Wind Mobile Canada’s new unlimited monthly plans have definitely made the competition a bit more steep within Canada for the going cellphone rates, especially with their new $35/month talk, text and data plan. The plan is, as stated, only $35 a month and with it you will receive:
- unlimited Canada-wide calling
- unlimited Canada-wide texting
- unlimited Data (2GB full speed allotment)
- unlimited Canada/US-wide picture/video messaging
- voicemail
- call control (caller ID, missed call alerts, call waiting, etc.)
- and up to $150 in Bring/Buy your own phone credits or WINDtab
If you’re still looking to go cheaper, the $25 a month plan offers all of the same features, except that it won’t include the unlimited Data, which nowadays is as much a precedent as unlimited texting is on a phone (as a lot of us do use our phones as handheld computers).
When you compare this plan with other cell phone providers, you quickly realize that this offer from Wind is probably going to give you the most mileage for your money. For instance, Mobilicity offers a $35 a month plan, but they offer ‘light data’ while Wind offers unlimited data. In the light data offer, you will receive e-mail and social networking, which is fine if that’s all you use your data for. If you use your data for other activities, however, it leaves you rather limited.

Its only a good deal if you bring your own phone. If you don’t to get a
“free” phone you need to pay an extra 25 a month for whats called a tab. so it ends up working out to about the same as other companies.
But with other companies it’s roughly half the price. You save over time because of the lower monthly rate.
