They know whether you are calling from a direct line or by other CSRs. I think it is MUCH better to have to go through different CSRs than going straight and having them wonder about why you have that number.
Sure it will take longer but the end results should be better. | If they ever ask me how I got it, I tell 'em a CSR gave it to me because I was on hold for an hour waiting for Retentions and didn't want to go through that whole ordeal again because if I did, it would make me definitely cancel my service. Or something like that, anyway.

I usually don't tell them I'm willing to sign for 3 years right off the bat. I work my way up and say "1 year" then "what can you give me for 2 years", etc.

$35 - Unlimited Local Calling
$30 - 6GB Data
$10 - Value Pack
-$5 - Monthly Credit
-$5 - Data Credit
----------------------------
$65 + 2.58 + tax = $75.59
Tried getting more credits and discounts but couldn't.
Also got a hardware upgrade for the 32GB iphone4 even though I was 1 year into my contract.

Anyone have more luck than me?.. Obviously I didnt take the data plan, and want to know what else I can do to make them give me a better deal. | Ask for the 1gb for $15, so you get $15 in credit.
when you upgrade to 6gb, hopefully the credit still applies and u get 6gb for $15

Hi guys, just a quick question?
I've been with rogers for 8 years and I'm still paying the system acess fee and the 911 fee which adds up to 10$ around? extra
currently I have 250 daytime free incoming, free calling from 6pm and weekends and voicemail and caller id for including tax
$36.62
I plan on getting an iphone 4 or 3 doesnt really matter.
but does anyone have an idea how much rogers rentetion plans are?
My gf is paying 27$ a month for 100 mb, free voicemail and caller id 200 day time minutes unlimited calling after 5pm for her newley bought iphone 4.
any advice would be good.
would rogers match fidos offer?
I;ve been with rogers for 6 years at least and my mom as well..

You've seen some of the plans that have been posted here and you should be able to match any of them. If you haven't seen the plans, I would suggest that you look back a few pages and do some research.
Beating them, however, is a completely different situation.

I also have the 100 Canadian Long Distance.
I've been on this plan for about a year now. I think I can get better considering I am still paying the SAF.

Just got off the phone with customer relations... Didn't change my plan at all but finally got my hands on an iphone 4 16gb at 159.
I'm only 17 months into my current contract so it works out pretty good considering both the promotion and the HUP eligibility have changed.
The rep I spoke with was SUPER nice/polite as well...

^^ when you get the phone, go and CALL them and say "please check your record, but i was never told the 35 dollars access fee. They will put you on hold and they will confirm they never told you this and they will credit you.
just be nice and polite.
You can't get an epic plan UNLESS you want to sign up for a 3 yr contract and you've been with them for a while.
