Best Smartphone Plan Covering US and Canada?
j00bhaka writes "I am a US citizen attending university in Nova Scotia, Canada. I currently have the Verizon America and Canada plan (also known as the North American plan). My bill is currently around $80-$100 per month. I chose this for a couple reasons. One, I have had my number for about 7 years. Two, I do not permanently live in Canada. I live in Canada for 8 months out of the year at school, then travel home for the summer months. Either way, I would be dealing with international roaming without having both countries in my plan. Currently, I obviously don't have a smartphone. Through Verizon, I could purchase one, and add their international unlimited data plan on top of my (already) hefty phone bill. I have looked into Telus and Rogers here in Canada and cannot find anything better. As a student, my budget is obviously limited. Is there any way to reasonably have (and utilize) a smartphone while I am living in both countries? If so, what do you suggest I do?"
Wow, you managed to give a solution that does not address a single requirement of the problem... Bravo.
Get this. Up until 15-20 years ago (practically) no college students had cell phones.
And we walked to school barefoot in the snow and uphill both ways!
We were LUCKY to go barefoot! In my town, we would wrap our feet in barbed wire for traction.
Now get off my lawn you damn kids!
