topic Re: Koodo's More Tempting Offer, $45 and 8GB LTE in Get Support

Legit offer?

dealforme — Wed, 05 Jan 2022 10:18:38 GMT

I just got the following text from 5130. Sounds to good to be true

An offer so good, we can barely believe it! 8 GB of data for $45 per month on Koodo's 4G LTE network! That means speeds more than 10x* faster than your current

New Koodo offer?

Just got this text:

"An offer so good, we can barely believe it! 8 GB of data for $45 per month on Koodo's 4G LTE network! That means speeds more than 10x* faster than your current"

Seems like the text was cut off. It gave no details on how to take advantage of the offer. Anyone get something similar?

I got a similar message but mine wasn't cut off. I wasn't interested so I deleted it, but my husband was so he called them to see if he could get that deal. They checked into it and they said it wasn't them that sent the message. So I guess it's not legitimate...too bad.

I got a text a short time ago with the same message I seemed like there was another part to it but I only got half the message. It's a shame if this isn't a legit offer, it must be some phishing scam that is trying to troll PM customers LOL.

TEXT back offer

I read through this RFD link in detail to figure out what's up, since my husband was interested in that plan. It seems you can use the code if it wasn't sent to you, but it requires as Tab Small.

That being said, my husband just called Koodo to see if they could apply my offer to his phone and they couldn't find a record of sending me that text, so perhaps it is a scam?!

Thanks, I was just heading to RFD.

Yeah, the deal is legit.

I probably won't take any winback offer for at least a few months. I switched to Public Mobile to save money.

I read people on RFD reporting getting this deal as well. Their message includes a promo code. I think this is legitimate. 8 gigs is too much. $45 is above my pain threshold.

In terms of $/GB, we have a new migration plan winner at $5.63, edging out the previous test (to my knowledge) of $6.67/GB for the $40 6GB migration offers. Nice value! [If you need the data and full-speed and access to a call centre and access to international roaming and....]

mynamejc — Tue, 07 Aug 2018 23:56:31 GMT

It requires a tab-small at the minimum from what I read on RFD. You can try the code out with your number to see if it's available to you even if you don't have the text.

The arithmetic works if you use up all 8 gigs. If you buy the plan to future proof, then the dollars per gig should be based on how many gigs are actually consumed.

Together with the Koodo retention offer to current Koodo customer, This new migration offer is a winner.

$40 6GB = $6.67/GB

$45 8GB = $5.63/GB

$60 10GB = $6/GB

Just what @will13am said, if you pains threhold lever is under $40, you will be safe. Otherwise, your habit will change after trying the 8GB or 10GB plans. Speed and more data are addictive as soon as you let go your wallet.

I just took some time to test it out and this definitely is the case. The deal isn't a bring your own device. You need to purchase a device and be on small tab.

I wonder if there was a misfire of some sort with this promo. On RFD, some people are saying they got the text offering them $45 for 8 GB, but when they put the code in on the site, it only shows $60 for 10 GB as the only promo available. Also, so many people got that half-cut-off text.

And requiring at least tab small seems like it's taking people off guard, do these offers usually work with BYOP?

I'm one of the folks who got the cut off text, but was able to get the system to send me the full text by texting back "offer".

When I selected sim (instead of phone) I got an error stating that my phone didn't qualify (this was before I was given a chance to verify with my phone number) and that BYOP wasn't eligible either.

I'm new to this game, but suspect it might have been a misfire.

What plan are people on that are getting the text?

Re: New Koodo offer?

sswilson — Wed, 08 Aug 2018 00:49:26 GMT

8GB unlimitted canadian T and canadian/US text for $45.

There's a disclaimer of *conditions apply* at the bottom but no further info on the text.

edit: sorry, I misread your question....

4.5GB @ $40

@mimmo I was just going to ask the same question! Would have been nice if the OP mentioned it in the first post 😛
