SaskTel has announced plans to waive data overage charges from April 12 - June 30, 2021, to further assist customers with online learning or those still working remotely as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. There will be no data overage charges (domestic data) for business or consumer customers, on SaskTel's postpaid Wireless plans ), noSTRINGSPrepaid wireless plans or SaskTel fusion Internet plans.
SaskTel's internet plans are already unlimited, so customers can use as much data as needed during this time. With customers not having to be concerned about how their data is being used, downloads, browsing and streaming can be done to keep the whole family connected.
In Monday’s news release, the Government of Saskatchewan said this announcement comes as Saskatchewan residents are already enjoying the lowest utility expenses in all of Canada. Saskatchewan families are saving on average more than $5,200 in utility expenses when compared to a family unit in Alberta.
In addition to this waiver of data overage charges from SaskTel, SGI customers will be receiving rebate cheques in May for approximately $285 per vehicle. Furthermore, SaskPower customers are currently enjoying a 10 per cent bill reduction which will equate to an average $131 per customer this year.
