CRTC reaches major milestone to make cellphone plans cheaper for Canadians
The CRTC announced on Monday that it's reached an important milestone to increase phone services competition in Canada.
Cheaper phone plans for Canadians could be closer than we think.
On Monday, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) announced that it’s reached a significant milestone in increasing phone services competition in Canada.
You're viewing a single thread.
While the CRTC's announcement about cheaper phone plans is promising, I'll reserve my belief until I see these cost-effective options firsthand. I prefer to adopt a 'seeing is believing' approach and await the actual unveiling of these plans to gauge any tangible positive changes.
I'm never going to leave the $15 public mobile plan. I have a travel app that let's me download e-sims for data, if I need it.
me too, but do tell about this e-sim app 😮
Let me start by saying I got a euro esim from the app and some sites like home depot block access.
dent is the app. They have a market place to buy data from people or you can buy it from them.
The sim is good in a lot of countries, like going to the USA you can still use data.. Their price is $10USD for 1GB good for 365 days and goes up to $90 USD for 10GB that's good for 365 days. Its cheaper in their market place.
They let you collect free dent daily and get 50MB free every 5 days. I don't use much data and I can usually spend the free dent I earn daily on data every couple months.
It's reality already. Just look at Freedom's $45+ plans. No more zones. The data bucket is nationwide. We might see more players as time goes on but this is already a result of this policy.
I tried to signup for Freedom but I could not retain my existing phone number since they didn’t offer services in my former area code. Hopefully this changes that, but yeah not holding my breath!
