My bell plan is 95 CAD and gives 4GB/mo so I’m not sure where your numbers came from. I must have missed that deal
The problem with Freedom is that their network is tiny, but even Telus and Rogers are both offering 10GB for $75 right now.
(In the interest of keeping numbers in a format we can all compare and relate to).
I would invest in a carrier pigeon or something at that price. Sending tasty memes by pigeon...the future is now.
No, they buy major-league sports teams with the extra money.
What do your telecom providers do? Just provide telecom services?
What would you say if your PM/president candidates said they'll cut your cell phone bill if they get re-elected?
Ours just did. We only laugh because we don't believe them, not because it's a problem.
Yeah, to be believable it would need to be a explicit promise to significantly and permanently reduce the revenue of BCE Inc. - and that kind of promise would have BCE shareholders in an uproar.
As far as I can tell, they don't seem too concerned.
And US/international roaming... is so high that I just go without or buy a local SIM.
I've found trying to function internationally without my normal SIM to be essentially unworkable due to losing my ability to receive 2FA SMS codes, and since moving from the Lumia to the Pixel line-up, the phones I use no longer have dual-SIM capabilities.
Good prices and terms at least
I'm actually tempted to switch, but already on an okay plan from Public where I've learned to ration.
Just wish Freedom sold a trial plan or something for a month so I could see what it's like living with them. Paying $50 + $10 SIM + taxes discourages me.
Is it a relatively new thing?
PS. I used to be a customer but switched away because of their very limited coverage.
Meanwhile, residents of other countries just go to the mall, walk out with a plan that'll meet their needs and improves every year, and doesn't think about it again :)
I would point out that 95 CAD is 71 USD though, so you're paying about the same as the verizon line I linked.
