Did you have a promo with them in the past? Not sure if it even makes a difference but he did say to me OK you've been with us for over 13 years and you've never had a promo so no problem.

Thanks to this thread, I just saved 20 bucks a month for a year from Bell. Gave them a call, didn't threaten them, I just said I'd like a break and mentioned this offer from Shaw. I didn't lose any of my subscriptions or anything. There was zero hesitation on their side. Thanks!

First of all, I want to thanks corzo_cone for this thread.

I just called Shaw today. At first, I told the lady from CSR that Telus has TV/Internet/Phone bundle and will you guys price match them. She told me that Telus force you to sign contract and will increase the price after 3 years. (Shaw increased the price 2-3 times a year without the contract ). And she told me she can transfer me to another department and I could talk to them.

So I talked to another guy about it, he put me on hold for few min and give me this offer

Shaw Digital Phone Basic:
- Local phone service
- Caller display

Shaw internet:
- High speed Internet

Shaw digital and hd tv:
- Classic & HD Plus
- 1 HD PVR
- Chinese Channel +$7
$84.95 + $7 + Tax = $99.95 per month

I told him I need few days to think about it. What do you guys think?? Should I call again and ask for Xtreme Internet or 1 more HD PVR?

If you're a new customer get the number of the rep from corzo and get the better bundle. If you are already a Shaw user then take the retentions deal they offered.

what is a retention deal?

I already have shaw high speed internet and basic digital cable. I called shaw today and they offer to transfer my home phone service from telus and give me a triple play bundle:
1) high speed extreme interent 1 yr
2) class cable channel 2-58 with free digital tuner ( non-HD) 1yr
3) home phone with caller ID 1yr

All for 79.99$


Should I take this deal? He doesnt want to give me HD plus or HD box for free rental, which Corzo the op has mention above.

Am I unlucky? and should I take this plan? (it is not a contract)

The plan Corzo mentioned is for new customers only so you can't compare the two.

A retentions offer is when you threaten to leave and they offer a promo to keep you on.
