| $40 4GB data unlimited Talk/Text Public Mobile
Just made the switch today. Great plan offered by Public Mobile.
Prepay $120 for 90 days to get unlimited province wide talk and unlimited international text and 12GB of data which works out to $40/month with 4GB/month.
Use auto-pay to save $2/month
For each person you refer, save another $1/month
Used to be on Rogers Corp plan but due to price increase, this new plan was a no brainer to switch over.

How is the coverage with Public Mobile? This kind of intrigues me to switch over from my Wind 10GB $40 plan

Don't know much about Wind coverage but heard from friends it isn't that good compared to the Big 3.

This plan pretty much kills all other competitors.

Unfortunately deal applies to province wide Talk. For canada wide, you can buy long distance add on.
You wont be able to receive calls outside your home province.

so if you forget to renew your screwed?

Correct, grandfathered as long as you're a customer and renew.
Best to set to autopay or have enough in balance so that it renews by itself.
If you forget, there may be some leeway but I wouldn't chance it. Set to Autopay and don't have to worry come renewal time

2) once received set up plan then port number
3) cancel with rogers

Usually when I get a call when I'm out of province, I call them back on some local/internet line anyways. So in theory, one LD package should last me... forever.

Oh wow I thought it was only for the first 90 days and then you're screwed. But if you can renew that is pretty sweet. I'm on the Koodo $48 though but this would work well for my parents!
