Bell to provide unlock codes for their HSPA handsets
It’s just a matter weeks before Bell finally flips the switch on their new HSPA network, and if the idea of this veteran player entering the GSM arena to rival Rogers isn’t enough to get you excited about it, maybe this latest news will.
Based on this leaked slide courtesy of BGR, it appears that Bell will also gladly hand-out unlock codes for their new handset provided you meet certain conditions. So, what exactly are these conditions? It’s actually quite a reasonable set of conditions including that your account should been active for at least a month, you’ll have honor the remaining period on your contract, and the handset obviously should have been purchased from Bell,.
It will come with a fee though which is the silver lining in this whole deal as we hear it could go as high as $250 per phone. It’s not exactly what we could consider as a competitively priced service especially when compared with the other options available in the market right now to unlock your phone, but hey, at least you won’t void your warranty in the process, right? So, is this good enough a reason for you switch to Bell soon or will you continue to gut it out with Rogers through thick and thin?
