Re: Do you like fido?
I'm a fairly new Fido customer, and so far buying a phone with a Fido pay as you go plan is not something I would do again; I would love to take this past week back and not even bother with it.
I'm not a big fan of paying 20 cents per minute, and everyone else I know pays nothing or very little for text messaging, but I'm paying 15 cents. The plan was to buy a 10 dollar a month phone card, but if I do this then I'm paying 30 cents per minute. Now I'm stuck buying 20 dollar a month phone cards, and that probably won't even last as I enjoy text messaging -- something I was told would be free -- and also 20 cents per minute; and we all know how fast those minutes fly past you. I also hear that refilling on hours is a long process.
With Rogers pay as you go, refilling was easy and fast.
If I like my phone, but dislike Fido, would it be possible to buy a new SIM card with a Rogers plan?Last edited by The Doors12; 01-24-2007 at 03:54 AM.

I like the price for my City Fido, but I hate Fido Customer Service.

I am going to have to edit this. These seems to be a problem with the Donate and Store section of this site. Remind me when the problems are fixed and I might give you a bit more than 100Last edited by kdholdom; 02-09-2007 at 01:02 AM.

Re: Do you like fido?
I was on rogers (before they got bought out by them!), but i came back to fido because of the per second billing. The only thing i dont like about Fido is the quality of the phones. Just wish they had more selection. Other than that, i still think they're the best in Canada

Re: Do you like fido?
Well I just got a Fido plan tonight! YES I went to Rogers but they were out of KRZR's for another month.. I was not thinking of waiting so, as I was leaving I see a Fido booth and decide to check out their plan, great plan and cheap KRZR I got the $35 unlimited talk plan with 16 dollar bundle GREAT DEAL. I recommend it to all. Their service at the booth was great and I'm loving this cheap phone/plan. I love Fido.

Re: Do you like fido?
I actually hate FIDO. Until last december, I was doing everything through the Eaton Centre store in Toronto, and the service was actually demeaning. It's like I was just being a pain in the ass to them, and the staff made it clear they thought I wasn't good enough to be their customer. When I went to replace my first handset (it was left outside in the rain) they wouldn't let me walk in to the store and buy a new one. I had to call and order one from Montreal, since the phones in the store were for "new customers only" (note--I had to replace my dead phone BY PHONE!!--does anyone see the irony in this?). When I moved out west, they wouldn't change my billing address, and so the bills got sent back to some random stranger in my old apartment.
Last April, I got a phone call offering $100 credit on my bill, no strings attached. What they didn't tell me was that I would get locked into a new 2-year contract by accepting it, which I apparently have to blow $400 to get out of.
This morning was the last straw--8 am on a saturday, my FIDO handset rings-I've since bought a Telus phone since I can barely get a signal at my house in Banff--and a pre-recorded voice asked if I was happy with my Fido service. What, they don't care enough about their customers to have a real person ask how the service is?
