Yeah I found it hard to believe myself when I heard the "no agreement with PM" line, the rep said that Rogers and PM had an agreement to "swap numbers back and forth" but not Fido since "they are separate companies. I asked if she'd just swap it to Rogers then Fido but she said she couldn't because it depends where the number originally came from...
Had them transfer me to someone else at Rogers to see if they would match the Fido deal explaining the porting issue, where he suggested I paid for a month on a plan that was gonna be about double the fido plan price and then transfer the number back into Fido.
I don't know if it's just an inexperienced rep or what was going on. The first rep was going to disconnect the call so I don't "think" it was some kinda switcheroo to have to pay for a more expensive plan. I was the one who asked to be transferred to someone who just dealt with Rogers. While I do like being able to get someone on the phone for support, but there was 2 or 3 gong rings at the gongshow during those calls.
