canuckbeliever Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Kind of done with Rogerst at this point. Extremely fed up with there BS so I am buying out the last 8 months of my contract with them at end of the month. Looking for phone plan where I get an ok amount of mins but a good amount of data (ie 1 gb or higher). I dont use calling much and with whatsapp I really don't need to waste money on "texting" as its free with it anyways. Any reccomendations?

Drouin Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 ideally around $50 not much more Found 2 semi decent ones https://shop.koodomo...lans/index.html Best part is if you bring your own phone you get 10% off your plan so it works out to be $45 for the $50 plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckbeliever Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 Not bad, here's a similar one but less mins http://www.fido.ca/w...hlyPlans/Group2 i'm on mobile right now so its a little hard to search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drouin Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Yeah that was the other I saw but forgot to post the link. Might see if one of the big boys (Bell) wants to match the koodo plan or give me something slightly better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanAvery16 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I pay $54.70/month w/rogers for: *Talk Text & Internet 2GB Promo - 2GB Data - Unlimited Canada-wide Minutes - Unlimited Sent & Received Messages Text, Picture & Video - Call Display and Voicemail - 2500 Call Forwarding Mins - Conference Calling - Call Waiting Anyone got something better? I bought my cell phone out and it still seems a bit high. Also I called Rogers to see if I could get my phone unlocked and they're saying it would cost $50. I thought it would be free considering I paid for the phone outright.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drouin Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I wanna go with wind but I heard there coverage is terrible. It would suck to be in a spot where you need to utilize your phone but your provider doesnt have coverage there and truthfully I wanna avoid that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckbeliever Posted August 6, 2013 Author Share Posted August 6, 2013 Also going to make a point for the lurkers who are interested in this convo. Talked to a couple of friends who know there stuff apparently the price of phone plans is going to be jacked up cuz the providers are going to 2 year max contracts. Apparently $50 plans now will be $70 as of August 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offensive Threat Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 WOW $70, and to think that I only pay $23.50/month for my S4 locked in a 24 months contract without any additional fee for the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I'm also cancelling with Rogers due to numerous issues they've been unable to solve in a timely manner. Which of the smaller companies has the best customer service? (I don't mind paying a little extra in exchange for the certainty that overbilling issues will be handled in an acceptable manner.)

Danthecanucksfan Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Wind has great plans. Perfect for the city. But I find the coverage frustrating. I'm visiting chilliwak and Vancouver Island etc. And it says im roaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
