After being caught in regulatory approval for years, Canada’s Innovation Minister, François-Philippe Champagne, has lastly authorised Rogers’ merger with Shaw and Vidéotron’s acquisition of Freedom Cell.
Now that Vidéotron has formally acquired Freedom, it has agreed to develop its 5G community in areas the place Freedom Cell already operates inside the subsequent two years. The corporate additionally says it would make its plan choices 20 p.c cheaper than main rivals, and knowledge allotments for Freedom’s prospects will improve by 10 p.c.
All the particulars are nonetheless unclear, however with Vidéotron now taking up Freedom Cell, are you keen to make the change if the model’s service is obtainable in your space?
Personally, I’d make the transfer. Vidéotron presents fairly good plans that provide 20GB of knowledge for $50 monthly with 100GB in your bucket for the yr, and knowledge at full speeds, the whole time. That stated, it’s unclear if Vidéotron will deliver these plans to Freedom Cell, but when the corporate does, I’d undoubtedly undergo the effort of fixing suppliers. Who wouldn’t?
Tell us within the feedback beneath in the event you’d make the change.
