I just renewed my contract and I got Unlimited talk and text as well as 10gigs of Data for 80$/month. Pretty happy with that deal.

Berz out.

That was the plan I had but I switched to my above post. Way better deal. I was paying 56$/m for 6 gigs data and not unlimited anytime.

^ I have same plan... m2m for over a year now
400 mins talk daytime canada-wide
unlim text/picture
unlim evenings/weekends @ 6
caller id
mini voicemail (3 limit?)
6 gb data

$60 I think? Gonna call in and see if I can get that offer. For you to be able to take that offer I assume you brought your own phone? No subsidized smart phones available with it

Not an issue as I bought an s6 from craigslist

Actually you can subsidize. I got a 6S Plus with the plan for a discount. My contract was up in December so I renewed and got the new phone. I chose the 6S plus over the regular 7.

I just upgraded at retention to the same plan. Fido roaming is standard now I guess ($5/day to use your same plan in states roaming max up to 10 days)... they changed $10/gb overage to $5/100mb which I don't think will be an issue with 10gb but I did go over 6gb a few times over the last year or so

Spotify was not included but I don't mind since I'm on a $30/year family plan

Voicemail not upgraded, still only mini voicemail (3 max)

Still m2m until I decide to get a phone at subsidized Pulse15 rate (usually half off on popular phones)

Thanks Berzerker :alonehappy:

Damn how did you score that? I can't even get 7gb out of Rogers unless I spend $95 bucks, I'd totally port over to Fido for that deal.

I've been a fido customer for 20 years lol

Berz out.

Glad I could help. I had them include spotify as well for free. I also had to shut my data off a couple times with the 6gig plan so when they offered me the 10gig for that price I jumped on it.

I been with them since High school. When they were like Fido xxx. Then they start giving out Nokia 3100 for free after 3 months. So I keep renewing my contract after every month just got a new phone lol. They went belly up and some other company bought them out.

The good old days. Now they won't even give you anything till you call in to cancel. Makes me wonder are they really just trying to push us who are on grandfater plan to their current shitty plan.

Good Old Days SeemsGood

What a shit show. I called Fido on the 16th to upgrade my plan and order a new phone. 2 weeks goes by and no phone. I call back on tuesday and there is no record of my order or my changed plan. What the actual fuck. So the hour I spent on the phone on the 16th never existed. So I go through the whole process again. Finally feel like they got it right. Get an email for confirmation of shipping of my phone and it's the wrong fucking phone being shipped. Says 32gig and not 64. Call Fido again today and ask what the fuck. Guy on phone says Yes I see that you ordered a 64 gig but the email does show a 32gig so "just wait and see"
So now it's already been 2 weeks since my initial phone call, still no phone, and the one I receive "could" be the wrong one. If it is, I'll have to mail it back, and then fucking wait again for them to reship my proper phone.

Fuuuuuu.

This is the first and only time I've ever had an issue and man are they making up for lost time.

Berz out.

Make sure you try to get a credit out of this.

Other day I went to fido. I have 1 fido account and 1 Rogers. I wanted to port from Rogers to fido to make 2 accounts. But she ported over and lost one of my fido accounts. So I was stuck their waiting for 3 hours!!! I had to go back 3 times. To get things fixed. In the end. I had to get 2 new numbers. Ughhh. But got 50 bucks credit out of it.

Yea I had the fucker put a note on my file that IF it's the wrong phone I want some sort of compensation.

Berz out.

Fuck Fido.

why?

by me switching 2 accounts from rogers to fido. i saved myself 70 bucks a month.. thats huge for me

They fucked me over with a bill. Got a free phone back then but never received it (was told they noted it but it wasn't). Asked what they can offer me since i've been with them for almost 15 years, nothing. No credits, wouldn't even waive that bs system access fee.

Now with PM, at least i get something after a year.

Since they had no record of my initial call I tried to scam that $40 4 gig plan to an additional line but they said it wasn't even an option in their system anymore lol

Berz out.

Anybody here have problems setting up their online accounts?

I called several times about the issue. Each and every time they try to solve it for me, they failed and said they will have to forward it to IT. They give me a case # and to check back a couple business days after. Few business days pass by and I call them referencing the case #s that I got. CSR tells me theres no history of it and its back to square 1 again.

Seriously, WTF?!

seems like nothing has changed since the last time i dealt with fido retentions 5 yrs ago lol

i set mine up about 30 minutes ago. went smoothly

lol doesnt hurt to try. that was the plan i switched over for.
$40 4 gig. hell yah.

i feel like Public Mobile really shook things up

Got my $80 pulse plan activated properly. Had it noted, and took ref number just in case

Can't you just go in person and get phone/contract renewal? Instant phone and no mess ups

Just renewed my $56 plan for another 2 years. The person at the kiosk (Costco) said as of last week, fido is letting people with fido dollars, apply them to their bill. I haven't confirmed with fido yet but it'd be great if I can use them up before they expire.

Also, the phone I got was $100 (subsidized) and they gave me $100 in GC's to pay for it, so I didn't even have to use my Fido Dollars.

I have 58 fido dollars. What can I spend it on? Also they don't give out fido dollars anymore right?

Before this news, they were only redeemable for hardware or travel packs.
