I ditched my Rogers mobile 2 years ago because I hated to pay Rogers $30/month for nothing. Payphones were a real deal at 25 cents/call, given I would make 3 or 4 calls a month. 50 cents is an inconvenience but still a deal given that I can call around the 416 and major chunks or the 905 ( plus 647 and 289) for zero cents a minute. Try doing that in London or Tokyo.

Canada's mobile companies have convinced younger users to pay huge amounts every month for calls, ring tones, text and the like. They are being ripped off though.

Months have gone by since they've upped the price
on pay phones. Every time I need to make a call, I
want to shoot myself in the vagina. It's too much.

LOL. 

Not enough people are using pay phones, so their next logical step is to INCREASE prices instead? Does not computer!!!! 

If anything, this will just turn people away from them even more now. 

Even the staunchiest of cell haters like myself might be inclined to even get a Virgin pre-paid set up now.

okay I am in Toronto too, and I have a cellphone and I think it is ridiculous! Cellphone users still  use the payphone, I know at my campus (UofT) the payphones are more in use than the cellphones. I think we should contact bell and petition the increase! ]]>

In Japan, it's roughly the same as what mars said about England.  Public phones only take 10 yen and 100 yen coins (roughly 10 cents and one dollar CAD respectively).  10 yen will barely get you 20 seconds, while 100 yen gets you a 3 minute conversation.  Cell phones and VoIP have taken over, which caused public phones to become mostly obsolete.  Finding one can be a pain when you're not sure where you are.]]>

Jeremy: You might want to try a prepaid card. Those make most payphones fairly painless. ]]>

Wow, Bell really jumped on this opportunity. I've never owned a cell phone and rely on pay phones particularly when traveling downtown. Looks like I'll have to carry a pocket full of quarters where ever I go now.]]>
