I think this is a good deal - who did you call to get it? please PM meThe Master wrote: ↑hello all!
I am a new customer looking to get Rogers and here is what they have offered me
For 144 dollars per month taxes in would get me the following on a one year contract:
100MB download/10 upload
unlimited internet
The Digital VIP cable package
HBO and TMN movie channels( 7 channels roughly)
One HD receiver and apparently I would get a second wireless box for my second TV so I would still be able to record on a second TV.
NHL gamecenter for streaming and NHL center Ice.
Is this is a good deal???

Anyone?rvs007 wrote: ↑Has anyone recently (in the last couple of days) successfully gotten the $30 off cable & $25 off internet promo? I'm in communication with someone from the Office of the President at Rogers in response to a complaint I submitted last week and the guy is telling me he cannot find that promotion anymore. I'm wondering if anyone has gotten it recently.

Is 1 month ago recent?
FYI, 1 month ago it too wasn't available, only the $25 off cable and $20 off internet. However, the rep provided a $10 credit for 12 of the 24 months.
So not exactly what you got, but there's no reason they can't accommodate your deal to make it equal in terms of savings (e.g., $10/m credit for the full 24 months) - if it was promised to you.

The agent from the OOP said he can't find the $30/$25 off deal and he said he has access to all deal even the retention ones. So it possibly could have expired recently. That's why I wanted to find out if anyone here has recently (in the last few days) gotten that deal.onlineharvest wrote: ↑Is 1 month ago recent?

He did offer me $200 as a "signing bonus", but what he offered me was $20/mo. more than what I'm paying now (even though the new plan would have the 100u internet, plus all the extras that comes with it like Shomi, Gamecentre, etc.), but the $200 credit wouldn't cover the increase for the 24 months I'll need to commit to. That's not enough for me to give up my W35+unlimited internet plan. I thought I'd have an easier time to negotiate a better bundle if I offer to give up the 8 year price protection on the internet plan. Maybe I'll contact them back if they offer the $30/$25 promo again.

Not only are they generally stingy, I wouldn't be surprised if the W35 is the sticking point. I remember the latter period I had it, they would ALWAYS mention that package as a reason they can't do better. And seeing as people are cutting both TV and Phone cords, and the increasing importance of internet for these services, they'd like to get you out of a package with price protection until 2021!rvs007 wrote: ↑The agent from the OOP said he can't find the $30/$25 off deal and he said he has access to all deal even the retention ones.

I am still rather curious if the others here who are receiving offers for 140$ a month tax in are receiving a promotional price. I am paying $195 tax in for VIP Cable (with a single PVR provided and I am paying for the second HD Receiver), 100u Internet, and I am on some older plan for the home phone that only gives me 500 minutes of North American calling. If others are getting 140$ tax in, I would definitely be calling to negotiate.

I think everything is a promotional price. There model is based on if customer does not ask for a better price then charge whatever the market will bear within reason. I pay $122 all in for VIP TV, internet and the basic homephone. They are actually reducing discounts and standardizing their pricing which does not bode well for the future. Still cheaper than bell though, this is what you get with no competition and a regulated market.

Called today and they best they could do for my ignite 100 is $20 off, making it $76.89 a month after tax....thats brutal.
I aim to be inclusive and considerate of others in my posts. If I fall short of that mark, feel free to let me know in good faith, and where appropriate, I'll edit my posts.

Anyone have info they can share with just cable with rogers? No bundle... I have current "plus" package and after tax and pvr they've been charging me $90 they cut my HBO and now just "plus" package , I called Monday and cancelled because I feel that Im getting screwed. They tried calling back today but I was at work and told them I couldn't talk so they said they will call me tonight.
I've been trying to see what I could do whether its pay less or better package at that price if I was to stay, but after searching through all I can find is talk about bundles. Any advice would be appreciated.
cheers

But that's the thing, I was quite upfront with the guy that I was willing to drop my W35 internet and go with a 2 year ignite 100u plan if I could get $25 off internet, and $30 off cable. But even so he said he couldn't find the $30/$25 off deal on the system. So perhaps it's true that the promo is no longer available (unless someone else here can confirm otherwise). My cable & home phone discounts won't expire until February 2016. So I do have some time to wait to see if better offers come along. I was just hoping that I can make the switch now so I can start benefiting from the 10Mbps upload speeds.onlineharvest wrote: ↑Not only are they generally stingy, I wouldn't be surprised if the W35 is the sticking point.

I was on a 6-month free promotion for all top-end services, and had to negotiate a deal since it's now ending.
I ended up taking 100u + basic cable + free PVRs for $119 tax-in with a 2-year commitment. It's crap, but nothing better was being offered...

When I called in over the weekend the guy offered me 73.xx all in for 100u. I thought he was crazy and was hoping for my $48.01 renewal, he said that's long gone..lol..guess he was right. man i cant justify paying that kinda coin for internet but its fastttt and very helpful in large household. I thought some people were able to get $59.99 for 100u? or was that for students or something?

So they want me to sign two year commitment for $135 tax-in which includes:
- Homephone with 6 features. Not that I need it but I do need a land line
- Internet 100
- Basic cable with HD receiver
- Movie Network promotion for 6 months after which it is $16/- but I'll take it off account.
The alternative would have been bell but they don't offer more the speeds here. I've tried Teksavvy before and they were driving me insane. I'm currently paying $123 (tax-in) for basic cable, home phone and 300GB 30MBps download (previous retention) so I'm thinking of taking the new offered.
Thoughts?

Arn't these guys being sneaky with the 2 year commitments?..I thought the CRTC wants the pick and choose options by next year so I think these guys want to lock people up as much as possible..lol. Why cant they provide month-to-month like they have been doing?itrocks4u wrote: ↑So they want me to sign two year commitment for $135 tax-in which includes:

From what was explained to me, the 2 year commitment is only for the internet part. There are no contracts for the cable & home phone. However, the $19.99 home phone package w/ 6 features is only available if you bundle with cable & internet.
As for the $59.99 for 100u internet, I've been trying to find out if it's still available. It sounds like that recently expired.
