You will want to add (Caller ID and other features + the SAF fees)
Did I mention you have to sign a 3 year contract?
Your probably going to get this to…
$15/month: Caller ID, Who Called, Caller Ring Trax, 2,500 Sent Text Messages and 2,500 Call Forwarding Minutes
O and did i mention the minimum cancellation fee is $1199?
So lets see. iPhone for 3 years =
$199 iPhone 3G after taxes = $224.87
$60 voice/data plan + $15 voice value pack + $6.95 SAF = 81.95 + GST/PST = $92.60/month
$92.60 x 36 months (3 year contract) = 3333.60 + $224.87 = $3558.47 over 3 years!
CANADA PHONE PLANS FOR THE LOSS!
You know with the Canadian doller being on par with the US. You’d think we would see some benefits. Nope all we see is overpriced everything. At least most of the things I buy can be purchased from the states!
Now lets see what I would pay for a normal iPhone on my normal plan I have connected to my Sony Ericsson…
200 Weekday Minutes
Unlimited Evening and Weekends Past 7pm (Not 9pm like the ones above)
500 Text Messages

Caller ID

I pay $45 a month with all gst included. That $1620 + $400 iPhone = $2020 for 3 years. Thats $1300 cheaper for a way better plan then the $60 plan!!! I also have the freedom of being on a yearly contract and being able to close contract with minimal fees.
REDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
