can retentions waive the "system access fee ($6.95)" from your bill ? does Fido or telus still charge this fee?

so I called retentions and got unlimited everything with 500mb for $60 plus tax, did a hardware upgrade for a galaxy s4 for $99.99 after the $50 rebate (2 years contract)
They were not willing to go any lower or match fido's plan for unlimited everything and 2GB of data for $60 plus tax

Dont think Rogers will match the old plan of Fido where unlimited everything with 2gb data for $60, as many customers have pursued that, and its been such awhile ago.
I got mine when another rs member mentioned about that free 1gb if your plan is $70+, hence unlimited everything w/ 2gb for $70.
But now Fido has the unlimited everything w/ 2gb for $65, so you can still try to negotiate $5 difference or more if they allow.
Sometimes I wanna leave robbers and go fido... Anyone know how reception is, strong or dead areas?? My friend tells me victoria/59th has dead zones...
Concern for me as my phone is needed for work...

Blame it on people bitching and not understanding the benefit of 3 years contracts. I mean shit, how often are people fucking switching from company to company period let alone within a 3 year contract.

Posted via RS Mobile | Rogers and Fido use the same towers since they are the same company, anywhere there is dead zone for Rogers will be dead zone for Fido.
I actually switched from Rogers to Fido last year and I have noticed identical signal strength everywhere I go. I'm glad I did because Rogers plans = ass rape now.

When the 3 year plan was cancel Telus, Bell and Rogers all raise the price for their plan as well as the up front cost for a phone. So Basically they are making 40% or more on thier new 2year plans Vs their old plans. Is just a money grab.
I love to see the CRTC take revenge on the big 3 like not accepting their bid on the new 700Mhz specturm.

Posted via RS Mobile | They DO have a $60 unlimited talk/text + 2GB plan right now. Its in the Standard Plans section which means you can only get the shitty phones.

currently i have the a grandfather plan. basically its the cold city fido plan. with 6gb, call display, voice mail, n 2500 txt for 60 plus tax. its time for renewal... the only downside with fido is that they dont have the phone that i want which is the note3. with that in mind.. is it worth switching over to rogers or telus for the note3 n asking retention to see if they could somewhat match my plan?
or should i just keep my plan n see if they are willing to upgrade the data to lte? n just get a iphone 5s?

Also it might be cheaper to keep your currently plan sign 2 year with Fido for the iphone5s and thens ell it or trade for the note3.

so i called rogers retentions and they said i can have a plan for LTE if i switch to nexus 5 or s4, $75 or $85 (i forgot, probably $85) for 3gb of LTE with everything else included.....
is it worth it? Any other company have cheaper LTE plans that i can bargain for? My 3 year contract ends in June and i tried bargaining saying I am almost done my contract and been a 3 year loyal customer etc.... but no budge

just got new plan today from business retentions. $75 for unltd Canada and US calling, plus unlimited sms mms globally, cid etc and 6GB. Took no negotiations at all, Rep just offered it to me and I took it. I had a 6GB plan and a voice plan with lots of expiring bill credits before.
I was worried that retentions weren't giving out good plans anymore so good to know is still possible
