Cell phone plans.

[skegpro]

Did you read some of the reviews, not as good as it sounds

I donno, called Trinidad KFC just to try it out and it was crystal clear.

Called the wife's cell phone and it was good.


The only thing it is gonna replace for me is now I can remove the $10month unlimited us calling off my plan.

Gonna use it more a a calling card.

Good if you are on holidays and you want to call a landline.

$75 a month unlimited voice and data plans everywhere right now.

 

[Zrock]

Cheapest place I found is 7-11 for a month to month... $20 for 200 min and unlimited txt.. not much to add data to it...

Isnt that 75 for unlimited data?? 115 for unlimited voice and data. It was with Bell.

I see if you go over on your data plan now the speed gets reduced.

Telus has voice and 15 GB full speed data for $75, or voice and 10 GB full speed data with unlimited throttled data after 10 GB for $75.

Even at that price, they are still charging too much. I'm currently paying $100 for 24Gb of data on 5 shared lines.....getting better but still a rip off IMO.

Yep! Both my wife and I are paying 130 bucks for two phones, 10g of data each and unlimited calling in canada. We barely use 2g a month but its cheaper than what we were paying before, and cheaper still by the looks of it.

The Telus $60 plan offered at Christmas a few years ago is up to $70+ tax now. My wife is on it and we just keep replacing her phones with used off FB marketplace as she kills them since it's bring your own device.

 

[Chronic Cat]

I've been doing the exact same thing. Literally. Data is so overpriced in Canada it is unfathomable imho. Cell providers are some of the biggest crooks out there...

Then got an S7 Samsung. Hated it. Worst autocorrect and predictive text I’ve ever seen. Back with an iPhone 8 now and much happier.

You can turn both those features off in the settings menu, no need to go back to a Crapple

I pay $35 a month with Bell for unlimited Canada and US calling and text with 3 gigs of data, I rarely go over 1. Negotiate hard with them but be polite about it and they will give you a good deal.

"Free" phones are never free and in fact cost more than if you bought it outright, you finance the cost of the phone in your plan and then some. I bought a Galaxy S-8 off FleaBay for $150 almost a year ago. I just can't wrap my head around someone spending a grand on a cell phone.

Thanks for the heads up on the new plans from bell. We were spending ~250 month for two phones. Now we have an additional 8 GB of data and are paying 150 max. We will see how annoying the unlimited restricted data is after I burn up the 10 GB...

 

[morerpmfred]

We are with freedom. 85$. Ported own phones. 10 gig data on one phone. 4 gig data on other phone. No overages charges. If we go past the allotment it switched from 4 g to 3 g till end of billing period.
And unlimited calling.

We where with virgin before. Used like 8 gigs of data + a month. Now with freedom. Have never gone over 4 gigs. And habits have not changed.

 

[ABMax24]

Well that was easy. Switched from having 2 phones share 4.5gb a month for $160, to 10gb each for $150.

We changed ours today.
Really good deal. No contracts on either phone.

10 gb then slows down a bit is unlimited data. Used to go over our shared 12 gb plan.
