I checked what I pay, before reading the rest of the article, and I find it interesting that Canada have the highest costs of any nation in the World, until I saw that Denmark isn’t far behind..
I used to pay around CAD 80 per month, until I changed my subscription to something a bit cheaper, now I “only” pay about CAD 45-50..
I wouldn’t go so far and say that I’m happy with my provider, though they do have decent DATA connection on 3G.. but I find it slightly expensive, compared to what I get.. I have free text messaging, 5GB of DATA and 2 hours of talk-time..
I’m planning on finding something similar, but cheaper, when my 6 months binding period is up (only 5 more months to go, lol)
