 got feedback?On Bell CDMA phones, *94 (plus) number of desired rings, controls number of rings to voicemail. *94 (plus) 5 would be the default. 2010-09-18 19:51:25 (siljaline On HSPA phones number of rings to voicemail on Bell Mobility as I've have been told by another user: (note: this are in multiples of five)
*61*6473832355*11* [enter your five interger here] 15 being network default at 3 rings to voicemail] if that's too few rings, change the value by a mutiple of 5 only, using values other than 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 - etc will change the default to an unknown value.

•Digital unlock codes. Because cellular phones in North America are heavily subsidized, most carriers don't want to see a phone they spent hundreds of dollars on end up on some other company's network. Therefore, almost every digital phone sold in North America has a 6 digit programming lock code. Without this code, it's impossible to program a phone with a new new number or network settings. These lock codes are owned by the company which sold the phone in the first place. Bell also has a policy of not activating "foreign" handsets on their network. This type of policy is usually a standard part of a roaming agreement with another carrier. •Software. Digital Cellular Phones are more and more like computers everyday. The software they have in them is specialized for the network on which they are to be used. If those phones are used on a different network, chances are they will not perform very well.
got feedback?Bell mobility now supports sim cards. Phones that are of similar tech can be used. May need to manually set up for secodary 850 band 2011-01-24 22:30:42 (Devanchya by shaner Activation, S.A.F., and 911 There is a one time fee of $35 for activation, a monthly charge of $8.95 for the System Access Fee, and another monthly charge of .75¢ for 911 service. Moving and Phone Number changes. There is a charge of $20 for changing your number even when moving to a new address. As well, for any number change, there will be a charge of $15 at a Bell World store for reprogramming your phone. Plan Changes. There is now a $20 fee for any plan change, regardless of whether you're upgrading or downgrading. This is to prevent people from starting with a lower rate plan and taking advantage of promotions like 6 months Unlimited Local Talking, and then changing your plan to meet your needs after the promotional period. The idea is to be on the right plan for your needs right from the start. You can change your plan yourself at http://www.bell.ca/ Cancelling your service. The Early Cancellation Fee is calculated as $20 x the number of months remaining on your contract, or $400 whichever is less. There is no charge to cancel if your contract has expired, however it will take 30 days to cancel your account from the time you notify Bell Mobility. Hardware Upgrade You may purchase a new phone at any point during your contract, provided your account is in good standing. However, you will be eligible for any hardware rebates only once every 24 months. There are now 2 rebate time periods. You may be eligible for a partial rebate earlier if needed, but the eligibility will depend on how profitable your account is for Bell Mobility. There is also a $25 Hardware Upgrade Fee, which is paid $15 in store, and $10 on the bill. Certain corporate rate plans may have exclusions to these policies. Temporary suspension The only way to 'suspend' your account is to reduce your rate plan to a minimum rate plan, which is currently $30/month. Of course, the $20 plan change fee still applies. Serial Number Swaps At some point, you may want to swap phones with a friend or spouse. There will be a charge of $35 to swap the phones, and an extra charge of $30 ($15x2) at a Bell World store for reprogramming. Transfer of Responsibility If you are under contract and you want to have someone else take over your account, both of you must call Bell Mobility to make arrangements. A credit check will be done on the new user, and a fee of $35 will be charged.
got feedback?by shaner •Per Second Billing. As of right now, this is the only way a new customer can get per second billing with Bell Mobility. The real bonus of the corporate per second billing, is that it starts from the moment you hit send. There's no one minute minimum, so it's true per second. •Free Activation. You automatically save $35 when activating on a corporate account. There is still a $35 upgrade charge if you're getting a new phone, and it does cost $25 to move from a standard account to a corporate one. •Detailed Billing. Your bill will list each and every call you've made. •Bonus features and monthly price reductions. Most corporate plans will include some very good bonus features, eg: Message Centre, Call Display, Unlimited Nights or Weekends, or any combination of those. As well, most corporate rate plans also give a percentage discount. The base plan is almost always $25/200 mins. There are discounts ranging from 6% to 20% off of that base rate depending on how large the corporate account is. Bottom line is, whenever you walk into a Bell store to look at getting a new account, tell the rep who you work for or where you go to school. Usually, a corporate rate can be found, which can save you quite a bit of money every month.
got feedback?I did ask about Corporate plans with Bell Mobility at the store and they said that I would have to provide them with the Corporate plan. How do I know what the Corporate plan is, when I can't find anything there. They just said there were lots of corporate plans out there. They didn't even try checking for one with the company I work with. 2009-03-10 12:41:24 why should i pay for activation upgrade for a phone when i am still with your service do you want me to changed and go with rogers in stead wave the activation fee i stay with bell and everybody is happy 2010-05-18 14:03:05 by shaner Refurbished units are sometimes sold, usually on a prepaid account, and they generally have a 90 day warranty. Make sure you ask before you buy. Dead on Arrival (D.O.A.) phones Each manufacturer has different rules governing the exchange of a phone if it becomes defective soon after the original customer purchase. Generally, if a phone is less than 30 days old, and has less than 300 minutes of use, only then can it be swapped out for a new phone in the store. After the D.O.A. period, the phone must be sent in to the manufacture for repair. There are no exceptions to this rule. Your phone may be gone for up to 6 weeks. Loaner Phones Do not throw out your old phone, unless it is completely unusable. If your new phone develops a problem and has to be sent in for service, you can use the old phone in the meantime for free. Many retailers will have a stock of loaner phones for you to use in the meantime if you do not have an old phone to use. Most stores will charge $25 for the use of their loaner. Bell Mobility is under no obligation to provide you with a loaner, and the stores have to buy their own phones at unsubsidized prices, which is why they charge for for them. What's not covered Physical damage of any sort. Broken antennas are not covered. The most often seen type of non-warranty damage is liquid damage. The phones themselves usually come with a strip of litmus paper in them which will be a dead giveaway to liquid damage when the service person looks at it. As well, don't leave your phone in the car on a cold winter night. By morning, condensation can build up inside causing liquid damage. Also, extreme temperature swings can crack an LCD screen, again not covered. Extended Warranties These are actually a good deal when it comes to cell phones. Currently, Bell World offers a 2 year extended warranty for $69 with a regular phone, $109 for a data device (Kyocera 7135, Audiovox Thera, etc...) This warranty covers an additional 2 years past the manufacturers warranty. As well, this warranty gives the customer a free loaner phone and free software upgrades for the whole 3 years. Different retailers will have different warranties. Make sure you ask about how the warranty works before you buy it. Bell Mobility after sales service and warranty policies.
got feedback?We have been trying to look online for the phone number to use the extended warranty.
