Rogers-owned Fido is currently offering a promotional plan for Shaw’s Freedom Mobile customers if they switch over.
The Fido website states, “Switch from Freedom today!”, then details a $45/20GB promo plan, available for 10 months only.
“Get 20GB for $45 per month after bill credit for 10 months when you bring your own phone. Only when switching from Freedom to Fido. Offer will be applied on your 2nd or 3rd invoice. Hurry! Limited time offer,” says the Fido website.
The offer waives the $45/line setup fee, and the plan after 10 months jumps up to $55 per month (Update: Rogers clarified it will jump to $55, not $75 per month after 10 months). Essentially you’re saving $10 per month for 10 months for BYOD customers.
If you’re keen on being a free agent and you’re not happy with your Freedom Mobile coverage, this looks to switch people over to Fido.
