A plan that seems suitable is only offered in Quebec . Wonder if one switches their number to a Quebec number would then the Quebec plans become available?

@Wayworn People can only activate plans designed for their own province. If you are in Ontario, you cannot activate plan in Quebec

What about using a voucher?
The Quebec $15 plan that includes 250 mb data is just what grandma needs.

sorry @Wayworn , you cannot trick the system. I saw you said you asked agent to remove your credit card earlier
in fact, when you activated your account , you used a credit card, and that already stamped a Province settings on your account on the system. You can change address, you can change CC, you can change phone number with a different area code, but that Province settings won't change. Yours is not a Quebec account from day 1 and no way it will be now.
Only way is to setup a new account and use a credit card linked to Quebec address to setup a new Quebec account for Quebec plan

your province settings is not based on your phone number nor your address.
Plan is "locked" to a specific one when you setup on the account based on the credit card you used. Your plan will only be flagged as Quebec (and cannot be changed) only if you used a credit card linked to a Quebec address
I have no credit card info I'm my PM account.

Well the bar has to be set a whole lot higher than that. Anyone can sign up with a QC phone number and then ditch it 5 minutes later.

this plan is available to new activations only and may not be available to existing customers
on the other side, ON has a better plan $35 60GB instead of QC $35 50GB
I think the $57/9GB/90 day plan is way better than the $15 plan. 250 MB of data is so little that even sync functions would chew that up in a heartbeat. The price difference of $4 a month doesn't even buy a loaf of bread these days. I don't get why everyone is anchored to pricing for cell plans but nothing else.

Yup just spotted a never before seen for Ontario $15 plan but only for new activation and sadly only includes 100 voice minutes.

While QC has been getting better plans most the time , before this new $15 QC plan, for over a month, QC actually do not have the $19!plans like the rest of us, they have been getting worse plans

@Wayworn , what QC targeted plan are you thinking about? From what I have seen this past year, the QC customers might have had many more offers but they were not that spectacular compared to RoC. At the low end, we all had access to the $57/9GB/90 day plan. At the mid range, it was the $75/60GB/90 day plan. At the upper end, $34/50GB CAN-US. What QC targeted plan blows these 3 out of the water so to speak?

What about using a reloadable debit card ? I don't suppose those have an address associated with them...can they be used for a PQ only plan by someone starting a new acct and selecting a PQ phone number ?
nvm....I think I found how PM knows where you at...

if someone changes his number to QC, those QC plans may not available to him, as some plans are available only for new activations, and PM may not allow him to downgrade
