   Okay, but where can i buy top-up vouchers for my Mobilicity account? They have retail presence at Walmart and Zellers, which is pretty good… but where are the vouchers?

   Mobilicity’s prices are almost always higher than WIND. They do not have a $5/month unlimited text plan, or other pay-per-use options. At least Mobilicity inspired WIND’s $25, $35 and $45 plans. But even then…

   the problem is Mobilicity’s “out of this world” sale this weekend costs way more than Wind. Compare the former’s $80 Wink and $25 plan to WIND’s $19 Gravity 2 and $15 Clever plan…

   come on Mobilicity! Sure, you have about half a dozen of good “Unlimited To Go” offers, but still, WIND has the $15 monthly plan, Pay Your Way options, and Lightly Loved So i really want to see better offers from Mobilicity! (continued)

     Alex – why don’t you start threads on HoFo and stay on topic here, but here goes…

     1. Pay your Mobilicity account online! Or at Mobilicity stores if need to by cash.

     2. Vouchers are an additional system to maintain, and likely not worth Mobilicity implementing for their target customers. Also why Mobilicity don’t want to enter pay-per-use.

     3. Outright prices on handsets…
     Nexus S Mobi $350 vs Wind $495
     Curve 3G Mobi(Walmart) $180 vs Wind $248
     Samsung C414 SAME
     Bold 9900 Mobi $550 vs Wind Not Avail

     4. $15 Clever (no data, max 100 mins/month, max 50 texts) vs $25 unlimited talk/text/data …REALLY?!?

     5. Aliens who cares, hope you grabbed a free turkey last weekend!

     rofl, sure you can get a $19 phone but if you end up getting a shitty one you cant return it.

     and the cheap phone you get your going get cheap service sure mobilicitys isnt all impressive but by far superior of WIND.

     O and mobilicity isnt going to bullshit you into saying o its only a tab not a contract. so funny.

   Also, that alien couple of Otis and Alexis reminds me a bit of Bell’s Frank and Gordon, or more like Virgin USA’s Sparah™. Unlike those examples, however, there is currently no engaging story line for the aliens, which is sad.

   Why? Because it would have a lot of potential. Mobilicity could release cartoon books, just like WIND has its own magazine. Those aliens look like they could be great heroes to save the day.

   BlackBerry? The 9360 at $300 is rather steep, let alone more. The 9300 is already $180 at Walmart with two months of service. A similar deal for around $250 should exist for the 9360.

     The curve 3G at Walmart is actually $200 plus taxes now. I was about to buy one, but saw the price increase by $20, so I figured I’d wait to see how much the new curve will cost.

     And no, $300 outright for new models isn’t “too steep” and by thinking that, you clearly have no business acumen. Newer models, no matter how slight the upgrade, will always cost more because they are brand new and will cost more straight from the manufacturer. The 3G is only cheaper now because it’s excess inventory of an older, slightly outdated model, and both the manufacturer and carrier want to sell older models as quickly as possible so it doesn’t take up any more space.

     Look, rather than complain about what essentially amounts to you being too cheap (and that clearly is the case if you’re comparing Mobilicity’s unlimited talk, text, and data plan for $25 to Wind Mobile’s limited 100 minutes, 50 texts, and no data plan), just go buy a wind phone and quit complaining. Not all plans are for everyone, and Mobilicity’s value plans aren’t targeted towards you. So GTFO.

   Where’s Phoneguy? You’d think he’d be all over this claiming PM’s Buzz is better than the Curve.

     It would be great to see the Huawei U6150, the signature but now-discontinued Mobiflip by Sharp, and the Public Mobile Buzz by Who Knows all battle it out to see which feature phone is the best!

   Having a good phone for lower cost is good but the service Mobi & Wind offer are garbage. 1 signal bar in a small mall… Nothing in bigger mall of course lol..

     I’ve had service issues with Robelus. If you want to help the new entrants please identify your carrier & malls.
     In the year that I’ve been with Mobilicity coverage has improved, and for my use was good from the beginning. Only area I lack coverage is Toronto’s underground PATH system tho for the savings per month I get that’s not a big issue.
