 | Does the promotion apply to current customers? I have DSL 6MB, I want to upgrade to the 16MB service, will I be eligible? |
|
 | reply to TwiztedZero Just called, seems the people at Teksavvy won't have detailed information until tomorrow.
It will be awesome if the upgrade from 6 to 16 can be waived. |

 tomulek join:2002-05-20 Etobicoke, ON | reply to amanda83 Why wouldn't it apply? They are waving activation fee, do those with 6MB service have to pay activation fee( for 12,16,25)? YES ! so for the month of march nobody have to, but I think speed change charge still applies. |

Tips hat to MatrixVibe from RFD 
On a more serious note, will exising 6mbit customers have to call to upgrade? I don't think the webform has this option.
Damn, the office is closed at 4am, this is unacceptable! I will start a 3 page thread on the homepage showcasing how teksavvy has fallen into disrepute !!111111

YES ! so for the month of march nobody have to, but I think [the $25] speed change charge still applies. = = = = = = = = = MY understanding was that you would normally either pay the $95 charge, OR the $25 charge, but never both for the same request. = = = = = = = = =
The $25 'Speed Change' fee applied only to some situations (and not others) before, and that would still hold true now.
Marc commented on this in another thread just a few days ago. »The final word on setup costs?
For example, he said that for DSL 10 or 12 or 16Mb accounts, upgrading to 25Mb would only have had the $25 fee, even BEFORE the promo began (plus of course the modem rental), as THEY had already paid the $95 fee earlier to get into that group of speeds.
Upgrading or Downgrading WITHIN that group of speeds is only $25.
That group of folks gain nothing and lose nothing from the March promo, nor from waiting until later to make a change.
= = = = = = = = =
The ones who stand to save the $95 activation fee are those who are upgrading from plans 6Mb or below into plans 10Mb or above, and of course completely new customers and those switching to TSI DSL 10+ from TSI Cable.
I also get the feeling from the above screenshots that they may be waiving the $50 activation fee for new lower priced DSL plans.
= = = = = = = = =
Marc, have I got this all correct ? |

You mean the competitor that throttles your DSL speed to half its capacity at the hours most people use their connection?
No thanks. |

If you are that disappointed over $20 one time charge when you can save $100 activation fee. Then I guess you should be looking around. Honestly, seems it doesn't take much to disappoint some folks around here. -- If my online experience is enhanced, why are my speeds throttled?? BHell... A Public Futility. |

 alienzzzKill Bell join:2011-02-17 Verdun, QC | reply to TwiztedZero The dryloop is the killer here... shame. A basic 6 mbit connection comes to $50/month after tax. That's already too much... |

 TSI SteveOTSI SteveOPremium join:2009-01-26 Chatham, ON kudos:1 | reply to TwiztedZero Hey Guys. This promo is creating a bit of call volume (as intended ) For the quickest service getting switched over, I ask that interested parties call our main line at 1-877-779-1575. This should minimize any transferring required to get to the proper department to get switched. We have also updated the promo on our main site to reflect this.

 | reply to TwiztedZero If you are an existing user you can expect an email tonight. It will notify you when the online system is ready to handle your upgrades. It will be much better than waiting on the lines.
Look for that |

 | reply to TwiztedZero Got my 16/1 installed on Feb 28th. Oh well, it was worth the install fee, the service has been rock solid with full speed 24/7.  |

 | reply to TSI Tina Can I place an order and say I only want to order if 25/7 actually is available at my address? On the bell site it says it is available if I go to the 25/7 link and do check for availability. If I go to the general bell internet link and do check availability it only lists up to 16/1. I actually did an online chat with bell and they said 25/7 was available at my address.
I have 28/1 Cable now but would like the 7 upload if it will work at my house.
I'm just wondering how far I have to get in and pay if it turns out 25/7 isn't really available?
Thanks,
-Darryl |

Look for that Would this be in the portal as I logged in this morning and the service options didn't even include FTTN speeds at all. since I am a 6M user considering 16/1 etc will that incur a 25 change of speed fee? -- Come join us on EFNET irc.teksavvy.ca #teksavvy for live chat  Java Chat back online @ »teksavvy.kicks-ass.net |

-Darryl I was told by TSI Martin (I believe) that if Bell rejects an activation, you can get a refund, but you best confirm this.
I would like to confirm that this offer is valid for 25/7 - and not just 16Mbit and below. I would also like to ask what the status of that modem issue (modem losing sync) is for 25/7 users - no point in getting this service if you just get stuck with a shaky connection... |
