Anybody able to get Koodo 4GB offer on a NEW line?

torontokris — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 09:10:19 GMT

Was anybody able to get the Koodo 4GB $40 for PM users offer on a new line using the code? I'm sticking with PM (for now) but would possibly get another line.

Yes I'm aware the text said for my # only but wanted to see if anybody was successful in starting a new line.

I don't think so. But it would be nice to know. 🙂

Hi @torontokris,

If I recall correctly, the promo code is tied to the phone number, therefore, it would not be possible. But you can take one for the team, give it a try and report back 🙂

I just made a switch yesterday! So, Everything is unlimited regarding minutes and text(international). Even if you run out of data, you can still send pictures. Koodo works when you travel vs PM that doesn't.

You'll be on a regular month-to-month plan with an option to have a small or medium TAB!!! Yes, you can pick up a new phone with paying only up to +15/month extra - If you want to.

Regarding $15 for the sim, just tell the koodo kiosk that you talked to koodo customer service and they said you'll be eligible for a free sim! Worked with me

PS: even koodo is confused why telus is doing all these bs changes, at the end of the day - the same big boss gets the money.

Cheers!

Just for fun I played with the Koodo sign in promo. You put the promo code in and your phone number and you can then see the offer. I tried othe PM phone numbers that I know are not part of the targeted plan and their phone numbers did not work. But IF I did go through with the sign up process I know it would assign me a new temp number until my sim arrived in the mail and PM would stay active. I suppose you could just keep both lines going at that point. Just don’t complete the port. But I wouldn’t want to chance it.

Good info, may be worth a shot for those who are planning to port over to Koodo anyways to try.

The 4GB plan has a medium tab option? Are you sure about that? It's supposed to be a BYOD plan.

Kood tabs are on top of the monthly plan. I think minimum requirement for medium tab is $40 "naked" monthly, so it would qualify.

It would be cool actually if one can sign-up for this Koddo plan with a temp number,

and then bail out at the stage of porting the PM number. They cannot force you to port out if you changed your mind, right?

The risk is loosing 15$ for a SIM card. tempted to try 😉

Cool idea but not for me. If somebody has already done this and can report results that would be great. I spoke to Koodo yesterday as part of my preparation to migrate and the person I spoke to went over the details of the migration plan. He clearly stated that there will be no tab options. It is interesting that the plan allows up to a medium tab.

Perhaps a bridge too far for any Koodo/PM system to have separate check for "Was that phone number ported to us?". Is it not more likely the phone number is just used to open the page holding the offer?

I also spoke to a koddo store yesterday, and they assured me that the "small tab" option ($240) is definitely in, pending the credit check. So, the small fish from the stores probably does not know all the details that the big sharks of Telus deviously plugged in this transition scheme.

The "loophole" with signing up for Koddo and then bailing out of porting, thus keeping both Koodo and PM plans, becomes important only because PM backed out of the "infamous" 🙂 price increase. So it is likely have no real fix in their systems yet. tryin to see if I need another 4GB/$40 plan (not available anymove via PM).

🙂 Exactly my thought. By the end of the Koodo sign-up process, they tell you that "in 2-7 business days" you receive theit SIM + the porting instructions.

I wonder what happens if you just plug in the SIM, no porting whatsoever 🙂

Customer service and Koodo shop told me that it'll be up to a Medium Tab.

Also, i just tested LTE speed on KOODO, being inside my apartment and not full bars......Care to know the double digits? 47.3 Download and 32.8 Upload. So PM kinda looses by at least a half..... And i haven;t heard an invite back from any MOD yet, so.....

I think I will pass this time. Something tells me a better Koodo offer might be available later on if PM insists on eliminating Fall2016 bunch.

Now that Koodo has sweetened the PM migration plan to 6GB, I am really tempted to try adding a new line with the promo code even though I already ported in from PM on my first line. GOKOODO406GB is still valid during checkout and I can even add a new line and assign a new phone number to it.

Has anyone been able to get the KOODO 6GB offer on a new line without porting over? Just curious if anyone tried and succeeded!
