Is there any payback if I recruited a friend was activated?

kin2513

As a apprentice recruiter, I understand that I will get £5 if he 2nd top-up and the other £5 if he 3rd top-up. But how about the 1st top up when he activated his sim card? Will I get £5 payback?

Hiya
Im afraid you get nothing for the first topup to activate the sim. Now you are a super recruiter.
Only 2nd and 3rd top ups.

kin2513 I’m pretty sure you get £5 free credit as an apprentice matey

First off, the £5 credit should be desribed as BONUS credit, never as free credit. Calling it bonus credit makes it clearer that a payment must be made before receiving the credit. Describing it as free credit gives people the wrong impression that there’s credit already on the sim, so they expect to be able to spend that credit without needing to pay anything.

Secondly, its the person activating the sim that gets the £5 bonus. Super recruiters don’t normally (except in very occasional promotions) get anything for activation, only if and when the member buys their second and third credits or goodybags.

No, it’s £5 bonus credit that the recipient first has to pay at least £6 to receive.

It would only be truthfullyfree credit if the recipient could receive it without making any payment.

Thank You harrrrrry for clarifying this point. Indeed, it is a valuable distinction to know both for recruiters and for those receiving the cards. Otherwise the formers might end up receiving a number of complains or even having to waste their time contacting giffgaff and back and forward with their recruited people. The laters might end up distrusting giffgaff or their recruiters or both and even discarding the SIM altogether when they don’t see the promised reward.
