Create your best budget plan for BYOD
As a Canadian we are paying high price for our cell phone plans. I did some research and find out an alternative for the reliable voice call, I tried VoIP, which is the cheapest option but I found VoIP call is not reliable for me because I don't have a home phone and 100% depends on my cell. I am thinking to do something like this:
Sign up for public mobile unlimited provincial talk plan for 60$/90 days. With Auto pay the plan cost will be 54$/900 days or 18$/30 days.
Get a Tbaytel SIM card and pay 10.42$/month to get 1.67 GB of canada wide 3g/hspa+ data/month.
So your total monthly cost is going to 18$+10.42$=28.43$.
But for this setup you need
1. A dual SIM phone which can work on both 3g/4g together. One of the cheapest best phone is xiaomi redmi note 3 pro to work with this setup. There are many other phone but I don't have the list, you have to find one or somebody here can share his knowledge please.
2. You have to get a Tbaytel prepaid data Sim card, it's hard to get but somebody here in RFD can help you to get it.
3. There is no texting option for this setup, but you can get talk+text plan with public mobile for 5$/30 days extra.
4. Free alternative of text option is to install Fongo and use the free texting with a local area code phone number. This number is going to be different than your public mobile primary phone number, if that's an issue then go for the 5$ more option.
Please share your opinion, thanks in advance.
