Re: FTTN 25/10 and 50/10 with Fibe TV + Unlimited Bandwidth said by joeybee:I understand that but they should've seen I have TV too on my account when I called in. But if you would of been on a 7330 SLAM, it would of work.
They also sell 15/10 to people who can't even get VDSL2... The system doesn't always know these things... for some reason. |

Just found it a bit annoying that they didn't know the 50 plan wasn't available when I called in. Well the 50/10 is available for internet... but adding TV to a 50/10 internet won't work for OSLAM. It will work only for 7330. |

 kovy join:2009-03-26 kudos:8 | reply to joeybee said by joeybee:Be careful when switching to the 50/10 plan with FibeTV. Turns out I can't have both. They switched me when I called in but it turned out it was not actually available as I found out when a bell employee on here tried to switch my profile. You're probably on a OSLAM stinger... which highest profil is 55/11... so you'll lose some speed if you watch TV. But for people on 7330 Slam, they don't have problems. |

 | reply to anon_bell Well I just tried to inquire about getting tv, internet and phone in my area but no go as there was no wired internet available and even nearby all they offer is 5 Mbps speeds. I guess I am truly in cable internet/tv country now in the middle of Sarnia. Can other people share what they can get out in Bright's Grove (Sarnia) and other areas of Sarnia ? I checked for services for Elizabeth St. and Wellington near between Indian and Murphy and it isn't good. |

 | reply to anon_bell My speed with Rogers changes the second Rogers rep presses a button on their system. Surprised it takes minutes to hours in Bell's case. |

 kovy join:2009-03-26 kudos:8 | reply to BliZZardX said by BliZZardX:I technically don't qualify for 10 upload anymore, because my stinger line card went bad over the summer and they either moved my wires or the card they switched to gives much lower sync. I can have it set at 10 but it drifts lower. This is on a less than 200 metre loop, but it depends on the line condition too. In general the stingers are very weak.
I'm being offered $82.95/month in the Bell Bundle for 50/10 175GB. $10 unlimited addon is not available because I just have Internet and Wireless. Their home phone is overpriced and I have a TV deal from Rogers that they can't beat.
IMO if you are light user 15/10 60GB on dryloop is still the best value for Bell DSL. If you need unlimited 25/10 dryloop from TSI is still the least expensive at $87/month.
There are new players entering the FTTH scene in Toronto that will poop on everything Bell and Rogers offer. If you are lucky enough to live around there. You can get the unlimited for 30$. |

 | reply to BliZZardX I got it added for FTTH 50/50 for 10$ more but I got 3 services! |

| reply to Guspaz The website is only a rough indicator. If you are really interested, call them and ask. They will have a better idea of what you can get.
Thanks for answering my question about FFTH coaxguy. If 50/50 ever comes to my neighbourhood I will wait to see what Teksavvy has to offer, and if they can't match it I'll be going to Bell. |
