Hello Kiendang68,

 

  Happy Holidays and Welcome to the Community!

 

  Sorry to hear you've received unexpected charges on your bill. It is unfortunate you did not understand how airtime is charged.

Airtime.jpg

~taken from Terms of Service; section 3g.

 

  Since your call began before 5pm, the entire length of the call would have incurred airtime charges, even though a portion of the call extended beyond 5pm. If the call had started after 5pm, then there would not have been any charges. It should be noted that most providers would consider airtime in the same manner.

 

**edit** It should also be mentioned that free talk evenings and weekends is for airtime only. Long-distance charges (if any) would be additional.**

 

  I understand this is a difficult time and receiving such a bill even more distressing. If you're unable to make full payment on the bill, you might consider arranging a payment schedule. To make an arrangement, you'll need to contact the credit operations team. It should be mentioned that a payment arrangement might not be available in all situations.

 

  If you would like to further discuss your situation, you would need to you would need to contact customer service. In addition, they can also be contacted via Live Chat, Facebook, or Twitter. Those methods can be accessed via the contact page posted above.

 

Hope this helps ☃️

 

Cheers

i don't need your help for set up payment I did pay already but the problem is the plan is not clear to understand or do in purpose so company can charge customer easier so customer can not say anything when we r losing money but remember customer will report Fido with BBB or they will walk away so Fido will lost a lot customer included us we have 3 accounts with Fido

Sorry to hear you've had a bad experience with Fido however I find it extremely hard to believe that Fido would be disrespectful to their customers, I've been with Fido for almost 2 years and have had nothing but the best experience, I have 20 Gigs of data for $45/month unlimited calling and texting Canada wide, good luck getting that anywhere else, as I was saying I feel that in order for a representative to come off rude would be to how they were treated by the Customer, and out of my almost 2 years of experience I've never had an issue with a representative being unprofessional and/or rude, so I'd have to say it depends on how you talk to people, as I feel if you remain calm, respectful and professional they shall remain the same..
