The service will be available in Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto, Ottawa and soon in Montreal with future plans for other Canadian markets.
"Canadians have indicated they want unlimited talk and text with simple, worry-free plans on a network that is trusted to deliver quality service," said Garrick Tiplady, Senior Vice President, chatr. "With chatr, customers will have a no worry, talk happy experience."Operating on the global standard of GSM and HSPA technology platforms, chatr customers can benefit from great handsets at great prices, the strength of 3G technology, and a worry-free talk and text experience.
The chatr network has fewer dropped calls than new wireless carriers because it has more cellular sites, better indoor and underground reception, and a seamless Canadian network. chatr will offer quality name-brand phones starting from $60: Nokia 1661, Nokia 2680, LG GB125r, and Samsung Gravity.
"With chatr, customers can use their phones freely, never having to think about how many minutes they've used or how many texts they've sent," said Tiplady.
"They'll benefit from cost certainty knowing that when they use their phones within their chatr zones, they'll pay just one low flat fee without any extra charges."
The service will be available for purchase at chatr stores in major malls and through hundreds of retail locations. Partners include Wireless Wave, Future Shop, Best Buy, Telephone Booth, London Drugs, Wireless Etc...(Costco), and Zellers.
