While the CRTC's announcement about cheaper phone plans is promising, I'll reserve my belief until I see these cost-effective options firsthand. I prefer to adopt a 'seeing is believing' approach and await the actual unveiling of these plans to gauge any tangible positive changes.
I'm never going to leave the $15 public mobile plan. I have a travel app that let's me download e-sims for data, if I need it.
me too, but do tell about this e-sim app ๐ฎ
Let me start by saying I got a euro esim from the app and some sites like home depot block access.
dent is the app. They have a market place to buy data from people or you can buy it from them.
The sim is good in a lot of countries, like going to the USA you can still use data.. Their price is $10USD for 1GB good for 365 days and goes up to $90 USD for 10GB that's good for 365 days. Its cheaper in their market place.
They let you collect free dent daily and get 50MB free every 5 days. I don't use much data and I can usually spend the free dent I earn daily on data every couple months.
It's reality already. Just look at Freedom's $45+ plans. No more zones. The data bucket is nationwide. We might see more players as time goes on but this is already a result of this policy.
I tried to signup for Freedom but I could not retain my existing phone number since they didnโt offer services in my former area code. Hopefully this changes that, but yeah not holding my breath!
