which site shows the best coverage maps for wind vs mobilicity? really considering jumping ship now that this offer has resurfaced.

Wind is seriously better then Mobi at least where I am. Speeds on Wind have been 6-8 daily at home (yonge/eg) and 2-3 at work (kennedy/14th) and the latency is superior. I am switching from 40hmp to 29bts I think, voicemail is dumb I don't need it. Thanks for the post will be hitting up Wind tomorrow.

Yeeees! I was waiting for this so that I could switch from mobilicity.

Was planning to wait to see what they offer on boxing day, but this is too hot to pass up.
Does it include picture messaging?

[fingwerk]

Does this BTS include regular voicemail? This is kinda similar to the $29 Super Smart plan.

I'm with Mobilicity BTS atm as well, I might look into this once I finish my finals. I hate having any kind of interaction with these type of companies, though. I don't look forward to having to cancel with mobilicity and then do research to make sure I'm doing everything right with wind.

I like the idea of taking advantage of a windtab but by now the SGS3 is practically obsolete so it isn't really an ideal time. Plus they don't sell any nexus 4's, which would make it a no-brainer for me. Still, my Nexus S has been really wonky lately with self-freezes and restarts and the like, and I don't feel like putting a lot of effort into trying new custom ROMs for it when I'm not even sure if it's a problem with the ROM or the hardware.

is there a link to any info on this plan and what it has to offer?

[Longobongo]

Woot, i think i may switch from mobi finally even though I'm only paying $26 there.

Does this apply with WindTab+?

Crap. my prepaid year with mobi starts on the 17th. Even if i ported over to wind tomorrow they'd probably still charge me.

Why couldn't they have brought this out a week ago???

Wind destroys Mobilicity's coverage.

I have the plan from August / September and it does NOT include MMS.

So what's the difference between Unlimited Wish40 and this $29 Holiday Plan? Only difference I see is World Saver and local talk compared to Canada/US talk? So in reality, I'm paying $4 more than the Unlimited Wish $25 for unlimited data?

[hystavito]

Heh, they keep getting better. I signed up for the $100 credit, then days later switched to $150 credit pay before, and now this deal might be even better for me. Need to see the fine print, but it looks like key differences for most people between this and the $40 plan are no US/Can long distance and no voicemail, yes? It'll be hilarious if I go into the store again to switch .

Hmm, with the $6.25 discount, I'm paying about $33.75 for 2 years, but with no tab option. This is tempting me to just cancel my Nexus order (who knows when that will come) and get on this plan with a free for maybe $100 phone, I'll prob end up with Wind for the full 3 years to pay off the tab anyway.

EDIT: I wonder if this can be used with Better Together Savings.

[penguin010]

what is unlimited local calling? Say you're in Hamilton, is local considered the hamilton region, or is local including all of Wind's unlimited areas?

*** currently a mobilicity customer. satisfied with my plan right now, but the versatility/extended coverage would be worth the switch.

[aeba7]

Im on Mobi with pre-authorized payments. Are there any measures I should take if I wanted to port my number over? i.e. remove my cc#, let mobi know I'm switching etc
