My wife and I wanted separate telephone lines, so that we could call each other in (e.g.) find each other a mall or crowd.

I asked on this forum for advice on a good phone service, and received recs for Shaw, FIDO, and others. I looked into many and can heartily recommend CHAT-R. They charge about $25 per month for unlimited calls in the Vancouver area. FIDO, in comparison, charges about $35 for 250 minutes monthly. After 250 minutes the cost goes up a lot.

FIDO also pushes its travel plan; if you are going abroad, you can buy 17 minutes for $70!! Imagine, a whole 17 minutes!!

So, it's CHAT-R for me.
