Bell has tweaked its unlimited 5G plans for both bundle and mobile-only customers.
For those with Bell services, the Promo 50 plan at $65/50GB has been eliminated, leaving just the Essential 75 plan at $55/75GB and Ultimate 150 Canada/US plan at $75/150GB as the only plans available to those with bundled services.
For standalone unlimited 5G plans, a new Promo 55 offering appeared on Friday, at $70/55GB. It has non-shareable data and speeds up to 250 Mbps, with extra data at $20/1GB for up to 8GB ($0.02/MB thereafter) and includes SD video streaming.
As of writing, Bell is the only carrier out of the ‘Big 3’ to offer a 55GB unlimited 5G plan. Below is a summary of unlimited 5G plans from Rogers, Telus and Bell as of today. As you can see, price points remain about the same starting at $65 per month, but data buckets keep going up. Telus is the outlier with 25GB and 100GB plans, but expect them to increase their $65 plan to 50GB like Rogers and Bell.
The $65/50GB price point for 5G seems to be the standard right now. Telus-owned Public Mobile offers a $65/50GB 5G plan with a 90-day subscription (it was at $55 on promo before).
For everyone else that doesn’t need 5G speeds, flanker brand Fido, Virgin Plus and Koodo have some offerings right now that should more than satisfy, such as $50/40GB plan from Fido and Virgin Plus (it’s $60 from Koodo).

Offer a $35 for 15 GB including 5G then I will be tempted.
You can get 25gb for 45 5g normal price at gophonebox, but I have 3 line at promo price of 30$ for 20g 5g with them. You need to email them about switching to this promo plan (not shown anywhere) and ask them about it. It works most of the time, but on 1 account I had to argue some.
no hotspot? dafaq? no hd streaming? now everyone is hoping for all carriers to jump on call/text/data for canada/usa! this is the plans we need and hope for
SD video on 5G? That’s like upgrading your water pressure to your house, except the catch is that it just trickles out for showers lol. What’s the point of 5G if you can’t even use the speed for video???
