Problems Getting Referral Credit

[aml1025]

At first, VM's referral program was great, but in the past few months, it seems like every referral has been denied for one reason or another. The last credit I got (other than one for a phone in my own household) required several emails back and forth from both the person I referred and myself, repeating information until it was suddenly "approved."

Is anyone else having these issues? It's especially bad for me with some of the forum referrals, where I can't necessarily contact the other person to have them confirm their information. It makes me feel like VM is dangling the incentive in front of us, then refusing to follow through... and I hate that.

Yeah, not too sure about this, i don't have a lot of information in regards to this promo. Clearly this post was a little old, but seeing that no one replied, i figured i'd just chime in here and post a quote from the VM website.

Thanks for your interest in the Refer A Friend program. Unfortunately, after much thought, we’ve decided to close this program starting January 7, 2014.
No need to fret, we have tons of other great programs that you can read more about here. Stay tuned for updates and make sure to check out the Members Lounge for the latest fashion, movie, music and travel member benefits!

and you can find that quote on the virgin website in the members lounge.

sorry i couldn't be of more help, best of luck man!

Looks like that's the Canadian Virgin Mobile that closed their refer a friend program:
Refer a Friend - Virgin Mobile Canada

The US Virgin Mobile still offers $25 referrals:

Having previously lived in the Twin Cities, the rest of the country seems to think they are in Canada anyway.

Exactly. I was going to respond sooner, but it was so cold, my cell phone signal froze solid and I had to wait for the sled dogs to come with a WiFi hotspot
