Flanker Brands Launch $35/80GB Deals After Freedom Revives $40/250GB Plan
Rivals are racing to lock in customers during a short promo window.
Overview
- Fido, Koodo, and Virgin Plus are selling $35 per month plans with 80GB and Canada–US–Mexico roaming as limited-time offers that run through March 31.
- Freedom Mobile’s $40 plan is live through March 31 with 250GB usable in Canada, the U.S., and Mexico plus 50GB of Roam Beyond in 120+ destinations, priced after a $40 BYOP credit and a $5 autopay discount.
- Plan details vary across the flanker brands, with Koodo capping 5G at 250Mbps unless you add a free speed boost to 500Mbps, while Fido and Virgin list speeds up to 1Gbps with different calling and hotspot perks.
- Public Mobile reduced data on several plans, removed bonus international minutes, and introduced $60/100GB and $70/150GB options after earlier promos ended this week.
- For shoppers, these flash deals offer big roaming and data for far less than the roughly $85 major networks charge for global roaming, though value depends on fine print, coverage, and comfort with providers’ track records.
