How can I suspend my plan? I tried looking on my online account, but I can't find anything.

Hi @Apollo444

 

The suspension has to be done by customer service. You can reach out to them here

Hi guys,

 

I'm wondering if there's a way that allow me to suspend my phone plans (which contains 2 mobile lines), as I'm going abroad for 2 months. I already know that the suspension can also be added at the beginning of the billing cycle, however, my start date of billing cycle is pretty close to the end of a month, do I really have to pay for the rest of the unused month? 

Plus, when I come back to Canada, when and how can I resume my phone plan?

Hey @Eulina, thank you for reaching out to us about your situation! 

I've moved your post here as this thread deals with temporary suspension.

We can suspend at $30 per month however it has to start as of the new cycle. Any fees before it starts would still apply. You also need to make sure to not be on an agreement to apply a temporary suspension.

 

If you have any further questions for your account specifically, you can send us a private message or contact us through our other channels here: https://www.fido.ca/consumer/contact-us

Hi Nick. I currently have a 2-month temporary suspension on an account priced at $7/month ( it was initiated in May 2019 before the June price increase). Can I extend that for another month at the $7/month rate?

Hey @AtomX,

 

It's definitely possible to have the suspension extended, however, the new price will apply since the $7 option is no longer available.

 

If you'd like to go ahead with it, we can send you a PM on the Community or you can reach out here.

 

Let us know!

I am not in Canada from August 7th to September 4th. I will be in Korea for a month. So could it stop 'fido' for almost a month? Let me use it again on September 5th.
