Cocaine Bear posted:Loving the side by side CBC articles this morning. "Telus shatters profit record again reaching ungodly sums per quarter" and "Telus asks CRTC to allow them to add a 1.5% surcharge to customers paying their bill with a credit card" I actually didn't realize we had a cell thread! Here's what I posted in the internet thread, in case anyone here wants to throw some complaints into the void: quote:Telus is doing Canadian Telecom things and putting in an application to charge a 1.5% service fee (with taxes like a cherry on top of that) for anyone paying with a credit card. I believe it is currently only for mobile plans, but if this goes through it seems likely that everyone else will apply it, and then it will eventually apply to all services.

Oh man. I've been doodling around on a PubMo 4.5GB on 3G speed for 40 bucks and they sent me a text last month saying "You know you can get 4G speed for the same price?" so I told it to switch at the next payment date. Now, before that even kicked in, I've switched to this 12GB one... I honestly have no idea what I would do with all of this data because I'm so trained to restrict cell data and use wifi everywhere

I'm on the 40 dollar 15GB 4G plan with PubMo and my phone started reporting 5G speed. I checked the site and my plan definitely still says 4G. Is that likely to be my phone reporting the wrong speed, pubmo sending the wrong speed to my phone, or pubmo serving up 5G to a 4G plan because it's easier than segregating it?

Risky Bisquick posted:You can switch plans to the $39 20gb plan for the low cost of saving one dollar. I didn't have that option on the site. I think it's not an option for existing users ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I could switch to a 30GB 5G plan for 50 bucks a month but I don't use the 15GB I already have...

Risky Bisquick posted:I switched 3 accounts to the $39 plan Apparently I had it filtered to 5G so the $39 plan wasn't showing up, lol +5GB for -1 dollar is a decent deal

Mister Facetious posted:But does it change your old loyalty plan to the newer one with a lower discount? I didn't see anything about it changing the loyalty... I'm currently at a 6 dollar discount so hopefully it doesn't switch.

I've upgraded my Pubmo plan like 5 times in the last year and it's not even Black Friday

I was going to say I haven't gotten any spam calls on PubMo at all, but I guess I have a Pixel... Looks like the last call it blocked for me was in July so not a lot of spam. I never give my cell number out though because we still have a land line that I haven't bothered to cancel so it's our official spam phone number now and like 6 people have my actual cell number  . Now that I have actual minutes on my plan I will probably start using the cell more and maybe work up the give-a-shits enough to sit on hold with Telus for 45 minutes to try to cancel the landline, only to have them "accidentally" disconnect me as soon as they hear I want to cancel something.

Shofixti posted:Does anyone know if switching to these new PM plans forces you to their new reward system too with the “PM points” rather than just getting direct reductions in your monthly bill? I've upgraded plans like 4 times this year and I'm still on the old one with all my old discounts. The extra data buckets I was awarded from events/outages/loyalty is no longer usable on my new plans, but they're still on my account if I ever drop back to an old plan, and now I have like 40GB a month and will never need those buckets anyway.

odiv posted:Public Mobile's at it again. drat. It's not even Black Friday. That brings me back down to what I was paying with my loyalty under the old system, which helps salve the sting of them yoinking that system.
