Re: Express only 12mbps?

said by Ridata101:

Next step is to call rogers and start my tech support crusade.

Um no, there is nothing to troubleshoot, as you're getting exactly what you're paying for. If this is not adequate, I would cancel while you can.

You're wrong. I was quoted 25/2 @300GB.

And the quote was wrong. The phone reps see "Express", assume it means 25/2 and tell you that. Except the Express plan with 300GB usage isn't 25/2, it's 12/0.5.

Tech support won't do anything for you, because there isn't anything they can do for you except to tell you exactly what we're telling you.

You'll be given the option of keeping 12/0.5 @300GB, or not.

Don't understand your intransigence my friend. yyzlhr knows what he's talking about as do the rest of us. We're only trying to give you the best advice to work with. Why ask for assistance if you won't consider our advice?

We don't care. It's your Internet and you paying the bill. There's no real world benefit in any of this for us.

Ok, that was a very long conversation with rogers.

Long story short. I now have 25/2 @ 300GB for 45.99 a month and no modem rental for 8 months and no contract.

Have a good day.

Hmm.. yeah, I'd double check that too, as that promo normally only gives you 160gb.

I was on a docsis 2.0 surfboard and when I called to upgrade they offered me this plan.

The most I could get from it was 12/2.

So I went to the rogers store picked up a Docsis 3.0 Hitron then got them to switch my plan to the 45/4 extreme plus package and 55% off my internet for the next 2 years

With that student package it seems the speed varies depending on your region. I didn't have time or care to mess around with that and got upgraded the same night.
