Carrier to sell unlimited wireless in popular convenience store chain
TORONTO, Nov. 11 /CNW/ - In a deal that will make buying unlimited wireless offerings more convenient than ever for Canadians, Mobilicity today confirmed its products will soon be available at 7-Eleven Canada stores across Toronto, Vancouver and Edmonton.
"Like 7-Eleven, Mobilicity caters to customers looking for value and convenience," said Mobilicity's Vice President, Sales, Doug Perry. "We take the complexities out of wireless so that everything from buying a phone to using that phone is convenient for our customers. Being able to buy Mobilicity's unlimited wireless, day or night at 7-Eleven, will only add to that convenient customer experience."
"We are excited to be the first national convenience store chain to offer Mobilicity," said Roger Barratt, product manager for 7-Eleven Canada. "Mobilicity's unlimited offerings support our overall goal of providing our customers with convenience and quality, and it enhances our position as the contract-free wireless destination in the convenience store industry."
Mobilicity will offer value-packed, unlimited mobile phone offerings - without a contract or credit check - at almost 150 7-Eleven locations later this year in time for the busy holiday shopping season.
Mobilicity's industry-leading, pay-in-advance, unlimited talk, text and data plans ensure bill certainty, thus eliminating the risk of incurring the extra fees and unexpected charges, which have become all-too-commonly found on Canadian wireless bills.
