I have a public mobile sim card and my present Fido monthly plan renews on the 26th of each month. Would you recommend I switch on the 25th to deactivate fido and bring my number over to public mobile?

Full transfer took 30 minutes for me.

My port from Fido took about 1 hour.
Just put in your Fido account number and Fido account holder name. Don't need to put other information like IME, PIN, etc.

I've heard of ports taking from minutes to 3 or 4 days. Make sure you have all the *required* information and that you put it in right.

@Don_Hall, If your plan with FIDO is post paid, they should normally refund any unused portion of your monthly plan (that has been paid in advance). If it is pre-paid, then you would lose the balance. Note that the Fido account must remain active. It will be cancelled/closed when the tranfer to PM is completed.

That would be the best timing...to maximize the value of your money spent at Fido.
