    That Flow stay tuned argument looks promising.

    Have we stepped into the age of unlimited?
    I hope we have, it's a good move to offer unlimited to it's customers. For a YouTube and streaming junkie like me, this would be great.

    Dont read too much into that tweet,those people on their social media is working at Advantage call center. They are clueless into the inner workings of the company. Only head office can tell you anything promising.

    Yes I am very much aware of that. The only likely official mandate and plans comes directly from Flows Managers and executive. I only use these sort of post, to gauge the response from other users in the know. And from Flow themselves.

    Ericson is perhaps the only entity that have the correct timeline on the launch date as they are the ones who manage the mobile side and know the inner workings. Even at head office perhaps the persons in the LIME/FLOW Ericson office will be the only team that knows as upper management doesnt even know what the term LTE stands for.

    Uhhhhhh no.... I actually know the team that works in FLOW's Digital Media department. They're an extension of the Customer Care department. They're the ones that handle their twitter account, not customer care. Customer care handles the live chat feature. I assure you, the person manning the page today is well aware of the current rollout and the tarrifs soon to be put to market.

    Yes I suspect that is so. You are indeed correct. Flows Customer Care Agents, and other high ranking officials know nothing about the LTE launch. Some speculations arose. When Elaine Thompson was signed as Brand Ambassador and Speed Queen for Flow. That a new faster Network is in the works. The media has information on the build out of the LTE Network, but obviously they don't know the date for launch. I suspect as you say. Garry Sinclair and the ICT specialist and engineers at Flow and Ericsson know the full build out, roll out and launch of the LTE Network.

    Flow is keeping the launch day very tight and secreat, no hints or near timelines. I was told that we should expect surprises. I wonder if any new information will be presented in this Months Live Chat with Garry Sinclair?. We all just have to wait and see.

    I wonder if the person manning the social media pages is you LOL. You seem to have an intense knowledge of the inner workings at Flow, you did say that you know the team that works in Flows Media Department. So I take it, that is how you are aware of developments not yet known or suspected by the public. Right now if I could, I would pay you a million dollars just to get the launch date and Network specifications of Flows upcoming LTE Network.

    No lol I swear I don't do FLOW's social media. Don't want to give any names but they have a great team running their social media. I just happen to have a great relationship with them and the company in general. They've taken notice of a lot the analysis that I do from the outside-in. My knowledge of the company's moves are really just from observations. They usually corroborate my observations and I sometimes suggest different things they could look into. P.S. FLOW has gone wideband LTE (20x20 MHz of Band 4 LTE). That means their network can reach speeds of up to 150 Mbit/s and 50 Mbit/s im not sure whether they have done so on every tower but I have seen speed tests pushing past 100 Mbit/s on FLOW. Unlimited data is surely on the way. (I cannot yet confirm as my phone is not reporting the channel bandwidth :/)

    OK, lol. Flows LTE Network is going to be a beast. I am sure this will push the competitors to keep up or founder. T-Mobile is forcing the competition in the US for unlimited data and the competition, under pressure gave way to customers needs. And began to offer unlimited data. I am sure Flow will be doing something special for its existing and new customer to come. Flows LTE is essentially faster than the competition, even though the competition claims that its Network is capable of speeds up to 120Mbps. Does Flows wide band LTE mean that the Network is LTE-A, or does carrier aggregation have to be implemented to achieve LTE-A specifications?.

    I hope that we will see data plans similar to T-Mobile One and Verizon unlimited, Maybe I am just going overboard with it.
