    Iphone on Telus Network Help Please!!!

    Alright so i have a couple questions i want to ask so this may be a long post sorry..
    so my situation is i have the TALK 20 package with the SPARK 15 (unlimited texts and whatnot) and i was wondering if i got an unlocked Iphone off ebay or something would i be able to switch it onto my telus network. Also would i have to put on an internet package to my phone bill? because when i went to get a new phone when mine crapped out all they offered was PDA's and they wouldnt let me get one without that internet package which brought my bill to expensive each month. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks!

    The iPhone is GSM and the Telus network is CDMA so there is absolutely no way of this happening. Your only option is Rogers or Fido. Also Telus only allows their own phones on their network so even if apple made a CDMA iPhone it wouldnt be compatable on the Telus network. End of story.

    So what you want to do is read the sticky to the icky. And it'll explain anything and everything.
    If you want an iPhone then you will need to go to either rogers or fido and then subscribe to one of their data plans id reccomend then 1 gig plan for 65 dollars.
    Hope this helps.
