Hi group

I am planning to get a Blackberry storm from either telus or Bell. I would appreciate if forum members can give their opinions about these 2 service providers in terms of network coverage/customer service and overall satisfaction with the service and help me pick one of them.

Thanks for all your help

hey the reviews for the STORM were not that wonderful and people are saying that the touch screen capability is not that sensitive. The BOLD is GREAT. I have it and LOVE it.

Sorrry, can't tell you about the service part of things...

I have been using BB Curve on Bell network for quite some time now. I see no problem either in Canada or US. Bell has one of the largest 3G network. I think Telus use Bell network as well.
Some people do complain about dropped calls in basement or in elevators. But I have not experienced it yet.

No issue with customer service with Bell.
Just curious, Who are your currently with? You can get very good deal from your existing service provider if you approach Customer retention department.

Thanks for the responses guys. I a with Fido and my contract came to an end next week. The reason I am looking to change is because I wanted to get BB storm. But like Guptamik said I did read some not so good reviews abt Storm . My other choice is iPhone but I am not a big fan of it. I am not sure if I wanna get BB Bold because it is a little too big for my linkkng. I am looking for somerhting that has good functionality along with sleek look. I think I will wait for the next release of BB storm.

Thanks anyways

Bell and Telus are spending money jointly to upgrade their network to the next generation. CDMA which Bell and Telus use is on a decline. GSM used by Rogers / Fido is in adoption by almost 95% of the world.

Having said that, i use a Bold also. But the Storm is great if u can get used to touch screen. I find that while driving its easier to use a keyboard than touchscreen.
