Hey guys,

I have recently bought an iPhone because it's 3G/wifi internet browsing speeds exceed those of a Uni, and of course a data plan of 6 gigs for an extra $30 a month....

My problem is that I'm not all that satisfied with the iPhone, thus I would like to go back to using my Uni on a data plan witch I currently have.

Problem!

I’m with FIDO (Canada) and they are telling me that if I try to use a none FIDO phone I will be charged by kilobyte regardless of my data plan which is essentially unlimited!

I would like to know if this is true? Do they have the ability to find out or distinguish between a none FIDO phone (my beloved Uni) and the iPhone which is a FIDO phone?

Words can’t describe how disappointed I am!!!

You’re help will be greatly appreciated….

Borrow from some friend cellphone with at least GPRS (without simlock, or with FIDO simlock), put your simcard into that and try to connect with Internet. If number of money decreases, they're right.

Unfortunately I can only tell if I'm being charged at the end of my pay period!
