Other Canadian Cell Carriers Join The Unlimited Party [UPDATED]
It looks like Rogers isn’t the only one to have an announcement involving unlimited cell phone plans. Other providers quickly joined the party:
- Bell is joining the party by offering new plans that seem real familiar. If you take a look at their press release, they’ve pretty much matched Rogers.
- Telus is next on the list with eerily similar plans as well according to MobileSyrup.
- Fido which is owned by Rogers has a $57 plan that offers unlimited text and talk and 1GB of data. That doesn’t sound half bad to me. The only catch is that it is a limited time offer until November 25th.
So, is this good for Canadian cell phone users? Or shall I be cynical and chalk this up to this up to the oligopoly that exists in the Canadian cell phone marketplace? Post a comment and share your thoughts.
UPDATE: Telus has now issued a press release on their plans.

That Fido plan seems pretty good considering Long Distance in Canada is included. Still, if it’s contract, I’m not interested. Rogers already has my first born child.
