That deal is basically unheard of, I’ve never seen/heard of anyone getting that. With my employee discount of 40% off my HS150 costs more I think lol

Thoughts? | I went for it, I was with Shaw for 2 years and TELUS is so much better in my opinion. There's so much free wifi out there as it is nowadays that the shaw open incentive didn't matter to me. I upgraded to internet 50 and Medium tv package and im paying 30 bucks a month.

Thoughts? |
NHO should be HS300 (unlimited data), TV essentials (up to 2, 4k boxes), home phone lite, free first year on 2yr contract. Can cancel 2nd year for $15/remaining months ($180). So if you plan to cancel, think of it as $15/month for 1yr.

Telus contract up next month, looking to renew.
Current plan is TV pik 6 ($38) / Internet 75 ($50) / Home Phone ($7) = $95 before tax.
Called today and spoke to Philippines lady from Telus, offered me practically the same thing I'm paying for 2 year renewal, with some extra added features which I don't care for.
I'm considering adding home security and get rid of TV since no one watches TV at home now.

shaw offered renewal plan:
Internet 50 (downgrade from current 75) - $40
Small TV + 5 Theme pack - $57
Free 4k box
total $97 + tax = $108/mo on 2 year term.
is this reasonable for now a days?
Telus was just ridiculous wanted $170/mo for Optik Tv + 4 pack + Internet 75.
I haven't accepted.
Any competitors to Tek Savvy? maybe they have internet + tv similar?

Any competitors to Tek Savvy? maybe they have internet + tv similar? | I just renewed with Telus this morning. Pik 5 TV + Internet 75 + Home Line = $67. I opted out of Optik since rarely watch shows on TV, but nice to have TV when I do want to watch (app based with my options - tablet/computer/phone).
If I wanted Optik TV + Internet 75, Telus offered me $88. Not too far off than your Shaw deal.
Telus is trolling you with that plan they offered since they can literally offer that for 1/2 the price/even less than that since you'll be a new customer if you switch from Shaw.

I'm on Pik5TV+Internet 300 for $70/mth. (add tax of course). Can't complain.
Was able to get the same deal for my friend, although they wanted $5 more, but still a decent deal IMO.

I didn't need tv or home phone but my internet plan I just got on the weekend is Shaw 300. Unlimited. 300 bill credit. 2 year for 53 dollar. If I divide the credit in 24.month it's about 40 bucks a month for internet which isn't bad...

I would never return to shaw cause of horrible lag around dinner time. Happy with telus and willing to give Novus a chance if Telus keeps raising their prices.

I searched on Facebook market Shaw reps and few sent me deals but best one was the 53 and 300 credit so when I went to store I asked what they can offer and she said 55 with 250 credit so I told her someone else offered me 53 with 300 and she said ok she can do it also.

You shouldn't have to haggle, wheel and deal, type in a special cheat code and spend hours on the phone to get an internet deal. Telus called 3 weeks back and asked if the can run fiber to the house. I said no problem. Checked the Telus website today and they want $70 for 50 down 10 up. They will give me $200 if I sign up for a 2-year deal. Making the final price $54. Can't wait for starling.
Anyone looking for no B.S. internet check out https://www.can-com.com $80 for 600 down no contract no haggling required.

If you get a referral to Novus, both accounts get one free month of service. Just throwing it out there in case you don't know anyone else on Novus.
I thought about switching over to Telus because their reps came to my building to offer some promos. I took the day off work and their tech no showed. I rescheduled for another day. The tech called me 30 minutes before the appointment and said he didn't have the key to enter the telecom room in my building. Our building caretaker had already left for the day so I just said forget it.
