Rogers flanker brand Fido has once again changed up its plans. This time around, the wireless provider has changed over its $60\/12GB plan to a $58\/15GB plan, matching an offer provided by Koodo and Virgin Plus<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, Fido also appears to have ditched its \u2018starter\u2019 plans, moving those options up to be counted as regular plans.<\/p>\n

Koodo and Virgin added a limited-time $58\/mo plan with 15GB of data back on January 22nd<\/a>. Initially, Koodo offered a $60\/15GB plan with a $5\/mo bill credit but later adjusted the pricing to match Virgin and dropped the bill credit. It\u2019s worth noting that both Koodo and Virgin promote their plans as $58\/10GB plans with a 5GB data bonus, not as 15GB plans.<\/p>\n

Fido has finally joined the other two flanker brands in offering a $58\/mo 10GB plan with a 5GB data bonus for 15GB total. Further, Fido doesn\u2019t list the plan as a limited-time offer like the others, but given how frequently carriers change up plans, I imagine it won\u2019t stick around for long. It\u2019s worth noting that Fido seems to no longer offer the $5\/mo bill credit it had on January 19th<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Moreover, Fido offered a $70\/mo 15GB plan prior to January 19th. That just makes the $58\/15GB offer even sweeter. All plans include unlimited Canada-wide calling and texting, call display, circle calling and voicemail.<\/p>\n

As for the starter plans, Fido seems to have removed that \u2018starter\u2019 designation, although the plans appear to have similar restrictions \u2014 you can\u2019t select them if you choose to buy a phone on contract from Fido. If you\u2019re buying a phone (even a cheap one like the Moto G Power<\/a>) you can only pick from Fido\u2019s $52\/8GB or $58\/15GB plans. Bring-your-own-phone (BYOP) customers, however, can select any plan they want.<\/p>\n

Beyond the removal of the \u2018starter\u2019 designation, the plans remain unchanged:<\/p>\n
