Guys, I have done both options over the past 2 weeks, and now Fido isn't giving credit for the second attempt/account. Read the past few pages of posts.

It just isn't happening anymore, Fido's IT guys have rewritten the program (as of April 12th) and it's catching those 2nd tries. I think it's based on SSN#.

If you are an existing Fido customer who hasn't taken advantage of any offers in the past 12 months, then you are eligible for the "fund existing account" option. Otherwise, the limit of one account per person per "year" is being enforced.

Nobody on this forum has yet found a deviation.
