I'll be getting my iphone in a month (on a non-iphone plan). I have a couple of questions about adding data on Fido:

Are there any package deals where I can combine data with other options to save money?

For instance, I currently have call display, call forwarding, voicemail and I pay separately for texts. Does Fido still offer a plan like the poster above (500mb data, 10,000 text messages, caller id, visual voicemail) where I can combine those options?

I've poked around on their site but only see the 500 mb option for either $25 or $30.

hope the links help

if your going to pay like 15-20 for 500mb u might as well try to get the guy to get the 6gb data plan for $30

rogers/fido plans are all fuckin jokes the way they structure them, the features u want/would use are either not available, or are only packaged in higher priced deals

ie. i dont want this bullshit "visual voicemail" i phoned in and said all i want is like a tonne of txt msg's and caller ID, they tell me there is nothing cheaper then the iphone communication package which is $15 and includes like 3 things i dont even want/use

Mancini 01-23-2009 04:18 PM

The Rogers links only go to the home page. In any case I'm with Fido.

$15-20 for 500mb? Fido's pointless 2 MB plan starts at $15 and the 500 MB plan is $25. These also don't bundle any other options.

Anything more specific to Fido?

The 6gb for $30 dollar option was a promotion and isn't offered anymore. According to their reps, it's $30 dollars for 1 gb now.

^just like city fido now people are going to cry about not getting 6 gigs for 30 bucks.

I like my plan

city fido 40
voicemail, caller id, 1000 or 2500 txt msgs (can't remember) 15
6 gb data 30

85 plus tax no saf, 911, etc. I remember back in the days I used to have 3-400 bills from telus for just bullshit calling. I would probably be paying 1000+ if I was still with telus! fido does package shit together but they offer it so cheap that its worth it. For example I use visual voicemail all the time. I hate going through different messages to find important ones. This way I see who the person that left the message is and can delete it without even hearing what they have to say.

the only thing I hate about fido is no blackberrys!

Hondaracer 01-26-2009 04:49 PM

^ you having city fido and costing you 85 + tax makes me feel better lol

my plan is

300 weekday minutes
+50 bonus minutes each month
500 overtime minutes per year
Unlimited Incoming
My5
$15 iphone caller package
$30 6gig data

my plan has finally leveled out and is consistantly 90-$92

i'm fairly pleased

what do u have a problem with surfing RS?

mine seems to work perfect, even opening the little drop down user menu's etc. ?

Armind 01-26-2009 09:26 PM

^ I just like having a cleaner layout, making it easier to navigate rather then having to zoom in every page. I think we also need an RS icon so we could add it to our homescreen :D

how much data do you guys actually use? I'm always in places where there's wifi so the only time I'm actually using my data is when I'm out to look for directions or to check craigslist, ebay, hotmail but those barely use any data. I've only used about 30 mb this month. I'm happy just paying over $60 for my plan :)

Fafine 01-27-2009 06:05 PM

anyone here have an app called mafia live? if so add me up at 724-044-783

Hondaracer 01-28-2009 03:18 PM

I've used up just over 500MB this month, but yea 6GB comes in handy when you are traveling and tether to laptop.

Hit 1GB once, while doing a lot of Orb streaming.

Quick question. Does anyone know the price to buy the Iphone 3g at Rogers without a contract? So basically just buying the phone straight up. (sidenote: I'm already on a Rogers contract, but I just want the phone because I still have 2.2 years left.)

655 8gb and 755 16 gb
