Sober posted:I think I'm getting sick of using prepaid plans. I've been using Virgin mobile for a few years now, thinking of maybe switching to WIND. I mean, I don't really use my phone as much right now but maybe I will if I switch to the 25$ plan? At Koodo (not sure for other providers) we ask for either your PIN, account number or the IMEI of your current phone (So bring your phone in). I figure other providers use the same process.

Fractal Cat posted:The deposit was incase the repair centre decided that the damage was my fault. If I wanted a loaner phone it would be $10, but I'm imaging it would just be a flip-phone of some kind so why bother with that? That's really different compared to Koodo. At Koodo we send the phone out for repair and ask for a 150$. The deposit is for a loaner phone that we give you while your phone is out for repair. No matter what happens as long as you bring back our loaner will give you back your 150$. However, if the repair center finds that the phone was physically damaged or water damaged they will send us a repair quote, from there we call you let you know why and how much the repair is and you can either accept or reject the price. If the price is 75$, will give you back the remaining amount after taxes from your deposit (If you accepted the repair costs) if not will reject the repair and give you back the full 150$ as long as we get our phone back. I always recommend clients to find a second hand Koodo phone as a back up. This helps to avoid the 150$ deposit for a loaner while your primary phone is gone for repair. Cause having 150$ tied up for 2 to 4 weeks sucks. Kolta fucked around with this message at 01:49 on Jul 19, 2012 |

Fractal Cat posted:I should have clarified, my partner's contract is up on the 2nd of August so they gave the 30-day notice to Fido, and was told by the CSR that if they ported their number that they would continue to have an account just no service. Now Fido sends them a bill today for the last month, and a 100 dollar early termination fee for both voice and data. Also why would Fido charge for service that they cannot provide to you since your number no longer exists with them. Common sense plays a huge role here.

DarkJC posted:They actually do a catch 22 where they require 30 days notice (which, if you give, you can't port your number out), so they try and get away with charging you for a final month of service for porting your number out, even though they cannot actually provide said service. 30 days notice is accross the board. Porting in or not. If you don't port you can use your phone when you give the cancellation notice for those 30 days. I do find it a bit unfair that you are charged for a full 30 days but that's life I guess.

DarkJC posted:Exactly, my point is that you can't give 30 days notice and port on the final day, at least not with Rogers/Fido, and I think it's downright scummy that they still try and charge you for 30 days of service that you literally cannot use. Almost every charge can be fought or reduced. Depends how much fight ya got in ya. HAH

SII X is launching at Koodo on August 10th for those of you who want a decent android and an upgrade from that Galaxy Ace.

For those of you looking for some sweet prepaid plans, Koodo will be launching prepaid soon. From what I've gathered the only way you can lose your minutes/data is if the phone is inactive for 90 days. Should be launching sometime this month.

Way back when I use to work for Bell they had an add on that wasn't charged to the account and would auto credit border city roaming. Maybe they got rid of it or maybe your friend can just call and ask if it's available in his province, because from what I could remember not all border cities were eligible for the add on.
