My mom was not very happy when she called Fido about changing my cell phone plans today. She got my second bill on the cell phone and it was only around $12. Not bad except for the fact that the plan has no voicemail and call display. Because of that I now have to change myplan to pre-paid. I did have pre-paid before and I liked it way better than those monthly plans. One of the reasons is I despise getting bills every damn month. So I would rather pay before calling people. I admit I do not use my cellphone alot because I’m not really the type of person who talks on the phone alot but when I need a call display and a voicemail thats very important to me. Anyway my mom was bitching to fido because now that I want to switch back to prepaid I now have to pay an extra charge of $25 just to change it. Before when Fido called to offer to change it to montly, the person in Fido stated that there wouldnt be any fees if I wanted to change back to prepaid. Obviously they were either lying or my mom just misheard the person in the phone. Either way, its a total rip-off. My mom has been a customer of Fido for more than 2 years now and we’ve been totally loyal to them by not trading our Fido phone for a Rogers or a Bell one. I have been totally tempted to trade it in the past. :slant Anywho, now I gotta get myself a new Fido pre-paid phone card tomorrow before work and set up my voice mail all over again. And I hate thinking of voice mail messages. :rude

Anyway just be careful of hidden costs people. Make sure you read those tiny prints even though this one didnt have any. :smile
