Due to my recent experience with Freedompop, I am NO LONGER RECOMMENDING this company. Mad

The company started off with potential but after many sleazy experiences I can definitively say that they are acting in bad faith and not to be trusted.
Please do your own due diligence but my $0.02 is certainly,
STAY AWAY! DO NOT TRY.



P.S.- Early adopters who deposited should probably contact them about a refund. They screwed us. https://slickdeals.net/f/5276432-freedompop-friends?p=79497123#post79497123

There is no need to post in the thread/comments unless you want to, just follow these steps.

#1. Login to freedompop account, and select the "Earn & Share" Tab.

#2. COPY AND PASTE users from below, and select "Invite Friends"
As of , you can only paste 300 characters at a time, so you'll have to spend a few minutes cutting & pasting sections of the list.

#3. Login to slickdeals and Click 'Edit Contents' on the bottom of this wiki, and add your email address to the TOP of this list
Note: For some reason not everyone has access to edit, if you can't, don't worry, you'll most likely get enough friends from step #2. Please don't ask other people to add you to this list unless they plan to remove you later. You are welcome to post your email address in the thread itself asking people to add you as a friend, then edit your post later if you don't want your email address to remain public.



#4. Accept all the friend invites on freedompop (from the 'Invite Friends' subtab under Earn & Share), and when you are satisfied with your number of friends remove yourself from the list. Having more than 10 friends on your account will help you keep your 500 Mb monthly data if someone on your list deactivates their account. You can't have too many friends. If your number of active friends drops below 10, you won't get your full 500mb bonus

Under no circumstances you are obligated to send data to your new friends.

If you aren't going to check your account to accept more friends, please REMOVE YOUR EMAIL FROM THIS LIST so that new people won't waste their time sending you friend invites, especially since we can't just paste the whole list at once anymore, and to avoid your risk of receiving spam from having your email address posted publicly.

I was thinking this as well. I believe I've added around 50something. Oddly (and awesomely) I didn't pay for a plan at all yet it shows that I've earned .98GB and I get 500MB free so according to them total=1.46GB I thought it would be 1GB. Not complaining though. Also side note I ordered it late last night and it shipped out this afternoon!!! Excited!
Oddly enough I only have 12 friends so far and I'm already at 630 MB of data added. It says 120 added from friends, but It gave me an extra 510 MB of data. Weird? I'm hoping my account really has the data and isn't going to charge me an extra amount when I go past 620 MB of data.

The wiki is here, https://slickdeals.net/f/5276432-FreedomPop-Friends?v=1&p=53620526#edit53620526
I see a "Edit Contents" link at the top-right of that post. Not sure if it is restricted but there is where you would edit it.

Same here, 50 friends added and I have .98GB earned for a total of 1.46GB per month.

These guys are really more like alpha than beta.

Before I add all these contacts to my gmail account, is there a way to pick which contacts get imported into Freedompop's system? I don't necessarily want to send freedompop spam to all of my pre-existing contacts.

EDIT: in case someone else reads this that hasn't yet gone through the process: yes, once you import your contacts in the freedompop page, you can manually check/uncheck which ones you want to "connect" to.

Looks like haroonie's list is blank...
I made a template myself! I hope you have excel and know basic excel knowledge.

(1) Download yahoo_ab.xls file
(2) Copy and paste list of email (grouped by email provide) into respective cells
(3) Click first cell directly to right of first cell of each grouped list (has a Excel comment) and drag down to match the height of list to it's immediate left
(4) Delete any spaces in newly populated emails!
(5) Export file as yahoo_ab.csv
(7) Import into Yahoo Mail [yahoo.com].

Is there no limit on how many gigabytes you can earn? My account says I've earned 14.7 GB of free data.

Thanks for taking the time to write that wave

To export the file, I initially tried to add ".csv" to the actual excel file laugh out loud

Took me a while to figure out that I was supposed to click "save as" and selec csv from the drop down menu Stick Out Tongue
