Moblicity launch

Well it's available in Toronto now, I guess Vancouver will be later this year. Interesting pricing scheme: All plans are unlimited, you just pay for the features you want to use. No contracts either!

Unfortunately there is no mix-and-match. For instance, it would be great if you could do unlimited data and voice, and nothing else..

But there you go, a 1700/2100 network for Canada finally. More importantly, you have choices now.

I'm hoping they launch in Vancouver soon.

I need to jump ship from Rogers to the $65 plan.

Interesting. Too bad in order to get data, you have to get the whole shebang.

Yeah, for me it would be perfect to have unlimited data + pay as you go voice... If they could do that for like $20-30 that would be sweet

Thankfully that's about all I pay anyway for unlimited data and voice

But for Canada, that would be awesome

The big one is.. how big is their "home zone"? There's no mention of roaming..

Sucks that you have to hit $45 before you get voicemail though. If they included that for $35, I'm there in a second. Hell, I'd jump from Wind, which is what I've been eyeing recently.

Been thinking about my phone plan lately and if they had these plan right here right now, I'd be all over the $65 plan. Too bad there is no $35/$45 plan + data.



Edit: I looked on their site and if you use a BB, then you can add unlimited BIS for $20.

Also since there are no contracts etc. Do you think you have to buy a phone from them to use their plans? Or just pay for the plan and a sim and use your existing phone, given it is capable on their network.

You shouldn't ever have to pay for a sim card.. They are worthless. If you have a phone, I'm sure you just pay for the first month, and start using it.

Hopefully it'll be ready for when I come back to Vancouver this summer. It'll be nice to just pay the $60 or whatever for the month I'll be there rather than the fucking stupid ridiculously overpriced prepaid cards from Fido or Rogers. 2100 MHz 3G is of course a huge bonus
