you do not have to renew your voice agreement, all you have to do is sign a new agreement just on the data portion of your plan. i just called in today and did so, here's the details...
current voice plan under agreement from nov 2008 - nov 2011
current data plan without agreement
new data plan added ($30, 6gb) under agreement from jun 2009 - jun 2012
voice plan agreement remains unchanged
also i asked about my options on getting a new iphone 3g s, i currently have 3 lines with fido, 2 with data and 1 without. one the 1 without the contract is open for renewal but i was told that data is mandatory to get an iphone 3g s at the subsidized price under a new agreement. if you dont want data then you have to pay full price for the handset (thumbs down) but you dont have to sign a new agreement (thumbs up). dude wouldnt release the pricing, he said to call back on june 19 for that info.

6gb of data for $30 is acutally a good, it is virtually unlimited data, the only way i see someone chewing through that is with tethering.
512mb of data is sufficient for most iphone users, myself i only go through 100-400mb per month. i rip off is that there is no affordable 512mb or 1gb data plan. you can get 6gb for $30 so you should be able to get 1gb for $10.
if these fuckers thought like that they almost every one of their clients would have 1gb data plans at $10 a pop. instead they ransom you with the iphone 3g S and make it mandatory to get a data plan. who in their right mind is going to pay $25 for 500mb when you can get 6gb for $30? there is no affordable data plan, i have the 6gb and it is great but i am not tethering right now and its a fucking waste. shit i could live with even 512mb if it was cheaper.

It is not a new line.

the 6gb data plan from fido/rogers is a promo and a 3 year commitment to the service is mandatory. if you choose to cancel the service before then there is a $100 ECF.

Most likely they renewed your data contract from that day forwards.

Spoke with rogers, my blackberry was eligible for the 6gb plan, so I jumped all over it like a fat kid on doughnuts.

Im currently using a non-NAM N96 with HSDPA 900 / 2100,
Will I still be able to add the plan?
Or will they tell me that im not using a 3G compatible phone and not let me get this plan?

Tethering isn't allowed any more and that blows chunks. I am not happy.

It is not. I have the 6GB plan and it's no longer allowed. That's what I've been shown from Rogers. Only allowed for iPhones. Unless you know something that I don't...

I gave in and got the plan. Lol.
They gave it to me for 25/month for 6gb on a 3 year agreement.
