Changing to Wind phone carrier? Should I?
Hey,
So I'm currently with Bell with a talk and text plan and would like to change to a data plan. I came across a special promo at Wind for a $39 plan that was originally $45. I know a couple years back, Wind and Mobility were super crappy with drop calls and bad coverage, but I've also heard that they've been upping their game with more towers and coverage. My plan with Bell is exclusive so if I leave and come back, I won't be able to get it back and will have to pay almost $10 more for the same plan (talk and text).
So my question is, are there anyone who is currently with Wind (or mobilicity) or was recently with one of them around to give me some ideas of their own personal experiences with these carriers? Would really like to hear about their coverage from ppl rather than just looking at their coverage map.
I go mainly to the burnaby campus, occasionally surrey(maybe one class per year) and I live in Richmond so I pass through downtown (135) or take the 410 over at New West (22nd station)
Thanks

You can buy an awesome Xiaomi phone for less than you'll pay on a two-year contract for a similar device.
I have the Mi4 right now and it's basically like Android and iPhone are ugly dumb parents who had a beautiful smart baby. All I had to do was watch a YouTube video showing how to change it to English.
You can always have a look at something like

to get some idea.
