I just called in five minutes ago as a 2-year regular customer on the old corporate plan. Here's the plan information I was given:
- 1171 plan is no longer available.
- $25 for 100 anytime minutes, free eve/weekends. No call display or voicemail. Evenings start at 8 PM.
- $30 for 100 anytime minutes, free eve/weekends. No call display or voicemail. Evenings start at 6 PM.
Just a heads up to those looking to negotiate. My next call in will also be polite. If it takes a third try, things are going to heat up.![]()

As mentioned a couple of pages ago (on Friday), plan 1171 is no longer available as of today...
The free 6 months of local calling is available - but today is the last day.
Congrats to those who got it..._______________

I got it a few days ago, but I hear a lot of people got better deals than I.
I spoke with a lady who said if I could provide a number of someone who got half or all off the 35$ charge off, or unlimited 3/6 months or free VM- they'd match it.
Is anyone willing to PM me to help a poor guy out?
Thanks.LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked mjdavila for this post.

My friend called today around 2pm. He still manage to get the following,
$25 per mth.
200mins anytime.
unlimited after 6pm weeknight and unlimited weekend.
Call display include.
1 year contact since he didn't get a phone upgrade.
He did not get the first 3 mths unlimited local calling.
As for myself,
I called on Friday to get the deal and they wavied the Shipping charge on the phone for me and include the first 3 mth unlimited local calling. I guess since my orignal plan was experied 2-3 mths ago.LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked mcmc for this post.

I was told by Rogers representative that not every account qualified for this
offer (criteria is not known) .She was actually surprised when I mentioned
"retention plan".I think you gotta be persistent.LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked budda for this post.

"Voicemail will be tough to get...

Nice job!"
thanks
however i dont talk much so i would not need the 6pm evening..
the guy told me that with taxes and all.. the total would be $31.xx
which isnt bad because my corporate plan before was getting around 37.xx total
also if u guys start asking about "rogers better deal bundles".. u will get discounts off of your bills if u have 2 or more products with rogers
personally i have rog cable, internet, and now wireless.. so i will be getting 15% off all of them.. which is pretty much no tax.. but its better than nothing..
**also one more thing.. the reason why i took the two year plan is because caller id will stay free for me for 2 years at least.. when the contract expires.. you will have the same plan BUT you will have to start paying for caller ID which is 5 bucks alone.. that is what my rep told me.. i dont think he was bs'ing either..Last edited by EveryLurker; Nov 1st, 2004 at 09:15 PM.

the bundles thing is ok...however u need to sign a two year contract min. that's the catch....that means...cable, internet and cell phone all on a 2 year contract. early cancellation charges apply. As well if ur already a vip member u get the 10% (which u already have) + the 15% rogers bundles therefore 25% off ur bill..
other thing, u don't have to have 2 things to get it....if u have cable and the cellular phone u can already get the deals..LOG IN TO THANK No one has yet thanked saw_mui for this post.
