^ You should see this thread: [Elect] Rogers Wireless Retention Plans - RedFlagDeals.com Forums
Retention plans are usually 60-ish with 6GB data.

I'm just gonna call back in a bit. | wtf. That's a lie. If I remember correctly, you just had to be an airmiles member but telling you that you have to/had to be a rogers employee is completely false. Try calling back until you get someone know knows their shit.

To b honest you don't have to b any sort of member to get the 17.50 plan(200 min, free after 6 and weekends. This one right?). I got it just by renewing my contact. But I had to give it up to get a different plan. U just need to talk to a rep that doesn't have her head up her ass. good luck lol. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Try not to ask or use specific terms. Usually don't have good experiences. Just call and tell them your needs and see what they can do for you.

I want to port my number out from Rogers to Bell, since most of my family and friends are using Bell.
I called customer relations today, and the lady was willing to offer me a new phone. So heres the deal.
I get a brand new HTC Raider for $151.xx taxes in but they will have to sign me up for a new 3 yr term.
But since Im cancelling anyways, can I just take new deal with the new phone and then cancel after?
If I cancel now, I'll be paying $500 + HST, but if I took the phone and cancel after, I will be paying $500 + $151.xx for the phone and I end up with a brand new phone that I could sell to cover up my fees.
Can someone tell me if it will work?
Thanks

That $151 breaks down to $99 for the phone, $35 for activation fee and the rest for other fee and taxes.

personal ethics aside, you might as well take the phone and then cancel. your only paying $150 more and im sure you can sell it for more than that.

I think your cancellation fee is the full price of the phone $574.99 - the subsidized price of $151 + admin fee.

Apparently Rogers' new retention plans aren't nearly as good as the old ones. When I upgraded my phone I got a warning from my rep to never change anything with my plan because they'd then have to change me to the new retention plans. So just a heads up for anyone with a good plan from the last few years.
FWIW this is what I have:
500 Weekday
6pm Ev+Wknd
Retentions Value Pack (2.5K text, Call disp/ID, etc.)
1K LD Minutes
6GB LTE Data
~58/m after taxes and fees
~

So if you cancel 1 month afterwards:
($574.99 full price - $151 subsidize price) x (35months remaining / 36months total contract ) + $12.50 admin fee = $424.71. This is for the voice plan only.
There's also the Additional Device Savings Recovery Fee (ADSRF) for the data which I have no idea how it's calculated.
Applies Jan.22 and after.

^ Why do you think I paid the $500 ECF to get away from Rogers.
I was willing to pay the penalty to get away from what to me was very sub-par service.

34.95 doesn't include caller id (unless you negotiated it in)
12 = caller id + vm
25 = 500mb data
so it would be ~70 dollars....not a good deal.
