Rogers, Fido new 411 Directory Assistance call rate $2.50 beginning March 16

Heads up, guys. Rogers/Fido will be hiking their prices once again. Last time around, it was for SMS. Now, it’s for 411 Directory Assistance calls.

Beginning March 16th, all 411 calls made from a Rogers/Fido mobile phone will be charged $2.50 per call plus airtime and taxes. That’s an increase of $0.50 from the current rate. This is certainly not goods news, but this probably won’t affect a whole lot of you folks out there unless, of course, you’re a frequent caller of this number.

For more info on this, you can head on over here to check out Rogers’ announcement, or here for Fido’s.
