So, all in all, to use the iPhone without a contract, it will still cost roughly $50 a month. That's what I am figuring.
Since the phone is not technically on contract, you wouldn't need to buy a data plan straight up with your regular plan. However, it seems that Bell has a great voice & data plan for $50. You get 300 Minutes & 500 MB of data + all the other features they have. By the way, Bell is offering 100 minutes more for your plan in N&L than in Ontario... Lucky!

Not to derail this thread, but why do you capitalize every word? It makes your posts much harder to read.

It's not an attack, it's a genuine question.

You are right about it being very hard to read. So hard, in fact, I just skip it.

I can't believe everyone's been telling me this. I did it because I felt like it's nicer to look at. I edited the post so that you can read it. For me, reading the text is no different than reading other kinds of text.

Thousands of years of written word vs. what you felt was nicer to look at... Hmmm.

(BTW, utterly unreadable all words capitalized. There's a reason the rest of the English written world doesn't do this.)

I checked my locked Virgin iPhone on the Bell website and it says that I have to bring my
iPhone into a store to see if I can switch to Bell, Why have a IMEI lookup if they don't even know if it would work for sure?

Anyways, I think I might have to take it into the Bell store,
They are offering a better plan for Talk, Text and Data than Virgin

Just wondering though, Am I switching providers if Bell owns Virgin?
