Hi ^^ Is there anyone here with Rogers in Canada?

I was wondering what contract plans you guys have - OR if there's any decent plans with unlimited texting that arent super expensive monthly? I'm kind of new to cellphones, i'm getting one next month so sorry if I sound kind of stupid. Thanks!

Well Bell has okay plans..and my plan with Bell is for the LG Rumour- $23.00 every month- this includes unlimited TEXTING, Free Internet browsing, 200 minutes per month and the SAF is already included. But maybe its because I have connections and you need to know someone to get this special plan, o-o because this company usually gives these cheap plans to like..business people. But I used to have a plan w/ Rogers and it was okay too, but I just used it as a phone, and not for texting and what not. :X Sorry for the ranting. LOL Not sure if it even helped!

I've never heard of Koodo @__@;;; I live in a smaller city so we only have Bell, Rogers, and Telus.. and apparently Bell and Telus are charging for incoming texts now so I've been trying to find a better plan for Rogers. XD;

koodo is another service provided by telus

bell/telus will only charge you for incoming text messages if you do not have a text messaging plan

Well mine isn't contract.
I did pay-as-you-go.
and I'm on the Dollar a Day plan.

It's 35c per minute from 8-6.
and then unlimited calls on evenings and weekends.
Texting however is 15c each. :(
I'm a texter too so I want to change my plan.

411~ CLICK NAOOO.

to be honest with you i like rogers more then telus because recently with my experience with telus i swap to rogers.
with rogers its free to call anyone that has a rogers anywhere in canada thats always awesome oh and free to call fido's cell too cuz rogers owns fido. with unlimited web browsing and 2500 text msges etc unlimited evening weekends its about 50 bucks or so alittle more then that, but if u were goin on a telus plan with all that u can get from rogers you be paying $80 min , telus charge for incoming text btw if u didnt know that. I really hate the customer service with telus >< ive been with telus for more then 8 years Lol i didnt have issues with in the past because i buy a new phone like every 6 months =/ but i got the instinct and i didnt like it at all and they wouldnt exchange the phone for me and i had the phone for only 1 day =/ so becareful where you buy ur telus phones, make sure u know ur return and exchange policy.. butif u get free weekend and evening with telus its 6or 7 pm but with rogers its 9 >< but i know alot of people on rogers so its all free for me anyway.
Telus owns bell and koodo.. koodo is basicly a pay as u go phone of telus but a cheaper version. with telus phones u cant really sell it cuz they dont use a chip thing i have many phones iwth telus in my closet somewhere cant do nothing with it,cant unlock it unbrand it nothing =/
your call though..if u go with telus hope u get the htc touch diamond heard its good or go with the smart phones any other phones at telus i think its not worth getting unless u just using it to call and text not much to customize and if u do it cost money to do that like ringtones =(

before i forget yea telus has unlimited text but in fine print somewhere or at lease they dont tell u lol per month max its 500 or somethin unless u get the 10$ text.
web browsing its unlimited some phones its unlimited to only 100 sites that is on telus list... they dont tell u that either Lol yep with telus u just gotta be careful. i was shocked with i heard all this too about a week ago =/

Wow, that sounds like a really good plan ^^ If I wanted my plan the same as yours, would I just ask the people at Rogers if they have a plan with _____(what you listed above)?

Well if you want something with a SIM card...go with Rogers or Fido
But with Fido you get charged by the second and evening/week-ends starts at 7pm ^^

Thanks anyway ^^ I'll make sure to remember this for after I graduate and move out.

if there was koodo in you're city then i would
recommend getting a cell phone from there. their plans
are pretty good + affordable.. except it's not a sim card
so you cant switch you're phones unless you do it through them.

i'm currently with rogers and i think out of all the
cell phone providers i would say it's one of the better ones
(heard pretty good things about koodo too from
others + all their plans have unlimited plans i think?)
because it has good recieption and i have a pretty
cheap plan).

so yea, either one of the two are a good choice.

Oooh thanks for the info! I'll look into Koodo once I move to a bigger city, but for now its just Rogers for me. ^^ Bytheway, I was wondering what your plan from Rogers is? And how much it costs?
