a.)30 mins talk time
or
b.)15 days usage
that you dont like it, then you can refund, and just pay for the number of days you've used. ie. decided after day 5 you dont like it and want to return everything... then it'll cost..
5/31 * $plan

Im on the edge thinking of porting over to wind from rogers (cant deal with their bs customer service and limited credits), I know there was a porting credit couple months ago. Now that the deal is expired any idea when it'll take effect again? Thanks

no, its the big 3's offerings. Mobi is still all you can eat, but throttled if you exceed 100MB/hr. after that hour it speeds up again.

Going to go on Wind soon, but the $5 for 50MB Pay Your Way add on is really discouraging...
Edit: Fixed $5 typo.

their trial works like this.
pick a plan, pick a phone.
you have 15 days, or 30 talktime minutes as your trial. whichever you use up first, ends your trial.
if before that, you decide, no i dont like wind, you can refund everything. but you'll have to pay for your pro-rated usage. (ie. x/30 days * $monthly plan) Quote:
Originally Posted by Alphamale Everyone on wind is still have zero issues with reception in/around downtown? | the only time i've ever had reception issues is if i come up from the skytrain, it either takes a few minutes to regain reception, or a few seconds, depending on where i am and how lucky i am. other times i experience troubles is within a really big building thats surrounded with walls. (ie, steve nash sports club locker room)
speeds are decent for what it is.
on a side note... was out of town this past weekend..
in abby had good reception with 3.53mbps down and 0.35 up
in langley at luxe seafood restaurant, managed 4.39 down and 0.35 up

Just have to turn off your mobile network in wireless option, wait a couple seconds then re-connect it.

Beyond that, I'm good. I work downtown in an office building, so it was kind of important for me too.

| WIND Mobile | Facebook
Wind is offering a $30 credit to their customers who click "Like" on their Facebook Day page and you will get a code/link.
This is false. The "Code" they send you is back to your account page and from there Nothing. My posts on facebook and DMs on twitter are being deleted and ignored, along with a bunch of other unhappy wind users. I did all this 3 minutes after they posted this promo. Within 10 minutes my first post was deleted along with a bunch of other wind user rants. I like their coverage and LOVE how much stuff is included in one bill, but pulling a fast one just to get likes online?
We'll see in 23h
