Why do they have to start up a 3-yr contract trend? It's painful enough that cellphone companies want us to stay with them for 2 years. I bet in a year or so, US cell companies will start doing the 3-yr contracts. I am still sticking with my 1-yr contract.
Yeah, though they do offer 2 year and 1 year contracts.. and at only $50 more, 2 year is pretty decent, too. What I'm most impressed with is the entry price for average Joe web surfer. $7 is going to really alter the Canadian wireless data landscape, with typical costs being in the hundred(s) for just 100 megs, there will be some celebrating by the data crazy.
You want to have discount on both phone and plan but not willing to sign a contact. Basically you are saying you want stuff for "free" if you can? If the data plan is $20 for 2 years then you will scream not fair? lol
No wonder we are still having cheap and outdated phones in Canada because everyone wants "free" phone. :(
