Nova Scotia folks
 
Hi,

Can you recommend which mobile phone provider is best for coverage in NS. I'll be in Lunenburg to start and once I get job hunting probably end up in Halifax/Dartmouth however haven't ruled out Charlottetown on PEI??

Cheers
Jules

Im with Rogers right now (through work), but they're pretty crap. I dont live out in the sticks, but I've had to buy a blue tooth headset because unless the phone is on the window sill, I cant get reception in the house.
My wifes phone (with Bell) has no such issues.

I am on the South Shore and with Bell. Very good coverage. Another mobile on Rogers and very bad.
I have heard from several people who cover a lot of Nova Scotia that in remote areas Bell gives the best coverage.

Thank you guys, I'm just spending lunch time looking at phone contracts and how much I'll be looking at spending each month!

So many options it really depends on what you need now & later - local calls, long distance, overseas, data, text etc....
You dont want to get trapped in a long term contract if your needs change.
Maybe the best is a pay as you go until you settle down & find a good 'special' offer.
