It did not take long for Bell to adjust the price and service
structure for the Bell Wireless Internet 5 (BWI5), the name of the service provided
in the Deferral Account areas.
The major changes are in the hardware, the data caps and the
basic costs.
b. The new data cap is increased to 40 GB monthly from
20 GB with the option to add an additional 20 GB per month. I received
confirmation from Bell that the 20 GB usage insurance will remain at $10.00;
c. The basic service is now $49.95 (plus taxes) per
month on a 2 year term, an increase from $41.95. There is no reduction if the user
buys the Turbo Hub outright.
As per the usual Bell practise, the new terms are only being
offered to new subscribers only. (In Bell-speak, a new subscriber usually means
a subscriber who has not had a similar service from Bell within the last 3
months.)
Like the original BWI5 service, this new service is only available
on a direct sales basis from Bell Canada at 1-866-668-9104. The local Bell Stores do not handle this product line.
The qualification to receive BWI5 service remains the same i.e.
one must live in designated Deferral Account area.
