Switching from Telus

I switched to Fido from Telus after being with them for 8 years. One reason was I signed a 3 yr contract with telus and got the Moto Q. I didn’t really like the phone. Their website says they have a 30 day return policy, but doesn’t say that isn’t on data phones. So I [...]

Thank you!

Hi,I just wanted to say thank you for visiting ‘Canadian iPhone User’. The site has been around for two months now and we have had over 10,000 visitors and 16,000 page views. I enjoy posting my thoughts and info about using an iPhone in Canada. I love the iPhone and I hope [...]

I will end up switching to Rogers

The way it looks, I will eventually switch to Rogers and leave my beloved Fido. Not right now of course but it looks that way in the future. From what I can see and what I’ve noticed, when the iPhone is finally available in Canada, it more than likely will only be available on [...]

What phone did you have before the iPhone?

Here’s an interesting question…What phone did you have before the iPhone? I believe that the iPhone is the best phone on the market. Even though it isn’t available in Canada it’s still fairly easy for us to get.The last phone that I had was the Moto KRZR K1 Red from Fido. I [...]

Not a fan of most 3rd party apps

I’m not really a fan of most third party applications that are available for jailbroken iPhones through installer. There are a lot of neat applications out there, but not too many that really appeal to me. I’ve had a lot of 3rd party apps on my iPhone but they generally only last a [...]

I was charged for edge data

No, I wasn’t charged for using the $7 plan or or mistakenly charged for overage on my 4 months on unlimited browsing on the $18 value pack from Fido. I posted a little while ago about being careful with edge settings. On my wife’s iPhone, I entered the edge settings to test to [...]

The Joy of Texting

My favorite thing about the iPhone is probably texting. It is so easy to send texts. I love the keyboard and the speed that you are able to type in it. No more hitting one key 3 or 4 times to get the right letter. Also, none of the T9 input BS. It’s also cool [...]

iPhone + Mac = sick setup!

I recently got a Macbook and I love it as much as my iPhone.  Ever since I got an iPhone, I have become totally interested in Apple and all of their products.  Apple products are so user friendly and look great.  My iPhone looks very nice standing beside my Macbook.  Syncing the two is also [...]

How much data does the iPhone use?

Since my 4 months of unlimited data on my fido $18 value pack has expired, I thought it would be a good idea to find out actually how much edge data does the iPhone use. This is important because I only have 12mb of data per month now. Not a whole lot.

First of [...]

Still don’t have one?

Not everyone is Canada has an iPhone yet. Many people who don’t have one are interested in buying one but are having a hard time doing so. The reason, either they aren’t able to go to the States themselves to buy one or they don’t want to pay an extra $100-200 for one that is [...]
