Can't even activate the SIM card in store because my S7 sim tray slot is damaged...otherwise I'd jump.

Koflach 12-14-2017 04:59 PM

is this plan for both rogers and fido?

Verdasco 12-14-2017 05:49 PM

called koodo

on hold for 20 mins to get through a rep

fucker only gives me 7gb for $60



ya im switching tmr for rogers or fido with their 10gb $60 plan

Think lots of carrier will do damage control and offer competing offers tomorrow so easy on those horses.

Its not bad within vancouver. My buddies don't have a problem using it. Only thing is it gets a bit spotty in some concrete buildings.
Speed test around downtown and metro. Freedom was either the same or faster then fido+rogers (this was tested a month ago)

Are you sure? I "had" that $40 plan.. but apparently they just jacked the price up to $45 for me. I didn't notice till my friend pointed it out to me lol

so apparently bell has the same plan but the 10gb would be permanent rather than the 5gb bonus ending in 2 years. anyone know how i could hop on the bell plan as a bell customer already?

J-Chow 12-15-2017 02:57 PM

I just phoned into Fido. Was already existing customer and asked to upgrade to the $60plan and gave it to me lol.
No contract.

Try again, Koodo and Telus are now offering the 10gb plan for 60 bucks.

The difference is the 10gb is permanent, verses being only two years

Nabatron 12-15-2017 04:00 PM

^call in

Mr.HappySilp 12-15-2017 04:37 PM

Doubt I will get anything as I still have 1+ years on my fido contract.

Gh0stRider 12-15-2017 08:00 PM

5gb bonus expires, lame. Go with someone else

JSALES 12-15-2017 08:29 PM

Has anyone had success getting a 10 GB permanent with their existing carrier? Specifically Rogers or Fido?

rich80 12-15-2017 10:09 PM

Any chance someone from Shaw/Freedom Mobile can help me out with a F&F discount? No worries if you can't....planning on signing up with them. Finally ready to ditch Fido.

Bell
 
existing customer with Bell here, i called in and they changed my plan.

10gb is permanent with Bell!

i signed my wife up at a store on Kingsway, Aspire Wireless i think and it was pretty crazy. It seemed like any one and everyone passed the credit check for the plan.

$60 byod 10gb lte advanced data permanant is a no brainer with one of the better networks

Nabatron 12-16-2017 09:32 AM

I dont know why fido wont do it permanent pisses me off!

areyez 12-16-2017 11:55 AM

Whos with Bell? Hows their service? been with rogers forever but thinking about switching over

got a source that works at the kiosk in superstore and they told me that it is now permanent

JSALES 12-16-2017 03:20 PM

Friend received a text from Rogers saying the 10 Gb is now permanent

JSALES 12-16-2017 03:40 PM

I'm on the phone with Rogers and the wait time is 3 hours, wtf

TurboTalon 12-16-2017 07:27 PM

Yup, I waited for 3 hours exactly, finally got through, switched over from an old corporate plan

!Yaminashi 12-16-2017 10:47 PM

Jumped on this plan today too from last year's BYOP plan.
Hopefully these fuckers don't decide to hike the rates again anytime soon
