Perhaps that's why Bell bought Virgin Mobile. Virgin has 300,000+ customers and the highest customer satisfaction among any cellphone company in Canada. |

1) MY own nightmare, er, experience, with Virgin - Don't get me started....
2) Virgin was 50% Bell-owned from the start.
3) Virgin had attracted most of those customers from Bell, and Bell essentially just bought them back - now they'll all have to leave again ? - How Ironic !

| reply to Guspaz They actually didn't "buy" Virgin Mobile, they just bought out the half they didn't own.
Virgin used Bell has their carrier anyways, so there really wasn't alot of difference. I suspect that we're either going to see the Solo brand disappear or the Virgin one. Either way they will be come the low cost BellER -- It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses. |
