I am at present looking to change my cell phone as my present doesen,t have coverage on the water of the south coast of Vancouver Island. Please advise if your cellular cover includes the south coast of Vancouver Island. This will include Pedder Bay Marina and to Sooke Area.
At present I have a Virgin account that does not work in that area. I also chatted to a Rodgers user who advised that he has no service in that area either, he also explained that when he does get a connection it comes through the American side of the Juan De Fuca Straight, and he is charged long distance rates even though he is on the Canadian side.
Thanks in Advance
Davie

Maybe if you could also contact Telus or Rodgers and complain they may be prepared to upgrade the service to this area as indicated by there coverage map.
