Re: [DSL] NEW RATES - Bell Québec - Update Oh, bonus! Yay! Either way, I'm happy.
I compared your new rates to Ebox's new rates. Yours are aggressive indeed. Ebox is offering free dry-loop on all tiers right off the bat though. The potential savings isn't that great in my opinion, only about 2$ for the DSL15/250. But then when the customer has POTS, he pays a bit more with Ebox than with TSI. And then, the customer pays even more with Ebox compared to TSI's TekTalk due to free dry-loop there. My guess is you've been looking at Ebox's rates too, right? You've been a naughty boy, you have!

Bravo and you managed to do it without gouging people $0.50/GB with no max overage. It took some cojones. |

im in the same boat! Very happy to hear this!
Thanks Marc!
I might consider the 50/10 if price is right. Otherwise dont feel like it's worth jumping to 25 from 16 as it isnt a huge difference. |

Maybe I missed something. I don't quite understand this? How does having POTS make the above outlined plans cheaper? |

Providers like Ebox are charging the same rate whether you have a wet loop or not, TSI is giving us enough of a break to get the dry loop or pay less by using our wet loops. |
|
| Yea the price is definately A-OK! For people like myself who do have a POTS.
I thought I missed an added incentive for people that aren't going to be getting the FREE DRYLOOP.
I get it the price of the dryloop is incorporated in the savings.
Teksavvy 0wns!
now just need to see what Marc has planned for the 50/10 |
|
| Compare DSL15/250-300 with/without dry-loop, Ebox and TSI, include TekTalk for TSI's offering. Ebox price is same with/without dry-loop. TSI charges dry-loop for stand-alone DSL, but does not charge dry-loop when combined with TekTalk.
Ebox
44.95 DSL15/250, includes dry-loop
Add VOIP price on top, price above same
69.90
TSI
39.99 + 7.25 DSL15/300, 47.24, 2.29 more than Ebox dry-loop
Add POTS, subtract 7.25 dry-loop
Add TekTalk, subtract 7.25 dry-loop
64.99 for POTS, 4.91 less than Ebox
62.94 for TekTalk, 6.96 less than Ebox
Only instance where Ebox is cheaper is dry-loop stand-alone. Otherwise, TSI cheaper due to removal of dry-loop fee from addition of POTS or TekTalk.
I'll say it again, Marc, smart move to offer free dry-loop for TekTalk.

Why still no prices for 50?  |

| reply to TSI Marc
Hi there,
With the price drop, maybe I can get the 25mpbs bump, but I guess my area won't be having that soon as this sector can only go to 16 mpbs and the rental of the modem (again), doesn't really make it worth it.

said by TSI Marc:25/10 mbps (FTTN) Requires VDSL modem
300 Gigs - $44.99
Illimité/Unlimited - $64.99
How much is the rental going to cost around?
What if I were able to get my hands onto one, by any chance can it get waived?
Thanks |

Will the DSl 6.0/0.8 - > 7/1 FTTN incur changes to users? |
|
1 edit | reply to TSI Marc
i'm guessing yes. i looked at their website and any time a speed change is done, there are fees involved.
speed change fee - 20$
start up fee - 95$
DSL activation fee discount - -20$
it's enough to put me off 7mb fttn.
the 25/10 is interesting tho - 8$ (whoa big drop indeed) lower charge monthly and i read tsi may put up their own modem for purchase. but again, on a budget, the total start up costs with purchase of modem is prohibitive for me.
maybe we'll luck out and for 7mb fttn something reasonable will happen.
i'm trying to remember to do speedtests - i seem to be only getting 5.2mb/630 on my 6/800 line. i'll pop in an inquiry to the direct forum if this is what i'm consistently getting over time. |

So there is no more free dryloop ?
So EB offer is better for people who don't need phone line at home as they include free dryloop and there unlimited period is for halfday 2am to 2 pm.
BTW if people were taking dryloop it was because they didn't need any home phone line so I really don't understand TSI offer :S |

They are allowed to sell them now, Ebox has the Sagecom for $120 so I imagine TS will be similar

Free dry-loop for TekTalk makes a lot of sense if you want to get rid of your Bell/Videotron phone line but still need a phone line. Lots of TSI customers like that. It's even an incentive to switch to TSI DSL from whatever you got. This is a much smarter move than just free dry-loop, if you consider my price comparison above.
