last Chance for Wireless Savings in Canada
If you're looking to save on your wireless plan, now is the time to act.Canadian carriers are starting to phase out their Boxing Week promotions, meaning you have just a few days left to snag some deals before they disappear.
A Swift Overview of Major Carriers
Let’s take a closer look at the Big Three providers: Bell, Rogers, and Telus. during Boxing Week, these companies didn’t roll out any major discounts on their wireless plans. The only notable offer came from Rogers, which provided a 25GB data bonus with select plans.Though, this bonus has now been removed without any notable changes to the existing plans.
The big Three did present some smartphone offers during this period; though, many of these deals are still underwhelming when you analyze the costs involved. As a notable example, both Rogers and Telus feature financing options for the Galaxy S25 at $0 per month—but there’s more than meets the eye.
The Hidden Costs of smartphone Deals
While it may seem like you're getting a “free” phone upfront, customers must return it or pay an additional fee if they wish to keep it after their contract ends.Moreover,these offers frequently enough come bundled with pricey plans that can cost as much as $115 per month—totaling around $2,760 over two years! In most cases,buying an S25 outright for $1,198.99 and opting for a bring-your-own-phone (BYOP) plan would be more economical.
For example: A BYOP plan costing $50 monthly combined with purchasing an S25 outright would amount to about $2,399 over two years—saving you over $300 compared to those so-called “deals.” it’s wise not to fall for these promotions no matter how long they linger in front of you.
The Best Current Offers You Should Consider
If you're interested in BYOP options instead of sticking with one of the Big Three providers' costly plans and devices—there are still some fantastic deals available from othre carriers! Koodo Mobile is making waves with it's current offerings:
- $40/month for 60GB 5G across Canada/U.S./Mexico.
- $45/month for 70GB 5G nationwide coverage.
- $75/month for 100GB 5G service throughout canada.
Koodo's Plans as of January 7th!
Koodo has labeled these as limited-time promotions but hasn’t specified when they will end. Given that other flanker brands like Virgin Plus by Bell and Fido by Rogers have already adjusted their pricing post-Boxing Week—it’s likely Koodo's offers won’t last much longer either!
A Closer Look at Other Providers’ Plans
Freedom Mobile , meanwhile still boasts impressive Boxing Week offerings such as:
- $39/month for 70GB;
- $40/month for 100GB;
- $50/month for up to150GB;
Most Freedom Mobile plans also include roaming services through Roam Beyond—a great perk if you travel often!
Freedom's Plans as of January 7th!
Additonally,Koodo-owned Public Mobile offers similar competitive pricing options including::
- $40/month providing access up-to100 GB;
- $50 offering150 GB across Canada/U.S./Mexico .

Both freedom and Public have yet again not listed specific end dates on their promotional offers but given how closely matched their prices are—I suspect changes will occur once Freedom wraps up its current deals.
