Rogers new Cell plans - what a joke It's good that they're finally offering unlimited calling and texting, but WTF is up with that pricing? And I love how they've eliminated the 1 or 2 year contract options for the "Talk, Text and Internet" plans - you've got to be monthly, or on a 3 year term. »mobilesyrup.com/2012/10/31/roger···t-plans/ »mobilesyrup.com/2012/11/06/compl···ber-7th/

J E F F Whatta Ya Think About Dat? Premium join:2004-04-01 Kitchener, ON kudos:1 Reviews: ·Rogers Portable .. ·WIND Mobile ·Rogers Hi-Speed ·magicjack.com	Yeah, it's not really worth buying any contract phones now. But this is what people wanted. No one understands ECF's, so now those of us who understand the word "subsidized" are going to get it. I am hoping that the BB10 is a good device, and that they'll be with Wind Mobile, because it will be like "Rogers, c-ya later!" -- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. - Albert Einstein

HiVolt Premium join:2000-12-28 Toronto, ON kudos:17	reply to bt These prices are insane. And still none include basic Caller ID... What a joke... Not everyone cares for voicemail, but I'm sure everyone wants Caller ID to see who's calling them.

Not everyone cares for voicemail, but I'm sure everyone wants Caller ID to see who's calling them. Caller ID should be included in every cell plan. Who the hell wants to see "Unknown" every time someone calls? The worst part is it costs like 7 or 8 bucks to add it.

Pesterd @rogers.com	reply to HiVolt Caller ID is a free service/add-on in Asia/Middle East... Fork over $$ in N.America. I am not sure about EU.

LondonOntGuy join:2004-05-12 London, ON	reply to bt Why does this surprise anyone? Canadian cell companies only see consumers as cash cows to milk dry. I don't have a cell, and at these prices and terms, I certainly have no plans to get one anytime soon.

pulp46 Premium join:2003-01-28	Wow, my plan charged me something like 3$ a pic after the first 5 or so. Thank god for iMessages, I don't bother sending pix/video to Blackberry/Android contacts. LOL

bt join:2009-02-26 canada kudos:1 Reviews: ·Start Communicat..	reply to bt Looks like Bell and Telus are jumping on the bandwagon: »mobilesyrup.com/2012/11/07/bell-···55month/ »mobilesyrup.com/2012/11/07/telus···le-data/ Bell's are about the same as Rogers', but with 10 hours of Mobile TV. Telus' cost $5 more, but come with VM and Caller ID instead of it being an extra like with Rogers and Bell (also family calling, call waiting and conference calling).

Sure but AT&T likes to charge $20 a month for unlimited text messaging. Aside from the two year contracts, American offerings from the big carriers are pretty much on par with what we have in Canada now.

pulp46 Premium join:2003-01-28	reply to bt Rogers wouldn't auto-upgrade me on those free Messages deal, eh? LOL Meaning, I could start sending pix and video to people on Blackberries via text and not be charge for going over my allotted 5 or whatever it is, maybe 10. I don't see why not, every plan now has Unlimited Messages from what I see. Currently, I'm on the 6 Gig for 30$ plan + the smallest phone package you can have. I don't use my iP5 as a phone, maybe 40 seconds a month on air, I use it as a computer.
