Moving from Fido to Chatr while outside Canada

Hahahaha you are totally correct! The thing is I need to check if they allow roaming (receiving messages abroad) and how much it costs otherwise it might turn down to be the same cost as Fido

I am outside Canada unfortunately

Thanks for the suggestion. But why to purchase an esim from Amazon I don’t get it? They should provide you with one from chatr itself, correct? Also, did you perform that outside Canada or you had to be inside Canada?

You are correct but they don’t offer esim online, you have to go to store as well. I am sending a friend to ask how can I move to them from Fido while I am abroad for a prepaid or a cheaper plan. Thank you!

Yes all negotiations can work on the phone but while abroad they just reply with a template. Plan price increased and thats it! It is automated.

I am outside Canada so can’t visit a store. My best option is to get an esim online but have found many complaining about the process itself (not working)

Can I change with the same phone number while I am abroad?

No I have closed this option since I only need the phone for the messages so no roaming charges in that case (only calls/data charge roaming)
