I switched over to Fido this morning after hearing about their Black Friday deal for the $29.00/month plan. I received the SIM card and was told that the plan would start working on my phone after around 30 mins. I want to add that I have an unlocked phone and that I previously used another plan from the Rogers family so phone compatibility should not be an issue.
A few hours later, there is neither text, nor call, nor data on my phone (and the plan carries all three). I have removed the SIM card from the tray and put it back into the phone several times, I have restarted my phone several times, and neither has worked.
I have reset my network settings on my phone several times and that also has not worked.
I am at the step where I would try to manually add in the network operator. I have an Android, and so I go to mobile networks, turn off the "select automatically" option and then I click "scan networks". I see the Fido option pop up and then when I click it, it just says "Unable to connect. Try again later." It has been a few hours of this message and I am wondering if this is a phone issue (but it was connecting to my previous SIM card and all of my travel SIMs just fine at the beginning of 2023), or if I need to do something else for it to connect to my Fido plan.
Anyone else with the same issue have any luck?
