Rogers is out of control with pricing - wanted me to move to a 130 dollar phone plan for a very very similar plan I have now that's 68 bucks just to try and leverage people shifting to the new iPhones. Such a scam.

Yea wait till the iphone dust settles. Just call in and threaten to cancel to speak to retentions. Be nice and calm, and ask them what you want.
works everytime.

mine did as well, and i called..apparently i did it on the LAST day they give percentage discounts.
talked to a VERY nice and helpful dude out west.
i went from paying $15x.xx a month for internet and cable with HD PVR to paying $14x.xx for BETTER internet (Hybrid Fibre 30, with 270GB bandwidth) & same package of TV with the upgraded PVR to Netbox 3.0, i ain't complaining.
i did the math realized it''s not worth it to change my sweet $60 6G Superplan for the cheap iPhone upgrade so i bought mine outright.

Retentions is crippled, you actually have to cancel and wait for winback. I was just discussing with my wife moving my cell to Telus (corporate work plan is with them), cutting cable and just relying on netflix and OTA. Between torrents and US netflix, only thing I really watch on Rogers is National Geographic.

My old monthly bill break down...
Cell @ $74 + tax [$60 6GB Superplan + $14 for Voicemail/CallDisplay junk]
Internet @ $61 + tax [Whatever the old Express internet was. 60GB Monthly data transfer]
Cable @ $75 + tax [Digital VIP + HD Speciality + TMN/HBO + HD PVR]
My new monthly break down
Cell @ $74 + tax [same as before]
Internet @ $28 + tax ($62 @ 55% off) [Hybrid Fibre 30 with 270GB monthly data, including cable modem rental]
Cable @ $105 + tax (regular price with $23 off terminal rental) [same as before, but with Netbox 3.0 PVR]
Monthly total including tax is usually around $230 depending on what i go over in cell phone usage.

Wow some of you people pay outrageous cell phone bills.
Anyway, my breakdown:
$35 for Internet
$6 for phone (vbuzzer fixed that shit at last
, mother fuckers)$50 for iphone w/ rogers after tax for 6gig data, not sure how many minutes? 350? caller display and all the other bullshit on corp plan. Iphone 6 through corp on same plan is $240 IIRC. Don't care to make the switch yet.
$0 for cable, we don't have any....except basic free thanks to zc911 mod
(I think it's 26 channels).

I was thinking of either dropping to an uber cheap Rogers cable package, or looking for some kinda 'streaming' provider... I only watch a few channels anyway (yeah yeah, that's how they get you): CNN, TLC, Discovery, FoodTV, A&E, MuchMusic...
Looks like it'd be a shitty deal to buy your own Rogers cable boxes (HD, SD, no PVR) ... Hmph...

Just splice into your cable modem, free TV.
Or you can run BEV and split the cost between a few people.

Split your coax connection coming into your house before it gets to your cable modem.
As for BEV? Get a buddy/friend/family member to order an extra receiver, install at your house and split the bill.
This shit ain't rocket science.

Re: FU rogers....FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Define 'splitting'.
I'm talking about not paying at all for Rogers cable tv, and having TekSavvy cable internet coming thru the line...
There's no 'cable tv' to split...
If you're referring to 'splitting' cable tv for the same of skipping the '$x.99/mth for extra outlet', then yes, I've done that. (i.e. you're still paying out the ass/mth for cable)

Re: FU rogers....FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Just put a decent 2 way splitter on the line feeding your cable modem (antronix) is the one rogers normally uses. Connect one fees to your modem and the other to RF jack on TV. You should at least get basic cable (up to 29 or so)

I usually get up to 59-60, but some are missing inbetween. Sure beats paying for it.

My 60% internet discount was up and I had to call yesterday.
First they said nothing they could do but giving me a free HD PVR for 3 years.
They no longer give out discounts he said.
So I asked for the retention department.
The customer relations guy gave me 20% off cable and internet, plus HD PVR and an HD box.
and $8 off modem rental.
I didn't have to say I would cancel.
Just said my discount was up and I wanted to see what's available.

Been receiving a 1 year discount back since July / August. Didn't call them to bitch or anything (maybe someone else called in and wanted a discount but mistakenly applied to mine instead?
). Bill went down from $145 / month to $100 / month (taxes in).I'll take that for now.
