Freedom Mobile’s new LTE network is rolling out in stages, with all current 3G coverage areas scheduled to be upgraded to LTE by Fall 2017. Check the map below to see when LTE is available in your area.
The Freedom Mobile coverage area is an approximation of the actual wireless service available and is subject to change as more towers are built. The level of voice and data service while within Freedom Mobile’s HOME network coverage area may vary due to terrain, foliage, technical capacity, or weather conditions. Freedom Mobile cannot guarantee service availability.
HOME LTE Network
Access our HOME network (3G / HSPA+) with your Freedom Mobile plan. Plus, feel the freedom of faster downloads and an enhanced experience with your LTE-ready phone and plan when connected to our LTE network. Our newest LTE coverage areas include: Cambridge, Guelph, Kitchener-Waterloo, Niagara Falls, St. Catharines and more.
When you’re connected to LTE, most phones will show an LTE icon near your signal bars at the top of the screen. Some phones, however, will show a 4G icon for both LTE and non-LTE connections.
HOME (LTE Summer-Fall 2017)
LTE coverage for Ottawa is scheduled for Summer 2017 with the remainder of our coverage map targeted for completion Fall 2017.
Variable (HOME/Away) 3G/HSPA+
In these areas your phone could be using either our HOME network or a Partner (Away) network. Your phone will display either HOME or Away so you can always tell if you are able to use your plan’s features or be subject to roaming pay-per-use rates of 15¢/min, 5¢/text, and 5¢/MB.
Away (Partner networks) 3G/HSPA+/LTE (select locations)
Our HOME network and Away (Partner) networks cover more than 98% of the Canadian and American populations. If you find yourself outside of our HOME network, our low flat pay-per-use roaming rates of 15¢/min, 5¢/text, and 5¢/MB are the same across Canada or the U.S. whether you’re in Saint John or San Diego. When you’re traveling and on a Partner network, your phone may display Away or our Partner network name. LTE roaming is now available in the U.S. and on select partner networks in Canada for customers on an LTE-ready plan.
