Num­ber porta­bil­ity starts today

For far too long Cana­di­ans have had their mobile num­bers held cap­tive by phone com­pa­nies. Now you have the right to take your mobile num­ber with you any­where you want! Now that your num­ber is good to go we want to make sure that every­one makes the most of their new-found freedom.

This means that you can switch to any cell phone provider in Canada and take along your num­ber

Expect loads of crazy deals and offers from car­ri­ers to try steal­ing cus­tomers from each other.

Vir­gin started the com­pe­ti­tion today with this awe­some deal only for new cus­tomers that switch their phone num­bers over. Switchover and buy any of Virgin’s cell­phones from their web­site or another retailer and acti­vate it today (March 14) by giv­ing them a call, and they will give you a credit for the cellphone’s price.
