Hi,

 

My yahoo email and my fido account both got hacked into. Whomever hacked into my fido also canceled my account. Now my phone isn't working, and I can't use my phone as a recovery device for my email either because I can't recieve any texts.

I'm kinda pissed that my account got canceled and I got no call to confirm it. I did get a text message, which looked like a phishing text (which I get tens of on a weekly basis) so I ignored it. 

Now i'm stuck with no phone service, unsecured (but recovered, thankfully) email, and no way of calling Fido to sort this out.

Just a follow up that online help + visiting a store is working on resolving this issue, and have been very helpful so far.
