Isn't Fido Toronto only or have they changed that? (it's been a while since I checked)
Also worth mentioning is this marketing thing where each of the major carriers own several cheap carriers. E.g. Roger's has: Fido, Chatr, Cityfone, Primus, Zoomer, and SimplyConnect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Canadian_mobile_phone_...
Current plans listed are 4Gb for $10/month, though they would require being paired with a voip provider, as I mentioned above.
Fido is available nation-wide, AFAIK. You're likely thinking of Wind. Originally available in select cities (such as Toronto or Vancouver), they were bought out by Shaw in... 2015 (?) I believe, and renamed to Freedom Mobile. They are currently available in most major cities, and rely on roaming in less densely populated areas.
Note these are data-only plans, without SMS or calling. We use the Acrobits softphone (iPhone) or the built-in voip client (de-Googled Android) with voip.ms for
- Voice calls
- SMS/MMS (in-app, forwarded to any cell number, or via any email client)
- Transcribed voicemail
- Automatic call recording, and
- Spam-call blocking by configuring an IVR (spam callers can't press "1" to continue).
I've no relation to Acrobits, Fido, or voip.ms aside from being a customer, though I happily recommend all three.
