virginmobilelogoEver since Bell took over complete control over at Virgin, we’ve noticed a few changes. First, they now bring on devices faster or even ahead of Bell (Samsung Link). Second, they have changed their price plans to have only a 2-year or prepaid contracts (3-year for BlackBerry devices only). Third, their website is getting a complete overhaul over the next few months, and lastly – they are slowly starting to increase their rates.

On the Virgin Customer Updates page they’ve noted that “On October 4, 2009, the price of Unlimited Mobile Web Browsing will change from $7/month to $10/month. If you are already hooked up with Unlimited Mobile Web Browsing then you can keep using it at the current $7 monthly rate. Just a heads-up that if you ever miss a payment or remove the subscription, you can hook it back up for the new $10 monthly rate.”

  2. I still don’t quite understand why all their phones are 2 year contract except for the blackberrys. Why is that?

  3. it explains why the phones prices are so low, the rumour2 and link are about 20 bucks or so more on bell or solo mobile. the phones are cheaper because you will get charged more. i am glad that you wont need the unlimited web to access msn messenger anymore. it will make my bill a little cheaper

  4. My $7 unlimited browsing plan that began on a 3 year contract with Bell has now jumped to $10 even though I’m only half way through my contract and have changed no features. So much for a contract. Not a happy camper.

  5. The price of the Unlimited Web Feature will remain grandfathered on your account until you remove it (or on prepaid… miss your anniversary date) so it will not change the amount of your bill
