I'm not 100% sure, but the bands are the same.

Bell Pearl 3G

Telus Pearl 3G

Get it unlocked and it will work! there is some companies out there that will give you the unlock codes for free. You just have to wait 7 business days.

Yes, it will work. I bought the phone from Telus today, unlocked it, and am currently using it on Bell. I went into the Bell store and the ignorant employee told me that it would not work because Bell has "new" towers. I knew this was bull[b][/b][b][/b][b][/b][b][/b] because Bell and Telus share the same type of towers. I went next door and asked the guy who worked at Telus and he laughed. Majority of the Bell employees that I've encountered are useless.

Incidentally I've got a unlocked Bell working on the Rogers network.
