Modem swapping issue that is taking 4+ days to resolve

[Vjollca]

On Sunday, I went to a Fido store to swap a modem. During the swapping, the system glitched and did not fully perform the swap to recognize the new modem against my account.

i have been on the phone with about 20 different people and, and I feel none are taking my matter seriously. It should not take over 3 days to solve this issue.

i have two kids who rely on the internet for their learning, myself and my wife who work from home. We have spent over 100 dollars on cellphone data to try and connect and do the work.

considering COVID-19, FIDO shouod put customers safety first and think about my 9 and 11 year old missing school.
I am very disappointed with Fido technical team that do not reverse the swap than perform the swap correctly, or overwrite the data on the account and force the swap, or on the back end force the data change.

I feel like I'm in the same box.  Having modem issues and they want to book a truck roll for a tech to come and assess whats already been identified. The kicker is I can't go to a store for a simple swap.  I miss those days where I can walk into a store.  I'm now left with finding another provider this weekend and cancelling Fido when I do... this is not a good business model folks...
