Re: FTTN 25/10 and 50/10 with Fibe TV + Unlimited Bandwidth

I am getting 25x10 from bell for 32.47 with a 60G limit.
So $49 is no deal
Just call up Bell and bitch to them.
they will reduce the price.

So if you live in an older house, you are SOL to get fibre to your home?

It has nothing to do with the age of the home, FTTH will eventually be everywhere. Its currently only being deployed in newer sub divisions, and high density areas of Quebec and Toronto.

I believe they are bringing FTTH to old houses around Quebec City and Montreal. I haven't seen or heard anything for the Toronto area.

I was able to get unlimited added to my 25/10 plan for $10/month without having 3 services with Bell. So I am paying $60/month, way cheaper than TSI top tier DSL unlimited.

So whats your plan costing you? 116.95 a month for unlimited 50/10? Seems scarily expensive..!

Not true.

50/10 = FTTN
50/50 = FTTH

The rules for add-ons like data buckets/unlimited are different. Existing customer's are not eligible for promos on the base plans. I'm not saying it can't change, this is just how it's been for awhile.

AH ok!

For $79.99 I can get 100/100 unmetered where I'm moving in a few years including tax, so pass.

I got mine bumped up to the 50/10 as well . . . it changed to 25/10 within minutes, but I am still waiting to get the 50 speeds.

Probably because its the weekend. A user by the name of Bellmtl PM'd me and offered to change the profile, and he did

Try that, if he is unavailable, PM me and I will see if my buddy who is a field tech can find a minute to do it.

They also discounted the POTS basic line $5, discounted my satellite $30 and added the $10 unlimited bandwidth. So all in all, it makes the jump to 50/10 $54.99 a month for the service and bandwidth taking into account the discounts.

Thanks to a off duty tech on here, my profile was already changed and this is what im getting...

I was told the same thing with regards to the $30. They said it will show as 30 but will be discounted to 10.

No advertisement for unlimited option.
I wonder how Rogers will counter this option. Will they also now give unlimited option for $30? Lets see.

I am on as well. I started with the 25/10 less than 40 days ago. If they wont give it to me for $49.99, I will give my notice.

Do they advertise a 50/50 package? Or is that something only 'special' people on the forum have access to?
