I remember we used to get text notifications showing this but I haven't received those in a loooong time.
No, you won't. Write down the date and make sure you got enough balance in billing day.

Also be careful to have enough balance in the billing day. Otherwise they'll charge you by "per day" something like that. I was charged $2.5 because I don't have enough balance in billing day . I refilled my account 2 days after billing day, they charged me $5 on top of the $2.5 . Called 611 and they give me one time credit and explained the rule.

You can only transfer to a prepaid account. It doesn't have to be a Pay-Your-Way account, it can be a monthly plan, but it has to be set up as Pay Before instead of Pay After.

Can someone please explain what is the expiry date after transferring credits from pay as you go to a pay before monthly plan?

Is it based on the expiry of the transferring account?

If it's a pay before monthly account, it will withdraw the monthly amount from the credit. It will last until the credit is depleted.

Any one know if the $2 cap per day charge is still valid? Also, does the cap applies to away data as well or just in home zone? I am on a trip soon, would be nice to be able to use the away data as $2 per day, much cheaper than to add away data add-one on my other plan.

If you have a lot of incoming, $200 is not bad

For people who gives this plan to family/friends or sell it to others, can you change the name, email and all the corresponding account information to the other user as well as you just pass the login to the new user, how to do that, in a freedom mobile store or call customer service?

I have not done it myself, but I've been told that the account ownership can be easily changed in store.

I transferred mine a couple of years ago and the owner information can be easily changed at the kiosk. The individual was already a Wind/Freedom customer (with another line) so it took all of 5 minutes.

Also, when you say the unlimited outgoing calls is for local only, what does "local" mean exactly? Is that when you're in the Wind/Freedom Home zone? I recently went above $2 but that was during a phone call in the Away zone.
Probably dependent on area code
i.e. this is an Edmonton number that was used in Edmonton.
(the 780/587 calls are treated as local, the calls to other area codes are provincial/national, the lower 2 calls are to USA numbers.)
