They won't, new activation only, however they gave me $25 off for 12 months.

Can we go to a kiosk to pick up an activation kit (router/modem)?

Does new activation mean internet activation? If I'm already a fido mobile customer, would I be eligible?

Virgin Mobile is having a 50% off sale: https://www.virginmobile.ca/en/internet/index.html

Got this deal, easy set up just go to local Fido store and get the modem , hook up existing cable to the modem ( it's the hitron modem) should be operational within minutes. Simple...so far very happy with it

Did it for me last month. I gave them a call to cancel. They asked why, mentioned my promo was ending soon so I was going to switch providers. The rep asked if I would stay with Fido if they renewed the promo ofc I said yes lol and she renewed it. YMMV though

Been hitting over 300mbps since hooking up this afternoon . Guess that might change lol
Was with Rogers 60 called if they would match Fido ( same damn company) ....they wouldn’t budge so ciao !

Fido back to 1/2 price internet ...... no contract... price guaranteed for 12 months

Does anyone have experience with fido internet pricing?
Their site states this:

The current price is subject to any applicable rate increase during or after the promotional period.

or

This Black Friday, get our fastest Home Internet at just $37.50 per month after a monthly credit of 50% off for 12 months! Currently $75 per month (prices subject to change).

which is the same out that Robelus uses to get away with mid contract price increases.
I guess if there is no contract we can call to cancel?

Is this not available on BC, when I click through the link I can't see anything about home internet.

based on their September sale they will do the 1/2 for existing customers!!!
If one says not just talk to someone else to save the time of trying to convince them otherwise

yes new activation just talking about fido internet. internet and mobile are totally different so you're still eligible!!

Can I sign up while still on Rogers? They use the same lines. Want to hook it up and ensure all is good before I call and cancel Rogers. Also is service the same quality? Quite happy with Rogers right now but pay close to $90 for 500u (ouch). Can’t get them to lower that since I get no fibre in my building.
