Won't resolve anything. It's part of the Koodo game.

So are they suggesting that they purposely queue up payments in advance and put an 8 week clock on the payout? I can inquire about the self referrals at least. I think I know who I am.

If the payment system was automatically queued up with an 8 week count down clock, it would work for me. It is the lack of repeatability that has me concerned.

But during the PM to Koodo migration period, IIRC. I read something that the bill credit may take 8 - 12 week because of number of referrals
Have too many phones... This is how I limit my monthly phone payment.

It's the inconsistency of result that concerns me. Some seem to receive payout faster. It would be nice to know how they progress from confirmation email that a referral is approved to actual payment. I know the queue time is artificial because there's really no need to wait 8 or 12 weeks to complete the payout.

Here is another one for you guys. I received an email that a $100 credit was added to my account on April 27 for $100. That is $50 from getting a referral from someone, and another $50 from having a family member refer me. I signed up with someone's link on Feb 25. A family member signed up through my link on March 20.

I finally got something. About an hour ago, I got an email from the refer a friend elf that a $100 credit has been awarded. Looking at the number to which this is awarded, it comes from a self referral for the last line that I set up in my account on March 15. The line that did the referring did not get the credit yet. It looks like these guys are all over the map here. They don't assign credits in paired fashion where both parties in a referral get credited at the same time. Maybe it is just me, but I thought it would make sense to do the credits in pairs rather than separate the two and cause double the amount of effort. It is definitely not first come, first serve. My first line is still shut out of any rewards.

I got a $25 credit from a friend towards the end of the PM promotion. I got the $25 credit to my account about a week before the referrer got the $25 credit on her account even though we both got the "4 to 8 weeks" email on the same day.

I think I might need to rattle their cage next week if the referrals from my first line isn't paid out by then. I will be past the 8 week mark and a bill payment is coming up. Although I do recall also mention of up to 12 weeks, the approval email only refers to 8 weeks.

If you cancel the referred line within 90 days, Koodo reserves the right to claw back the referral credits.

Credit is paid out within eight weeks.

I checked my account this morning and another $100 has been added. However, I have not received any emails about the credit and so I have idea which referral is being paid out. I suspect it is another $100 single referral. My first referrals are likely still unpaid. I just need Koodo to open the tap a little more and keep it going.

My anxiety disorder got the better of me today. I sent them a query about why my payout is dragging so long. A couple of my referrals from my first line received their payout but I haven't. I am definitely full of FOMO at this point.

In my case, my first verified referral was completed on March 9 with others following at various times in March and early April. So far, I haven't got any payouts. I know that officially, there is still some time to 8 weeks but not a whole lot. I have consulted with the referral department a couple of times but they are as friendly as a pit bull. It is it just FOMO on my part or others have similar experiences.
I received my entire $300 payout all at once, just before my second Koodo bill (new account, PM migration). The beginning of April. I only have one line.

When you say March 1, is that the day you put in the final step or the day they approved the referral?
