to both. It would be really great to set up one or two sticky postings (closed to prevent replies) at the top of the 7-11 and Petro Canada forums as quick faq's to describe the difference between the two.

I got my PC phone free using my petro-points, and I bought a 7-11 phone (using the free phone promo) for my daughter. The only difference I notice now is that I pay $20 every 6 months for the PC phone, and $25 once a year for the 7-11 phone. They are both great, and so similar that I think the PC forum will be really easy to administer.

I was just thinking the same thing! Since the programs seem to have so much in common, it seems like a natural to combine. I am new to both - had planned to buy 2 SO phones in Feb when they were gonna be free with airtime, and then in May... finally decided to bite the bullet. Got a Nokia 1600 last week on SO planning to buy a new unlocked snazzy phone. But honestly, the 1600 is pretty nice! Basic, but decent. Today I stopped by the PetroCan and got their base phone. Now I figure I'm set to take advantage of any upcoming promos from either one!
