Re: How to buy the Diamond

I hope I'm not hijacking this thread, but it's not carrier specific in the title, so hopefully I'll be able to help out some of my fellow Canadians, at least those of the Telus persuasion!
First, make sure that you login at www.mytelusmobility.com and click on "myoffer/myorder". I noticed that I had a free data device on a 3 year renewal sitting on there for months, so when the Diamond was released, I took full advantage.
I went down to the Telus store to pick it up and the credit was applied at the time of purchase. I also had a $25.00 bill credit on file, so they applied that to the $25.00 handset change fee. To make a long story short, no money changed hands at all, and I didn't have to wait for delivery.
As far as the contract terms upon the renewal, I was able to keep everything, including discontinued plans like My Faves 10 and the original $15.00 unlimited data plan that allows tethering.
Hopefully this will save you either a little money or some time waiting for your contract to end!
Myke...
