Bell: “Most reliable can wait for another day”

By Kate O'Brien on December 18, 2009 in Bell Mobility News, Mobile News, Various News

bellnopeThe ongoing soap opera of which wireless carrier fight over who is the best, fastest, most reliable, largest continues. TELUS went after Rogers… then Rogers went after Bell. This is all in the friendly name of competition and fine tuned words. Each carrier was stating that each other are misleading us and some words need to be removed from their advertising.

In the case of Rogers vs. Bell, Justice Cullen of the British Columbia Supreme Court stated Bell must stop saying they are the “most reliable” because their new HSPA network is too new. However, what Bell did succeed and can continue advertising their new network is the “largest, fastest, best and most powerful in the country.”

Wade Oosterman, President of Bell Mobility “The court didn’t argue with Bell Mobility’s testing that found the new
network offered the clearest reception and the fewest dropped calls. However, based on the judge’s ruling, network tenure is now an issue in claiming that a network is most reliable. In other words, the reliability of a brand new network cannot now be directly compared to an older network. We don’t agree of course and are considering an appeal.”

In addition, when is come to specifically being the most reliable, Oosterman said “We’ll continue to let clients across Canada know about the new network’s superiority of course. Most reliable can wait for another day, but there’s no doubt that the new network is the largest and fastest, and nothing to stop us from letting Canadians know it’s the
country’s best and most powerful wireless network for those very reasons.”

What carrier do you think is the largest, fastest, best and most reliable and powerful in the country.

  1. Rogers took down the most reliable messaging from their site THE DAY AFTER the court order. Bell still has it up. Not surprising, as they are filthy liars who built a business on stealing.

    Take it down Wade.

  2. In Atlantic Canada (NB especially), Rogers has pitiful 3G coverage. So therefore Bell and Telus are the largest and fastest in my neck of the woods. As for most reliable, pick your poison.

  4. i do agree with michael as i live in NB too..rogers is bad for 3G coverage i used to have an iphone and it seemed to be constantly searching for coverage when i was only down in my basement. i dont know how accurate the coverage maps are but telus/bell so far looks the best out of rogers. Does anyone know if Rogers will be updating their 3G coverage??

  6. Bell and telus’s CDMA & HSPA networks are both far superior to rogers.. HSPA is faster then CDMA (Allthough not but much in real worl tests) and is again far superior wen you can use uninterupted CDMA 3G coast to coast – and as far as HSPA 3G rogers is a Joke, and i have No respect for them, and pitty how they will butcher an LTE network wen & if they ever provide it… i have alot of bad things i could say about bell (and do) but network wise, i have found them far more trustable then rogers or telus..

  8. I am on Bell’s HSPA network, in a major metropolitain area, and am finding black holes EVERYWHERE. I have spoken to nearly a dozen Bell representatives, and no one seems to care. No one is willing to do anything to help me.

    My phone works fine, but I am NOT ABLE TO GET RECEPTION ANYWHERE!!!

    MOST reliable??

    Maybe we can start with a little bit reliable??

    If you are buying a new phone, I would recomend waiting another year or two before bying one with a SIM card. They seem to have not worked out the kinks yet.
