[Other] [Merged] Virgin Mobile/Bell: Unlimited talk, text & 6GB data for $50/mnth *T-Bay only

[mark_in_2k]

This Plan is only for Thunder Bay and it seems that users have been telling others how to get this without living in thunder Bay, Bell has been in contact with us and they asked for this information to be removed due to users illegally getting this plan they are not entitled too.

Ditto

Just saw this posted on Mobile Syrup.

This is only for Thunder Bay, but you get unlimited talk, text (inc. international), CID, VM and 6GB data. Great for $50.

Shame it's only for Thunder Bay residents.

wow

seems like a really isolated market to target . . .

I think Thunder Bay has it's own independant telecom in the area. Bell is up to it's dirty tricks again....

Now that Eastlink is going to be a cell phone carrier in the maritimes soon, I am betting we will be seeing better deals here from the big 3 and it's flankers.

Now this is a plan. I'd sign up in a heart beat if it's offered in Toronto.

That is a good deal, I'm paying $80/mo for the same plan through Virgin :S

Looks like, day trip to Thunder Bay :-)

You'll probably get an 807 area code. Anyone who calls you from your local calling area will be billed long distance. Not exactly useful for people in the GTA.

It's pretty awful that they extend this offer to Thunder Bay while everyone else pays twice the price for a comparable plan. I'd assume it would cost Rogers more to operate their network in Thunder Bay than it would to operate in Toronto.

You are not correct, you can have any area code with this plan

Why Thunder Bay? Is there something special there that I don't know about?

There are no RFders there.... ?

None as there is no internet and they cannot exercise their strong online presence.

Gotta love how they separate us like cattle so they can price discriminate.

This deal could be even hotter if they'll allow you to get the 10% off the monthly plan promo by bringing your own phone.

"Love your existing phone and number?
For a limited time, hook up your own phone on a month-to-month term with any of our Combo plans and get 10% off your monthly rate plan."
