Re: Telus-Bell Merge Rumor - Say Whaaaaaaat!?!?
There's a reason Bell Mobility is bleeding customers in record numbers, if a merger like this ever happened, I would go back to Fido in an instant. Bellus, I'll pass!

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 !

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
