Now we've sweetened the deal further still with new pricing on our Unbeatable and Solo in the City plans - including waiving System Access Fee and 911 charges - to underline we offer Canada's most affordable rates," said Wade Oosterman, president of Bell Mobility and Chief Brand Officer for Bell. "We're looking forward to competing with these enhanced Solo value plans and our new smartphones in the busy fourth-quarter holiday sales season, which accounts for more than a third of total wireless growth each year."
