i'm jelly of darthwilli's $45 plan with 6gb data. pretty damn sure they won't ever offer me that though..

perhaps the 6gb option is a possibility..

dyan 10-28-2011 12:56 AM

Same here. You got a better offer than me.. the rep said that was the best they could do with a 6gb data plan :okay:

spoon.ek9 10-28-2011 12:51 PM

i guess i'll call them back and accept the offer then. i'm gonna ask about the 6gb option though, see if it exists for only $5 more.

Because that won't harm the environment.

no unlimited nights and weekend...hardly a deal try calling again

spoon.ek9 11-04-2011 12:04 PM

i know... this didn't seem like a deal at all. i even stated what another person here got for $55 and she said it might be something that's no longer offered. bitch, it was 2 weeks ago! :fuckthatshit:

dyan 11-04-2011 12:06 PM

Umm Spoon.. i think you got the better end of the deal.

You have unlimited incoming calls. On weekends, just tell that person to call you instead lol. I tried to get that but the rep said that its worth $15.. :okay:

spoon.ek9 11-04-2011 12:10 PM

well the thing is, i don't really need the 6gb. i just wanted to know what kind of offer they would give me. also, i asked if i could adjust my plan to have this 6gb offer after signing for the 500mb offer and she said yes. <--- most important part in case i keep the ip4s

Ronin 11-04-2011 11:46 PM

So I called and they gave me a slight discount.

400 daytime
Unlimited W/E 5pm
Unlimited incoming
Fido-to-Fido
CID, VM
2500 texts
6GB data

$52.50 a month.

dyan 11-04-2011 11:48 PM

What did you complain about? i have similar plan but 58..

On a side note: how long have you been with them for?

Ronin 11-05-2011 12:02 AM

Over 10 years.

Nothing. I just told them to give me a cheaper rate.

Groot 11-05-2011 12:09 AM

when i went to activate my iphone at apple store, the employee called fido to activate it and the csr told him that my plan was $55 before tax but i was given $50 before tax...then after some talking the csr says IT IS $50 cause i have a $5 credit but it expires next october? wtf fido....keep getting fucked over and over again...if i knew this was gonna happen i would've switched to mobilicity.

Well, if your plan is over next october (1 more year on contract), I can see why the credit is only there for another year. However, prior to your HUP, you should've negotiated a better plan as well as locking in whatever credits you have.

Hopefully you'll be able to resolve this...

ikki 11-05-2011 12:32 AM

Ya, Fido can't offer better deal even I had been with them for so long.. so I switched to mobilicity too.. so far, I'm happy with mobilicity, no drop call , just no reception inside concrete building / underground parking.. other than that.. their voice + data are ok . hopefully they will improve the reception inside building and expand its coverage zone in the future.

wait... so you have to add $10 more on top of the 6gb data to have bbm? thats bull shit cuz i have the 6gb and when i told them im using a blackberry now. they changed and said okay, because i have the 6gb data plan, i have unlimited bbm and social networking.

spoon.ek9 11-05-2011 06:25 PM

yeah she said in order to get free bbm, you have to use city fido as part of your plan. she told me city fido + 6gb was going to be $62 + tax :fuckthatshit:

Hmmm I can only see this happening if the "new" plan had credits slated on for one year. If that is the case, I don't see any "wrong doing" perse.

spoon.ek9 11-07-2011 01:15 PM

so i ended up signing the $50 plan i was offered earlier. meh.

tubbyboi 11-08-2011 07:40 AM

^^ Hey spoon.

The rep offered you the $30Basic plan for you're voice on that's on the website// 200mins + unlimited incoming + Unl EW 5pm + unl text and a $30Retention Value Pack // 500MB + CD + VM + Unl text // picture/vid msg + bonus of 50mins x 36months. So technically it comes to $60 but because that value pack they added on for ya already had unlimited msging as well, its automatically discounted to $55 a month, and the rep was nice enough to add another $5Credit for the duration of you're contract making it $50.

TBH it's gonna be as good as it gets as there's no way they can send you out the iphone4s for any cheaper.

If you get you're bill, i would call back and get the Hardware Upgrade Fee Waived (assuming the first representative never told you about it. If they didnt document that they told you, fido usually waives it for the customer but if its been documented that they have allowed you to know, then they prob wont as they know you're bluffin to cancel)
Hope that helps. :)

stuff99 11-08-2011 10:39 AM

So is Fido offering retention plans with 6GB now? I called two weeks ago and they said they didnt have anything like that...best thing they could offer is 500mb.

tubbyboi 11-08-2011 02:53 PM

Yes. Fido still offers the 6GB for $30. The only thing is that you either already have to have a data commitment or you would have to resign you're commitment for another 2-3yrs. They do not have the option just to add it as a month to month though. But if you're already under a data commitment, it could just replace you're current data contract with the 6GB so ur commitment doesn't change
