Hi August

Sorry, I just saw this message. I wasn't getting packets for a while.

I've been with Lucky for over 5 years. A couple of years back I saw that
they now were offering  a plan at the same price with a couple of extra gig
but you have to pretend you are changing to a new package to get the new
data levels. (i.e. - Changing from their $40 plan to their $40 plan..)

But I haven't been on their main site in ages and I had no idea they had
made such drastic changes so, thanks, I'll have to go back and check it
out and maybe save $11 a month to get more than double the data.

You asked something about Top Up Balances not getting used up. I'm not sure
what you meant by that. I've had a positive balance there for quite a while,
if it's still there when I go to the site, and it stayed there for years
but I don't generally use Top Ups other than the payment for the full plan.

*******

This added later.. I checked that out online and all those super plans and
prices are for new customers only. I'm still glad you mentioned it because
it will allow me to go from the 5 gig plan at $40 to a new 10 gig plan at
faster speeds for $35 so that's better than nothing but it annoys me that
they offer these super deals to new customers, that I believe are locked
in, not temporary, (if they don't change their plan), but us loyal
long-time customers are given much worse options.

I hate to change suppliers but another place with super plans these days
is the NoName Mobile plans put out by Loblaws stores. I saw that on a
NoFrills store flyer and checked it out online and the plans look really
good (US coverage and lots more data at lower prices) and, as near as I
can tell, they are using the Bell Network so should have the same
coverage as Lucky and other Bell supported companies.
