1. Unlimited incomming/outgoing
2. Unlimited texts
3. Voice Mail ( atleast 10 messages)
4. Minimal Data plan for BBM
5. Some kind of Canada/USA long distance

If anyone has any ideas, id love to hear Thanks .

Where are you located? Will you be traveling lots? Inter provincial/US/International. What do you expect your monthly data usage to be

Having that info should help us point you in the right direction.

Im in Kamloops B.C. , I dont ever travel at all. But i do race cars and buy parts from the USA , so a few minutes a month would be nice to call there. And half of my family is in a different part of B.C. , so, some Canada long distance is nice. I currently only have the $10 Data lite plan form telus, and that seems to be enuff for me. My current plan with telus is

Plan
Rate Plan: Unlimited Voice 50
Cost per month $50.00/mo.
Included with your plan

Family Calling LD
Canadian LD @ $0.40
SPARK Sampler
Free Local Birthday Calls
Family Calling
911 Emergency Access Charge
Conference Calling
Outbound Call Display On
Call Waiting
Voice Mail 3

Then my add ons are

Add-ons
Caller ID $8.00/mo.
Caller # ID Present $0.00/mo.
Msg 2500 $10 - 1 yr free $10.00/mo.
Data Lite 10 $10.00/mo.

So a total of $78 before taxes and fees

Do you think my plan is good enough already? Should i just add the long distance? Or is there better plans out there?
