Koodo, Fido offer $168 bill credit for some plans, purchases

Koodo and Fido are currently offering a limited-time promo that gives customers $168 in bill credit for select plans and purchases. Telus' Koodo is offering the credit when you get a new phone with a Tab plan. But this bonus is only applicable to new activations. You'll also need to enter the promo code "K168CNY" at checkout, suggesting it's a promo just in time for the Chinese New Year or Lunar New Year.

As for Rogers' Fido, the bill credit is given to those who activate or upgrade to a new smartphone online on new two-year data, talk and text plans. The bill credit will show up on your second or third Fido bill. There will be a $35 setup service fee unless you opt to use self-serve online. Fido is also offering $8 off per month for 12 months on some plans to celebrate the Lunar New Year. This promo can be combined with the bill credit offer.

Fido offers $10 off for 6 months to select customers of its $50/15GB 'winback' plan

Fido hopes to keep the customers it has won back by offering them a $10 discount for six months on their $50/15GB "winback" plan. A user on RedFlagDeals shared how they received a text message that reads: "Great news! We added a $10 discount off your monthly service fee for 6 months. This is an exclusive offer just for you to thank you for being a Fido customer. You don't have to do anything. This discount will start on your next bill." This deal means that for the next six months, the customers who received the notification will pay $40 for 15GB of data. It was probably meant to deter anyone who might be swayed by other carriers' Black Friday and other holiday deals.

The free data will be credited to your account, and it'll be viewable online via My Account.
