Canadian Bills Fan Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 And what kind of plan do you have and who are you with? I have 2 GB of data, unlimited nationwide calling/text caller id and voicemail $70 per month With Bell CBF
ExiledInIllinois Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 About the same but 15GB a month... 4 lines though. Wife, son, daughter and myself... Just over 2 bills a month. As I shake my head in disbelief. Oh... Verizon.

PromoTheRobot Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) $180/mo for 3 Samsung Galaxy 6's with unlimited calls and text and 10GB shared data on VZ. (Includes a corporate discount.) Edited June 3, 2015 by PromoTheRobot
ExiledInIllinois Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 3 lines, 2GB/each of data, unlimited everything else - just over 2 bills, as well. Also VZW. Mine is closer to 250... Sometimes it goes over like the 80 dollar package I bought when my son went to Europe. $180/mo for 3 Samsung Galaxy 6's with unlimited calls and text and 10GB shared data on VZ. (Includes a corporate discount.) That's about right... Sounds like Gug is getting boned... The only disocunt I got was as old as the hills. Back when they were Ameritech, there was a gov't employee discount... I think that's still on Verizon... It's only like 15 bucks or so.
boyst Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 1 line. Unlimited text, pix. 450 day minutes. Unlimited Verizon, weekend and night minutes. Unlimited data - which I don't know if I really need any more. I seldom use data - may 1gig a month. For the national championship game I used 5 gigs on that alone. I pay $90. Verizon. And I get calls and place them where no one else can.

And I get calls and place them where no one else can. Three things I kick myself in the ass: Not getting the unlimited data early and being granfathered in. Not getting a life subscription to Sirius radio and 3: Not getting Blackhawks season tix when the team was begging me to (about 10 years ago)... I told them off and said I was a Sabres fan... Boy what a sick twist... I could have been making a TON of money selling to all the bandwagon Chicago fans... For years... Who thought the old coot would kick the bucket and the team would take off! :-( :-( I was late to grasp the concept of StubHub...

ExiledInIllinois Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 I can only imagine where you place them. He has the "super phone." It's like the Bat Phone for grass fed cattle farmers. Verizon execs: "It's Boyst on the line trying to place a call from the middle of the North 40... Switch him in stat!"
Canadian Bills Fan Posted June 3, 2015 Author Posted June 3, 2015 Wow. Canada really does have the worst cell phone plans CBF

Well, three lifetime subs, first one was $249. Second was $299. Third was $399. Still averaged out over the ten years I've had it its still not much off monthly charge. 3. Don't want it. I can only imagine where you place them.place my phone? Its in my pocket.

boyst Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 Three lifetime subs?yep. There is a catch though, they only work on Sirius units. Since sirius XM merged the merger means Sirius XM doesn't have to honor Sirius radios. So I have 5-6 Sirius units that work as backups. They also do t tell you that you can only forward the sub 3 times. And it costs $50 for the radio activation.

The last one is what I really want... I'd make a mint selling every single one of those through the season. It would be very lucrative in this market.

John from Riverside Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 About the same but 15GB a month... 4 lines though. Wife, son, daughter and myself... Just over 2 bills a month. As I shake my head in disbelief. Oh... Verizon. 4 lines, 10 gigs of data, all 3 of my family are paying rent on that stupid new plan by ATT.....just over 2 bills a month......
GG Posted June 3, 2015 Posted June 3, 2015 I just got back from WNY... Went on the Canadian side of The Falls. How does it block me from using the American towers just a stones throw away across the gorge/river? It doesn't, you're just closer to the Canadian towers, so your phone picks up the strongest signal. Turn data roaming off, and that should keep you better tethered to the US carriers. Plus the further away from the Falls & the river the weaker the US signal gets.
