my current $25 plan has unlimited rogers to rogers and rogers to fido, though its not a retention plan, so I have to pay for CID and all that... so bill comes to around $40-45-ish?
i think the unlimited rogers to rogers and fido thing is a pretty good deal, since almost everyone is almost either on rogers or fido. you also get that 250 anytime minute in case you have to call some landline or some rare telus/bell people.

but i still like 2.5 years more to go on my current contract >.< it is gonna be a long wait!
i heard some people have bills that are like $20 AFTER tax... with all the features maxed and such... i really dunno how they can get such good deals.

Rainy, how long did you have ur cell phone for?
I got the custom relations plan. Free rogers to rogers, 250 daytime minutes, unlimited evenings (starting 8pm) and weekends. Free caller id and voicemail. They only upgraded my phone to SE w200a >< with a very small memory card ><
$20 monthly plan

Waruione,
your plan is nice too, R2R, R2F... it's pretty good. When your contract is up, you call retention and see if they are willing to wavie your CID feature. Althou it's 2.5 years to go, you can still give it a try. How long have you been with Rogers?Don't know how they get such good deals? Well, it took me quite awhile to have such deal...... The trick is to talk to them nicely, don't beg them and say I want this for free. Say that you want to keep the monthly price as what you use to pay yet want a little bit more features in order for you to continue to be their customers =)

weewee,
I called the CXR like end of Dec of 2007. So, I have that new SE w580i for less than a month. So, I just renew my new 3-yrs term not too long ago. I told them that if they can send me a better phone, and they asked me what kind of phone I like. They said they would waive the activation fees and give me credits for the phone. I just talked to him nicely and yeah, that's how I got the phone for free. But, I heard that lots of people were getting that w580i for $49.99 so yea, I guess it depends on which rep you talk to. The 8G memory card is like a promotion thingy... one rep said I am not qualified to have one, but one said I can. Of coz, I got it... ahhahahah

Do you think I can get your plan if I move from Telus from Rogers? That's new business for them. How do you get the $10 credit and then the $5 credit?

I'ver heard that some telus users called that Roger's CXR #s. I guess you can call and say if rogers can price match with the telus plan you are using and request if they would offer a bit better. Then, say if they can offer better you would switch over? I thought telus has a plan like $17/month?

how do i get those $5, and $10 credits... took me quite awhile.... but when I requested for a little more features, they said I can get whichever package and I said sure BUT i'm not willing to pay more than $20 a month... hahahahah

If you want to get good plans when moving from other companies such as telus, you need to talk to customer relations in Rogers. There's no use going to retail outlets since they don't have the power to give you any special plans/credits.

I've done this some time last year and got $5 credit/month on my bill.  For those that want more information on what you are eligible for, you should go to hofo and read the different tier system in Rogers.

I've just re-newed my Rogers plan few days ago.
I had to pay $74.99 for the SE W580i for the 3-yrs $20 Max Air plan which includes:
- 250 minutes Weekdays
- Unlimited after 8pm and on Weekends
- Free Caller ID

However, after seeing Rainy's post.  I've called in to Rogers Customer Relations Department and talked to them,
they are now waving the $74.99 phone fees and giving me the $10 CID,VM,& 125 Sent/Recieve Text package for free too.

Right now, I'm having:
- Free SE W580i
- $20 MAX Air:

- 250 minutes Weekday

- Unlimited minutes after 8pm and on Weekends

- Free $10 every months for CID,VM,& 125 Sent/Recieve Text package (until 2011年)

So the total would be about $30.75/month including the extra charges and Taxes.

P.S. Sometimes their CREDIT calculating system is kind of weird.  I've been using one of the Rogers phone for like 6-yrs.  And the other for like 3-yrs only.  And the credit for the 6 yr one is not as good as the 3-yrs one.  But both of them are on the same account.  So sometimes ask them to check which phone's credit is better before you sign a contract.

草莓妹妹, GOOD JOB!

To everyone, my advice is, talk to them nicely... don't just ask for "can i have this for free". Instead, you can say something like "Yeah, I would enjoy such feature(s) if I don't have to pay so much" ... etc After all, they are still human beings, they are not here for us to bit*h at =P
