haha...that actually happens quite often!

IF you go on HOFO there quite a few people who post bills of $5,000 + per month because of some stupid data shit lol (not quite $26,000 though lol) but still lol

Gotta love it!

Not really a while, they just started offering that in the last two months or so.

There is no such thing as an unlimited DATA plan as of right now. Rogers did have one at one point for $50/month which is an awesome add-on if you got your hands on it when they offered it.

Rogers never had unlimited data, only Fido offered unlimited data at $50/month, that was well before Rogers bought Fido. They grandfather the plan at Fido.

People don't need unlimited, even 500MB is enough, I had unlimited on my Windows Mobile Device (3G) and never went over 500MB. I had push email and even tethered the device from time to time.

at the speeds rogers' edge network runs at you probably couldnt use more than 3 gigs in a month if you tried...

the current fido and rogers plans are unlimited browsing as long as youre using a rogers or fido device...it says unlimited WAP but thats just for simplicities sake...if youre using a phone you bought from rogers or fido (phone not smartphone) youll be fine...

there are loads of threads about this on howardforums...some dude just got nailed with a $22000 bill..hhahahah

Well I have sony ericsson K850i on the city fido plan and I was stupid.....I went online and was browsing the internetz on my cell and hence paid the extra price.....Now I have unlimited surfing part of some $15 bundle that I get for discounted price for being with fido for such a long time.....But I still think that if I post on TA thru my cell I will be charged for data(not sure on that one can someone help)????????????

UPDATE:

Got my account balance today and the totally of Data Charger was about $230+

Since my account has 3 complaint notes and etc, regarding this mislead info ... they have credited me back right away without any questions.

Thank GOD!

But wow, I didn't even do much and the total amount was 4.6MB

JESUS ROGER'S IS RAPING EVERYONE.

You would be surprised how many people I switch from roger's to bell and port their number over to bell because they and fed up with rogers and want nothing to do with them on a daily basis.

I believe so, but because Apple just invented '3G' yesterday, you will have to add another $50/month to use it

why doesn't rogers have anything adresing the iphone on their website?

Rogers will have iPhone eventually, but right now its confidential when it is going to happen. There are 50 people who have that information, but they all signed "nondisclosure" agreement and are not even allowed to trade now.

And yes, Rogers has piece of shit customer service. But so does Bell and Telus. It's the lack of competition / oligopoly that is screwing us over big time.

I absolutely *LOVE* Solo Mobile's customer service. Every time I call there its a pleasure (it actually is) talking to the rep. Very helpful, very friendly.

Had them back off charges on my account w/o even asking them to do that when they noticed i did some surfing before i added the unlimited browsing! Solo Mobile's customer service is fantastic!

Like night and day to Bell's, just an FYI, for those who care.

i'm always afraid to call retentions because if they call my bluff about leaving them, i really don't want to go to rogers or whoever else.
