Help for a cellphone and phone plan on ODSP
Hello,
I was wondering if anybody would be able to guide me on what might be the best and cheapest way to get a both a cellphone and cell plan. I'm on ODSP and with several medical expenses, my budget is pretty tight. I've never had a cellphone before as I haven't been able to afford it or justify the cost, having been able to do well enough without it. Not having people to call, not going places and needing Maps, etc. But it has been causing some issues, especially since the pandemic started and everything relying on calling.
With Black Friday right around the corner, I've wondered is something might be possible. Admittedly, I'm a bit of a power user but know I have to balance that against my finances. But I have a small bit of savings if that helps that part of it though. I saw that Koodo plan for $30, but the part about it being Veing .your Own Device makes it inaccessible to me unless I can buy a phone for that.
Please and thank you for advice and guidance.
