So, the results came in, what happens now...???

Nothing except waiting until the ISP's crunch the numbers. The decision only came Thursday so after the initial shock, CNOC and the IISP's have to figure out what to do.

TSI Marc had initially said he may have something later this week for plans, but the decision is very complex and long-winded. It will take time to parse.

lots of homework to do now..

Marc - CEO/TekSavvy

Any idea at what type of timeframe migth be reasonable to expect information on changes to package pricing (days, weeks, months). I am curious how this is going to affect the pricing on my 25/10 unlimited VDSL package. Thanks,

David

On the DSL side, probably higher caps.

For cable, some combination of lower caps and higher prices.

I forgot which ISP had been waiving dryloop fees, is that still on?

TSI pleaaaaaase drop the damn dryloop fee, I wanna switch to Voip and drop Bell. You can leave us with crappy upload speeds but at least get rid of the $10/month dry loop.

reply to Rickkins
We are waiting on 2 things;

1) Timetable for switch to aggregated on per POI basis

2) More info about packages + prices when the switch to aggreg is finally made

TSI Marc has given "a few weeks" timetable 2 weeks ago or so and we are still unclear about TSI' intentions about #2 but I did ask about it specifically in the now 46 page thread but did not receive a response. I am hoping only because of the initial hype that they may have missed it and I don't blame em

I am a teksavvy dsl customer for years and have been considering going to Cable in the Cambridge area. With the trend of lowering caps on the cable side I'm actually considering going with Teksavvy instead of Start for 2 reasons. 1) They have a 300gb cap and 2) I'm hoping by signing up now I get grandfathered in at 300gb like those lucky ones who did that signed up with Start. If I wanted a low cap, I would have signed up with Rogers 200gb cap at $45 with an 8 year price guarantee with no contracts.

I remember reading that TekSavvy doesn't do "grandfathering" as it would be unfair to other customers.

i saw a post marc saying that they dont grand father anyone ever so even if you went with 300gb cap right now then when they change to AGG poi it won't matter you'll be set to the new packages automatically.

Given theres never a contract thats fair, month to Month is what it is p:)

Marc has also stated TSI will always try to offer unlimited, so you may see the capped packages get lower packages, or get two tiers there now instead of the sole 300GB we have now and the unlimited package will increase in price (probably significantly, at least $10).

Well the other option is to go over to Acanac and pay the year upfront at $39 per month. At least I'll have unlimited for a year until the dust settles. The $10 per month I'd save will at least cover the modem costs and a bit of the activation fee.

Avoid bell Rogers lines

Ok, great idea, Mb67. Now all we need to do is give Teksavvy a couple of billion dollars and the political clout (ie., additional money for bribes) and this WILL happen.
