Scroll down a bit and you’ll see an option to change your plan and another one to upgrade your device:

Let’s pretend we’re doing an upgrade. Here’s what you’ll see:

On this step, you can either choose to keep your existing plan or select a new one. We’ll keep our current plan for this example.

Now you can add or remove your add-ons. When you’re done, click Continue on the bottom right.

Now it’s time to let us know where you want it delivered. You can have the device sent to your billing address or an alternate address.

Next, you'll see a summary of your order. Read it over carefully. Smiley  Everything looks good? Click on Complete Order. Next, you’ll see the Payment info page and then a final confirmation page.

 

 

 

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR PLAN

 

Here are the steps to follow if you’re just looking to change your plan without upgrading your device. On the My Account page, click Change Plan:

That's odd @cottonpants! I just sent the PM again Smiley

 

The $25 transaction fee does not apply to plan changes @CSS! When you log in online and go to the "services" tab, do you see the option to change your plan?

I do see the option to change my plan. However the $45 BYOD 2GB plan is not listed. I did scroll across but couldn’t find it - similar to cottonpants.

the upgrade 30$ fee is cheesy. no need, it is better to get the phone outright and pick your plan,

if one signs an contract to get an upgrade, there should be no fee.

Hey patrickchan!

 

The $30 transaction fee is part of our administrative fees, the full list is found here. That fee will include a new SIM card, shipping, handling, etc.

 

Keep in mind that upgrades or devices purchased in store or through the call center will still trigger a transaction fee even when it's on a BYOP plan. Currently the only exception is when you process this transaction online on your Fido.ca account.

 

Hope this clarifies :).
