Author Topic: Bell Canada forgot I don't have a data plan  (Read 581 times)

Story time, I'm gonna post this while I wait at Tim Horton's for my friend to get off work.

When I first bought my first ever smartphone, bell gave me a NON DATA contract. They told me if I used data they would charge me out the butt. This was very true, I got a $500 phone bill once for watching a few YouTube videos.

Anyway, fast forward to last summer. I bought an unlocked Galaxy Nexus and swapped my SIM card. Great phone, great new experience, until i realized i had been using 4G for a week straight. When the phone bill arrived I cowered in fear - only to find it costing $40.

... Fast forward to now. Ive torrented movies, watched HD stuff all the time, and they never charge me. I tether my new Nexus 7 all the time. They either don't know or just don't care.

tl;dr I'm not paying for 4G/3G usage on my phone and I use it all the time with no consequences.

Discuss.

I don't be irresponsible and take advantage of this. Give Bell Canada a call.

maybe you unknowingly got a data plan when you got the new phone??


from what i hear bell canada can be pretty silly though

I asked them once when I was getting my PUK code... They said they have no record of me using HSPDA or lower since last year
