what were the details? I think my family's paying a lot more than that for hd/hispeed/phone. This seems like a good bundle

| and if you require wireless you have to pay more correct? i'm with telus right now, and we're moving. and i was looking to shaw cable...cause we need a change. so if it's cheaper we can just get the whole bundle

^ If you need wireless internet you dont have to pay more to Shaw. You just need to buy a wireless router, if you dont already have one (and wireless cards for desktops without them). It's not like Telus with the build in modem and router all in one.

^ Meh, same price as Telus, except you get regular internet (not lite) instead of hi-speed/extreme.
Telus you also get a PVR decoder with a 3yr contract. Not sure if Shaw has any equivalent.

you do not need to be a new shaw customer to get this deal. I am a Shaw internet/cable customer, but I told them that I am shopping around for deals and basically ask them what they can do to keep me. Then they offered me this deal...
The promotion gives you:
Shaw HD plus: Ch2-58, basic HD channels and HD Plus
Extreme internet
Shaw digital phone with free North America calling
Free PVR rental for 2 years
I called back TELUS to see if they can match this deal, they eventually pass me to L&R, but they cant even come close to what shaw is offering....I was a bit disappointed with TELUS, ALL the CSRs were pretty awful and they don't seem interested to match anything from shaw or keep me as a customer

ok i know what is going on now, this is a retentions deal,
u have to call in and pretend to cancel, so they will give u this deal to "try" and keep u as their customer. u really really need to know how to out talk them.
also, to those who think loyalty counts, no it doesnt work for shaw, no matter how long u've been with them, they wont give a fuck, u have to out smart them to get them to give u anything for free or deals, if u cant out talk them they wont give u anything.
i'd been with them since rogers day, so arnd 15+ years and they didnt offer me any deals when ever i talk to them.

we called in today, signed up for the tv HD, phone, extreme internet i believe..(my mom was dealing with it...so she didn't ask for details and/or didn't give me any details)
anyhow. the guy said, HD only has 13 channels. i was wondering if you guys know whether or not it comes with the digital channels as well?
i think once they come and install on saturday, i'll have to try and figure things out...and if they're not exactly what i want then i'll probably try adding stuff onto the tv plan. cause i want some espn!!!
BUT they did allow us to keep our phone number right now, except...it'll take 3-4 weeks to port!
