I tried to access the site on my PC and I got redirected but on my phone it's fine.

I just checked the link above.. it's fine. no redirects

I think you probably got some adware.. run your antivirus.. AVG.. Microsoft Security Essentials.. Norton etc to try to remove it..

oh shit i didnt notice a "show more orders" at the bottom. half of my phones are preparing for shipment, the other half are processing, almost all my phones went through. crazy.

HansonBoy 09-16-2012 07:13 AM

I sure hope the release is smooth, quantity plentiful and that everyone that wants one can easily get one in the fastest time.

I basically have the same but quite a bit more "overage" minutes, unlimited texting, and unlimited picture messaging

My bill is $64 taxes in every month, I think I could probably shave off a couple bucks here and there but I don't feel like spending another 2 hours on the phone with retentions

fucking Rogers

so i've been chatting with their retentions dept for 2 days and I finally get through the web site but there's all these hidden fees each time I get further in the process.

so this is what its going to cost me for an early upgrade:
32gb $329 (with a $50 credit back after)
early upgrade fee $80 (i normally get this waived since i upgrade about every 1.5 years but they said they cant since its an iphone5)
$35 activation fee
$40 reservation fee (is this scam or what???? reservation fee??? wtf???)

i think i should just buy the phone from apple, fuck ROGERS!!!!

dangonay 09-16-2012 10:32 AM

Unlimited minutes daytime, evening and weekend.
Unlimited long distance Canada/US.
Unlimited texting.
6GB Data.
All the calling features (voicemail, ID, call disp etc).

$89/month.

as i posted in the robbers retentions thread,

i spoke to a retentions agent and they came out with a new incentive today for customers who are upgrading to the iphone 5. any customers who has an early upgrade fee of $100 or less will automatically get that waived if you upgrade to the iphone 5. this will not apply to any other phone.

maybe you should call them back and make sure you speak to retentions, not just a regular CS rep.

hey, can you explain how I can get the HUP fee waived? I'm 2 years into my 3 year contract with Fido..

thanks!

they sent me a defective device six times and i told the rep. she searched and found it was true and she waived it.

Hondaracer 09-16-2012 11:16 AM

Logged into myrogers account I was eligible for every phone they had as an upgrade so it will be rediculous if I'm not for the 5

Called into Rogers to check eligibility for upgrade and pricing on iphone 5. I am eligible and here are the prices quoted:

16gb: $229
32gb: $329
64gb: $429

Anyone else think this pricing is kinda ridiculous?

I think the guy's a idiot because look at the pricing thats listed on Rogers Website on a 3 year plan

http://www.rogers.com/web/content/Apple-iPhone-5

16gb: $179
32gb: $279
64gb: $379

Obsideon 09-16-2012 01:11 PM

Just reserved mine!

#1333 haha ... I'm not the type to get it right away, I would never wait in line for it. I don't mind if I don't get it within 2 weeks, free $50! :fullofwin:

I'm speaking to them as we speak and he quoted the same price. You will get a $50 credit on those prices. Which is gay because the $50 credit will just put the phone price on a regular 3 year term price. Basically the $50 credit is a scam lol.

dangonay 09-16-2012 02:21 PM

Checked with Rogers and my iPhone has gone from 5,900 to 4,200 in one day, my wife's went from 4,200 to 2,600.

winson604 09-16-2012 02:47 PM

ok I've been out of the phone game for years now so I've become more of a newbie now a days. Is unlocking an iphone different from unlocking any other regular phone? I keep seeing people talking about unlocking iphones and sometimes the difficulties with it so I'm not sure.

I'm considering buying a brand new Iphone 4 (Yea old but beter than my 9780) for cheap but it's locked to Fido, I'm with Rogers. I can get this unlocked and working on my Rogers easily correct? Can I just walk into a Fido and ask them to do it for a fee?

br2 09-16-2012 03:09 PM

ok so it went to prepared for shipping.. and now its back to processing??

:yuno::yuno::yuno:

DanHibiki 09-16-2012 03:13 PM

one of my orders is preparing for shipment, the other is still processing.

Harvey Specter 09-16-2012 03:14 PM

I was told by the Fido CSR that I will be getting an iphone on launch, we shall wait and see.
