We’re into the thick of summer and that means it’s time to take a look at cellphone pricing from Rogers, Telus, Bell and Freedom Mobile in July, compared to June. Let’s get right into it shall we?
Rogers
Rogers has increased prices across the board by $5, just like it did for its plans with Fido. The 100GB plan now has a 24 month roaming cap instead of 12.
Telus
No changes yet compared to June. But Telus says its plans above end today, so expect new prices (likely hikes) tomorrow. We’ll keep you updated.
Bell
As for Bell, it has increased prices across the board by $5 per month as well.
Freedom Mobile (All plans include global roaming)
No major changes from Freedom Mobile, other than the 25GB plan ending today, so that means some changes are coming tomorrow.
Again, we’re seeing the same playbook time and time again. Prices are up in the summer when people are out and about and not paying attention. But then when the back to school season returns, that’s when prices will drop again to spark some sales. If you need a new plan, it’s best to hold the line until Black Friday in November.

Bullshit, I use bell and get 175 gigs 5g for 50 dollars a month. You are a bunch of liars.
Chill dude, expect it to go up soon…Bell is the most aggressive company.they will most likely increase your bill a few dollars per months so enjoy that plan before you switch to another provider….unless you have a 2yr contract……..
Your plan might be an older one or you might have a plan that is EPP.
I use Freedom network $68 a mth free roaming can,usa,mex. Problem is the network sucks. Drop calls , bad reception,
Have to use house phone to make calls because my network Freedom won’t connect my calls my phone does not ring or goes to voice mail I miss lots of calls
I had my phone settings checked and my phone is fine I use a Google Pixel.
This is true.
We have 2 Freedom Mobile lines for $40 each with 250gb and 10 gb roaming each. That includes Canada, US and Mexico. No issues with the lines and they have been used in the US.
In Vancouver: Over-stayed with Freedom until I gave up after to many dead zones and network problems you’ve noted. The phone repeatedly switching to roam on Telus’ network (to many times). No need to guess who’s network (pre-paid) I switched to with none of these issues.
My family has been with bell for 2 years best phone company hands down we live in Windsor never drops calls and we travel to the USA alot I even used my phone while being a truck driving driving all over the USA never had a bad signal we don’t travel much in Canada so you might be more north but in south Canada London Toronto phone works great
Do you have your wifi calling setup on your phone? If not, you can set this up and your phone can use internet wifi. You won’t need to use your house phone.
Hmm. I pay 27.50 for Freedom including taxes and get 25gb data. Maybe because I am long time customer.
Freedom $50 for 250 GB and 20 Roam beyond.
