Koodo 10GB plan 60$ per month AB/BC/ON only

New promo on Koodo for 10GB data for 60 per month. I have heard this includes unlimited talk and text as well. Do we expect anything like this on public or will i be making a switch as my renewal comes up in a couple of days

@taylor7787 plan is only AB/BC

Where did you see ON?

Plan is only 5GB

(read the fine print)

Plan is price match to Fido (who actually has more features than Koodo)

Nothing to do with Koodo marketing

Bell is also offering this. It's a real 10gb plan for 60 not a 5 plus 5 but its only canada wide text. International text 5 more a month.

Quebec already has great plans.... Videotron forces competition.

Videotron has the worst network, just like Rogers... I don't have network at university... And I believe Videotron's plan are pricier than virgin / koodo / fido.... I don't see any competition at all, just canadians getting ripped off...

@bilal684, but the plan costs in Quebec, are lower across the board, compared to BC, AB, and ON, where there really are no other competitors.

I do agree, Videotron is Rogers, as they use them as their roming partner across the country.

This best describes Public Mobile so far during the 2017 promo season. It is likely to be more of the same to year end.

At the end of the day, we are just mere customers not decision makers. The best way to influence the decision makers is to vote with the wallet. Don't do the price match thing or ask for price matching. Go where the deals are and let market forces drive the business decisions.

I am assuming that there will be no plan for PM, Telus want people to migrate from Prepaid to postpaid. On the other hand For some promos to arrive to Ontario, this is really rare

@will13am, totally agree with you. If this discussed plan benefits you go for it. For me it doesn't I have way more data then I need now with the Fall Promo.

It's hard to convince people to switch from prepaid to postpaid when they will lose $ on the unused time on their prepaid plans. I would happily switch to this Koodo deal, but having just renewed my 90-day PM plan less than a month ago, I would lose over $100 in unused time to PM...

I realize that it's prepaid, but it's a little ridiculous that you would lose that much $ when switching between brands that all belong to Telus anyway. Seems like a money grab.

Situations like this show the real disadvantage of the 90-day plans.

Totally agree with you, I'm planning to switch for 30 days prepaid from now on... I joined 2 weeks ago and purchased a 90 days plan.

Debatable whether switching to the 30-day plan from 90-day is a good idea or not. Being on 30-days makes it easier to switch to another carrier if you find a good deal, but the 30-day plans are more expensive than the 90-days plans (hence why they are offered).

I disagree. We all make decisions based on the best available information at the time the decision is made. Hindsight is 20/15, but nobody has a time machine. If you are thinking long term, then sucking up the losses due to the 90 day contract you just signed is a tiny bump on road. What's to say that Public Mobile would not surprise everyone with a scorching hot deal next week? Nobody knows the future and there is no point in lamenting about the past.

Do you know how often PM makes great deals? I joined 2 weeks ago and I cannot wait hehehe 😄

Term have been revised since initial post (error or deliberate?)

Even Fido is now a true 10GB plan (funny to anyone who signed up on original 5+5 I hope they call in & switch)

Surprisingly Bell & Telus are also offering in ON now (still no Fido yet)
