I'm with Rogers, and I know when I ordered my iPhone 4 through retentions, the new three year contract started on that day.

But my brother in law ordered his iPhone 4 through Fido retentions a few days ago, and for whatever reason his new three year plan is added to his existing contract, not replacing it. So essentially his contract now ends in 2014.

Is that normal or Fido, or is that strange?
Rogers you start a new 3 year term. It's normal for Fido. Fido it extends your existing contract so it starts when your current contract ends.

If you were going to renew you might as well have taken the iphone 4, selling one is easy as fuck and there would be an easy $500 in your pocket at least so free year of phone service practically.

And knowing fido the iphone is probably the most desirable thing that you can get for fido dollars up to this day and for years to come lol

did so much shit in the past 2 hours

I transfered my account over to my dads name so i can use his fido dollars when i HUP, so i called fido and asked for that and waited for confirmation. Then i called on behalf of my dad and approved it and i called retention since the 6gb plan ends tomorrow. The csr was really nice and set a request for me so that i could be an exception and be able to get that when i hup which is jan 5th (earliest)

I wanted to jump the gun and resign away but whatever, not in a rush. So I kinda failed and kinda succeeded. Pretty sure you guys know this but I asked the CSR and the word is that the white iPhone is rumored to come in December. I also asked about the price but he wasn't sure about that.

just FYI guys, theres only 32GB in stock right now.

is this any good? or should i try harder in a couple of days before i renew my contract. cause they put a note on my acct right now, and it is standing as a pending offer, all i have to do is just call in and accept the pending offer.
called back today and bascially got the same offer, all they changed was 1000 fido to fido mins, to unlimited fido - fido for the same price.

It was my first time calling and haggling with 'em.

I realized that I wasn't stern enough. Time to step it up next time I call.

Any tips?

They're both the same plan, just the 2nd one has data added.
$30 for 6g just like anybody else without a retention plan.
