Well I said we don't outsource our center because you said we have no English speaking agents, I think you might have forgotten were you live. If you except for everyone to speak crystal clear English in a multicultural country like Canada it’s just not going to happen.

As for the rates I think there fair and competitive with the market. You can go to McDonalds and get a double cheeseburger for their value meal or you can go to a fine dining restaurant and get a steak. Were the steak, I prefer the steak myself.

Your absolutely right not everyone is going to like Rogers and that’s just the nature of the business I just wanted to help you be a little more informed that concerns like the ones you have stated have been brought up in the past and are being addressed all the time to help improve the service Rogers provides for its customers.

And competition is great it’s what gets us all our customers as we still are the number one provider in Canada.


While Rogers and I have had disagreements, I'll admit that of the MANY times that I've had to call DIG or ACC I've never really ever dealt with a language barrier whatsoever. Multicultural country or not, I expect the person on the other end to speak at least ONE of the two officially recognized languages in a clear and coherent manner and I've had ZERO issues with that and have rarely heard of issues like that when dealing with Rogers & their CSRs.

As for Rogers and their status as the "largest" provider, I honestly think it's less a matter of innovation and moreso capitalizing on a market where other corporations simply don't have the resources or infrastructure to challenge them. New equipment / hardware / handsets are almost ALWAYS developed for the GSM platform as that covers nearly 85 or 90% of your worldwide consumer market. With RCI being the only provider in Canada that uses that infrastructure, it gets first crack at "new" products. If you ask me, this makes the Rogers hype machine easier to fuel as they really don't have to fit / outbid for exclusivity on product, the latest and greatest is just low-hanging fruit to them as in most cases CDMA equipment is months (if not years) from being ready for primetime.

I honestly think once there's some VIABLE competition (IE a provider with the resources to take Rogers on directly - not just in terms of spectrum and coverage but financially) you'll start to see MUCH more consumer-centric ethos and business practice. What GlobalLive is supposedly doing with their text messaging / call display packs included in the rate plan is a great first step to generate this competition that I feel Canada so badly needs, all the providers and their customers will be all the better for it.

Meaning they are setting up their network and almost ready to roll out.

T-Mobile was the only one in the world to use the 1700 band, and now GlobalLive is on it too.

That's why there was a huge rumor about T-Mobile coming to Canada, but they backed off.

so i guess that it isnt going to be 1700 when they first roll out but maybe in the future?
