This sounds like a good deal. I have wanted to get an iPhone for the longest time, but have been waiting for a good deal to come by. I am currently with Fido right now, but prepaid (I never wanted to sign a contract). I average around 20-30 a month on prepaid vouchers.
I want to get the 6GB data plan as well as the iPhone Value Pack (I think it's $15/month) which includes VM, CD, 2500 text, etc.
So totaling everything up:
17.50 + 6.95 (SAF) + 0.50 (911) + 15 + 30 (data) + tax = $73.45
I'm not sure that's a very good deal - maybe someone can comment? Since I don't have a previous contract, I can't called Retentions.
Also, I've heard that since the voice plan is < 30/month, I would have to pay $50 more for the phone (ie. $249 for the 8GB or $349 for the 16GB). Can someone confirm or deny this?
Thanks.
