Freedom Mobile is launching in 50 cities across B.C. and Alberta as part of its parent company's aggressive expansion since acquiring the carrier last year.
I have been with Freedom for quite a while now (towards the end of them being called Wind), and they have consistently improved in service quality and coverage.
What I like best though, besides the prices, is how straightforward it is to buy a data package for international travel. Pick your start date, country, and data amount and it’s done in two minutes.
They’re not perfect, but they’re pretty good and they’re also not the oligopoly.
Do it. If it sucks too hard, Telus will give you a win-back plan off the books. I’ve been on Freedom since around 2010 in Ontario. Their network has always been worse than ROBeLUS but boy does it feel good to not be paying the oligopoly.
I’ve been with them since they were called Wind. Always been satisfied, but since they merged with Videotron my experience with them has gotten even better.
We have been with Freedom for a while now. Their reach isn’t as good as the other companies but the plans are amazing. My spouse pays like $35 for US/Canada and with a good chunk of data (20GB I think?).

Awesome news.

Time to switch from Telus

Considering this heavily.

The support the smaller players get the more competitive the market becomes
Quebecor Inc. is a “smaller player”?
I guess Videotron and Freedom are relatively smaller, but Quebecor is a behemoth.
It owns:
Informative, still very small compared to Telus who’s now entering healthcare and farming among other things.
Telus has been digging their greasy fingers into healthcare - specifically government-funded, for-profit healthcare - for about a decade now.
Did you know they did the report that said Alberta is owed half of the CPP?
Fair enough. Even so though, consider their respective revenues:
So less than a third of second-last place. In relative terms, that’s a lot smaller.
