Can you get a buddy pass on a ps?
Ricky,
Is the buddy pass a one time deal when applying for each of the cards or do we get a new one each year on renewal?
Never mind…I think I found the answer. Buddy Pass is awarded only on new applications, not renewals. An interesting note is that it states that you can only get a buddy pass from the same card type once every 12 months. Reading closer, the 12 months appears to start from when you last received your previous buddy pass. That could mean that your wait time to reapply could be longer than 12 months since the buddy pass isnt deposited into your aeroplan account right away. Im still waiting for mine and its been 2 months. So in essence, its 12 months from the day you received the buddy pass, not the card. Also of note, you’ll lose the buddy pass if you cancel the card that received it…Am i correct in the above??
thx
It’s a one-time deal upon signing up. You can get multiple by signing up for multiple cards, but you’re limited to a maximum of three (one each among core, premium, and small business cards) in a 12-month period.
