Rogers/Fido Prepaid Data Passes to Receive New Prices Starting Feb. 6th

Update 1: Rogers will also be applying the same prepaid data pass changes as well. (Thanks Jonathan!)

==

Fido Prepaid Data Passes are set to receive a new price overhaul as of February 6th, 2012. These data passes are available daily and weekly for prepaid customers that want to use small amounts of data with their smartphones or mobile phones, and were launched back in the Fall of 2009.

Data Day Pass
$2 for 20MB (current price)
$1 for 10MB (new price)

Data Week Pass
$7 for 125MB (current price: 5.6 cents/MB)
$5 for 60MB (new price: 8.3 cents/MB)

As you can see from the above, the Data Week Pass revision will result in a 48% increase in price, along with a 33% reduction in data allotment. Fido Prepaid Data Pass users, let us know what you think of these changes.

Thanks Beetle for the tip!
