downtown PATH

Hey,

Does anyone know if mobi will expand their service to the path. My reception is great in Markham now, however I still do not have any reception anywhere in the path. I will hate to miss a business call but I understand the trade off when I left FIDO.

When I called last month, they said there were no plans for the "PATH". Any comments? insight?

Cheers,

Mobilicity does work in parts of PATH. There is usable signal is parts of the basement of Eaton Centre, Union Station, and there is signal in The Skywalk.

Worst case is to sign up with speakout and forward your calls. A $25 voucher lasts a whole year.

I know this is working alternative (better than not having service).

But you'd figure in their biggest market and the heart of the financial district, Mobilicity would focus on getting a working signal in the entire area.

Unfortunately in this aspect Wind is way ahead of the game since the PATH is now 80% covered. I remember that Dave said in the beginning of the year that the PATH coverage is a priority... oh well

I agree. I hope Mobi will move a faster to "densify" the home zones as well as it could be before the year is done as Dave himself said.

I know Mobi doesn't have as much as resources Wind, but Wind's expansions craze is insane in the amount of work done in the amount of time. I have a bad feeling that Mobi will not expand to their home zones till the end of 2012 and 2013.

I decided to park with Mobi since I very rarely leave the home zone and rather have an amazing home zone than coverage everywhere in Canada but I just don't see the "densification" and the year is almost done. I hope I didn't make the wrong decision.

They HAVE to expand and leave dead spots on the expansion or else they have to give up their license.

I know they do, but 2013 is the year that they have to expand by and if Mobi places towers as the pace they have been, I think they will essentially put 2 towers in each new area and say they have covered it to not lose the license. I honestly don't believe the new licensed area's such as KW/Niagra would be covered by Mobi by 2013.

I hope Mobi can prove me wrong.
