My two year term just ended with Bell and I am looking for a good family plan. Hopefully it is better than two independent single plans...

My basic needs are like this:
- max two year contract
- between 300 and 500 total minutes
- called ID (for both phones)
- one mailbox (for one of the two cells only)
- most basic cell phones. (no need for camera/mp3/video)

I don't care much for the unlimited nights/weekends since from experience not many people are willing to talk on the phone after 9PM.

Up to now I found these plans (from their websites):
- Fido's Talk 'n Share 55$/300+300min/Unlimited but they have a rather bad coverage here in Montreal
- Bell 60$/300+300min/Unlimited
- Rogers 60$/500min which kind of sucks for Rogers in terms of a good deal

Thanks.

If you are dropping $60, you are better off getting 2 seperate plans at $25 each from Rogers.

Actually I would go for less than 60$ if there would be something.

I looked a bit more and found that Telus has a plan with: 40$/375min/Unlimited which up to now beats the others.

I am also thinking that by finding some better deal elsewhere (other than Bell) I could "negociate" with Bell for some interesting package.
Lets not forget that Bell has a better coverage than Telus, Fido and probably even Rogers.
