MONTRÉAL, March 12, 2018 /CNW
Telbec/ - Bell today announced that Lucky Mobile, Canada's new
low- cost prepaid wireless service, is now available to residents
of Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
Launched initially in Ontario,
Alberta and British Columbia in December, Lucky Mobile
puts budget-conscious Canadians in complete control of their mobile
services with simple, no surprises prepaid plans starting at just
$20 for unlimited local talk with no
long-term commitment.
Lucky Mobile is ideal for students, people on a fixed income or
those without an established credit history who are looking for a
straightforward way to access the calling, texting and data they
need with no pay-per-use or surprise overage charges. Customers are
always notified by text if they are about to use services not
included in their prepaid monthly plan, and have the option of
purchasing a $3 or $5 Service Pass valid for 30 days if they wish to
continue using them.
Service Passes are also an affordable and convenient way for
Lucky Mobile customers to stay in touch with friends and family in
more than 130 countries around the world. And with Lucky Mobile,
all incoming international calls and texts are included in every
plan.
"Expanding the reach of Lucky Mobile to Manitoba and Saskatchewan provides even more Canadians with
access to a great new low-cost wireless service option," said
Blaik Kirby, President of Bell
Mobility. "With no credit checks, no long term commitments and no
surprises, Lucky is the always predictable and affordable way to
access all the wireless services you need."
Lucky Mobile offers service in 19 zones covering most major
cities across the country, now including Winnipeg, Regina and Saskatoon. Unlimited in-zone local calling is
priced at only $20 per month.
For Lucky customers looking to add texting and data, the
$40 Zone plan includes unlimited
Canada-wide calls, unlimited Canada-wide and international texts,
and 1 GB of data at 3G speeds. And all Lucky Mobile plans include
voicemail, unlimited nationwide and international incoming calls
and texts, call display, call waiting and 3-way calling.
Customers can also choose from economical province-wide or
Canada-wide plans if they are more likely to be using their phones
out of zone. Unlimited province-wide calling with 100 Canadian and
international texts is only $25 a
month. For an additional $10,
customers can opt for unlimited Canada-wide calling and unlimited
Canada-wide and international texts.
Lucky Mobile customers will receive even more value later this
year with a new mobile app to let them talk and text over Wi-Fi
outside of their monthly usage plan.
