FS - $54.72 Samsung Link Qwerty Prepaid Cellphone with Virgin

[d182]

Walmart's selling the phone for $58.83 (anniversary sale)
FS is selling it for $99.99 prepaid with Virgin.
Price beat at FS and get it for $54.72 + tax.
If you activate the phone by Oct 1, you can get a $50 activation credit (http://virginmobile.ca/pages/en/sexy/) that's valid 60 days after the credit's applied to your account.
Its almost* like getting a free phone :)

Has anyone successfully done the PM?

If FS is selling this phone as a prepaid through Virgin, wouldn't that mean it would already come with a pre-activation amount on it? Then you wouldn't be eligible for the $50 online credit?

I dunno just my 2 cents.

can't they come up with their own designs?
all they make these days are just imitations of iphones, HTC slide out QWERTYs and blackberries, no innovation at all.

there are only so many looks that work, of course its going to look like those phones. you could say the blackberries look like htc's or vice versa.

now why dont you go complain about how eggs all look alike?

No, virgin is using Bell network.

Try this phone in store before you buy. I was looking at it due to the cheap price and IMHO the QWERTY keypad really sucks. The keys are tiny and feel cheap and I know I would make lots of typos using this.

Hi DKIMWONG,

May I ask which future shop you went to in North York to successfully price match this phone? Also do you remember the name of the sales guy you talked to? I would like to go tonight and get the exact same deal you got. Thanks for sharing.
