And in less than ONE year, his company creates another brand to compete DIRECTLY with Wind and Mobilicity. Make no mistake, Robbers isn't trying to take away marketshare from the new players, they're trying to bully their way to run them out of business before they can get big.
Chat-r's plans are almost identical to the Wind/Mobilicity. Chat-r just so happens to be available in the exact same handful of cities that Wind/Mobilicity currently offer despite using a Rogers network which blankets more than that. I'm disappointed that no Canadian governing body has stepped in and slapped them on the wrist.
