Cellphone question.?

Question

I have bought a cellphone in another country, now I'm back in Canada, and I want to buy a good plan for my cellphone, one that lets me put a specific ammount of money on a cellphone and then I can use it whenever I want until the money runs out.

Thanks,

Answer 1

prepaid?

Answer 2

Well we need to know a little more about the phone. First, is it unlocked? Some phones are locked so that they can be used on a specific provider until the unlock code is requested. Second, is it a GSM (uses a SIM card ie T-Mobile) or CDMA (no SIM ie Verizon) phone?

With these answers you can narrow it down to a few eligible carriers.

Answer 3

Most cell phones have proprietary software already installed that limit the carrier that you can use.  You'll need to look into that before you can get service.
