			Just finished with mine, was on hold for about 10 minutes. Managed to save $30 off of my base plan for the month plus got my account changed so I'm saving an additional $5/month without losing any services.

"noooo come back we'll give you ONE free month!"

			I just tried.  Didn't work for the following reasons according to the rep: 
-I have the cheapest voice plan, at $17.50 
-I have some sort of Rogers to Rogers discount, which IDK what they're referring to 
-I have a $10 discount    
Also, she says it only applies to people who have a cancellation order on their account, and that is when they would receieve this txt msg offer.  So essentially, it only applies to people who are dumping Rogers.  It doesn't apply to customers who have paid their bills on time, every month, for the last 10 years.   
edit: Oh, forgot to mention.  My rep asked for the number which the TXT came from.  Since no one mentioned it here, I just said I couldn't see it.  I'm sure that didn't help in getting me a discount.

			To save you guys from reading the whole thread and in case you get a douchey CSR, trying to give you a hard time. Here's the text:   
"Rogers svc msg: Please call 1800-407-2647. We value you and would appreciate another chance to give you a special offer of one month free credit. Some conditions apply."

		 |       rep told me that it's just a "merry christmas" gift for customers - nothing on the account will be altered.  
As for my flex data plan - I will be credited back how ever many MB of data i use.

			I didn't received the text but decided to call just to see if I could get the promotion. It didn't work they need me to verify the text from a rogers store and call them again from there.  Worth a shot...  Posted via RS Mobile     |

			My rep asked for the 5 digit number that the text came from, at that point I was like, I don't know, my friend just told me about this. He's like "you know what, since you're honest, I'll give it to you"
