Same price everywhere.. but get it now, it's on sale for $219.99 WITHOUT a contract. Or even cheaper with contract... after Christmas, it's going back to regular price of $299.99

not sure if this works in Ontario... i also didn't read the whole thread... but it seems
like some people got it for $269.99 + tax
I assume you can then sign a contract to get $50 off, not sure how that works...

You should check out howardforums...
but here is the link to the thread i was talking about
A520 for $269.99

just wonderin if the a520 is any good. (the color screen one)

the last full color screen one had the worst battery life, i hope its no the same for this phone.

i think the prices are all the same everywhere.

To answer all of your questions, I work for Telus and am also the proud owner of the Samsung A520. The phone was released at $299.99 and will be going up to $399.99 as of January 1. If people want my staff discount I can take 25% off the price for probably maximum 5 people. This would bring the price down to $225 + tax. Signing a 1 year contract will give you a $50 credit to your phone bill. Telus will give you a 60-day trial period to use your phone and decide if you'd really like the contract.

As for the battery, it'll last 5 days if you never open it and just have it turned on, but I normally charge mine every 2 days or so. The screen it 1000% better then the Sanyo 5000 (the previous colour screen by Telus) and is super-clear and super-bright!

I love mine[IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG]

i have to admit dsomething. i have had many cell phones and with different companies...by far telus and fido have been the best. i dont like telus cuz they bill by the minute but give me really good service. my phones have been replaced 3 times and have never given me a hassle about it. the forst phone was a problem that was recalled on all those phones or something like that...and the one i have now is just messed up....its not from me but they are fixing it. i have had cantel and rogers and they are crappty....they have good rates but bad reception....trying taking your phone to the states...they get you in roaming charges. Bell is alright...


but ithink telus is good.....plus you get rebates on your phone and stuff, but i think other companies have that as well

 
Rep Power: 0

i think all the companies are by the minute... except maybe fido for their monthly plans...
unless you were already on a plan that was billed by the second...
too bad rogers had billing by the second after the first minute...

the phone that lights up blue?
Samsung A540?

sorry big, i just go the ph today at pacific, cant wait, haha, but thanx for your help, just wondering, im using the 30 bucks plan (50 daytime minutes, unlimited weekend/weeknight)is that 50 daytime minutes bill by second or minute???and i didnt add any web borwsing plan, is that mean i cant use web browser or telus will just charge me everypage i use the broswer??[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG], and i love this phone, good graphics, good sound, but too bad i cant change the colour of the external lcd display[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG], but its all good

one other bad thing, $1.45 for a wallpaper/animation or ring tone per download...........is there any accessory i can buy to connect to my pc and download for free?

 
Rep Power: 349

the 50 mins aree billed by the minute. there is a download fee, but you don't get charged for the airtime that you use while on the browser. you can get a data kit to use with your laptop/pc, but it won't help you download stuff, its only for wireless web. congrats on the new phone

 
Rep Power: 0

so no matter what there will be a download fee?and the price depends on which image/ringtone i download?i see that theres a free trial download on telus website[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG], but im just charging the ph right now so dont wanna turn ph on, is there a fee viewing telus website using the phone also?[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

The last two Samsung phones for Telus have been reported to have poor sound quality and RF performance. They are more form over function.

Reported by who??? Do you have one??

You still gotta pay the download fee for the free trial.......its *****
