But no...no money was saved. B/c he was charged for incoming long distance calls. WTF.

yeah, i've heard that too about the billing...I don't understand why its so difficult for them to get things in order.

And Incoming long distance? WTF! I should check my bill..i someone how get 200 free long distance minutes in Canada & US (excluding roaming fees) but still..thats messed up.

The only good part is that I can upload and download new ringtunes whenever I want..right now my ringer is Rock Your Body Rock haha..i only wish I had and MP3 phone and that way I could have any song I want...

Bell changed their billing system about a year ago and there were some problems with billing. Since then there have been very few billing issues with Bell.

For those who remember when Rogers changed their billing system - Rogers too had loads of problems with incorrect bills, etc, etc, etc.

You pretty much won't be able to avoid either Rogers or Bell. Telus will go down eventually. Pick the lesser of two evils for yourself. Bell I have a hate on for them for a long time. Plus their phones don't use the SIM card business and that's why they suck. So I use Fido, but it's owned by Rogers so I pick the lesser of two evils.

Fucking hate Bell.

You sound like a sales man for Bell. It's not an excuse. Lisa said she had a billing problem every month for a year. That's LAME!

I used to be a sales person for bell... and people were so fucking anoying when they came to the store to bitch about the billing WOW.

But i can understand where they are coming from... the moral of the story is to NEVER EVER sign up for pre authorized billing. Because if the screw ur bill, they will take out that money from ur bank .. but if its just a statement its not big deal.

Originally posted by FunkyCrew no this is a known fact, 4-band phones with 850 band are the only phones which will work the best, where normally we lose reception - buildings, basements, subway... and its nothing to do with the plan lol

You're both right - quad-band phones generally get better reception that tri-band, but it still depends a lot on the engineering of the phone - some tri-band phones outperform quad-bands if they're made well. Which was the case with k750. Other than that, Fido and Rogers DO share the cell towers, so you'll get exact same reception regardless of which one you're with. Lastly, 850 band is mostly used in rural areas because lower frequency means the wave travels further, so if you're in the city, you're most-likely to use one of the other 3 bands.

Rogers is having most of their HSDPA on 850.

Do you know when that was? B/c I've been with them for quite awhile and never had a problem like that. Or else I just may have been one of the lucky ones.

And Margs, I'm not even exaggerating. I literally had to call them every month to correct charges that they messed up on.

im with telus, my main complain is lack of cool phones and the fact that I can not use a SIM card to store my phone numbers on it AND go abroad with my phone.
