Just wondering what the best plans are for having a phone plan for the US. I heard it's better to get a plan in the US instead of getting one in Canada. I'm with bell and it would be $150 a month for 4GB of data and unlimited talk and text in the US. What kind of plans do you guys who run into the US use?
Best Canadian phone plan to run into US with?

See if you can get this one
It's unlimited talk text picture
3 gigs can be used anywhere canada/usa
90$
American phone plan not worth the money unless you get Verizon. I have a USA phone also and it's about $97/month. I just use it for data. I use a lot sometimes.Canadianhauler21 Thanks this. -
If you want a US plan 24/7/365 I can't help you.
If you want economical USA access for an occasional limited period, say 1 week or 1 month at a time, contact your provider to purchase this add-on. I'm with Telus, and this comes in useful for vacation or other trips into the USA. Much cheaper than roaming. -

$15 gbs data
Cad/US plan from TelusBigHossVolvo and upnorthwpg Thank this. -
Unless you are on some corporate plan
What network does telus use in USA? -
I have a Canada/US plan through Telus. It's a $60 (?) plan with an addon data package (I think it's $20 for 10 GB) and a $10 roaming addon for the US. After taxes its under $100 a month and saves me a whole lot of money rather than using that $7/day "roam like home" option.
Just note that any US-carrier plan you get, it'll charge people you call in Canada for any call or text you get.Last edited: May 12, 2018
