its not 80$ for all carriers.

If i HUP through telus, as long as i dont cancel, id be saving $245 on the iphone.

Telus lets you keep your existing plan as long as you add features to make it a minimum $70 plan.

I currently have the 60$ 5gb plan and i can add 10$ worth of features and get the iphone as a HUP.

If i was contract free:
Iphone6+ 64gb no term: $970

With term:
Iphone6+ 64gb 2 year plan = $485
Adding 10$ per month x 24 = $240

Total Spent on 2 year contract = $725

As long as i dont cancel my contract, id be exchanging 2 years of my loyalty for a discount of $245 on the phone.

the math is a bit different if you have a cheaper plan and if you already meet the $70 minimum, then you'd be saving $485 on 6+ 64gb.

I've changed my carrier once in the last decade and it was to take over my moms account.
