| Bell Mobility ?
I know there have been previous threads on this topic, but they are pretty outdated.
For those on bell whats your experience like?
I am tired of getting jacked by fido and their city plan which is now like 50 bucks because I refuse to sign a contract with them. I pay like 70-80 bucks a month and I don't get data or anything cool.
So I'm gonna jump ship. If there are reasons not to get bell let me know!
I plan on getting the storm as well, the phone is too sick to not have.

well I just signed with Bell on a 3 year contract and have the blackberry storm. One thing I don't like about Bell is that their customer service closes at 5. On the two occasions I called them, their service representatives were helpful and knowledgeable. Now the Blackberry Storm. It is not as sick as you might think it is. If you use your phone a lot for email and work stuff it might not be able to keep up. How do I describe this? hmm.... lets say you are in a conversation and you are trying to scroll through your emails or check your schedule on your phone. Well this thing is so slow that it can take upwards of 5 seconds just for something to show up on the screen. Also if you have a mac, the blackberry tools are not compatible with that.

Jumping ship will only force you into a contract with Bell. Did you think of that? And it's not just Bell. Telus and Rogers too.

bell is great
my SFU plan + retention add-ons:
300 mins
6pm E/W
2500 SMS
unlimited mobile browser
Bell to bell
Caller ID/Voicemail
Call waiting/call forwarding/conference calling/detailed billing
SAF +911 included
$25.xx after taxes
If you want data, the HTC TOUCH is the way to go because it is the ONLY smartphone compatible with the unlimited mobile browser. This means you won't need to pay $30 for a data plan...
mobile browser now costs $10 and is pretty shitty on most regular phones except for the Instinct which has an html browser (still sucks tho lol)
can't wait until bell rolls out the HSPA network

Few things to think about :
1. Who is your current provider?
2. Tell your current provider (or retention dept.) that this is what you're being offered.
3. Your current provider will likely match it but if not, bite the offer with the other provider.

Ah, okay. Maybe some of the other members here may have a better plan so maybe keep an eye out. I know nothing about plans.

| How's Bell?
I'm looking to get a phone with Bell since they have a promotion running until Thursday for the HTC Touch Diamond. The bundle from the looks of it is relatively quite cheap as well.
$35.25 + fees totals around 45 per month
- 250 daytime minutes
- unlimited evenings/weekends (6PM-7AM)
- caller id + voice mail
- 500mb data
- unlimited text
Seems very reasonable, but I lack experience with mobile cellphones and the such. Overall, how would you guys see this deal? Is Bell worth it since I hear a bunch of people always bad-mouthing it and Telus. The only thing that really sucks I guess is that it's CDMA.
Thanks
