Hello all. I recently referred a friend to sl. I went through the referal portion of the site to get the L$2000 that is offered. My friend bought a premium membership but I haven't gotten my money. Do I need to do anything else? Any ideas?

I don't think you get the referral fee until after they have been billed after their first 30 days as premium. Sometimes, it takes longer than that.

¹Referees must be billed successfully for two billing cycles in order for the referrer to receive credit. Referral credits are then given according to the following schedule:

1. L$500 at the beginning of the referree's second billing cycle, approximately 31-35 days after they upgrade.
2. L$500 one month after the first credt.
3. L$1000 one month after the second credit.

Please note, Linden Lab reserves the right to change the terms of this program with or without notice.

I'm curious now, if they chose annual billing, does that mean you have to wait two years? :D

I would assume a yearly membership would automatically generate the refferal bonus and monthly like mentioned would require the 2 month period. I know I keep getting paid for some I've brought in and its always a pleasant suprise :-).
