However, I'm sick of hardly having any signal wherever I go, so I'm moving ro Rogers. I'll likely be on something similar to this...

250 mins during the daytime mins.

CID, Voicemail, 125 Text

2MB Mobile Internet (Maybe)
SAF + 911

Not *quite* as good as my bell plan, but GSM phone + signal just about everywhere to me makes it worth it.

[Sohjonn]

some of the best plans can be found on CDMA networks, such as Telus and Bell but you have to go corporate, the downside: CDMA phones.

Yeah, I know T_T

I'm on the Best Buy Corporate Plan right now. Honestly, it's jam packed with everything I'll ever need. On the other hand though...I've *really* had it with not having signal ANYWHERE at my school.

Considering I spend a good 20+ hours a week on campus during the school year, I'll bite the bullet and take a little cut in minutes/features. It's not a big deal though, I didn't use my phone to its fullest extent anyway.

Forget the plan but I hardly use it.

[snplow]

How exactly do you guys get on a corporate plan? Right now, I'm signing up with Fido where it will be something like:

- 150 Daytime minutes
- Unlimited evenings + wkends (starting at 7)
- Unlimited incoming
- Caller ID
- Name Displayed
- Voice Message (10 saved)
- 50 txt msgs

and with tax and all, it will probably come out to be around ~$47!! (tax and SAF included)

Mind you, I am a new customer (I am signing a 3yr contract with Fido) and never had a cell phone before, but I can still cancel my plan since my 15 days are not up. Do you guys have any suggestions as to what I can do to improve the deal?

(Note - I got this at www.studentphones.com)

[ranarajan]

try negotiating with themm before the 15 days r up...

chek out these two links to get idea how to negoiate with them..
u can get all that for lik 37 bucks or less including tax... u r getting riped off big time. dont use the phone for over 30 mins till u get the right plan, and moreover, even if u r over 30 mins, go head and tell them to cancel, even if they say 400 dollars i quarantee you they wont cancel you, they will negoiate with u, .... if all fails and it comes down to the cancellation, ask them: "when i go to the other telephone company, will this number be ported out today" they will say no, use that opportunity to hang up, say:"ill call telus or wutever first"

dont mention rogers when you r negoiateing, they dont care, its the same company

[Evil Baby]

Wow, I'm liking those Bell corporate plans, and bell's getting the phone I really really want. Now I have to find somebody to get the phone for me.

hmmmm, hopefully Casino Niagara gets a bell corporate plan, I'll just get my mom to sign up for me :)

[wamrage]

I won't bother listing my rogers plan as it sucks, but I've seen some great ones from Bell Corporate for the Toronto Fire Dept. lately.....around 25$ total (including taxes, etc.). I just can't handle dealing with bell anymore.

I'm on one of those Rogers retention plans.

$20/month for 250 weekday/unlimited evening and weekend minutes + $10 Every Call Value Pack (minus $5 credit for call display).

[d_jedi]

Some good plans people are on here!

I've got:
200 minutes (billed by the second after 1 minute)
unlimited weekends (not evenings)
call display
voice mail

for $29.02 after tax/SAF/etc. on Rogers.

The way I see it, this plan >> plan I had before on Bell
and Rogers >> Bell (at least for cell phones)

[mmmken]

Rogers (Retention plan)
250 Anytime Minutes;
Unlimited Incoming Calls (I had the option of this, or free Rogers to Rogers);
Unlimited Weekends and Evenings (starting at 6PM);
6 Months Unlimited Calling (I can activate that credit anytime);
Free Caller ID;
and I can go pick up any phone I want for free (Since I've never got their free phones ever for like 6+ years, the credit adds up).

All this for 20 bucks - and 26.95 after network fees (911, etc).

With the unlimited calling stuff.. I use around 10k minutes per month.

^ Why do you need 3 cell phone plans?

[marcus]

I'm with Sasktel:
I got a promo plan a couple of years ago.
$29.68 after taxes and SAF
200 min Anytime.
Unlimited Evening and weekends starting at 6pm.
call display incoming / outgoing
three way calling
call transfer
call waiting
Voice mail.
Long Distance .10/min
And I believe it includes cell to cell free calling.
Oh yeah forgot with Sasktel when you bundle it with High speed you get $10 off your home phone bill.

[ranarajan]

telus (mines)
i got the epp 17.30

The 25 dollar student plan with
150 mins+50 mins extra for 12 months
