Screw these dicks, lure you in and then jack the price like they did with the $40/6GB plan....

Bell is matching it apparently... they might have more scruples than Rogers/Fido do.

Hondaracer 12-14-2017 03:02 PM

they wont budge on mine for sure, we just reupped like 10 months ago on a share everything plan. dont even feel like calling in and trying :/

murd0c 12-14-2017 03:16 PM

I will call Bell tomorrow and find out, I haven't been under contract with them in over a year so hopefully they will give me the deal as well.

MarkyMark 12-14-2017 03:17 PM

I heard this is for new customers only, so if you're on Rogers you'd have to port to Fido or vice versa

winson604 12-14-2017 04:04 PM

Sounds great but I'll keep my $50 for 5GB Government Plan.

Vansterdam 12-14-2017 05:02 PM

Im on the old ass 6gb plan works out to $70 a month wondering if its worth switching over even though they could cancel or change the plan at any given time

also considering you would lose any sort of loyalty if you were with rogers/fido for years with the switch.

Renthal 12-14-2017 05:10 PM

i got a rogers old corp 350 gov plan, 5 gig, they bumped it upto 66$ taxes in recently

think i might switch

Mr.Money 12-14-2017 05:46 PM

wait you're providers match them?....telus doesn't give a fuck if i move over,they'll say okay and hang up the phone.

We all know the years of loyalty rarely mean anything so who cares.

With that said, someone on RFD reporting that Bell is matching the plan which is no secret by now but the 10gb will be for life vs just for 2 years.

I've been with Telus Mobility for over 12 years now. I just call their loyalty department and negotiate with them. No issues.

6gb doesnt get u far these days. All my friends are easily going over cause of social media and facebook newsfeed videos.

This $60 10gb deal is an amazing deal with NO CONTRACT. So you can keep switching every time ($25 activation fee).

twitchyzero 12-14-2017 07:01 PM

Koodo 7GB/$48 no contract atm :alonehappy:

Obsideon 12-14-2017 07:03 PM

FYI: I've heard friends call in to their current providers with success to match the plan without the hassle of jumping over Fido <> Rogers.

I waited 40 mins to get a hold of them only to be shut down. Fido rep even suggested I switch over to rogers.
So i walked into a rogers store and got it done in 10 mins.
Maybe tomorrow they'll smarten up and honor the deal to existing customers.
But it's going to be a gong show for the all carriers in the next couple days trying to match one another.

Can anyone here confirm that the bell 60 for 10gb doesn't have the 24months expire date.

Correct. Bell is 10gb 'forever'.

Anyone know who rules the coverage and LTE speeds domain? Telus/Bell/Rogers/Fido?

FN-2199 12-14-2017 08:42 PM

I called into Telus for a family member to switch this or something similar. A good 60 minutes and four different customer service reps later, we went from from 10 months left in a contract, 1GB, local calling plus the ridiculous phone insurance for $105+tax to 6GB, nationwide talk and text for $75 AND we are out of the contract.

Still a far cry from my Koodo $50/5GB, but a win nonetheless, as the plan is now month-to-month and we can now switch over to Bell or Rogers without penalty :fuckyea:

Jaffray 12-14-2017 09:26 PM

$39 Unlimited everything back when Freedom was Wind Mobile :fullofwin:

saveth 12-14-2017 10:17 PM

I called Rogers twice today and tried a live chat agent. All agents told me to Port to fido, because they couldn't match the same God damn plan they're offering to new customers - so I did. So I ported my Rogers line and Telus line. My Rogers line ported in 30 minutes whereas my Telus line won't Port because I need to contact their porting department which was closed. Does anyone know why that's happening? I think it's just a ploy to keep my Telus line on Telus and I'm not to happy with them so if they want to keep my service they're going to have to give a little.

trip 12-14-2017 10:28 PM

it's a port out comp loss tactic telus uses for mobile and residential

!LittleDragon 12-14-2017 10:35 PM

After 10 years, I gave up my personal line and I'm just sticking with my work line. We have 3gb and about 800 lines. Our data is pooled so I have virtually unlimited data :D

MarkyMark 12-15-2017 04:53 AM

You'd think Telus would have to roll out a similar plan soon or they are going to lose a shitload of customers. I like Bells deal because the 10GB doesn't expire, but I really know nothing about Bell.

I hear ya, I had one experience with Bell about 4 years ago and it was the most horrible experience I ever had. We literally had zero reception the moment we walked into the house and we live in a regular single family home with no floors sub ground and this was in Vancouver. It got out of control I had to escalate the issue up through CRTC to make Bell let us out of the contract we signed.
