If you want to get a device at discounted price, you have to get rid of your current plan, whether it's a shitty one or a good one. They're trying to move everyone onto their ripoff plans.
I was offered $80 for 2GB, that's $20 more than my current plan.
$20 * 24 = $480 + $100 for phone = $580. I want the Galaxy S5, and it will be $700+. I would save $120 if I renew, but my plan will be downgraded...
Give up 6gb and save $120... lol.

They can increase your monthly payments though with given notice. Either way, it's still better than their current share everything plan. Rogers customers with the grandfathered $30 6GB Data Add-On will see a $5/month increase starting in August | MobileSyrup.com | |

didn't they try to do something similar like this a while back and there was a huge outcry against it and they dropped the price increase?

Not nearly as good as some of the deals posted here but my wife added another phone on her corporate plan, no contract on this one for me but I'm buying phone outright. I actually picked up a S5 yesterday on Wind but I'm not getting service in my office so that will be going back after work and I'll get an S5 outright through Rogers for $80 more then Winds Wintab price but owned outright which is a sick deal IMO.

$550 + $10 for sim card for the Samsung S5 no contract, limited colors Gold or Gray. Wind Charged me $479 (no charge for sim) and I still had a wintab of $250. Pay an extra $81.00 and own it outright, worth it IMO.

fuckin rogers phones me starting off telling me i'm a "preferred customer" as i've been with this number since 04, he then tells me he's going to look into savings on my plan
he hums and haws for a second then he goes into this spiel about the "shared" plan basically saying 8 gigs data, unlimited nation wide toll-free calling, unlimited text messages, all caller ID etc. for $110 a month for 1 phone, then another $50 for any additional smart phone
so 110 + 50 + taxes
essentially 180 all in, right now i'm paying $76 for basically the same thing, but 6 gigs and limited call time. I tell him how does this help me other than being a burden in having to find somone to share a contact AND pay more cause i have 2 more gigs?
I said save me money on my fucking plan not offer me a plan where i need to find other people to share it.. he basically ubruptly goes into his end speach saying it's there if i want it and call back later. Fuck Rogers

^^ rogers is giving me the impression they don't care about us "long tenured" customers. My credits all expired, and when I called in there's nothing they can do or add more. I was told the plan I have now (6gb, 200 mins, my10, etc) is awesome and even their new plans wouldn't compare to that and I'd be paying more but for less 
My plan is :
6GB Super Plan
200 Weekday Minutes
Unlimited Eve & Wknd Minutes
6pm Early Evening Calling
Included with My Plan
MY10 Canada-wide Talk & Text
Ringback Service
Messaging Bundle Unlimited
LTE 6GB BB Shared Data
Call Forwarding/Call Transfer
Van./Vic. Rate Following
Billed Usage-Invoice Details
and then the value pack for like $13. So I'm looking at like $84 after tax

Rogers don't care about you guys becasue the plan you guys have right now isn't worth for them to keep you guys as a customers.
Remember all plans are now 2 years only and they actually make more money offering you guys their new plan than to keep you on your current plan.

even before the whole policy change to 2 years, they never did cared. i was with them for 10+ years and all they could do for me was give me $5 credit per line. this was before the change.
and as i have stated before, you think your plans are expensive now but keep em. and just buy your phone out right. no new plans that they offer for you will be any better and/or cheaper. just save up and buy your phone outright.
