Was on Rogers but got fed up with poor coverage when contract expired. Was on Bell but got fed up with "new charges" as they decided to expire what turned out to be "promotions" and coverage locally got worse. Went to Wind. Half the price for similar coverage. I don't go into Wind Away areas too often, but the roaming costs on Wind are only about 5c per min more than the LD charges I used to pay on Bell when roaming in Bell territory ... so, the difference of $30 could cover a LOT of roaming. My phones can be used in Europe by changing SIM. Originally had a Nokia phone that decided to hang up on UMTS calls ... but worked fine on GSM calls! Changed to a Blackberry and it's great. It's getting paid off slowly. Call quality is fine. 6 March 2014 ... Update Coverage slowly improves. The blackberry works better in lower signal areas than the Nokia did. Managed to lose my sim while travelling abroad (used a Lebara sim in europe) and Wind store replaced it n/c and within 5 minutes (powering up a blackberry is like pouring mollasses ... S L O W) I'm still happy I'm with Wind. 25 Sept 2014 ... Update Still works just fine. The blackberry is its own pain in the butt ... but I can't blame Wind for that. The reduction in roaming costs is great. 15 July 2015 ... Update Still OK ... signal strength where I live is a bit lower than it used to be ... and getting that message actually to them is hard. Considering I don't use it much at home except the odd text, it hardly matters. I will be shedding the blueberry soon ... don't like it! member for 22.2 years, 10334 visits, last login: 12 days ago updated 8.6 years ago
