[Fido (Maybe Rogers)] $10/month Fido App Offer (Maybe Rogers App as well?) 5G Rogers “Backup Home Internet” 100GB, Unlimited Throttled Data

When I opened my Fido app today, RIGHT on the front page was a red banner for Rogers 5G Internet. When you tap into the offer, it shows the discounted prices….BUT at the bottom of the plan list is: $5 off the $15 new “backup” 100GB Home Internet plan making it a crazy $10 a month. Great for a cottage or MAYBE a low usage person.

So…I’m not sure what the terms are for a “Backup 5G Home internet plan”….does it mean if I use it every day they will cut me off? LOL. It literally says no overage charges….sooo……hmmm.

5G Backup Home Internet: For 5G Backup Home Internet, when video streaming, per stream download speeds of up to 3 Mbps. For all usage: total download speeds of up to 50 Mbps, and total upload speeds of up to 10 Mbps; after exceeding plan data allotment (i.e., 100 GB for 5G Backup Home Internet), unlimited data with total download speeds of up to 10Mbps and upload speeds of up to 2Mbps. No data overage charges under either plan.

Edit: To clear up the confusion, this is not a CELLPHONE or TABLET plan. Rogers offers HOME Internet over 5G with various amounts of data in each plan FOR YOUR HOME/COTTAGE. This is a NEW “backup” plan appeared today for a discounted $10 in my Fido app. I am an existing Fido customer.

Edit 2: Note that people have tried to take out the SIM out of the Router and use it in other devices, it appears to be sim locked “most of the time” from the other Rogers 5G Home Internet thread. Nothing is stopping you from trying it in cellphone

Edit 3: I went to Rogers chat and after a HUGE LONG pause of “checking” if I can use this every day. They said, we don’t see anything in the terms and conditions that will block you from using this EVERY DAY even though it’s called “backup home internet”.
