I believe Virgin Canada was taken over by Bell Canada.
I have Virgin service and it works well in this area. When my contract is up I'll convert to the prepaid plan like my wife has. She struggles to use up the $100.00 prepaid amount each year. Right now I have to find out if we can transfer her outstanding credits to a new phone. |

Well, I am sure I am probably the only one here who lives a lot of their life away from civilization and towers.. Just the logistics of our sport puts us out of range lots of times.. harry doesn't go camping in the bood docks, he just likes his IPhone toy.... My S3 still does everything my wife's phone does, for a lot less money... |
