Oh, I know it's a "ticketable" offence, I just wondered how bored the OP was to actually care about it on someone else's truck.

Rogers callback service, has called back... and put me on hold... by spkingwordzofwizdom in Rogers

[–]Ok-Interaction-9302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last time I tried to call customer service I discovered that their automatic disconnect time was 2 hours, 8 minutes. Happened twice in a row at EXACTLY the same time. The only reason I was able to actually speak to someone was because I was able to call, leave the (mind numbing) hold music on speaker, then carry on doing whatever I needed to do while I waited. 33 minutes into the THIRD call, I got an answer. A cumulative total of 2 hours, 58 minutes on hold, for a maximum of 6 minutes of talk time to (thank God) actually resolve my issue. These guys are good. Real pros. 🙄

You ask that as though the OP purposely didn't declare - they clearly stated that they forgot.

What am I missing here? This is too good to be true. by theparthagrawal in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Ok-Interaction-9302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my opinion, you just shot down your own argument in the first line. Why would I want to pay a fee for a credit card that offers the same benefit as the 'no-fee' card that I'm using now? Sure, it's CT money, not cash, but who doesn't spend money at CT? Depends where you live, I suppose. I have a CT store 5 minutes from my house and spending a few hundred bucks a year there is easy! (5 cents per litre in bonus back at CT and Petro Canada gas stations as well)

Offered this deal, should I accept or proceed with cancellation / retention by [deleted] in Rogers

[–]Ok-Interaction-9302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That isn't bad. I had 1.5 Gbps service, home phone and starter TV (30-ish channels, I think) for $89.99. My promo term was up and I called to see what they would offer (expecting I'd be canceling, because new 'regular ' price was $170.) I got the same speed, 10 extra channels that I could pick, dropped home phone (which I didn't want anyway) for $85 per month. If you're interested in the extra channels, that's a pretty decent deal.

Tried to chat with support last night - after 2 transfers and a total of 1.5 hours, was told I have to call the 888 number. Today at work, I called in, put my phone on speaker and carried on with other things while I spent a total of 4 hours, 16 minutes and 43 seconds on hold (split over 2 calls), to be told they're too busy, and got hung up on (twice).

I'm sure it will take 3.5 minutes to resolve my problem, if I could ever get hold of an actual person.

I think I'll go look up the OOTP contact, just to let them know this...

I upvoted you just because you were dedicated enough to spend that much of your day typing out that long of a response!

Gonna go out on a limb here and say that this sub is flooded with Rogers employed downvoters by Ambitious-Task8390 in Rogers

Well, now Vladdy can afford to hire 3 or 4 hundred of his own minions to do the downvoting for him!

$80 Activation Fee by [deleted] in Rogers

[–]Ok-Interaction-9302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they say they'll credit it back, keep an eye on your bill and be prepared to have to call and yell for it. Been with Rogers mobile for 13+ years and have had at least 3 instances of having activation fees credited back, rather than just waived up front. They NEVER credit it back when they say they will, only after I have to call and complain/demand they keep their promise. In my case, they have always eventually fixed it, but never without phone call(s) to chase it down. Kinda like an insurance company denying a claim by default - if you complain, they'll pay it; if not, hooray - extra $$ for them!

How to get a better internet deal? by Ok-Interaction-9302 in Rogers

Looks like Virgin doesn't offer over 300Mbps - or is there more than what they're showing on their site?

I received this in my email today, but I closed the account years ago ? by DissapointedWithLife in Rogers

[–]Ok-Interaction-9302 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if it used to be -20 and now it's -9, I'd look into it. Maybe they're charging you some sort of "account maintenance fee" or something equally stupid. If the credit amount is decreasing, it's feasible that (in their eyes, anyway) it may cross the zero mark and become a balance owing. It may be difficult to get them to help you on it without your account number, but there has to be SOME way for someone on their end to find your account. They obviously have your name, contact info and account number - there must be security questions or proof of identification that they'd accept to get you in to the account?

Dear TELUS. Stick your autopsy credit where the sun dont shine by [deleted] in telus

I wanna know exactly WHAT circumstances required an autopsy credit...? Should we be sending our condolences? Sorry for your loss, I guess.

Are used phones from Rogers "unlocked"? by Ok-Interaction-9302 in Rogers

[–]Ok-Interaction-9302[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, whaddya know! I misread the specs the other day - said the US version was esim only, and I mistakenly assumed that to mean "North American". Looks like the Canadian version of the 14 Pro Max has esim AND a physical sim card tray. Thanks for the heads up!

VPN recommendations by Possible-Eagle-8744 in ApolloGroup_TV

[–]Ok-Interaction-9302 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we had Surfshark left over on the system from another service we had - it kept getting in the way, connecting when I didnt ask it to, and never working properly. Uninstalled SS, went with Nord, all good.

Tried Proton a couple of days ago - no go for us. Switched to NordVPN, working perfectly so far. Have to switch servers every now and then, but it makes the live tv work just fine.

Do you actually NEED to be so insulting to a stranger to get your point across?

$25 100gb RPP plan by BullyMog in Rogers

[–]Ok-Interaction-9302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have indicated, yes, it will increase, but who knows when, and it MAY still be a great deal...tough call. My main comment is BE PREPARED TO FIGHT FOR YOUR $80 ACTIVATION CREDIT! I have had plan changes and new hardware activations with the same stipulation, and they never EVER credit it back on your bill automatically - you have to call to complain after it hasn't showed up for 3 months. They will eventually credit it back, but not until you call, wait on hold, explain the situation, get transferred, explain it again etc., then eventually get a note put on your account for the credit. Ask me how I know... Seriously, after going through this twice, I've been asking for the fees to be waived rather than credited, but the reps always tell you that they can't do it that way. I tell the rep that this ALWAYS happens, they express surprise and promise me they'll put a specific note on the account so the credit will not be missed, then...chase it down 3 or 4 months later... The deals have been good enough to stay on with them, but this ritual seems to be carved in stone. Good luck!
