hi, quick question – does Fernie offer good / any reception on a Fido cellphone. I am moving from Toronto and am not sure whether i should bring my cellphone or not.
Also, even if I do, am I right that because it has a toronto area code I will be paying LD rates for all / any calls within Fernie?
Thanks.
there is no fido service at all in fernie. fido is a city centre oriented cellular option. the closest fido service area is calgary and then vancouver on the other side of things. when moving to fernie, you’ll have to explore other cell phone companies, such as telus mobility, bell mobility, or rogers at&t.
I moved to Fernie last year and I kept my Rogers phone after much deliberation. The only places that I have bad coverage is inside “the Fernie” pub and on the road to Calgary between Crowsnest pass and Longview. I really haven’t had much to complain about!
