got it done today, got the nexus S
pros:
- dealt with my contract with rogers, no fee, no hassle
- will take any old phone as long as it turns on
- so far data speed is better than i expected, on par with rogers
- $200 credit as advertised, pay $6/mth as calculated
- got a free screen protector
cons:
- my bb curve ended up not being compatible with their network so had to buy new phone
- the $200 distributed is over 10mths
thanks for all your help guys, now gotta learn how to root/play with android!

Tried to sign up for a Roger's pay as you go so that I could port over but then I get this message:

FML. I called the number and they're currently closed. They better be open tomorrow so that I can take advantage of the port in creds and codes.
Also... TURBO E
You still selling your Nexus S? Or are you ignoring me?!

^ get the Telus Galaxy S2 X. Mine has better reception than the Nexus S
Any t-mobile phone will work too. you're paying full price, no subsidies, so why limit yourself to only what mobilicity is offering.

The coverage and reception were great around Richmond/Van/Surrey for my needs, with the exception of spotty reception up at SFU.
Also liked that Wind users got a free skimmed down version of facebook, so that was a bonus. |

In the off chance that someone was following my earlier post, I managed to open my pay as you go plan on Rogers and it worked. I ended up calling their pay as you go activation line to get everything working instead of doing it online.
This is what happened...
Get a Rogers Sim Card (Unused/brand new) - $5
Open up a Pay as you go plan (by the minute plan) - $10+tax (was the min you can add)
Get a number that I liked from Rogers - 10 mins
Go to mobilicity store (1st and commercial) and port number - 10 mins
Steal a number from Rogers then get 200 credit from mobi? - Priceless (actually its +$175)
Reminder that tomorrow is the last day for the port-in/trade-in credits!

Yup, do it before it ends, honestly the best deal ever, cause its guranteed for life.
350 a year for unlimited plan is cheapppp, phone will be 200+ but thats still good, considering unlimited plans for other companies are like, $50 a month

Weird, I can't receive incoming calls, but text, data, and outgoing calls still work :S Anyone else have this problem? Think it might be the sim. Swapped with my brothers and found out it was not my phone |

Swapped with my brothers and found out it was not my phone | If you JUST ported over, it takes about 3hrs for everything to get established.
During this 3hr process, you cannot receive calls and/or texts but can do data, send text and perform outgoing calls.

Go to a mobi store or call mobi and find out whats up?
Seeing as you can call them, why not? |
