is it me or fido has better retention plan than rogerS?

Basically, fido's retention is the same as rogers but without that stupid SAF.

Currently took another 3 year contract with rogers

$25/month + Saf + 911 + taxes = $37
-350 minutes
-6pm to 7am eve and weekend
-unlimited incoming call
-unlimited rogers to rogers
-caller id
-voicemail
-2500 text messages

fido is offering the same retention plan but without saf. thats the standard retention plan of fido right now. sighs*

I called rogers today about adding the 6 gb dataplan. The agent said that unless i commit to a 3 yr contract i cant add it. I ended up settling for 1 gb for 30$. Can anyone confirm that you must commit to a 3 yr term for the 6gb.

keep trying, and play stupid. dont let on that you know too much about these "retention plans" because majority of the public doesnt know about it.

just say one or more of these things.
- not happy with service
- not happy with price
- friends pay less for the same type of plan
- thinking of switching providers
- etc....

-unlimited incoming call
-unlimited rogers to rogers
-caller id
-voicemail
-2500 text messages

fido is offering the same retention plan but without saf. thats the standard retention plan of fido right now. sighs*
So I called in and asked abt the Fido Retention Plan

And this is the new plan:
$15/month + Saf + 911 + Taxes = $25.14

-250 minutes
-6pm to 7am eve and weekend
-unlimited incoming call
-unlimited network call
-caller id
-voicemail
-2500 text messages

then I asked about getting 6gb data. After a nice, smooth conversation, the CSR gave it to me for $15 instead of $30.

So $15(voicemail) + $15(data) + saf + 911 + taxes = $42. 1 year renewal contract.
-250 minutes
-6pm to 7am eve and weekend
-unlimited incoming call
-unlimited network call
-caller id
-voicemail
-2500 text messages
-6 gb data

I have to give up the 100 minutes to get network calling. Then my sibling called in too and this is her new contract without any renewal.

$20+ saf+ 911 + taxes = $33
-250 minutes
-6pm to 7am eve and weekend
-unlimited rogers to rogers
-caller id
-voicemail
-2500 text messages

I just saw this on howardforums.com... hopefully its useful to some of you guys while negotiating:


+Kardboard+: Sorry, internal Rogers codes and information is just that, internal. If HoFo doesn't take it down, that's their issue.
