Cannot Cancel Account

Hi Fido Community,

 

I called in to cancel Fido internet last Friday and was told that the account cancellation was good to go and I only need to return the modem to a Fido store within 5 days.  I went into the Fido store today (Monday) and they told me that the cancellation request didn't go through and they couldn't do a modem return.  The lady at the Fido kiosk was super helpful and called in support for me but support told her that whoever did my cancellation messed up and now they are not able to close my account at all even if I call in.

 

The support on the phone was able to create a support case for me but she said that it'll take maybe 30 days to resolve.  Is there anyone here that can help me or had similar issues?

 

Thanks!!

I am getting the same BS from Fido. I wanted to cancel tonight, but in a couple hrs. I was told earlier that i can chat back later to cancel.

chatted and was told i could not cancel, need to wait until 9am for cust ser. I just got copy and paste msg from the support person.

I have been lied to for weeks now, ever since i inquired about cancelling. i think they do it to make a little more money. a little more times a lot of people is a lot.

Scam company and just terrible, condescending reps. so glad when i finally get out. BUT, now my next provider may not be able to hook me up if fido is still active. total bs.

Hey @kow,

 

Welcome to our Community!

 

I'm sorry to learn that there was trouble with the cancellation of your account, this is really not the kind of experience we want you to have with us!

 

I'll need to take a closer look at the account to see what's going on. 

 

PM coming your way shortly Smiley
