The documents from Bell state the deal is available to customers who are upgrading or activating a two-year Premium or Premium Plus plan, while on Virgin users need to upgrade or activate on a two-year Platinum or Platinum Light plan to receive the $400 bonus.

Rogers is offering the deal in-store only, on select two-year Share Everything plans, and the fine print on Fido’s offer says it is available to customers in participating retail locations upgrading or activating a two-year plan on a selection of devices.
