Freedom Mobile cuts data across the board amid plan shuffle

Freedom's top two plans and its mid tier plan are affected

Quebecor’s Freedom Mobile has quietly reduced the data on some of its plans.

Essentially, Freedom’s two higher-priced plans and its mid-level $40/mo plan have been affected by the data change, with the top-tier $60/mo plan being the only “limited time offer” that was removed.

The drops aren’t a uniform amount either. Freedom’s $40/75GB plan has dropped by 5GB (alongside the merger of all bonus data) to $40/70GB. Freedom’s $50/175GB plan was reduced by 15GB to $50/150GB. Freedom’s most expensive plan saw the largest drop, going from $60/250GB to $60/200GB. Like the $40/mo option, this top-tier plan also had its data terms revised, with the mention of “bonus data” removed from the plan’s description.

Here is how the plans look now with the data cuts:

  • $35/10GB Canada/US/Mexico-wide, 1GB of Roam Beyond data, unlimited talk/text in Canada and 120+ global destinations.
  • $40/70GB Canada/US/Mexico-wide, 5GB of Roam Beyond data, unlimited talk/text in Canada and 120+ global destinations.
  • $45/100GB Canada/US/Mexico-wide, 5GB of Roam Beyond data, unlimited talk/text in Canada and 120+ global destinations.
  • $50/150GB Canada/US/Mexico-wide, 10GB of Roam Beyond data, unlimited talk/text in Canada and 120+ global destinations.
  • $60/200GB Canada/US/Mexico-wide, 20GB of Roam Beyond data, unlimited talk/text in Canada and 120+ global destinations.

Honestly, even with the data reduction, these are still pretty good plans for the pricepoint. Telus-owned Public Mobile gets pretty close on price, but even at every level, Freedom offers some decent benefits that make up for having anywhere between 5-50 GB ripped from your next plan.
