CRTC has ordered the Big 3 telcom firms to slash prices by 25% within next 2 yrs.

Will PM loose customers back to the big telcom providers?

Even if they come down by 25%, the cost would still be quite a bit higher that at PM.

@gjong26 Believe it's only post-paid plans up to 6 GB/month.

Who knows, PM's pricing is already meeting the True North affordability or whatever it is. Plus non of the top tiers offer the opportunity to lower your bill the longer you are with them through loyalty rewards. Add the other ways to lower your bill and some will have no reason to leave here.

It's a hard one to call. Nobody knows what the outcome will be. Short of cancelling this service, customers here don't have to take any action. We are free to make our own choices.

@gjong26 there will probably be some cuts here too, since its a 25% percent cut. I don't see them just slashing their higher end prices.
