Winback team a scam??

2 months ago I recieved calls  from Fido Winback like every 3 days and I kept ignoring so I finally answered.

 

 

The winback agent offered me a deal for me to come back from freedom to fido and offered me $35 for 6gb. I kept saying no and that I wasn't interested until he offered me an additional $200 credit. It was an offer I couldn't refuse so I proceeded with the offer via phone. He said that the credit would be applied every month.

 

On my first month my activation fee of $50 was waived as shown on my bill. On the second bill however,  I had a bill of $79.10. I was shocked and immediately contacted an agent. They said I should wait until the payment is required (Apr 4) for the credit to show up.

 

I waited until April 4th and the credit still wasn't showing so I contacted a customer service agent again. The agent said that only the winback team can apply the credit so I have to contact them directly. The agent submitted a form for the  winback to call me within 2 business days.

 

4 days passed and I received no call. So I contacted customer service  AGAIN for them to give me a call and I STILL HAVENT RECIEVED A CALL.

 

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE JUST ADD MY CREDIT SO I CAN MOVE ON WITH MY LIFE

 

And if you guys just lied about giving $200 credit y'all are SCAMMERS

you can't really trust what the Winback team says, a department higher up can change the terms of the deal you were promised and there's nothing that can be done.

 

 The Winback team promised me a deal for two years, and then after a year Fido corporate changed my plan, and they just said "yeah sorry about that".

Hello @Cm2017,

 

That definitely isn't the kind of experience we aim to offer you.

 

Feel free to contact us over these methods if you need help with anything.

Thanks for the reply,

 

I already spent almost an hour on the phone with an agent, but the change to my plan was outside the agent's control and nothing could be done.

 

i found a better deal with another carrier and have since left fido.

 

peace,
