Cell Phone info
Fido does not work inside the CS building!
Rogers does, and they have a store in the campus village marketplace.
I don't know about Telus or Mobility.
Bring your passport and a major credit card when applying!
Some plans give discounts if you can prove you're a UBC employee.
(Information from Kevin Murphy)
I use Telus, it works in my office (3rd floor of CS1).
I've switched to Virgin Mobile. (I think they resell Sprint PCS?)
It works fine from my office (3rd floor old building, south exposure)
and I've generally had no problems around town. If you're an
emergency-use-only cell phone person, they're a good pre-paid plan.
