I got this deal and after first month I see I have $377 credit with a device balance of 699. If I cancel my account (i.e., port out my number) from fido, do I have to pay (699-377)+tax or this 377 credit gets clawed back?

I thought $65 is only 2GB in Fido website?
Lurking on RFD for years. Finally decided to make an account...😂

Yes and you need to pay 699 + tax -399

If you take time to go through a couple of the last pages, there are evidences that people do get call backs. Even those who were not with aFido have ported to Fido and left in few days to get the callbacks and they do get it.

I basically had 2 lines under the same account. I was successful with the Winback on my first line (Samsung S9+ (Paid $79 upfront) , $60/mo for 8Go).
After one month, I decided to port my second line (2 days ago).
I am wondering if someone went through the same experience, What are my chances to get a winback call for the second line?

I have 3 lines with Fido and would love to get some of these winback offers, could someone advise the easiest way to port out, was thinking Freedom seems to be the most stated recently. Can it all be done online? And is it usually best to wait for the call back or call and leave a voicemail asap?

Thanks in advance.

Ported out to Freedom Mobile on December 23rd, received a phone call from Fido Winback on December 24th. Ended up taking this offer:

  • iPhone XS 64gb for $0 ($500 + tax - $500 device credit) on an 8gb plan for $67

PM me if you have any questions!

I was with Fido for two months after porting over from a Telus employee plan. My number is an Ontario area code, but my billing address is Alberta. Ported out to Freedom on December 23rd. Called winback on December 28th and was told that I am not eligible. Does anyone know when they update these lists? Has anyone had any luck calling back in and receiving an offer after being previously ineligible?

Ported to koodo from Fido after finishing the contract. Do I will get any call from winback team or I have to call the number the OP has mentioned to get a win back offer?

Left Fido and went to Bell when they had the BYOD 10g $60 for better reception but will go back to Fido if they offer me a good deal. Been with Fido for over 15 years and they didnt offer me anything when I told them that I was cancelling. Call the 1-855 number mention on earlier post yesterday at 1:09pm and left a message, almost 24 hours now still no call.

I would definitely like to take this offer...would anyone not agree this is great? Too bad it has to be a win-back. How long before I can just call and get this deal?

Has anyone who recently ported out been able to trade in their current phone for additional credits? Just curious if their normal trade in program also applies to winback offers.

I left 2 voicemails (1-855-343-6946) on the 25 (English) and 26 (French). No call back yet. Is there any way to reach them directly, I tried calling multiple times but always get to the VM.

Unfortunately, I just kept trying and eventually got through. I called around 7:30AM PST and got through.

So I switched to freedom on Dec 23rd, left a VM the same day. Then left a voicemail on Dec 26th. Still no call back. I decided to call right now and I actually got through. The number is a direct line into the calling center. If you don’t get through, don’t bother leaving more than 2 VM. I also found out that I was not on their win back call list, so it disqualified me from the offer. I had to patch my friend who got the offer and they said my line had to join his account. So he took my number on his account, got me the offer and we called back separately to port back the number ownership to me.

I got the XS max offer with the $67 8gb plan. Hope that helps for people trying to get the offer. Just make sure you’ve got a friend also who’s qualified for the promo as a back up.

i tried calling 7 times just now and was able to reach a person. Got I phone XS MAX 64 GB for 159 $ upfront with 500 device credits and 10gb for 75 dollars. sweet deal.
please keep calling and you will be able to reach them.

Price breakout for plan is 100 $ for 10gb for duration of contract but they give 25% discount for time of contract so 75$ per tax.

so first invoice is 159 for device +75 for plan
