I have been missing some text messages recently as well. Fortunately, I mostly rely on Whatsapp instead, and that has been working fine.

^ Hopefully it's good! My sister decided to go with the 50% off plan at Mobilicity, and she's not liking the reception so we decided to switch (I was Telus). I attend SFU, so hopefully it's not an issue..got an upgrade to my phone though

For like a week lol She was complaining about how phone calls are always very choppy.

For those who go to SFU..

Went up to SFU today, although I only had 2 classes. Didn't really have the chance to check out the reception and what not, but noticed I had little to no signal in classrooms including the 9001 (text sent failed 2-3 times before it worked). Hallways seemed fine though.

^ 9001's always been horrible. Next to no wifi in there.

How were the other rooms / your past few weeks of experience?

the speed isnt even close to 21 Mbps

I cannot advise going with Mobi anymore, unless you are a super cheap guy and promise not to complain about their service here.

you get what you pay for.

For only a few bucks more, Wind, is a way better choice.

If WIND offered a monthly plan including VM for $30 under with UL data and US text/MMS, I'm switching. The data speed for Mobi is unusable. I can't even get a perfect radio stream without having to stutter every 1-2 minutes.

Something to keep in mind.

considering their $30 plans start today, i find it hard to believe anyone cannot afford to try wind.

When Fido was going down they were offering crazy good plans to gain customer base and look more attractive to a buy out. After Rogers bought them all old Fido plans were honoured for previous customers, and they got to use Rogers' better network coverage. Worked out pretty well for customers in the end.

I'd say the market at the time (when Fido got bought up) was quite different than how things are now. Back then, the big players didn't really have a budget wireless line like they do now, so Fido was probably more valuable to Rogers at the time than Mobilicity is to whoever that might end up buying them. Additionally, with the repeated rejection of Telus' buyout proposal, it seems to me that Mobilicity might more likely have its different pieces auctioned off to different buyers.

But we'll see how things turn out in a few weeks' time...

LOL If wind did that.. how long do you think they can survive.. the cost of running a network is significantly more then what it was when robelus started up... im sure Wind would have the same fate as mobi if they continue to offer everything for that low price

That was back in February I posted that. lol
$30 local WIND, text to Canada/US, VM, data, WIND's done it before. Not sure if VM was included.
Speaking now, I'm sure that won't happen.
