On: You Can Spend $750 in International Data Roaming i...

Ha! Fido.ca lists roaming data at over $6 per KB. I asked a rep and confirmed on my contract.

So at 4G, that's about, what, $10,000-$30,000 per second?

That is so outrageous. They clearly do this insane billing because it’s left over from the GPRS days, and it pushes people into the also overpriced plans.

There needs to be some sort of legislation passed to limit this, but since it only matters internationally it’s a gray area and carriers are getting away with it.
