Hi, been with Bell for 18 years. Tired of the plans vs the price. And they keep going up over the years. Seeing some of the comments in this form it make me undecided whether I should change from Bell. I'm tech savvy but don't need the hassles of a poorly run server. Will I be sorry down the road? Thanks, Rick

That's hard to say. I personally don't have a complaint regarding PM. I have been a customer for 5 years. My biggest concern in the beginning was that there was no live service here in case I needed to speak to someone about my account.
In the 5 years, however, I've only had to message them once, and that was about 3 months ago. That interaction was unfortunately not pleasant. In the time I have been a customer, I have been on the same plan without any price increases.
The refer a friend program is good. The 5% points back is good. I don't know of any other telecom company that offers that, not even the parent company.
I am concerned however with recent posts about issues with ongoing system failure to update addresses, credit card information, cache issues and few other complaints. These are things that seriously needs to be fixed by Telus and passes down to PM for better customer satisfaction.
The other benefit is that you are not locked in to a contract. If you don't like it, you can port out at anytime.
Choose wisely.

oh @TinkerTown i missed your original post, I thought you said PM price gone up
Yes, you should change to PM, it only cost you $29 to get 20GB here!! ! And get a friend code to save $10 one time for activation

HI @TinkerTown
are you on the $10 plan? Other than that plan, no price increase as far as I now
Yes, the ending of legacy rewards will hurt, almost like a $7 price increase for most of us. But if you are on $13 plan now, or even $15, you really cannot find another monthly service that is as cheap as PM even without the legacy reward. With the new plan, you will still earn 5% discount in points form 10 points, that is $10 discount, every year
Yes, some people will try to sell you another network. But that is not an as relaible network as Telus network and it is an annual plan, you are locked in for full year
