How much are you paying a month?

[phongpierce]

Hi Everyone,

I just would like to know what is everyone paying a month for their voice and data plan. My friend at rogers is getting 250 Daytime, Evenings and weekends at 6, unlimited text, voice, and 6 Gigs for $55.00. Is anyone else getting something like that with Telus? Please share. Thanks

I am with Telus and I pay about $90/month for much of the same, maybe the only diff is call display voicemail, call waiting. We should all band together and force the cell companies to give us a better deal. We are all getting ripped off, the American plans are so much better, no long distance all the call features free.

I'm with Fido and i got their retention plan. They offered me a very good voice plan for 18bucks taxes in, but i asked for data/additional minutes. And to my surprise, they offered me:

350 Daytime Minutes (250 + 100bonus minutes)
Unlimited Weekends / Evenings starting at 5pm-8am
Unlimited Text
6GB Data ($5 per addition 500mb overusage. I never go over anyways)
Caller ID
Voicemail
Unlimited Network Calling to Rogers/Fido Users

40.58/Month

Taxes in i pay 45.86 bucks and every month is consistent

Unlimited Voice 35, 6Gb data 30 (credited), loyalty package 15 (callerid, voicemail, callwaiting) 10 a month total

fischkind, can you help me please....they said if I knew a friend who has a plan like that and I can give them a phone number and PIN so they can verify that it is true, they can give me the same deal....please PM me if possible....i would really really appreciate it

$130/month

Unlimited minutes to North America, 24/7
6 GB Data
Voice mail 10, caller ID, etc...pretty much everything they can offer.

Only way to ever possibly pay over $130 a month is to go over 6GB data or take my phone overseas and use it. I'm very happy with this plan.

LoL

WTF? I have been with Telus for 11 years (since i was 17 started pay as you go) and today i called cause my contract is coming up and they pretty much shafted me. I am paying $64/mo taxes in for pretty much unlimited evenings and weekends. 5 fav numbers and 500MB data... How are you guys getting 6GB?!

They offered me some BS plan that is called Student $55?

200min
10fav numbers
unlimited evenings and weekends 6pm-7am
Unlimited txt (which i dont use)
Conference calling (dont need)
Call Waiting
Voice Mail 3

plus i had to pay for caller idea for discounted rate for $5 instead of $8. $60+tax for that? No thanks

[tedmond]

just tell them rogers offered you a better deal, and you want to switch. im sure they will keep give you a very good deal to keep you as a customer.

I just switched from Rogers to Telus a month ago and i'm gettiing:

200 daytime minutes
Early nights (6pm) and weekends
Unlimited outgoing and incoming text, picture and video messages
10 Favourite Numbers
Free Caller ID (compensation due to a CSR screw up when I initially signed on)
Unlimited North American long distance
1 GB DATA (more than I will ever use per month)

My monthly bill is $70.50

I'm happy with that. I was paying over $88 a month with Rogers and that was without the unlimited long distance.

[seaners]

10+ year customer, currently paying $85 + tax

$35 Unlimited Local Calling (not zoned)
$25 500MB
$10 BES Service Book
$10 Loyalty Package 15 (CID, VM10, Unlimited Text)
$5 100 Long Distance minutes

It's not the best, but it will do until my contact expires in July. I was paying less, but I had to give up most of my retention credits when I switched to the unlimited calling plan. Loyalty is not budging right now, so I'll wait until I'm near the end of my contact and start playing hardball with them.

[ravageur1972]

55$ + 8$ (some options)
unlimited national call after 18 hours/week and unlimited in weekend
2 gb data
10 fav number
call waiting/conference call
unlimited text messaging
200 min long distance call
voice mail 5
call'S display number

i'm with telus since about 15 years

After taxes my bill comes a few dollars shy of $90. My plan breakdown is as follows.

$30 plan which includes 200 minutes/unlimited incoming calls
$30 6 GB BlackBerry Data
$7 extending my evenings & weekends to 6pm
Voicemail 25 - free
Caller i.d. - free
100 U.S & CDN long distance minutes - free
Unlimited international text messaging including free texting while I'm in the states + unlimited picture/video messages - free

I've been with Telus for 7 years so my plan was put together through their loyalty department.

Before I way paying $50+ taxes for less minutes, less fav's, 500MB and I believe 8PM was my free calling. Not a bad plan, but IMO it should only be around $50 total for this package instead of the $62.15 I'm paying now.

[southnam]

I'm paying 30 + SAF and Fees of 7.70 = 37.70 plus tax a month
I have:
Supertalk 10
250 daytime, unlimited E/W after 7 pm
Unlimited Inc (Credited)
100 Cdn LD (Credited)
CID/VM (Credited)
250 text (credited)
1 gig Data ($20)

But unforuntately contract is up in 4 weeks and they said numerous times they will not let me keep my credits and are trying to get me to sign a new contract of at least $50 even though I already straight out bought a new BB and don't need a new phone.
Only thing i would love is to get more text and I would def sign a new contract.

So is it true that if we find another person with a contract we like on Telus we can get them to match it. I haven't heard anyone able to do that unless it's like a another family member etc...

If this helps someone else.. that's great.
