Hey all,

I believe this is my very first post about a HOT HOT HOT deal.
Problem is, this deal ends TOMORROW Feb 26, 2009.

For those of you livinig in Downtown Vancouver using NOVUS, you NEED to read this!!


Essentially, this is a deal that was sent to pretty much all the apartments in Downtown Vancouver that are NOVUS buildings (Novus is a Internet/Cable/Digi Phone provider that only services this area - Built in fibre-optics right into the building...very cool - for those of you who dont know) - Shaw is obviously wanting to steal over as many Novus customers as possible. (www.novusnow.ca)

I called Novus yesterday to see what they can do in terms of competing or matching this deal - They were having meetings all day yesterday to figure out what they are going to do and I should be getting a response today.

If its good enough, I'll stick with them...if their offer sucks, well...I'm off to sign up with Shaw for this amazing deal.

Can you still get that deal although you dont have Novus?

[Mr.HappySilp]

^^ NAG THEM. One of my co-workers was able to get it after spending 40mins with them on the phone.

Awesome... I"ll let my sister know. Novus is a fuckin' bitch if you hit the bandwidth limit.

I switched over using this deal last Monday, except I'm only using Internet/tv, no telephone.

Novus really couldn't do anything to match it for me at the time so I switched. It cut my cost in half for a year so why not... :)

So basically anyone NOT living in DT, cannot get this deal?

nice deal

[blum2001]

The deal was only sent to customers that are on novus. Doesn't specifically have to be a downtown building but if you're building has a Novus connection I guess you could call shaw and threaten to leave to novus since novus is trying to match the deal.

Just call shaw and threaten to leave. Doesn't hurt to try.

Does Novus only offer services to apartments?

Tried, no luck. The guy I had wasn't willing to budge. I even asked what he could do for me, and was given a scripted answer.

[HonestTea]

^ damn :(

OP... did you get a response from Novus on a possible counter offer?

[Vansterdam]

i wish i had fibre optics in my house =[

My sister stayed with Novus. They reduced her rate to $40/month for cable and internet, and they gave her PVR at no charge. She was previously paying $43 for cable (complete package) and $38 for internet. Total ~$81. So now she's paying less than half. Competition is good.
