We’re giving away a chatr wireless Samsung Gravity phone with three months of unlimited talk and text service. Worth $280! All you have to do is tell me why you deserve to win! Contest closes July 29th at noon MT. The winner will be posted right here on my blog. Good luck!

  3. Dawn Smith Says:

  4. Shawna Lamarsh Says:

    I could really use a new phone my phone is malfunctioning all the time and I still have 1year on my contract so the husband says no to a new phone but if it was free how could he argue. And the phone looks cool.

  5. Tamara Smith Says:

    Good Morning… After an untold amount of both dropped calls and dying batteries…not to mention bad reception… I had just decided this week that I will be putting Fido in the doghouse and purchasing a new phone and going with a new carrier.

    Regards Tamara

    Currently have no cell . Gosh this would be great.

  9. Don Macphee Says:

    I would like to win this phone as my cell has alot of problems with it so a new phone would be just right thanks Mike. Don

  10. James G Connolly Says:

    I have a 15 year old nephew who is a text-aholic. My current cell phone is just a standard flip phone with the normal phone keypad. It takes me way too long to respond to texts using this keypad. It would be very benificial to be able to use a QWERTY keypad for texting my text-aholic nephew and others.

  11. Lynne Beattie Says:

    Hi Mike,
    I really think I deserve this so that I could chat with my daughter and grandson who live in Calgary and I am in Quebec. So if my daughter could have the phone then she could use it to call us. We are in Quebec but we awake to watch your show every morning.
    we really enjoy it and it makes us feel closer to our family.
    Thanks for considering us .Have a great day.
    Lynne

  12. Jayne Says:

    Nice to see a little competition.

  13. Pat Harrison Says:

    I deserve to win this phone as I desperately need a new phone. My phone is so old that when it’s charged it, the charge last just 2 or 3 days. My sons are so embarrassed when they see me talking on my phone in public.
    Please let me win this phone! :)

  14. brandy mackay Says:

    Good morning Mike. Thank you for the opportunity to win a phone.

  15. Ann Burkert Says:

    I have been told by many people that I need to “get with the times!” I have been told my current cell phone would look great in a museum and should be donated, but you know it’s hard to part with something so reliable. Although my cell phone is over 10 years old, it still works!! It’s definitely a conversation piece but I really do need a new phone to “get with the times”!

    Have a great long weekend!!

  16. Scott Eshpeter Says:

    I would like to win this Phone, so I can give it to my Girlfriend who is attending College in ThunderBay, Ont, she needs a new Phone so we can stay in contact by text when we can’t talk to each other, and I think it would be a great gift for her since we can’t really afford a new Phone since I am also paying for her Schooling.

    Thank you for your time and I hope you pick me for this great gift

  17. Terry Kozlyk Says:

    I really need to keep in touch 24/7 as I am between jobs.

    I was “dropped” so I can’t have anymore things around me “being dropped”.

    I never had a cell phone so I am a newbie. Chatter is new to Canada and also a newbie.

    This would be a perfect “marriage” between the 2 of us!

  18. Cristina Says:

    I would like to win because I have been cell free for 1 year and it is time to get back to civilization and get a cool and reliable one!!!

  19. Shannon Culham Says:

    would appreciate the opportunity to win this great prize. Living near the Crowsnest Pass I experience multiple dropped calls and the Chatr wireless would mean I could actually throw my phone over the Lundbreck Falls! What a wonderful day that would be.
    Thanks for giving me a wee bit of hope,
    Shannon

  20. Jennifer Kennedy Says:

    I deserve to win this phone because:

    My daughter turns 12 in August and her DREAM is to have a cell phone of her very own. She has been asking for one for soooooo long. It would be so wonderful to tell her that her dream has come true and she’s won. Also, it would be a pretty cool way to start off Grade 7. Also, I hope to start back to work when school start up and it would be nice to know she would have a phone.

    Thanks,

    Jen

  21. Lynne Says:

    I need a new phone!!!! I must admit that I am not very “tech” savy, I bought what I thought was an Iphone on ebay, it is NOT an Iphone. Live and learn I guess and never buy a cell phone on ebay!!!!! (ha ha)

    Thanks,
    Lynne

  22. cynthia Says:

    Can you believe that we don’t own a cellphone but are willing to enter the 21st Century!! We would welcome this new phone into our lives with open arms(ears)…..

    :)

  23. Sharon Newton Says:

    I am desperately in need of a new phone, and it would be great to have something new on the market instead of my usual something very, very old!

  24. Ann Watson Dundas Says:

    I would love to win this phone to give to my very independent and on the go 74 year old mother. She travels(by car) extensively around the province and beyond by herself and without a cellphone. She thinks it would make sense to have one but can’t seem to justify the expense or “make the technologic leap”. This phone would be great to help her be safer and more reachable, she really likes other technology so I’m sur she could make the transition….thanks!

  25. Mohamed Says:

    I am sick of paying bills that are higher every month, and I’d love to win a phone with flat rate on a reliable network!

  26. shirley meguinis Says:

    I need a phone because without it i am all alone.I am 50 yrs old and still using 2 campbells soup cans with copper coil to phone.My current carrier “campbells” has a lousy plan and a poor connection.They keep on promising to upgrade their cans but alas I still wait for an opportunity to have a keyboard on my can!!However while I wait I would sure like to try out your phone and service,who knows maybe I’ll trade in my cans and go for the gusto.

  27. Karen P. Says:

    I can really relate to cell phone rage … not only does my phone drop calls, but it also sends a loud annoying buzz to people that are calling me, prior to me answering it! Thereforek all my friends are also subject to my less than adequate phone and are pleading with me to get a new phone.

  28. Nels Jensen Says:

    The new Chatr looks like a good program.

    Thanks Nels

  29. Wendy Says:

    I’m locked into my plan, and I loose calls all the time…a new begining would be great:) thanks!

  30. Daniel Leung Says:

    Hi Mike:
    A Chatr would be great.
    I have never had a cell phone before in my life…………….and would like to have it for safety when camping, hiking or travelling for work.
    Even my over 80 year old parents have a cell-phone. I hate admitting that those 2 seniors are more “in the loop” than me ! It is embarrassing being teased by the elderly , even if they are family.

    Thanks for a chance at keeping up with the seniors of today.
    Dan

  31. Gerald Thompson Says:

    I have a teenage daughter that has been extremely persistent for some time now, to have “what all her friends already have, two points to consider: initial cost and of course if the phone were to be or “mishandled” or “lost”, I think that a free trial for my teenager would be a great reason to let her begin her CHATR ing. But after what I heard this morning, insist on her cleaning her phone on a regular basis.

  32. Dawn Fretts Says:

    Why do I deserve to win? Cuz I am so untechnical, and you would probably find it hard to believe that there are actually people that have no idea what texting even is!! Perhaps I could have you tutor me in the mysterious ways of texting, or not. Twitter? Isn’t that what birds do too early in the morning?
    Anyway, everyone laughs at me as I am so not up on all of the latest and greatest gadgets, and I need one of these to join the real (current) world!

    Thanks!

  33. Mary Ann Wong Says:

    My discontinued Motorola Razor phone won’t retain its charge. I’m frustrated that I can’t talk for more than 10 minutes before the low battery beeping starts. Would love the new Chatr wireless. You guys are great!

  34. MARGO BEAVEN Says:

    I’VE NEVER EXPERIENCED CELL PHONE RAGE BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE A CELL PHONE. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A NEW CHATR.

  35. James Narfason Says:

    I would like to win this for my son – he is going into Junior High in the fall and is no longer able to take the bus to school and will have to walk. we have been contemplating a cellphone for him for safety reasons, but have been putting it off due to cost. He has been babysitting his younger brother this summer trying to earn money for a cellphone – so this would be a great gift for him! thanks.

  36. Connie T. Says:

    Hi Mike
    I would love to win this new cell phone. Hopefully it will work better than mine when I am out of province visiting family.
    Thanks and have a great long weekend.
    Take Care :)

  37. Heather Tuff Says:

    I would love this for my 12 yr old daughter. She uses my phone and ALWAYs uses all my texting minutes. She’s starting JR High in September and I would love for her to have her own phone! She’s too young to work, and I can’t afford another phone right now.

  38. Martin Moon Says:

    I would like to win to see if there is a new provider that can live up to promises. My present provider along with the others I have tried never have lived up to what they have said. I say it is time to bring on a new provider that has fewer dropped calls.

  39. paul Grant Says:

    My daughter is a phone nut, always on the cell, always looking for the latest new one . This one would the ultimate .

  40. Carrie C. Says:

    Well Mike, my reason kinda fits with the “disgusting” cell phone news you shared with us this morning. It happened to me two days ago and I am still waiting for it to get completely dry before I try to power it up (I hear that is what to do with electronic devices that have accidently tumbled into the “throne.”) The bigger question for me is whether I want it to work for me after it has thoroughly dried up inside & out. The question you are probably thinking is before or after……..does it really matter?? Everything happens for a reason.

  41. Lorraine Says:

    I’m not getting any younger, my Granddaughters would get a hoot out of texts from Granny & my children would be ecstatic if I got a cell phone. They’ve been bugging for a long time now, I would make a deal with them when I experience first hand the convenience and peace of mind it gives me and my family. Their threatening its either wireless phone or the “life alert” bracelet. I think the ChatR box would be more hip.

  42. Bailey Newton-Fisher Says:

    I’d like this cell phone for my brother because he’s going into High School and last year someone smashed his cell phone into two pieces and I’m no longer able to reach him EVER. He longboards just about everywhere and so there’s no way to get to talk to him without calling one of his friends! He would love it just as much as I would.

  43. Glen Says:

    I would love to win this for my tweener daughter. She’s been asking for her first cell phone for months so that she can text her school friends over the summer. This would be perfect.

  44. Raj Says:

    Hi! My trusty phone — an Audiovox SMT 5600 — is over five years old. (I purchased it from Rogers, by the way!!) I desperately need to win, because I need a new phone so that my friends and family stop making fun of me and my “ancient” (by today’s standards) phone.

  45. sheryl Says:

    I would love to win this for myself, it would be nice to know how the reception is with the phone just south west of calgary. My phone now has very poor reception where I live.

  46. Ian Dundas Says:

    How do I spell cellphone rage? B-L-A-C-K-B-E-R-R-Y!!! What do I need? No dropped calls, better coverage. Coverage in the car or in the bar, the office, the elevator, the bathroom or bedroom, the pathways, the roller coaster, on my bike or horse ( of course) or pogo stick ( hope I don’t fall) I want it all! Would I could I have coverage in a box or with a fox or in my house or with a mouse! So I don’t become mad as a hatter, please let me win the Chattr. Please help me Mike I like!

  47. Tyler Says:

    What can I say, blah blah blah blah blah………………………………MINE SUCKS!!

  48. Gary Brand Says:

    2 teenagers and a wife that cannot text on a phone keypad.HELP!!!! Need I say more. Thanks Gary
