Hi!

How can visitors use their existing GSM phone in Toronto using Canadian telecom services?

Are there any offers available for only SIM card rentals for short period?

Hi,

They can use prepaid rogers. Right now rogers is offering a very good deal 1 cent per mt for night and wknds.

I know of one store on dundas # 416 231 0900 they do rogers activation.

Thanks Nalini,

I spoke to this person. SIM card can be bought at $25.00 only from this shop. Then it is pay-as-you-go program.

I'm probably too late but one can buy the simm card from places like ebay for much cheaper. e.g: a fido sim card which costs 25$ can be got for as less as 10$. I've activated 2 phones(one a triband from dubai) via sim cards purchased in this way. Then pay as you go.

Amit,

Try this place for SIM's - http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums" rel="nofollow">LINK - Check under Buy/Sell. I've personally bought SIM's from here for $10.

Also, depending on when you need the SIM (immediately or can wait for a week), if you search on ebay for 'FIDO SIM PAY-AS-YOU-GO', you should get good deals. Ive previously bought

1. Rogers SIM + $100 value (valid for 1 year) + activation + shipping for $35. It took a week to arrive.
2. FIDO SIM + $70 value + activation + shipping for $26, again a week to arrive

Keep in mind the fone from India should be a tri-band or a quad-band. Dual-band fones from India WILL NOT work in NA, even if they're unlocked.

If you need help, searching on redflag deals PM me.

Thanks guys,

I just got the SIM from above Dundas/ 427 shop. Paid $25.00 plus $10 card from Rogers. I was in a rush and wanted it for a friend who is arriving tonight.

Cheers,
