bobsallyh Posted May 12, 2016 Report Share Posted May 12, 2016 Kirk, when we were there in 2014, the commercial parks we stopped in varied. Some you got a little time free, any more a subscription was needed. Several had what I'd call unlimited but most of the time for that you had to go to the laundry etc. We really didn't need the inet traveling thru Canada but a park we were in in Whitehorse had wi-fi. So we were wanting to meet up with some friends in Skagway. I sent 2 emails to them and a 3rd email elsewhere and on the screen came up a message "you have used your free daily 30 minutes, next free session will start 24 hours from now. Or you can come to the office and buy time". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Signal Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 I now have a Cricket phone just for my business trips to Canada. Great deal . And they are on the Rogers network in Canada . Which is the best up there. Can't beat their deals. Keeping You ConnectedProud Commercial Member #129 http://www.maximumsignal.net/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darryl&Rita Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Rogers is the best? Maybe pricing, but definitely not coverage. They're getting better, but have always focused on the high density population centres, at the expense of outlying areas. Beware.

They have performed best for me. Sorry if you feel I am giving misinformation.

Darryl&Rita Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 No need to apologize, Gord. Southern Ontario is fairly dense, population-wise, compared to most of western Canada. Most places with road access have reasonable cell coverage, but Rogers is the 3rd place provider in Canada. I didn't mean to come off crass, but was trying to make others aware. I have been wrong before, I'll probably be wrong again. 2000 Kenworth T 2000 w/N-14 and 10 speed Gen1 Autoshift, deck built by Star Fabrication 2006 smart fourtwo cdi cabriolet 2007 32.5' Fleetwood QuantumPlease e-mail us here.

SWharton Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 Coverage is spotty just like in the US, nothing new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technomadia Posted May 18, 2016 Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 The advantage of going with T-Mobile up in Canada is that they partner with most of the carriers up there.. and you can switch between them at any given location. It gives you the best overall options for coverage. When we were in NS, Quebec and PEI this month - we were able to connect to six different carriers, finding what was best for us.
