Fido Reduces Monthly Service Fees For CityFido Plans

Back in November 2009, Fido increased the price of their entry level CityFido plan to $45 from $40. The $60 CityFido plan remained unchanged. A month later in December 2009, Fido reduced the entry level CityFido plan back to $40 from $45. The $60 CityFido plan remained unchanged.

Then in a rare move, in that same month of December 2009, Fido expanded the CityFido zones, which widened the available calling areas.

A year later in November 2010, Fido updated the CityFido plans to allow customers to use their minutes in any CityFido Zone across Canada. In other words, if your CityFido Zone was in Vancouver, you could also use your minutes in any of the other CityFido cities without incurring additional fees.

Today, Fido has made another rare change by reducing the fees of both the CityFido plans. The existing $40 and $60 plans are now $35 and $55 with no changes to the available minutes and features.
