Cell Phones

I'm finally going to get a cell phone (i know i know) after thinking about it for so long, and after my pager went through the wash and turned Chinese. Literally. I'm looking for something that has good service and reception, and none of that contract stuff. So basically i'm going to buy a phone then pay monthly or phone cards.

So does anyone have any suggestions on what companies to go with? I've checked out most of them and Bell Mobility sounds pretty good. Any info would be cool. Thanks in advance.

matt you better give me your number when you get it, and like i said a thousand times at apex we should soooo go for coffee lol. *i was so high*
a friend of mine at bell says there aloud to give back like %40 or something like that of the amount you spend a year there in promotions, so like if something messes up theyll give you other things for free provided you ask nicely?? i dono, something to keep in mind.

i'm with bell and they've been good so far.
i'm on month by month and i got a good plan and price for my phone. none of this $300/phone and outrageous plans because i'm not contracted. good reception and customer service is good too.

oh.. and there's always hot guys working in the bell mobility stores. [at least, when i've been in.]

why don't you just get a new pager if you're so anti-phone?

offset: what area do you live/work in? what area would you normally use your phone most at. think of that, and then ask were everyone else is located.

i don't think it's about which carrier, it's about which phone. shitty phones have shitty reception. i know a few people with telus, and their reception sucks ass at home.
