Koodo Mobile Adds New Voice/Data Packages, Releases INQ Chat 3G
Koodo is moving on up! Telus’ little brother subsidiary is releasing several new voice and data plans, as well as the new INQ Chat 3G that we reported earlier in the week.
The new plans, according to a leaked brochure, will be as follows:
$40 Stay Social Plan - Unlimited text and picture messages, unlimited incoming calls, 300 anytime minutes with unlimited evenings(7pm) and weekends, and the social add-on
$70 More Nationwide Talk and Text Combo - Unlimited text and picture messages, no long-distance or roaming charges within Canada, up to 1000 nationwide anytime minutes, unlimited evenings(7pm) and weekends, and voicemail/call display.
They are also launching 2 new data plans, the first of which costs $10 and includes 100MB of usage for web browsing, Twitter and Facebook, Windows Live, etc. The second plan costs $25, and includes 500MB of data usage.
This is in conjunction with the INQ Chat 3G, a messaging phone available on Koodo and soon on Telus, for $200 (or $50 on the Tab). The phone boasts “One inbox for all your texts, Facebook messages, Tweets and emails,” which is sure to appeal to the hyper texters of the teenage persuasion.
