Chatr Mobile flash sale adds 2GB of bonus data to plans for 12 months

Rogers’ flanker brand Chatr Mobile launched another flash sale offering customers 2GB of bonus data per month for 12 months.

New activations of a ‘Talk, Text & Data’ plan priced $35 or more will get the 2GB data bonus. Chatr notes in the fine print that the bonus will expire if the account becomes inactive or if customers change their plan.

Chatr’s eligible plans are as follows:

  • $70/mo 20GB with Unlimited Canada/U.S. Talk
  • $60/mo 15GB with Unlimited Canada/U.S. Talk
  • $50/mo 10GB with Unlimited Canada/U.S. Talk
  • $40/mo 4.5 with Unlimited Canada-wide Talk
  • $35/mo 2.5GB with Unlimited Canada-wide Talk

All the above plans can get the 2GB bonus. They also come with unlimited texting and customers who sign up for auto-pay will get a bonus of 500MB of data each month.

Chatr’s flash sale ends March 14th.

Rogers discounts a couple plans by $5/mo for a limited time

Toronto-based national carrier Rogers discounted two of its plans by $5/mo. The move comes after Rogers replaced its $110/mo 65GB plan with a $100/mo 50GB plan.

Now, that 50GB plan costs $95/mo for a limited time. Along with the change to the 50GB plan, Rogers reduced its $95/mo 45GB plan to $90/mo.

A $5/mo discount may not sound like a huge amount, but it can add up over time. For example, $5/mo over two years adds up to $120 in total. Naturally, I’d like a larger monthly discount, but $5 off is $5 off.

Rogers’ plans as of March 8, 2022

Rogers’ change almost matches a similar discount Telus applied to its plans a few days ago. Both carriers have $85/mo 25GB base plans (unchanged by the new discounts) and $95/mo 50GB plans. The only real difference is the middle plan — Rogers’ $90/mo 45GB plan to Telus’ $85/mo 40GB plan. Oh, and the other major difference is Telus’ recently-added data speed caps.

Bell also tweaked its plans, offering prices similar to Rogers and Telus, but it still has a $100/mo 50GB price.

You can check out Rogers’ plans here.

Koodo launches Spring Sale with discounts on phones and pre-owned devices

Telus’ flanker brand Koodo launched a ‘Spring Sale’ with several deals on phones and plans.

Well, mostly phones. The provider still has the same $55/10GB and $60/15GB plans added in February, but now with fancy ‘Promotion’ stickers tacked on. Still, if you’re in the market for a new phone and don’t mind Koodo’s new data speed caps, there are some offers to consider:

Koodo also has some offers on ‘Certified Pre-owned’ devices:

  • iPhone XS – $0 down, $15/mo Tab + get a $200 Visa gift card
  • iPhone XS Max – $0 down, $17/mo Tab + get a $200 Visa gift card
  • iPhone XR – $0 down, $12/mo Tab + get a $150 Visa gift card

Finally, it’s worth noting that Koodo is offering $100 in savings if you shop online during the Spring Sale. However, what that actually means is new customers who get an eligible 4G speed data plan that costs $45/mo or more can get a $50 bill credit and Koodo will waive the $50 connection fee.

You can check out all the Koodo Spring Sale offers here.

Telus discounts its 40GB and 50GB plans by $5/mo for a limited time

Vancouver-based national carrier Telus has discounted two of its “unlimited” plans by $5/mo and raised another by $5/mo

Telus’ $90/mo 40GB plan now costs $85, while its $100/mo 50GB plan now costs $95. Both changes are marked as limited-time offers — it’s not clear how long they’ll stick around.

The $85/40GB offer is particularly good — as far as $85/mo plans go — since it’s the same price as Telus’ $85/25GB plan, but with an extra 15GB of data. More importantly, however, is that the $85/40GB plan doesn’t have the 250Mbps data speed cap that the 25GB plan has. Instead, the 40GB plan has a 1Gbps speed cap.

If the data speed caps sound weird to you, that’s likely because they’re new. Telus added speed caps to its mobile plans back in February. On the one hand, 250Mbps is probably more than enough speed for the majority of mobile users. On the other hand, it’s yet another restriction applied to obscenely expensive mobile plans. Plus, Telus applied speed caps to its flanker brand Koodo too.

It’s also worth noting that when Telus added the speed caps to its plans, the base 20GB plan cost $80/mo. Sometime between February 17th and now, Telus changed that plan to $85/mo for 25GB — it’s not entirely clear when that change happened.

Regardless, if you’re in the market for a plan with 40GB of data, Telus’ new $85/40GB plan is an all right offer by comparison — both Rogers and Bell offer $95/mo 45GB plans, but I’d happily take $10/mo in savings for 5GB less data.

Get up to $236 in trade-in credit towards Samsung Galaxy S21 FE

Source: https://www.samsung.com/ca/smartphones/galaxy-s21-5g/galaxy-s21-fe-5g/

If you were thinking about buying Samsung’s new Galaxy S21 Fan Edition (FE) but weren’t thrilled by the admittedly lacklustre carrier offers, maybe Samsung’s own deal will work instead.

As spotted by users over at RedFlagDeals, Samsung is currently offering up to $236 in trade-in credit when you buy the S21 FE. Additionally, customers will get two cases with the purchase — one ‘Navy’ case and one ‘White’ case. Both cases have a regular price of $59.99. The case portion of the offer is only available until February 7th, 2022.

The trade-in deal, as well as a second AirMiles offer, on the other hand, are both available until March 9th. Samsung’s website notes that the $236 trade-in value is “based on trading in a Galaxy S9+ 64GB,” so the actual value you get may differ. Judging by the fine print, however, it seems Samsung applies an extra $150 promotional credit to the trade-in value:

“Receive a trade-in promotional credit of $150, in addition to the trade-in value of the Eligible Trade-in Product, when you:
(i) purchase eligible Galaxy S21 FE 5G device between January 11th, 2022 and March 9th, 2022 (the “Offer Period”), from a participating authorized Canadian retailer or carrier, a Samsung Experience Store in Canada or online at https://www.samsung.com/ca/; and
(ii) complete the trade-in of your eligible smartphone (the “Eligible Trade-In Product”) by March 9th, 2022; and
(iii) ship the Eligible Trade-in Product within 14 calendar days of receiving the waybill.”

Assuming you get the advertised $236 trade-in credit, the Samsung S21 FE price will go from $949.99 to $713.99. Combined with the two free cases, that’s some pretty solid savings overall.

Finally, the Air Miles offer will net customers 200 Air Miles Bonus Miles with purchases of an S21 FE and an extra 100 Air Miles Bonus Miles when they purchase Samsung Care+ on a new S21 FE. Of the listed deals, that’s probably the least exciting unless you plan on getting Care+ and happen to be an Air Miles collector too.

You can check out the Galaxy S21 FE offers on Samsung Canada’s website here.

Save $112 on Apple AirPods Max or $70 on AirPods Pro

If you’re looking for savings on Apple’s best audio products, there are some decent deals out there.

First up, Amazon Canada has Apple’s AirPods Max on sale for $666.92, down from the regular $779. That’s a discount of $112.38 or about 14 percent. While not the biggest price drop ever, for a relatively new Apple product, it’s not insignificant.

The only downside is Amazon only has the ‘Pink’ AirPods Max colour on sale. If you were hoping to snag a different colour, those are still $779.

You can get the Amazon Canada AirPods Max deal here.

The other deal is at The Source and is a discount on Apple’s AirPods Pro. Regularly $329.99, the AirPods Pro are now on sale for $259.99. That brings the price down by $70 (about 21 percent off).

The Source’s website notes the price will go back to $329.99 on December 1st, so you have some time to act on those ones.

You can get the AirPods Pro from The Source here.

iPhone in Canada initially spotted both deals.
