I for one will be switching to one of the new cell companies as soon as possible. I am looking forward to the day that I can dump Rogers. I am sure thousands of other people will be switching right away too. I am so sick of how much the big three ripp off their customers. Rogers makes huge profits, ut they still find the need to charge way too much for their service. I think the big three should be worried.

If everyone is locked into long term deals, the harder it is for them to move to the new players in the game.

I have a hard time beleaving tha government Could or Would stop tha big 3 from buying any of these companies... Honestly I can't wait to see them out.. but data speeds, reliability, and rates are my main consern.. wen a lot of us use 100 to 200 mins a month we don't want unmited airtime but need to be Not paying $70, $80 + a month for airtime, data, sms etc... so I hope the newbees are not just focusing on unlimited airtime, no conacts , no bills etc.. there's a lot more to why tha entire world hates or laughs at canadian telcomms.... tha government made BILLIONS selling off wireless spectrums.. im shure it was just a cash grab that they made out to sound like they care and there intentions were causing lower cell phone rates etc… I have a hard time beleaving tha government Could or Would stop tha big 3 from buying any of these companies… Honestly I can't wait to see them out.. but data speeds, reliability, and rates are my main consern.. wen a lot of us use 100 to 200 mins a month we don't want unmited airtime but need to be Not paying $70, $80 + a month for airtime, data, sms etc… so I hope the newbees are not just focusing on unlimited airtime, no conacts , no bills etc.. there's a lot more to why tha entire world hates or laughs at canadian telcomms….

Bottom line i dont think the big 3 will buy the new guys even if they wanted to because the goverment will never apporove it. if people brng up the case of Virgin Mobile, that company came into the market as bells 3rd brand and it was no questions that bell would take full controle once they went private but since they didnt they had money to buy them anyways.

I hope Shaw does something with their spectrum. Honestly, they are useless buying it and not putting it to use just to hold it for ransom and profit. I'll say DAVE and Public will both be bought out.
