i'm sure you can get CID or VM separately.. I believe CID is $8/month. there are also value packs listed on their website for $12 - http://www.rogers.com/web/Rogers.por...bel=AppsAddons

The line is currently on a 3-yr blackberry email data plan -_- (I thought it was just an add-on but they added it to my plan for 3 years) I'm hoping they'll let me switch for data! 1gb would be great.

How decent is my plan?

300 minutes,
Unlimited evenings and weekends after 6PM,
2500 texts,
6GB LTE data,
VM, CID, CF

$55 a month. I usually get my friend who's an account manager at Rogers to renew my credits every so often.

I'm going to Asia in two weeks, so I'm trying to see if this plan could generate any interest before I hand it over to my parents (minus the data).

That's a solid plan for that price. The crazier ones you see are the same price point but 1000 mins or unlimited and unlimited text. But honestly not many people actually need unlimited.

It seems adequate..........would minus the data be -$30? That would be a great plan for $25 without the data.

The retentions guy offered me the 6Gb super something plan. I was like I got 8 months left and you can't offer me anything better than that? He told me the expired 6Gb plan went to retentions after

Yes, it would be minus $30.

If anyone wants to take over my contract, please let me know. There will be two years remaining in January.

It is a corporate plan, and last time I checked, I believe it's not transferable, but with Rogers policies always changing, it could be possible now.

I am leaving in two weeks, so I would love to hook someone on RS up if it's possible, rather then giving it to my dad who doesn't need all the minutes.

EDIT: Plan is transferable with no fee. However, no phone will be included. Hit me up if you want it.

----------------------------
6GB Data

Hey

If I set up a plan with Fido, but never activated the number, can I back out? Rogers offered me a competitive plan.

Well shes clearly bullshitting you. Call another rep to confirm. Never heard of 'not upgradeable'. That's basically telling you they don't want your business

My contract with Rogers is up soon and I'm tempted to port my number over to Fido in order to take advantage of their current $57 promotion. It's cheaper than what I currently pay, and I only get the following:

200 Anytime minutes
Unlimited Early Evening (6pm start) and Weekends
Unlimited Texts
Limited VM
Call Display
Call Waiting
500mb Data

Allegedly I'm also supposed to have Visual Voicemail and WhoCalled (whoopdeedoo!), but those have never worked on my phone.



Edit: Oh, wtf... they got rid of the credit I had for the early evening calling. I was told that was supposed to last the remainder of my contract. Fuckers.

I've been eyeing that Fido plan for a whole 2 months. The fact that it's 2gb now is just icing on the cake. It's too bad it'll cost me 400+ to cancel a plan where I save marginally

In your case, assuming you've tried retentions, that Fido deal is the best deal I've seen aside from Mobo/Wind. I say go for it. I was told when inquiring about cancelling is that minimum cancellation fee is $100, and since most plans are $20/remaining month to cancel, if you're within 5 months of your end date you might as well do it now.
