Yes, they always offer much better deals to new users which,
if you think about it, will cause old users to switch to another
carrier, at least for a while, so they can come back as a new
user - if they don't watch for things like that.. Plus a few
new companies are offering really good deals if they prove
reliable, like the President's Choice (was it?) plan I see
in my NO Frills flyers is possibly better than what I have now
but not enough so for me to chance a switch I may regret..

Plus, where I am, the Network the comany uses is important as
some get much better reception than others. Bell is good, Rogers
is not quite as good but not too bad and Telus is pretty bad
according to people I know using those carriers.

Lucky is actually a Bell company for those who don't know.

AA>There is currently a $34/15GB and a $39/65GB but only for *new*
  >subscribers.  Go figure.

With my 'loyalty' and automatic payment bonuses I get 16 gig for
$35 and for $40 I can upgrade to 80 gig plus USA calling added to
the plan if they haven't changed the offerings since last checked.

AA>I'm at 25GB (+bonuses) across 3 cell phones at $29/mo each.
  >That's plenty of data for me too.

I'd imagine your bonuses up you to closer to 35 gig?

Do you get a discount for more than one phone? Not something
I've ever had to deal with..
