Thanks Philip! I followed your advice and was able to lower my bill.
For $82.77 (HST included) - phone (with unlimited LD to Hong Kong), Internet, Basic TV with Fridge. But no HD and anything else (because she told me I am not with Shaw long enough?!) Is this a good or bad deal??

I think mine is better because I get a free PVR and HD (still I don't watch that much TV), nonetheless, Shaw basically is giving you the same package as you are now, and throw in the phone service for free, which I find the phone service is the same if not better than Telus and the local LD companies. At least my calls to HK are no longer lag like walkie talkie style
So no body is getting a similar deal from Shaw like mine? local phone + (basic TV + 10 HD + Chinese channels) + high speed Internet for $69 a month. I am saving $30 compared to before and so far the overall quallity has been good.
Call Shaw customer service and threaten to switch to Telus. But you must do your homework and tell them what Telus is offering and their packaged price. They actually know the Telus price very well and just want to know how serious you are.
I think I called 3 times and at the end, I agreed to swich my line phone from Telus to Shaw. The sales guys then threw in the free PVR rental and we finally agreed to $69.
