What is Accessibility?

Lucky Mobile provides options to customers who self-identify with a disability that prevents them from completing daily tasks easily to help them get the most out of their mobile service. These include visual, hearing, cognitive, speech or physical impairments.

Accessibility Plan

Created in consultation with persons with disabilities, our Accessibility Plan outlines the actions we plan to take to identify, remove, and prevent barriers to accessibility.

Services Available

Text with 9-1-1

When you dial 9-1-1, the 9-1-1 call centre is notified that they need to communicate with you using text (SMS) instead of voice. The 9-1-1 call centre will then initiate text messaging with you to address the emergency.

Call Display

With Call Display, the name of the person calling appears on your phone screen, so you can see who’s calling (and decide if you want to answer or not).

Directory Assistance

If you're visually impaired, you can contact 411 and request to be connected to the number you're looking for. A $2.49 connection fee will be deducted directly from your balance.

Extended trial period

Lucky Mobile customers with self-identified accessibility needs are eligible for an extended trial period when purchasing wireless service.

Message Relay Services (MRS)

Lucky Mobile currently offers two types of message relay services (MRS): Teletypewriter (TTY) relay service and Internet protocol (IP) relay service.

Message relay services enable people with a hearing or speech disability to make and receive telephone calls via text with the assistance of a relay operator. In an MRS call, the relay operator communicates with the person who has a hearing or speech disability via text and with the other party via voice.

Teletypewriter (TTY) Relay Service

The Lucky Mobile TTY Relay service supports communication by phone between hearing people and people who are deaf, deafened, hard of hearing, or those with speech disabilities. Professionally trained operators act as intermediaries to facilitate the call. Lucky Mobile Relay operators are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Calls placed through the Lucky Mobile Relay service are also entirely confidential. Lucky Mobile Relay operators follow a strict code of ethics. No record of conversation content is retained.

IP Relay Service

IP Relay enables deaf, hard of hearing or speech-impaired (DHHSI) individuals to place and receive text-based relay calls from their personal computer (PC) and/or mobile device. An IP Relay operator will connect an IP Relay caller to a voice party. All calls are strictly confidential. All you need to use Lucky Mobile IP Relay is a PC and/or mobile device with an Internet connection.

Video Relay Service

Video Relay Service (VRS) is a free service provided by Canada VRS that helps people who use sign language to communicate with voice telephone users. VRS callers are connected by video with a sign language interpreter who provides real time interpretation for telephone calls.

Lucky Mobile customers using VRS on a mobile network within Canada will not be charged for data associated with using VRS.

Important: Please be aware that there are 9-1-1 limitations associated with VRS. Visit the Canada VRS website for important information about these limitations and how VRS works with 9-1-1.

To register and learn more about VRS, visit Canada VRS’ website.
