I want to know if you get a virgin mobile phone in America can it get transfered to the Canadian network. So if i were to buy a wildcard could I use it in Canada but be under the Canadian network??
No. Sorry , but there are Virgin Mobiles all around the world. They all use different phone technologies. France, UK, South Africa and Australia Virgin Mobiles all use sim card phones called gsm. Gsm networks can use any sim card in any phone if it is unlocked first. India, USA and Canada use a non sim card phone technology called cdma. Each network can only use its own phones. VM Canada is owned by Bell. VM USA is owned by Sprint (as of yesterday's buyout announcement). Neither company will let phones from one side go to the other. So no VM Canada phones can run on VM USA either. If you want true phone choice and freedom , stick with gsm phones which come with sim cards. Anther bonus over cdma is that they can be used in any country in the world, cdma cannot.
Walgreen's is the main one that I know of. You can also purchase them online at virgin mobile, if you purchase a prepaid visa or master card it might make it allot easier for you. I know that I just seen one of the Switch back phones in Walgreens yesterday, But I live in Iowa. Best of Luck!
