Has anyone else received a notice from rogers saying that you need to get a new phone by May 30th cause your old one will stop working?
Rediculous. I don't buy a phone with a 3 year contract and expect to have to throw it out a year later, just to be forced to either get a stupid free replacement phone or pay all over again for a decent one. And I can't even log into their site for this 'rogers.com/migrateme' cause my phone number doesn't match their record (my roger's cell phone number :wtf: ) and their call center has the worst hours and give me alert box popups on mouse over. who honestly makes an alert box pop up when you mouse over text..
plus, it would cost $400 to end my contract early.

thank you for your insightful post.
Btw, when I bought my phone, I asked what are the main differences between this phone I got (samsung, dont know the model) and the RAZR, at the rogers kiosk in the mall. The sales person told me, if you have the RAZR, everyone will look at you and think woah you have the RAZR. I'm serious, that's what he told me. So naturally after that, I bought the Samsung.
If he would have done is job properly, and told me that the Samsung doesn's use GSM while the RAZR does (i'm assuming it does since they still sell it), and that GSM is the superior technology, then I wouldn't have this problem right now. |

Yeah, but isn't there just one option of a free phone? The Nokia 6061? That's all it says on this notice they gave me, or it says you could get the Nokia 6133 for $30 and another 3 year contract. |

i worked for rogers.. and honestly i don't think they were selling TDMA phones when the RAZR came out.. but ill be a nice guy because you're complaining soo much. you can get a new phone sent to you without a contract renewal. call this number 1-888-936-7283. be nice.. and you'll get your way. |

Hmm..
So..
Do you think Rogers could just be trying to trick me? The notice clearly states that "I must get a new phone by May 30, 2007. Otherwise, my phone will no longer work and my account will be cancelled."
But
I just did a search, and the phone I have "Samsung SGH-P207" is apparently a GSM phone.
