| Recomendation for a cell phone plan
I don't have any cell phone plan at the moment.
What are the good deal out there?
I know mobilicity and wind are the cheapest.
and I have looked at Koodo and Fido website
koodo has $37/month plan, with 150 MB data, 300 daytime, free after 5PM, unlmtd text.
Fido has $40/month plan with 400 MB ,plenty of daytime and text
this is sort of what I am looking at. I am just wondering if anyone has any other suggestion / or a good deal for new customer
I don't mind signing up a 2 year deal. especially if I get a phone with the plan. I am only interested in large screen phone (note 2, note 3, mega, Z ultra, nexus 5)
Thanks
post or PM me if you know a good deal plan at this time
thank you

You didn't really say what you needed in a plan. I'm on the Fido plan (when I signed up they offered 600mb). If you go over, the penalty is reasonable. Something like 5 bucks for 200mb. Depends on how much data you use.

I am looking for the best bang for the buck at $40/month including tax
so fido one is good.. but kind of stretching it for me *I am too cheap
makes wind mobile very enticing ....
hmm
I am hoping I can score a good deal on the phone , then I can shop for plan.

If you go Wind/Mobo just check the areas you frequent the most to see if you get good cell service. There's no point paying the cheapest price if you're not getting appropriate service.
The Fido deal to me is the best bang for your buck, given service and coverage. The fact you don't have to go on a contract if you BYOD is a plus as you save 10%.

If you want best bang for your buck, keep an eye out for promos and take that to negotiate with other providers to match

wind and mobilicity customers come in my store all the time looking to buy phones outright, but too bad theres barely any phones that work on those networks lol
option 1: buy a phone outright and sign a month to month contract (you can cancel at anytime). these rates are much cheaper as you do not get a phone with the plan.
option 2: current promotion for nexus 5 is $0 on 2 year contract with a $50 voice and data lite plan (includes 1000 anytime minutes and 500mb data + all the stuff you would get with a premium plan). I believe z ultra is eligible for this plan as well
option 3: note 3 special promotion $100 on 2 year contract with a $70 voice and data plus contract (includes unlimited talking and 500mb data, etc.)
all these plans are from Bell and all phones are unlocked. pm me for details if interested

Hmm, not sure if you're still reading this.
Best plan, IMO, is fido $39, 400 minutes, 400 mb. Or koodo's $42, something minutes, 500 mb.
If you're a heavy data user, today's plans are not going to serve you any good for what you pay for. They're like, what? $80 average for 3 or so gigs.
Look on CL for anyone who wants to give away their 5gb or 6gb. I found some who only had like 6 months left which I think is worth it to ride it out, considering you have your own smartphone or a device that can surf the net. When 6 month is up, negotiate a better deal, sign a 2 year and get a new smartphone. Best bet if you want 3 gig or better.

How much data do you need for an S4 type phone? I pretty much just browse and go on fb/instagram alot. And the very occasional (5 times a month maybe) youtube. I would probably disable instagram video.
Thanks!
Going to switch to koodo.

^ Think about how often you have wifi access as well, I was going to opt for a bigger plan initially to get more data but decided against it, good thing I did since I have wifi pretty much everywhere I go and I hardly use any data. I keep a data usage widget on my phone, I noticed that basic browsing/searching/fb hardly uses anything, streaming video is a big data killer though.
