Qoute "Phone"

Call Phone uses WAP

Palm Treos, BlackBerry & WM OS uses DATA

Just got off the phone w/ a another rep and she states "since you were mislead ... we will credit your account on the next bill"

We'll see about this ... when the bill comes in.

I was asking the Fido user what phone they use, not you.

same shit, you still don't get it at all.

PDA PHONE - DATA
CELL PHONE - WAP

Doesn't matter what networks your on .... once they detect your device uses HTML instead of WAP, it kicks in

also even if your on a phone, you don't have a plan it charges you 0.05 per KB

So how much is this unlimited plan for a cell phone???

I believe Apple is insisting on this. They won't allow the phone to be sold without a reasonably-priced unlimited data plan.

'Course the consequence of that may just be that it'll be a long time before we get the iPhone here.

And people wonder why theres no iPhone in Canada yet?
Well its cause Rogers wont be able to be the Carrier and still soke people! lol The figure the average user data bill for the month w/b close to $500.00 and several of the phones features such as Video Calling will still be limited!

Rogers claim they are waiting for v2 of the phone.... bs they are trying to figure out the next scheme to soak people!

I myself completely had them suspend all internet on my HTC Smartphone.
First I had a 40$ / 8mb month DataPlan and they where alway charging me almost double when I wasnt even using the Phone for Data? some how the phone was accessing it by itself. Then I cancelled the DataPlan altogether. and the phone was still doing it except @ .05 per Kb. So my last bill was almost $40.00 for just under 800k lol!
Thant when i said enough is enough.. the funny thing is they have credited back every cent I claim i never used to the tune of almost $300 in the last 6 mths!

The funny thing is John is right theres no really diff between the Voice and the Data now that the voice is digital.. it data! lol

Wow, exactly this happened to me.

Rogers/Fido have had unlimited Internet use for $7 for quite a while now (WAP only) and apparently works for the new N95 which is pretty sweet!


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.

But right now we're SOL for unlimited Data...

They're usually pretty good with reverseing internet charges, they know they're getting away with raping hundreds of other users with this bullshit internet charges they don't care about sorting out one or two customers who bitch about it...

I got nabbed 3 months in a row with $500+ bills because they said there was a $5 plan on it, then when it went over they credited it back to the threshold and shit...

The internet sucks on my phone...only use it for facecrack lol...
