One thing for certain is that each provider has their own unique way of pissing you off, thereby making it irrelevant to which provider you go to. It’s about tolerance.

I think you missed some details on Rogers.. Their 50 gig and 100 gig plans both include USA roaming as part of the plan... "Unlimited calling, texting, picture/video messaging and data within Canada and the U.S." It's also worth noting a few things. Telus owns Koodo, Bell owns Virgin, and Rogers owns Fido. They use the same tower network as their parent company. Also worth noting, Bell and Telus share a tower network across Canada, where Rogers and Freedom/Shaw have their own tower network.

Yeah I get six months of Disney plus but $40 extra for international text?!? How crazy is that? I didn’t even know it included unlimited US calling. Customer service was so bad about explaining it! But regardless I seldom call and text the US and never text internationally. I hope I’m not on a 2 year contract!! I’m trying to get out of it. Right now my monthly Bill is $165 but that does include instalments on my iPhone 13 Pro Max.

If I was the king and could do anything I wanted, I would force all the tell coms to sell the networks, towers, etc. and prohibit cell phone providers owning any shares in the networks, towers etc. I would then sell cell phone providers direct access to the whole network. The other thing I might do is set up public telcom board that would regulate service, fees, and license anybody that has the where with all to go into the cell phone business.

You may not want the really cheap plans, but sometimes that’s all you can afford. I’m hoping to get on a $15 plan, but it says you have to pay for each photo that gets texted and I want to make sure that doesn’t just get automatically added to my bill every time someone sends me a text with a photo. If it does, I guess I just have to go without a cell phone till I’m in a better financial situation.

Get Visible+ for cell coverage. Includes roaming in Canada and Mexico. When I went to the Canadian Rockies in September, it switched seamlessly among Rogers, Bell, and TELUS depending on what was available. But in the Rockies you may encounter large areas with no cell coverage at all. In that case you could consider a satellite communicator like inReach Mini 2 or ZOLEO. If I was going it again I would buy one of those.

I believe Visible+ only allows 0.5 GB before you may be slowed to 2G speeds. So that may not work depending on your data needs.

The freedom service costs $35.00 per month for Canada wide; unlimited texting, unlimited talking and 10 g date hi speed. Given my past experience I wonder if the service is going to be acceptable? Speed test (2023.01.19, 23:00), results; ping 147ms, upload 0 kbps and download 15.0 maps. That is shitty! Second test; ping 100ms, uplload 0 kbps and dnload 16.5 maps. That is so shitty. Connection Shaw isp. Changed to other Shaw is and results are ping 36 m s, upload 15 maps and dnload 106 mbps. Better but nothing to brag about.

What about connections? I have a so called telus mobility home phone for 10.00 per month for seniors. This phone has not worked since some time before January 12. That is when I discovered that it was not working and is still not working. Yesterday I bought a cell phone. It is supposed to give me my original phone number within 5 business days. The vendor set me up with a temporary number. It does not matter how cheep it is if it does not work it costs too much. Fortunately I did not have any emergencies but the potential for a disaster is there. Telus sucks and I will never ever have any thing good to say about that xscumbag company.

bill they passed only focused upto 6 GIG data plans. Based on 2022 they wanted to improved those plan monthly rates by 25% which they did...reminder this during CoVid 19 era (2020-2021) which showed a lot decrease rates on those plans. 2021 average CAD mobile data usage 3.8GB vs 2022 5.3GB. During CoVid more people work at home with home wifi...plus some them still work at home. Now thing are trying to normalized. which make sense why mobile data usage average went up. So 2GB, 4GB and 6GB for $37.50, $41.25 and $45.00 respectively. That plans worked at 2020-2021 now it doesn't. Data buck is kind of small now. why not start with 2.5GB, 5GB, and 7.5GB for $36, $40 and $44 respectively. 12.5GB for $52, 20GB $62, and 30GB for $74 fido vrigin koodo will at least look good

Over the years in order of service, first 1980s telus excellent connection and top service. Next Roger's 2000s worst service even connection all chopped up so bad you could not understand what the other person was saying, next bell connection OK but calls were dropped way to often, wind, connection OK, service OK and cheapest available, then Shaw took over, cut 5g to 3g and raised the fee from $42.00 to $55.00. Back to telus connection good service OK. Closed all cell accounts. Tried to switch to isp telus last summer, gave up after three weeks, no one at telus knows what they are doing, the result of laying off 10,000 employees and no wage increases for the last several years. Went back to Shaw isp for unlimited g s and bullshit hi-speed for $55.00 month. I have had the misfortune of using all the big three and the bottom line is they are all way over priced and getting more shitty.
