i got the 25$ plan a week ago and i kinda want the 40$ plan now. is there any way to change over? i heard you cant switch plans more than once a month...

Thats what the WindTab is. I doubt most of us will finish the whole 3 + years with them. But its still cheaper than buying out a plan with Rogers/Fido/Telus/Bell.

There's no port over credit I dont think. It was just the WindTab that I got.
I went with their $40 Unlimited plan.

I don't know about their policy on changing plans, but however the $40 Unlimited Deal expired on December 24th.

Deal is extended to 31st.

you can, but the only way is to activate a new number and get a new sim.

i was on the 6months 50% off promo for $17.50/month, i was on my 5th month and i phoned wind CS and ask them if i could switch to the the $25 plan, i told them that its like a upgrade coz the new plan costs more.. they just kept telling that me that i need to activate a new number and buy a new sim.

so i got my bill today

Anyone have any clues why its $50.51 + tax (56.57) instead of $40 + tax ($44.8) ?

too tired to call now but i emailed and thought id ask here :D


edit nevermind i got it now i missed the 4th page of the bill that showed the payment is for 5 weeks instead of 4

they pro rate the first month and then pre bill you for the second month

i got my $40 plan on dec.24
then i got my first bill on dec.25 wtf? on the bill it stats that the billing period is dec.23 to dec24.
anyone know whats going on?

That is normal. Your billing period just so happened to be on the closing date.

You got billed for one day of use (24th) within that billing period. On the 25th, you pay in advance for your services.

new wind mobile Holiday all in the family $20 always shout deal for everyone!

Anyone know if I can get a SIM for free? I plan to register a plan and port a number, but if I could, I'd rather not pay for a SIM which is required for them to take my money every month.

^ If you buy a phone then yes, if not, you'll need to pay for it.

I'm planning on going to wind today. Which areas will be "roaming"? will Vancouver(East)/Richmond be alright?

Yes, should be alright, all those areas should be covered. If you get charged roaming in Vancouver or Richmond, you could call in and they will credit you back

East Vancouver and Richmond is fine with Wind, I'm always in those areas and have reception 99% of the time.

I just cancelled my Fido contract, but I have to pay 1 more month. Does the wind tab offer end on Dec 31st? Also, does the wind tab cover for all phones?

http://www2.windmobile.ca/en/Pages/Offers.aspx

This is the list of all current offers from wind. The WindTab expires dec 31 and its up to $150 towards any phone

I feel like suspending the account since I'm not using it

how much you pay for suspending it?

$30 for up to 6 months

deal extended to jan 5

i would so jump to the $40 deal, but i dont really need mobile internet... i have wifi at work and home... i dnt usually go out...

maybe if i had a good phone, i would get the $40 deal.. but i dont want to spend $400+ a phone

Does anyone know a Wind Store near east van that has Cantonese speaking employers?

^^ u can hop onto the skytrain and go to Crystal Mall ;) they barely spoke english

what the fuck im trying to help u and u fail me? -_-

My bad, I accidentally pressed the fail button.. I meant to press the thanks button. Anyways, thanks for the info we got the nokia 5230 from wind on the $15 plan.
