Something about it didn't seem right and I don't think TekSavvy guys were amused when they saw it... Edit: there's the thread »Teksavvy Store in Scarborough

Teddy Boom k kudos Received join:2007-01-29 Toronto, ON kudos:5	reply to Poser It is marginally legitimate. To the best of my understanding (I've asked about it before, but I might have misunderstood the answer) They are a Teksavvy wholesaler, so they are supposed to be rebranding rather than using Teksavvy's name. You are not really a Teksavvy customer exactly when you order with them. In particular, payment goes to them, and they then pay Teksavvy for in bulk for all their customers. By comparison, I'm a Teksavvy reseller, so I use Teksavvy's name all the time. When you sign up with me you are paying Teksavvy directly and you are a full customer. Teksavvy pays me a commission. I believe the reason they can offer big discounts on unlimited is that they only buy 300GB service for those accounts from Teksavvy. As we know, there is no usage meter... And then of course there is the no shipping, which is easy. They buy bulk modems from Teksavvy. It is an okay deal, but mine is better (as in, completely straightforward about everything, knowledgeable about the service, willing to take the time, etc. etc. ). -- electronicsguru.ca

addp009 Premium join:2003-03-08 Kitchener, ON	reply to HiVolt Okay so what's the pros/cons of going to dealers vs directly from Teksavvy. I want to switch to Cable from DSL dryloop, but the cost of new activation + new cable modem cost doesn't make a good ROI. A deal like this makes it a lot more attractive. -- Addp009's Site

Teddy Boom k kudos Received join:2007-01-29 Toronto, ON kudos:5 1 edit	Oh, I didn't notice, is it really $45 off activation? Now that I don't understand... Are they getting much cheaper modems from a third party then? Or are they subsidizing the activation cost some? Is Teksavvy cooperating some to improve the subsidy? I think Teksavvy will give cheaper prices if you buy a lot of modems at one time, but I don't know how that mixes with the activation discount.. I wish they'd tell me this stuff Anyway.. Pros cons? I've never dealt with them specifically, they might be fantastic or completely absent. I don't think you'll ever save more than $40 or so one time, and no savings on the monthly fee. What service are you looking at? -- electronicsguru.ca

XP7051V3 join:2012-12-04	reply to TSI Andre holy crap! I registered with them back in Sept. I pay them about 43 bucks a month via pre-authorized credit card and it shows up as Redbox on my statements. I don't know what to do...or if I should do anything. The store had a GIANT Teksavvy banner on it.

Teddy Boom k kudos Received join:2007-01-29 Toronto, ON kudos:5	reply to addp009 said by addp009: Looking at Cable 18. The monthly cost is still lower than DSL 6 mbps + dryloop fee. So the real issue is what modem you want on that service. Unless money is tight (or you are really frugal, or whatever), you should probably get a Docsis 3 so you'll be forward compatible with new speeds that should be coming soon. At the same time, Docsis 3 is a lot more expensive, and Docsis 2 is okay for 18mbps. Your costs should come to something like: `Service (Express 18 300GB) $39.95 Activation $65.00 Subtotal $104.95 HST $13.64 Total $118.59 Modem $35 or $75, no tax.` For a total of either $153.59 (docsis 2) or $193.59 (docsis 3). If you can beat those all in costs, you are doing very well. -- electronicsguru.ca
