ignite doesn't work with the nextbox pvr's or digital boxes - they gave me $50 for nextbox 3 pvr that was owned ( hdd was really failing for months :) and $25 for each nextbox digital box that was owned as trade in so will get that credit in couple weeks ( had 4 boxes total so only 1 was on rent )

In any event, there's a plentiful supply of lightly used ones sold (hopefully) by people who switched to Ignite TV. Make sure to check serial numbers with Rogers before buying, etc., obviously. I bought two 4K boxes in November - I think my 10455 PVR cost me like $125?

They’ve been theoretically eliminating it for years - their talk is cheap.

Sure, but that doesn't mean they want to make people angry by selling them boxes that may turn into paperweights... who knows when. Especially, too, when I'm sure there's a plentiful supply of used boxes and of returned rental boxes from the migration to Ignite TV.

My suspicion, FWIW, is that the legacy platform is going to be around a while - for one thing, they're still selling it for business accounts and for the skinny basic service. For another, I'm sure they have a reasonable number of TV-only clients, both in residential and especially in business, and I can't imagine "the cable company" no longer offering a TV-only service, just like I can't imagine Bell not providing a straight analog phone line.

This is Rogers we’re talking about.

How long has the delay before getting the credits, for those of you who returned owned PVR and TV box units? The sales guy said it could be up to three months, but that seems like an awfully long delay.

I bought a bunch in at the end of December.

If you are technical enough you can have a technical talk with Rogers support. Do some diagnostics (like pinging your gateway at different times of the day etc.) and present it to them. Then you won't have to deal with the "bad modem" crap.
What makes you think I need your advice on this? I really don’t need it.
I had accomplished my own piece of root cause investigation, presented it to Rogers, they did not fix it, so I left.
That’s it.

The $50 offer you got, was it for ignite gigabit with gateway modem? I was offered $69+tax which is $50 off regular price.

I canceled the cancelation and I ended up moving, once I called to let them know I’m moving and would like to cancel they offered me $45 for 500mb so I took it. I’m in Vaughan. A few reps from Rogers called me for rfd but only offered be $55-60/month
do you have any other services with them or only internet?

Thanks, I understand.
I've been with Rogers 2 years now and I have the gigabit plan and old Hitron modem. When I asked about switching to latest Gateway modem, CSR advised me that I need to get "ignite" plan, which then offered me a $50 loyalty discount ($69 +tax)
If you guys are getting $50 offer for the ignite gigabit I can push for a lower price. that's all I'm trying to figure out.

If there are any M2M Rogers reps, I would be interested Smiling Face With Open Mouth
If this works, I'm in need of help in M2M as well.

Thanks!
