my corporate plan is $54 + govt fee of 2.13 + tax:
"250 Business Advantage Plus"
250+50 bonus minutes
300 incoming extra minutes
6gb
unlimited text/caller id/voicemail

started last year, almost halfway done the 3 year contract.
Pretty good!

Wanted a note 4 so I called in to see what they can do.

$95, 6gb, unlimited canada wide calling, text, caller id, voicemail, etc etc. Note 4 will be $299 - $50 credit.

To keep my 6gb super plan at $67, Note 4 will be $499.

My buddy with Bell got the same $95 plan for $75 and they gave him note 4 for $149. He only been with Bell for 2 years whereas I've been with Rogers for 7 years.

The pissing part, Bell called my buddy and gave him the offer. He wasn't even looking to change his phone or plan and he was paying $70 for 1gb, 500 minutes, etc.

Fuck Rogers.

No, you have to verify your employment with the company.

Front line people have very little that they can offer to you if you are looking for a "deal". basically tell the first person you talk with that you are thinking of changing to someone else and would like to talk with retentions. They will try to assist you but still listen to what they offer you. If you are unhappy with it, then still insist on retentions. once you get to retentions, your mileage may vary but good luck.

How did you get the $74 plan, I called today and talked to retention and no luck.
I'm currently on a $60 6gb superplan... I wanted a hardware upgrade, and figured the $74 share everything plan that you posted would qualify, but no luck, they would not give it to me.

ive got a $75 6gb unltd call/text/ld plan on rogers 9 mos left on it. im taking over a friends plan. is it worthwhile to try and sell my plan? what is it worth?

Question for you guys:

Currently on a corporate plan via my previous employer
plan is:
500 min
call id/vm
6gb data
free after 6pm

all included for 60$ with tax

Question is, my contract is over, and i'm just doing month to month. I asked what my options are for different phones, and they said i can definitely do the hardware upgrade. However, they are asking me to re-do the verfication process for my previous employer.

Option 1:
Is it better for me to just keep paying month to month, and not get hardware upgrade to save my corporate plan?
o
or

Option 2:
Do hardware upgrade, and tell them i don't work there anymore, and try to renegotiate a better plan via retention? (been with Robbers for more than 12 years)

Nowhere on that thread has it been confirmed that grandfathered 6gb plans are eligible for this upgrade. I've been shot down more than once whenever inquiring about extending my contract.

My wife's company have a new corporate rep and she is only offering 20% off from the share plans. Which is a huge increase over the current plans we are getting. She said because there are so many different corporate plans Rogers is trying to shrink it and have a common plan. Is this true? Or is she trying to rack up her commission? I'm up for a hardware upgrade but don't want to loose my 6gb data and almost unlimited everything for their new shitty plan.
