Eriksson Foxtrot Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 So quite a number of us had a small discussion over SL and Teamspeak about our cellphone plans and what value we're getting out of them for the price we pay... in comparison to others. This thread, well. Not only serves as a good reference, but if any carriers are willing to 'match' other plans, then you/one of us might be in luck! To join in, all you need to do is simply type your country name, cellular provider and then paste in your rate plan with the included features and price. Feel free to opt out though, but the input would be quite interesting. I'll start off; Nation: CanadaCellular Provider: Telus MobilityCellphone: iPhone 4 Rate plan: Voice, Text and Data Bundle - $65/moFeatures included in plan:10 Favourite Numbers - Pick 10 of your most-used calling numbers and enjoy unlimited nation-wide calling and text.500 "Anytime" Minutes - Calling allowance for local calls.6pm Local Nights and Weekends - Unlimited local calling on the weekends and after 6pm on weekdays.6GB Data - Monthly data allowance.MHSI APN Access - Enables and allows access to use our data services.

Rate plan: Voice, Text and Data Bundle - $?/mo (I don't pay it directly, part of a family plan so I only pay a portion).Features included in plan:1500min voiceunlimited data and text(never use)At the moment though I rarely use it, and do everything via networks, I don't go places often, and the places I do go to have wireless I can access >:D.
