I keep hearing that cellular prices in Canada are coming down but every couple of months it would seem they are raising prices, first it was long distance, then sms, now roaming. Could someone explain how this is getting more competitive? I’m with telus and I use to pay .20 roaming & .20 long distance, this is a 265 percent increase!

Overall it is a price increase. Except if you called locally in the US (eg in Seattle and call Seattle) you only paid 95 cents. Overall it is a price increase.

Thanks Telus. At least my plan still has free sms to US numbers...these new "international" sms fees are nuts.
