Where did you find 1600 in Vancouver? All stores I've asked had only Nokia 5200 (and one that did have 1600 didn't know about the promo).

May I ask which stores have you asked that don't have 1600s? I asked the one on Kingsway near metrotown and they simply have none left, even 5200s.

I bought the last 1600 they had at the 7/11 at Robson & Seymour (in downtown Vancouver) a couple of days ago for the ($74 - $25) + $25 airtime deal (works out to be $82 something).

One thing I've learned is that I spent half my minutes so far calling people and getting their voice mail to pick up and getting dinged for 20 cents immediately. You have to watch that, unless you actually want to leave a voice mail.

7-11 on Thurlow and Alberni I think (close to Robson) had Nokia 5200. Also the store on Denman St.

Store on Burrard, across St. Paul hospital had Nokia 1600, but they didn't know about the promo. Also, box looked like they kept it outside :D.

The clerk in Kingsonton 7-11 told me no promotion at all!!


There is a store close to Market mall, they have three models of phone. I bought two Nokia 1600 there.


I can not find the store near market mall on google map, could you please tell me more details about the location?

I would assume sydfyan means the 7-11 @ Varsity (4615 VALIANT DR NW). Just up from Market Mall, along Shaganappi, right across from the Petro-Canada gas station.

In Vancouver, 7-11 at Oak and Broadway still carries 1600 if anyone interested.
I bought one a few days ago and had to come back today because - silly me - forgot to buy airtime. 😛
There are 4 in the store front and more in the back, the clerk said today.
Good luck!

Thanks to all the info on this website, I'm now a happy cellphone owner. 🙂

Squamish, BC. If you're heading up the sea to sky the 7-11/Esso near McDonalds has the 1600, 2610 and 5200 in stock.

Phone numbers might be squamish area code (still 604) call speakout to check.

I bought a 1600 with the $25 off with $25 airtime.

i know its halfway through the month already, but i thought it might still be nice to provide a bit of simplified info on the june phone deal.

i work at a location in victoria, when someone wants to buy a phone, say the nokia 1600, it works like this:

>I scan the UPC for the phone (total after tax in BC is $82-something, so lets say $83).
>I print out the UPC for the air time and add it to the phone total (say $25 in time). the total is now $108.
>I push the 'speakout promo' button, which takes $25 off of my total. the final sale comes to a total of $83.

7-eleven advertises it as getting $25 off the phone, but you could see it as either this, or as just paying for the phone and also getting free air time. neat-o?!

I picked up a Nokia 1600 for $50 ($75 - $25) at the Broadway & Oak 7-Eleven in Vancouver. It came out to around $58 after taxes. The cashier didn't make me buy any additional airtime for the discount, but I'll have to do that eventually since the phone only comes loaded with $5 airtime.

Well, my local 7-11 insisted that there is no such thing as a June $25 off promo. So I bought the phone anyway, with zero promotion. Sucks.

Not much I can do about it now... who can I complain to? No one..

If I were you I'd push to get a complete refund + keep what you've got. Most companies follow the bar code policy, which is if something is scanned for the wrong price you get your entire purchase for free (to promote bar code use w/o fear of being scammed). Try calling SpeakOut c/s and ask for 7-11's head office info for Canada customer relations...

The policy is actually "free up to $10." Nevertheless, it's worth complaining to 7-11 management. If you can't find anyone in Canada, try a polite letter to:
Joseph DePinto
President and Chief Executive Officer
7-Eleven, Inc.
2711 North Haskell Avenue
Dallas, TX 75204

(or call HQ and ask for his fax number/e-mail address)
