I have the $55 retention plan with $5 credit.
3GB
200 wd
LD Canada wide
World text
CID/VM/Circle
I'm due in about 4 months and already using an unlocked phone.
How should I approach it? At the end I want to keep it status quo and get a subsidized iphone 6.

Do you guys know if I can sign a 2 yr contract to get the s6 with my old smart plan. Instead of their stupid plans now. Will they force you to change if I want a new phone

Anyone ever get free data from Fido? Randomly got a text from Fido saying that I'm gonna get an extra 1GB of data each month for a year as long as I keep paying by the month or if I resign a contract. My contract is already over btw. Rather they offer me free caller ID so I can pay less as I already have 6GB of data.

Renewed a couple months ago. Took them a few tries but eventually they gave me a plan that I was happy with.
6GB
1000 weekday minutes
Unlimited circle calling (how does this even work anymore?)
Unlimited weekends 5pm
Unlimited Canada LD
Unlimited worldwide text/pic/video
CID
Voicemail
$65 a month...BUT...they credited my account $240, waived fees, and gave me $100 credit towards a phone. Originally they were going to use my Fido dollars to pay for a phone but I keep that $100 too. "For next time..." they said.
So that's basically a $10 bill credit each month for 24 months so my bill is $55. My invoice for next month is $-90.87  TL;DR: $65 a month - $10 bill credit = $55 + tax a month for voice + text + 6GB + free phone.
Fido customer since ~1997.

I'm paying $60 a month for essentially a similar deal.
Difference is I'm getting unlimited local calling.
Circle calling is unlimited calls to other Fido users on the same account.

I got tired of Fido. Some people here have been lucky with decent retention plans...Most have not in the last year, regardless of whether they're happy or a not. A quick browse through the history of this thread will show you what REAL retention plans were like.

$65/mo... my $10 credit expired last summer. I'm on m2m now. I work up North in FSJ. Fido is great in the city but I lose connection or very weak everywhere else.

They told me I could only get the s6 with the max plan so I ditched my smart plan with 3gb internet unlimited minutes etc. for $65. the max plan i have only has 250 mins and 1 gb i pay 55$ >__> but i go over my internet by almost 2gb so my bill is like $90 every month FFS
I tried calling in and they can't do anything about it other than change my plan to another max plan which is even more expensive. whack af.
Pretty stupid of me to be in a rush to get the s6 with a shitty plan

They're using rogers service as well so its indirectly helping them out lol. If you use a lot of data then they might not be best for you. I would look at mobi/wind. If you are just using it primarily for voice then their plans are very competetive
I suggest look at their site here: Rate Plans | Cityfone Cell Phones

Other than the 50% off for 3 months what's the appeal? The plans don't really look much better than what Fido has.
