British Columbia: the land of mountains, world-class skiing, exotic seaside adventures, jaw dropping real estate and a lot of people who need cell phone plans.
Since searching site-to-site can take time, let us help you out. Here is a list of 9 of the best cell phone plans in terms of data, airtime, international calling and extra perks in B.C:
GBs DATA
1) Rogers Share Everything + with Premium Tab + 60 GB $385/month
This plan from Rogers is pretty flexible. It allows you to use all the data yourself, or you can share it with your family and friends by adding up to 9 devices. It comes with unlimited Canada-wide calling and texting, and as a bonus, you can also subscribe to Spotify or texture for free for 6 months. 2-year term or month-to-month.
2) Bell Mobility Share Plans –variable pricing
With Bell, users can get a shareable plan like Rogers. You choose what kind of calling you need-international, local, unlimited or minutes, and the amount of monthly data you want. It all adds up to a certain monthly fee, depending on what you choose.
Data is being offered in 1, 2, 5, 7, 10 and 15 GB chunks of your choice.
3) Telus Shareable Plans
Telus has also broken their cell plans down into cryptic minutes/air time prices and data prices, and is letting the consumer choose what they need in both categories.
This could be handy, as it could give the buyer more flexibility and choice, but as an aside, I’m pretty sure this adds up to a larger bill than it used to.
That being said, users can add up to 9 family members on their Your Choice plan with Telus, and share data.
4) Wind Smartphone Everywhere Plan $55/month
Wind is offering users this plan that will get you unlimited Canada/U.S calling, unlimited global texting, and 10 GB of data in your home network. Available in-store only.
