Have you ever had “Bill Shock”, this is a common monthly experience for many Canadians as the major mobile carriers have the ability to mark up their prices to an unbeleivable level. Recent action by the federal government had begun in order to counteract these ridiculous prices.

It seems as though Telus will be the first to respond to the changes, Telus announced a new contract strategy Tuesday. In this strategy Telus states that it will get rid of the costly termination fees for early cancelation of ones contract. As well Telus states that it will replace the costly data charges those with smartphones receive, a much needed announcement for tons of Telus smartphone users.

In addition to price charges that Telus will change, they announced that by early next year they will start making their phones compatible to be “unlocked” for a small charge, and thus be able to work on any other network.
