Is anywhere that sells phones in person open these days? I was thinking maybe Walmart or London Drugs, since everything else I've looked up isn't. edit: I know both of those are open... I mean the cell phone parts. Sassafras fucked around with this message at 19:47 on Apr 18, 2020 |

London Drugs was good, no outside lineup (except for car insurance) and they were possibly even overstaffed in mobile phone dept with three people. Thanks for the fallback ideas though!

Without quizzing friends and strangers everywhere I go, what's the lowest hassle way to check out the signal for different networks? I'm on the Telus/Bell network but after moving my signal's mediocre. I have wifi calling enabled at home but there are areas nearby where I have no reception at all so I really do want to cross-compare. CellMapper has very little data and is always readings from outside. Freedom: It looks like you can currently order and activate a prepaid line online with a 30 day plan including some data for $19 (maybe +10 for SIM) and then walk away if it sucks, however I am very confident based on tower density and locations that it will be worse than Telus where I live so why bother? Rogers, on the other hand, actually does have a couple towers vaguely nearby in locations that Telus/Bell do not, and both locations also have antennas pointed my direction, however terrain and buildings certainly mean no clean line of sight. I did some looking and the best prepaid deal I can see on that network is $10 for a Chatr SIM + $35 for a month including 2 GB data. HOWEVER, it might also be nice to use an eSIM so I get both networks at once (boy do all Canadian providers' implementations suck - you'll charge $9-10 and hand/mail me a card with a physical qrcode?) and Chatr doesn't do it at all. Rogers/Fido do, but neither have remotely cheap plans with data available right now, although I suppose activating postpaid and calling retentions to cancel after a couple weeks might be a good way to either get one or indeed cancel and only pay for half the month (Biggest downside of mailed SIM / qrcode is that the current Freedom porting / retention deals all probably expire end of month.) Anyway, I guess there's no better way? Actually going to a store means activation fees, lineups, and ugh.

Anyone else get one of these? They claim it wasn't them per investigation [ie, this happened to a large batch of accounts], but I log into my account about once a year and it has a long as heck unique random password. Koodo Email posted:As part of our efforts to protect your privacy and security, we proactively monitor our systems for suspicious activity. We have learned that there have been recent attempts to login to your account using valid credentials (your username and password) that originated from a suspicious source.

Likeliest vector, given what I know of my own behaviour, if this is legitimately not their own infrastructure or a false positive, would be clipboard-monitoring by legitimate-ish Android apps. edit: oh hey, another email four hours after the first couple: quote:Hi [me], Sassafras fucked around with this message at 22:23 on Nov 3, 2020 |

DariusLikewise posted:Is anybody in Manitoba using Telus right now? My work has an employee plan discount option with them and the rates are good but I remember Telus' coverage being absolute rear end here Yeah, fair question. Now that Bell owns MTS, does that whole Bell/Telus 100% shared network thing apply?

This thread's been quiet as heck, so hey, gonna share this link: https://www.ertyu.org/steven_nikkel/cancellsites.html Data last updated February 1st and holy crap did a bazillion Telus towers appear since the last update in many areas of greater Vancouver, Victoria, and a bit elsewhere - their 5G deployment is clearly underway. I looked around the GTA a bit and found Rogers does have a few clusters but nothing that remotely compares. Anyone know anything about whether 5G towers are going to be shared differently than the current Bell/Telus alliance?

Mister Facetious posted:Not on the low end. It's literally impossible to get a $10/gb ratio with prepay under $50. It's typically half that or worse, with Rogers being way, way worse ($60/1gb) Low end - the monthly charge is zero if you have shaw internet, but nevermind that bundling discount:  However I think the central thesis is wrong - mobile pricing still blows in Canada, we've just mostly aged into housing costs making mobile bills trivial in comparison.

Mister Facetious posted:^ That still ends up being $45/3gb, and it's not prepaid. In fact, Shaw doesn't offer any prepaid plans. Okay, well, these two are prepaid. Didn't bother looking at Freedom as I thought they'd killed it and rebranded to Shaw:  Confusingly, the second one says "3GB" when not expanded, so I believe it's 2 GB base + 1GB bonus...

Stock market seems fairly skeptical about the odds of it going through, announced with buyout price of a bit more than 40/share, currently trading at 32 - about half the difference.
