Fido appears to be offering a couple decent retention plans for customers, which customers in B.C., Alberta and Ontario have been able to successfully get.
The plans available are a $55 Fido Pulse 6GB BYOP (bring your own phone) and $75 Fido Pulse 10GB BYOP plan, which include the following features:
Unlimited Canada calling
Unlimited text, picture and video messages from Canada to Canadian, US and international numbers
Call Display
Call Waitin
Circle Calling
Mini Voicemail
5 free hours of data (1 hour, 5 times per billing cycle) with Data Bytes
Fido Roam
Compatible with Spotify Premium offers
Data overages: $7/100MB or $70/GB
The savings on these retention plans work out to $30 per month, so effectively that’s $360 per year, if you can get it.
Users on RFD have been able to confirm they were able to call in or chat with reps to get this retention plan, but persistence and patience will be required.
So your job now is to contact Fido and ask to speak to the retentions department, to see if you can jump onto one of these plans. Let us know if you’re successful!
