Virgin Mobile Posts iPhone 4 Information Page

By Ex on July 21st, 2010 80

Slowly but surely the Canadian wireless carriers are getting their iPhone 4 information pages up to date.

This week, Virgin Mobile is the next wireless carrier to post their iPhone 4 information page. Oddly enough, the page still indicates “coming soon” but that will probably change real quick.

There is also a “Register Now” link where users can sign up and receive up to date information on the iPhone 4.

WANT IT. IT’S COMING… SOON.

Fill out your deets below and we’ll let you know when iPhone 4 is up for grabs.

As we know, Bell was the first Canadian wireless carrier to publicly post that they would be carrying the iPhone 4 on July 30, 2010. This was followed by Rogers and Fido, except that Rogers/Fido posted their announcements internally and not publicly.

Soon after, Telus updated their iPhone 4 information page with the July 30 launch date.

So if you are currently a Virgin Mobile subscriber or plan on subscribing with Virgin Mobile when you get your iPhone 4, check this out.

Thanks Dan for the email!

    First thing. If you're gonna buy iPhone 4 outright, you might as well buy it from Apple Store and get a factory/officially unlocked iPhone 4.

    Second thing. You will need to get a microSIM and transfer your current account to it, so it's not as simple as plopping your old sim card in the new phone. Question is, will Rogers/Fido transfer your account to microSIM without fuss…

  • Whiterhino14

    Yeah. It's bull to keep us in the dark like this. Jobs announced almost a week ago that the launch here is July 30th and even the Apple.ca site still says ” Coming Soon ” Pre orders should have already started and they haven't even announced pre orders yet. It's too quiet and I'm really starting to wonder what kind of numbers Canada is going to see if they are still having major supply issues in the Countries that had their launch over a month ago.

    It's ironic that you said that because I had my iPhone 3G stolen 2 months ago and I've BEEN living with a crappy Razr ever since because I was waiting for the 4G…now it seems like I could have just bought the 3GS, then upgraded…sigh…

  • alexander lefort

    trasnfering your account to a microsim is a 5 minute process. so it basically IS popping the sim in. go to a rogers/fido store and ask them to do it for you.

  • alexander lefort

    oh, and like I said, rogers doesnt allow you to purchase the iphone outright. So apple is a good option.

  • calliope

    I have a regular phone, but haven't upgraded since about 16 months ago. Had they mentioned anything about people upgrading from regular phones? I think the 2 year thing is balls. I was told by one Rogers that it's just a year from a regular phone to smartphone, then by another one a couple months later thatit's 2 years no matter what. Unless they change that for the iPhone too…

    We considered it, but it is easier if you (as the customer) simply research
    each carrier website and then posted your questions.

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    I responded to you earlier.

    Misinformation.

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    Not lying. Misinformed.

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    No, the iPhones are locked at Apple Stores during the POS process.

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    $199/$299 on contract

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    Yes

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    You can buy it outright from Fido, but it will be locked to Fido.

    Also, since Fido is commissioned reps, they will be unwilling to sell it outright.

    hi i have a 3year contract with rogers and i have a iphone 3g. i really want to upgrade the iphone 4 but my question is can i just get all my info from my old sim card and put it on the new sim card for my iphone 4 and restart my plan meaning i just have to pay the price of the iphone 4 3r contract. i got my iphone 4 last christmas
    thanks guys

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    Yes.

  • Corey

    kk cool but i was looking on rogers website and it sais to upgrade a phone u must have the contract u already have for 24 months. And one more thing will i have my same phone # if i get the iphone 4

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    Yes. To upgrade with Rogers (if you're a Rogers customer), you must have the contract for 24 months.

    You can have the same number.

  • owais

    Calliope: If you currently have a regular phone on a contract then you can upgrade to any phone after 1 year of the contract. You may have to restart your commitment of a 3 yr contract and you will be paying a little higher for the phone than new customers. If they give you a hard time just ask to speak with customer relations or with someone who has more authority to override their system. There is always someone higher up and if your case is “unusual” then they need to take “unusual” measures to resolve the issues.

    FYI: if my source is correct then rogers is letting all iphone owners that owned one before July 7th get the new iphone 4 at the same price as regular customers on a new 3 yr term. I dont work at Rogers or any carrier but that is what i was told by a Customer Relations CSR.

    I don't doubt this at all. This is HUGE incentive NOT to get the factory unlocked phone from apple, Rogers just sucked you in with a deal, congratulations you are stuck with them 3 more years and a locked phone. Now, my guess is, they may decide all those people with 500 MB contracts when they go to upgrade, sorry 500 MB is not enough we are canceling that feature and putting a new higher capacity dataplan out and you have to pay for at least 1GB cause thats as low of a plan they will have (maybe in preperation for the 4G network), but you can't go to Bell, not unless you unlock your phone illegally. So you have two choices: get the 1GB plan and pay more(Rogers wins) or pay $400 to buyout your contract and lose the use of your locked iPhone. Who would pay $400 + the cost of a new iPhone from another provider just to save $10 a month? Rogers got you, hook, line and sinker. This is all speculation. But Rogers has gotten really greedy over the years so I wouldn't doubt it. If they didn't offer this then everyone who bought a phone July 30 2008 – June 7 2010 would get an unlocked one from Apple and Rogers would lose ALOT of business (rogers may consider the new wind mobile a threat in the future). I don't plan on getting my iPhone tied down for three years, who knows what can happen from now till my contract expires.

  • Corey

    kk so i can just restart my plan and pay for the iphone 4 with a 3yr contract even though i have only had my plan since christmas? Thanks

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    Having your plan since December 2009 implies you are less than 2 years into your Rogers contract. So unless Rogers make a last minute policy change, you won't be able to upgrade to the iPhone 4.

  • owais

    tim: if my course was correct then upgrade sots will be the same as for the new customers on 3 yr contract.

    16Gb $ 199
    32GB $ 299

  • Corey

    damn k i could go to like a future shop or something were i got my iphone 3g and talk them into me upgrading

  • Corey

    im sure i can talk them into me upgrading my phone

  • calliope

    I thought it had to be 2 years since your last upgrade, not 2 years since you started on your current contract/plan… I upgraded 16 months ago but have had my contract/current plan since 22 months ago, but Rogers said I couldn't upgrade until next April (24 months since my last upgrade).

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    Right. It's 2 years since your last activation/upgrade

  • http://twitter.com/Daddydave18 David currie

    i think that's where you don't understand everything, rogers would never cancel a feature. I'm work for rogers, and I see people with old 7MB plans for their blackberry's. These plans have been around for 3+ years and nobody is forcing anybody to change them.

    On top of this, data plans are only getting cheaper as time goes on. Those 7MB data plans that i talked about above cost $25 a month. Current in market data plans that have 500MB of data cost $25

    Just though you'd like to know…
