Phone Plans
Cell phone plans
Every published cell phone plan we hold: 172 plans at 14 brands, captured 2026-11-15. A published plan price is a ceiling rather than a price: the figure a carrier prints for a customer who asks for nothing. Read these tables as the opening position, and the negotiation guide below as the way under it. Every record carries source_type and source_url. Records marked secondary were read on a reputable Canadian source quoting the carrier's published price because the carrier's own page was JS-rendered, blocked, or rate-limited on capture day; they are NOT carrier-page captures. Prices are published prices only; reported retention/winback figures live in NEGOTIATION.md, never here. Records marked primary were read on the carrier's own page; for Public Mobile, Freedom Mobile, Videotron, Fizz, SaskTel and Eastlink that reading was a live-browser verification pass on 2026-11-15, and a second live-browser pass the same day covered Rogers, Fido, Bell, Virgin Plus, Lucky Mobile, Telus and Koodo (Chatr could not be loaded, connection reset on every attempt, and remains secondary; see COVERAGE.md).

How each plan was captured
How each plan was captured is printed on its row. A plan marked as read on the carrier's own site was recorded from that carrier's published plan pages. A plan marked as resting on secondary sources was recorded from published comparison reporting because the carrier's own pages could not be read directly; Chatr is the one brand in that position for every one of its plans, after its site refused every connection attempt on capture day. Secondary rows are kept because they are the published record available, and they are labelled so no reader mistakes them for a first-hand read. The documented record of retention and winback offers, set out in the negotiation guide, shows Canadians who ask paying materially less for the same networks.
Paying less than the published price
The published price is the starting point, not the price Canadians who negotiate actually pay. The estate's phone plan negotiation guide sets out the documented retention and winback patterns, with every reported figure dated and sourced.
