Fair question, but this assumes CNOC is going to win which is by no means guaranteed. That being said, if they do win I would expect this to happen fairly quickly...thinking a few weeks, rather than a few months.

I would hope it would be quicker than that...Start was able to do it in 30 days so I'd hope TSI is prepared and will be able to do the same if given the green light from the CRTC....I am actually glad I hung in there and am anticipating a positive outcome for TSI

You'll have to be more specific. Unless I'm missing something, I believe speed matching is not a problem there.

It's not up to TekSavvy so much, Rogers has to apply new profiles for Tek's customers and they usually do it by area.

I'm wondering when TekSavvy will get TELUS internet 50.

I'm hopeful that they'll win. Otherwise it's just not fair.

Monday is not confirmed for the CNOC release, it's just one possible day it may be released. The CRTC doesn't specify which ones.

Well, the decision for agg came on December 21, 2012, and Start began offering the new speeds as of January 15, 2013.

So probably about the same timeframe if CRTC orders it for disagg.

Since the CRTC granted exclusivity of new speeds as extra incentive for TPIAs to migrate to aggregated sooner rather than later, I would be a little surprised if they turned around on this one... even more so now that there are less than 10 months left until the sunset clause on non-aggregated TPIA.

If the CRTC did not think it made sense to order Rogers to do something for a to-be-discontinued service when there was over two years left, it would make little sense to turn around at the 10 months mark.

So you don't believe it will be favourable to TSI? If it isn't, I can't wait till the end of 2013 for increased upload speeds...

As well, so are we expect this decision tomorrow, this Friday, next week Monday, are can it literally be any day of this week?

Unless the rates are adjusted for aggregated to not be so crazy then I am not looking forward to that move.

Thanks for the heads-up guys! People complain about how long it takes and I feel the same way sometimes, but this decision will determine a substantial shift in $$ and possible marketshare. CRTC has to be very thorough. I wish TSI the best decision possible for their long-term success!

I'm also fearful of what aggregated will bring to consumers. Seems it might bring higher prices and stricter bandwidth restrictions

I just checked the Rogers site, and they are offering these speeds in my area:

25 / 2 / 80 GB cap for $48.99
30 / 10 / 500 GB cap for $51.99
45/ 4 / 150 GB cap for $71.99
150 / 10 / 250 GB cap for $122.99

Where did that second tier come from? It's AWESOME?! More cap then Tek, with 10 times the upload for similar money. When does Tek get that package?

Anyways, The equivalent package that I was on, was Extreme plus, that used to be 28 / 1. And it's not 45/ 4. That's why I was assuming that people getting 28/1 would get bumped.

Your location is listed as Cambridge, ON. If so, then I had no idea Rogers offered such packages in Ontario. In Toronto, the Express plan costs $51.99/month (25/2/80GB). And the Extreme plan costs $64.99/month (35/3/120GB). The second plan you listed for $51.99/month is really good.

Where do you see that? I checked the website and there's no 30/10.. can you take a screenshot?

Ooo... nvm. Apparently Rogers has a geolocation bug, and geolocated me to Newfoundland.

Bell is giving out unlimited on their plans for $30/month... I wonder if Rogers/Bell are actually stepping it up due to tomorrows decision.

30 / 10 / 500 GB for $51 seems like it would be hard for Tek to match....

I'd be worried about people jumping ship for a package like that.
