10. I want to use Fido's prepaid service, what do I need to do?
Firstly, you need to purchase the Fido Sim Card. Secondly, you call Fido at 1-888-481-3436 to get the card activated. Fido will need some of your basic personal information such as Name, Home Address, and Email Address. There is no ID or Credit check for Prepaid service, and no credit card is required. Then Fido will assign you a phone number based on your area/city. Details of your service, including voicemail activation, will be handled by Fido.

11. Fido sells the Fido Sim Card for $35 + Tax, how come you sell so much less?
Fido Sim Cards are actually very inexpensive to produce and are sold at very low price to Fido dealers/branches, but they jack up the price. The cards we sell are 100% BRAND NEW, GENUINE, and UNACTIVATED. We get the the sim cards directly from Fido dealers to avoid unnecessary costs. These sim cards are exactly the same as the ones you buy from the store. The only difference is ours is 1/3 of the retail price.
