For anyone on Fido, I saw a trick posted on the Fido forum, and I tried it and it actually worked.
From your handset, dial *88 as it seems to be a bit of a back door into their phone system. It will fail a few times, but after a few attempts it connected. And then I waited about 5-10 minutes, spoke with a guy, and he got me all switched over. The call itself probably took close to 25 or 30 minutes all-in, but most of that was him waiting for their system to respond.
He did also tell me that the promotion ends tomorrow, the 19th, at the end of the day. He mentioned that he has taken about 40 or 50 calls on his shift, and every single one of them was for this offer.
