I was halfway through it and they charged me 20 dollars for every month. I switched to virgin and bought a new phone and after paying bell, I still saved 90 dollars because of the bloodsuckers bell. If you switch you will probably save money too. @ justin

Several market have them. But most of these market all have cancellation clause for major cause that are legitimate, including death of the party, unemployment, moving out of the coverage area, etc. That's *by law* and something Canadian miss. Also the carrier subsidy for the handset is a trick. Rogers force you renew a contract so you can get the "same price" when you change you phone number (after moving), or they ask you to pay *MORE*. There is no phone purchase involved in that scam. If it was really to subsidise phone the you would pay LESS if you don't buy a phone, and wouldn't need to get a contract for the 33% discount that want to make for you to sign up. If they can afford to give you a 649.99$ phone for 0.99$, then you should be able to get the same deal with a 649$ rebate and no phone. @midtoad: 36 month contrat aren’t illegal elsewhere.

List only contract-free or 1- or 2-year prices, since nowhere else in the world are 3-year contracts even legal.

Always seems like Bell is years behind Rogers and Telus (whom are years behind the rest of the world). Sad place Canada is for wireless. Sounds exactly like Bell.
