Hey this is great news!!! Thanks so much for the update. See you in line at your store opening... very excited!
Great news for all of my political friends -- unlimited Toronto to Ottawa! :D
Remember to look at hiring me when you are looking for more GTA sales associates! I have tons of personal experience with the big 3 and will be able to do well for WIND! :)
Did anyone who applied get a call lately? The lady who I was talking to, only mentioned a call back sometime next week. Just would like to know if anyone else got through...
When is wind coming to vancouver? Anyone has any idea? There is no mention of launch in vancouver. PLS someone tell me.
So you're coming to Ottawa soon, yeah! However, you have no spectrum in Quebec, so do you have a plan to deal with the particularly unique "home zone" issues this will create for "thousands" of Ottawa subscribes who spend most of their time in Ottawa, but work or play in Gatineau (Hull), Quebec just short drive across a bridge?
Hi,
I have been ready to switch to any provider since my current subscription is on a month to month basis. What's preventing me to switch to Wind mobile ? The cost of the initial cell units. This means that I would have to get rid of my current units since they are not compatible (GSM,etc,) with the Wind Mobile's network frequencies. That's the main stumbling
block, in my opinion anyway. And the availability of affordable cell units
that Wind Mobile offers is not existence (e.g. costing less than $100).
