Solo Mobile is a discontinued mobile virtual network operator in Canada started by Bell Mobility in 2000.

Its products and services were only sold in British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario and Quebec. The brand ceased advertising towards new customers since November 2011, and new activations were officially discontinued on May 17, 2012.
Solo Mobile began migrating its prepaid customers to Bell Mobility effective July 31, 2017.[2]
