Telus Revamps Plans Overview

In a surprising twist for Canadian wireless consumers, Vancouver's telecom giant Telus has announced significant changes to its plans, slashing prices and enhancing data options. The latest offer features an enticing $90/month plan that includes a whopping 200GB of 5G data with usage available in Canada, the U.S., and Mexico. This marks a noteworthy reduction from the previous price of $105 per month.

Expectations for Black Friday

Telus has yet to unveil any Black Friday deals, but industry experts speculate that these new offerings are likely to play a role in the upcoming promotions.

New Plan Offerings

As it stands, here’s a rundown of the enticing new plans currently available from Telus (all plans include a $5/month autopay discount):

Current Plans

- **$90/month for 200GB** of 5G data (2Gbps speeds) with Canada/U.S./Mexico usage – down from $105/month.

- **$70/month for 175GB** of 5G data (250Mbps speeds) – previously $75 for 100GB (2Gbps speeds).

- **$60/month for 100GB** of 5G data (250Mbps speeds) – previously $65 for 100GB (2Gbps speeds, BYOP—Bring Your Own Phone).

- **$20/month for talk and text only.

Removed Options

While these new plans do provide more value, it's essential to note that Telus has removed previous options, such as the $80/month for 150GB (2Gbps, BYOP) and $90/month for 150GB (2Gbps). As of now, they have not introduced any equivalent replacements for these plans.

Competitive Landscape

Despite these improvements, Telus still trails behind some competitors in the market. For instance, Freedom Mobile currently offers a $55/month plan for 100GB of 5G data, which includes roaming across Canada, the U.S., and Mexico—an incredible deal that is hard to ignore.

Conclusion

As Telus continues to reshape its offerings, it remains to be seen how these new plans will stack up against rivals during the competitive holiday season. Watch out for exciting deals this Black Friday that could change the landscape of mobile plans in Canada!
