I'm planning on switching from Fido to Rogers, so just curious if anyone is with them? How's the customer service? Do they overcharge a lot?

I want to get this bitch:

So like I said depending on if your an NCM or Officer and your rank, you probably make at least $50,000 a year but most likely more. And depending on if you live at CFB Kingston your cost of living is probably very low as well, but even if you weren't cost of living in Kingston isn't that bad. Its only $30 which is cheaper than most nights at Stereo. Most of us on here who post about Stereo have put out probably hundreds and hundreds of dollars clubbing there just this year alone, and have never really complained for the most part. I know I sure as hell have.

I thought they were the same company now... Nice phone.

Well they are, but their plans/phones/etc are diffrent.

I don't mind staying with Fido, but their phones suck and I'm tired of my RAZR.

Buy the phone, it's GSM, unlock it and use it with Fido

All you have to do is swap the smartcard from old phone to the new unlocked one.

Rogers charges by the minute, while Fido still does it by the second.

I'm saying still because Rogers is slowly but surely fucking up Fido and i believe its a matter of time before it becomes a "by the minute" thing.

By the minute is so retarded, every company can offer by the second, but they refuse to in order to rake in the extra cash.

I think Rogers dreads when I call. When I had my blackberry (just got a RAZR 2 weeks ago now), but they were overcharging me 10$ a month for something that was suppose to be for a Trio since 2004. They rebated back the full 280$ due to it being their error. Also I bitched enough about a few other things that they would reverse other charges for me as well like when I was in EU and had about 100$ in charges I shouldn't have had.

So as far as customer services goes, they are pretty good imo. I always get what I want when I call them or get what I need fixed taken care of. Their reps have gotten my ext. at work and have called me back if it was going to take them longer than 10 min to find out my answer.

But on the other side, all phone companies are pricks and rape you so it is your choice in the end.


edit: I've been with Rogers for 7 yrs now too though. That could make a difference with the customer service I get from them.

Rogers and Fido are the same, except that if you call rogers and bitch, you will for sure get more stuff out of them. Plus rogers phones are always gonna be better than Fido's. thats the way rogers wants it. plans are similar, and will become more and more similar as time goes by.

the K790 is a sick phone, you should get it, it comes with a 1gb memory card until dec 31st.

PM me if you want a good hook up.
