to make things alot simplir.
no because fido phones are gsm
which need sim cards.
telus phones dont work with sim cards.
there is no spot to put sim cards in a
cell phone

On the Fido website it says:

buy phone on 2 year agreement
buy phone without contract
buy phone on prepaid
buy phone only

If I "bought the phone only", could I use it on any network? Specifially Telus.

a] Fido locks their phones, but they can be easily unlocked to work with other network providers

b] Telus, Koodo, Bell, Solo, Virgin... those companies use CDMA which doesn't take any form of sim cards or have any form of simcards...

Fido and Telus are 2 different types of networks... It's like an apple vs an orange... they're different... but they're still fruits... like fido and telus are cellular providers.

As per your topic, i can understand that you want to use Fido phones with Telus sim card. Whats your phone brand and model? Is it unlocked or carrier locked phone ? Note : If your phone is unlocked, you can use Telus sim card with it . If you have carrier locked phone, you can't use it with any networks . If you want to unlock your phone, use unlock code . You can use it with any other carriers internationally . Many of the online vendors like TheUnlockSpot.com provides unlock codes to unlock phones from network lock
