Telus-owned Koodo launched a new $45/60GB plan, effectively rendering two of its other wireless plans redundant. Unfortunately, the new plan doesn’t really offer a discount either.
Check out Koodo’s current plan options below (new options in bold). Note that each price includes a $10/mo auto-pay discount if you pay via your bank account. Additionally, all the plans have 4G data speeds capped at 100Mbps and unlimited Canada-wide calling and texting, plus one free perk with options varying from plan to plan.
- $35/10GB
- $45/40GB
- $45/60GB
- $50/60GB
- $60/100GB
The $45/60GB plan makes Koodo’s $45/40GB and $50/60GB plans redundant. There’s no point getting the 40GB plan when you get 20GB more data for the same price, and likewise there’s no point paying $5/mo for the exact same plan.
It’s not entirely clear how long the $45/60GB plan will be around. It’s marked as a promotional plan, but almost every other plan on Koodo’s website is, so that doesn’t mean much.
Notably, the $45/60GB actually returns Koodo to what it offered back in mid-June. Last month, Koodo and Virgin offered $40/60GB plans, and then increased the price to $45 to match Fido. Sometime between June 18 and now, Koodo upped the $45/60GB plan again to $50/60GB, but now the cheaper (but not the cheapest) version is back. At the time of writing, Virgin and Fido offered $45/60GB options.
As I’ve said many times before, however, there are cheaper options out there. I don’t think it makes sense for anyone to get the $45/60GB plan from Koodo when Public Mobile has a $36/60GB 5G plan with Canada/U.S./Mexico roaming, or while Freedom Mobile has a $39/60GB 5G Canada/U.S./Mexico plan.
