VIRGIN MOBILE LOVES MEMBERS WHO LOVE MOVIES!

TORONTO (ONTARIO) April 2, 2014

Mobile phones and movies have a questionable relationship thanks to a few in-movie talk and texters. But Virgin Mobile isn’t afraid to take center stage and state its love for movies and movie-lovers by offering a bucket-sized collection of Member Benefits for film buffs. Virgin Mobile Members get access to advance movie screenings, celebrity meet and greets and VIP access treats just by hooking up. Today, by popular demand, Virgin Mobile’s 2-FOR-1 partnership with Cineplex is back for a sequel. What has your phone done for you lately?
Starting April 2nd, 2014, Virgin Mobile Members can grab two Cineplex movie passes for the price of one, every two weeks while quantities last. The offer was test run back in December 2013, and given five star reviews from our Members. High redemption and social buzz proved that two is better than one, and inspired Virgin Mobile to team up with Cineplex again to bring back the buzz.
“Only Virgin Mobile Members can say their phone gets them double the fun at Cineplex,” said Joseph Ottorino, managing director, Virgin Mobile Canada. “We love offering Members awesome experiences. We’re thrilled to partner with Cineplex to bring back this popular program that gets our Members access to a fantastic range of movie offers.”
How does it work?
Virgin Mobile Members grab their unique promo code - available at virginmobile.ca/Cineplex - to redeem the 2-FOR-1 offer. Here’s the step-by-step to get the offer:
