Am I getting ripped off? How much are y'all paying for data?

I finally upgraded to a smart phone last month. I renewed my contract with bell and added data for $25/mo (500mb).
After doing so I found out my friends are paying $25 for 6 gigs of data from fido.
Are they over charging me for data?
I don't use up my 500mb, so theres no point asking for more data. Is it fair to call and ask for a discount on the 500mb?

Dude. They are not going to offer you the same price on a promo they don't offer anymore.

That's why it's a **promotion**.

according to their website, they already gave you a deal.
http://www.bell.ca/shopping/PrsShpWl..._Internet.page

Regular price is $30 for 500MB.
I'd be very surprised if they gave you their promo price which no longer exists anymore.

I'm paying $30 for 6gb with fido but I have an old $5 credit so it works out to $25
$25 for 500mb is pretty standard though, unless you go with the newer networks you're not going to get much better of a deal. Maybe try a bundle student plan etc with bell?
