I'll be porting my freedom mobile number to Koodo in September

One reason I'm switching is
because I don't want to have to meet a 50% usage requirement on freedom
mobiles network then restrict my usage while roaming. Another huge reason
Is because I don't get service in a lot of places within Edmonton and the 6
surrounding cities and I know I would have service in all these places on koodo because they run off telus towers.
The last reason I'm switching is because I realized I don't need unlimited data
especially when its throttled to the point it is, that just makes it
frustrating and not worth it. I will see what koodo offers for black Friday deals and switch my plan to one of those plans if the price is good.

BrandonA586 wrote: ↑ Yes I am because Its getting harder to meet the 50% usage requirement that needs to be on freedom mobiles network before I leave their coverage areas plus I don't wanna have to restrict my roaming usage. The second reason I'm switching is because I'm tired of not getting service inside a lot of buildings within Edmonton Alberta and the 6 surrounding cities that have home coverage.

Your second complaint is the reason why everyone is complaining about Freedom in the other thread, but for some odd reason, you defended them. You're like Two Face

As far as what I've said in the past about freedom I've realized that the building Penetration issue is never gonna change because of the frequency they use and adding towers to the affected areas in Edmonton is impossible.

Still wouldn't fix your reception issue though
