Fibe 25 $64.95 /mo.
Bell Bundle for Internet -$5.00 /mo.
$32.47 credit for months 1 to 12 -$32.47 /mo.

kudos:1 | It looks like they changed a lot of things.
Fibe 16 and 25 in Quebec used to have a 90GB and 100GB cap respectively. Now they have an 80GB and 90GB cap.
Fibe 12, 16, and 25 in Ontario had a 50GB, 75GB, and 125GB cap. Now they have a 40GB, 65GB, and 100GB cap. |

Looks like this may be one way of clawing back some revenues from their killer holiday deals. |

I'm pretty sure you could by telling them your cancelling. |

The Fibe 10 package in Quebec is also going from 75 GB to 60 GB according to the site. It better be only for new customers... I'm keeping a close eye to my allowed quota on their portal. If they drop my package from 75 GB to 60 GB, then they better have a really good offer for me, or this might finally convince this 10+ year customer here to move elsewhere. I had been staying with them recently mostly because of the inconvenience of switching. If my bill is going to increase by another 10-20$/month due to that change, I'm gone.
EDIT: while the top section says Fibe 10, the bottom section says "up to 7 Mbits in Download". Which would be consistent with the 60 GB quota it also mentions. Looks like their website is pretty borked at the moment... |

Welland, ON | It seems the more speed they offer the lower the data you can get. I had been looking at it a few weeks ago, but 125 gigs just isn't enough and no way I am going to pay they 75 a month to get whats now going to be 225 gigs.
Now I just wish teksavvy would offer fibe in my area or at least cable internet.
Buddy in BC dropped his DSL just before christmas in favour of a 2 room HD DVR with a cable company I think it was. I think he said 500 gig data, 100mbs, non of this 25 stuff and all for about $105 a month. |

Just call in and cancel, they will offer you a better plan. I signed up for Fibe25 in mid-december. They offered me 125GB cap for $39.50 a month. A few weeks later I called to cancel and they offered me 250GB cap for $42. I added another 40GB for $5 to bring my cap up to 290GB for $47/month and no contract. Better price than TSI... |

TELUS has a 500GB soft cap on Turbo 25, which is advertised as 2.5Mbps upstream.
