Need suggestion on using mobile phone in Canada
Hi, I'm going to Canada from Thailand and will bring my Nokia phone with me. Would it be convenient to buy a prepaid simcard and recharge card while I'm there?
Thanks |
As in the United States, most mobile phones in Canada are not GSM. However, Rogers does offer GSM service through its Fido subsidiary, so you will be able to use a prepaid SIM card if your phone is compatible. Check the Fido website for details.

Thank you very much Laverndrye

BOTH Rogers and Fido are GSM networks, so you have a choice as to which carrier you go with. Although Rogers owns Fido, they are operated as separate entities and it would be worth your while to compare prepaid price plans.
