[Fido] Nationwide - Fido $40/4GB, $50/9GB, $45/11GB + one time credit (1 line $100, 2 lines $300, 3 lines $500-600)
I was checking my account on fido.ca since I've had a data line already at Fido which has been free for years. I was somehow made eligible for the $45/11GB plan.
I ended up porting all my Koodo lines over to Fido since my plans at Koodo ($40/8GB, $39/10GB, $35/5GB) were all ineligible for any HUPs due to Koodo changing the way TABs work.
In store Fido offered $45/11GB for all three lines with a $600 credit (SIM and activation waived ofc). 1000LD/mins and all the regular bells and whistles.
This effectively makes each line $36.66/11GB with Fido for the next two years and this is on a month to month plan.
For those of you that are new to Fido, you would have one line thats $50/9GB with two lines getting $45/11GB. Your effective rate would be ~$38/mth/per line. You might even be able to convince the manager to get you the $5/mth discount and 2GB bonus on the first line because those promos are "soft codes" that can be added to the lines post activation based on discretion. Again YMMV based on your interaction with the store reps/managers.
Most reps will only offer $100 on the phone, $150 in store, the manager may be able to get you somewhere between $100-$150 for one line, $200-$300 for two lines, and $400-$600 for three lines in terms of credit.
He did mention that this promotion will expire based on when competing offers from other carries are taken off the market within the next few days or week. I'm based in ON by the way, I suggest calling Fido stores to ask what they are offering. Hope this helps someone else get a deal it will be based on the quota the store manager has to fulfill hence YMMV. If you're nice/patient you can get up to $600 in credits.
Good Luck!
Update: A few users were able to get the same/a similar deal that I described.
They got their deals at a Fido corporate store, they went to different stores than I did.
I would suggest users call/go speak to Fido Corporate stores closest to them.
