Although 150 is more than enough for most, the 15mb upload really needs some improvement.

I lived briefly in a building where they got Urban Fibre. 1000mbps for both up and down. Now that's beyond awesome.

Internet is so expensive in Canada.

I am paying around $35 for 500Mbps plan and $27 for 100Mbps for my parents.

I'm on Internet 30 and paying $30/month give or take.

More than ample for all that I do.

Just curious what are you guys doing that you need those speeds? Streaming 4k? etc.

So...Internet 150 only cost $49 per month for a year
Second year will become to $79.99
After 2nd year, it goes back to $135 ??


I am still on old Shaw Broadband 250 for $130 per month.


Should I ditch this old plan go with Internet 150 ??
What would you guys do in this situation ??

A lot of people on RFD said that unless you go over your cap by several hundred GBs for a few months in a row then doesn't really cap you. If you do, they'll email/call you and ask you to pay for the unlimited option or bump to a higher tier, which you can't do if you're already on the fastest plan available.

Telus PureFibre is also only rolled out in a very limited market in Vancouver.

You can renew the plan again at 79.90 for the next two years rate guarantee
