our systems are updating as well.. seems Bell recently updated their DB and it created a mismatch.. we added more threads to the systems probing yesterday.
if you check our site, does it now say 50 yet? -- Marc - CEO/TekSavvy |

 | im thinking Cable 30 or DSL 50
the cable 30 should be 35/3 right? |

 | reply to TSI Marc Just wondering if something like this would be possible?
Say I sign up for the 25/10 but plan to purchase the modem could the rental fee be put towards the purchase of the modem, assuming its more than a couple months? |

 kithop join:2011-01-13 Coquitlam, BC | reply to TSI Marc Looking at »www.teksavvy.com/en/why-teksavvy···e-notice now as the TekSavvyCSR Twitter account posted a link, it says the new Telus DSL packages for AB/BC are 50/2, not 50/10. Is that just a typo on the page, or are we really stuck with that paltry upload speed even on the top-tier package? I really just want the fastest upload possible out here, and am ready to call and upgrade if it is indeed 50/10... but it's not worth it at 2Mbps as I'm already on the 25/2 package. -- TekSavvy WEST 25M/2M, Unlimited Bandwidth & Static IP |

 | reply to donkies said by donkies:said by InvalidError:Humm, Quebec rates for 15/10 are $7/month higher than Ontario's even though there is no distinction between QC and ON in tariff rates. yes, this bothers me too! Ontario pays less on pretty much every offering for dsl. I'm guessing TSI does not want their 15/10/300GB VDSL2 to crush their own 20/2/75GB cable in Quebec at the $35/month price point.
The most puzzling price is legacy-DSL costing $1/month MORE than FTTN 7/1 even though legacy-DSL costs $11/month LESS in tariffs... if TSI can somehow afford to offer 7/1/75GB for $26/month despite the $25.47/month tariff rate, they should be able to offer 6/0.8/75GB which has a much lower $14.11/month tariff rate for less than $18/month.
The only way this seems possible is if TSI managed to get a much lower off-tariffs 7/1 FTTN rate... and for TSI's retail rate on 7/1 to be $1 lower than legacy 6/0.8, the off-tariff rate would theoretically need to be even lower than $14.11 for that to make sense, otherwise Legacy should still be cheaper due to lower wholesale rate and smaller bandwidth footprint.
For all the 'thinking' TSI said they have done, there is some seriously weird and suspicious stuff in there. |

| reply to RuralOtt said by RuralOtt:Just got off the phone with the order rep. Moving from 6M to FTTN 15/1. The set up fee is $50. I asked about the $25 discount but she doesn't know anything about it. I also lost the group discount ($2) and the static IP discount ($1). Just a heads-up. It's on the web site.
DSL activation fee discount -$25.00 |

DSL activation fee discount -$25.00 There is also a note on the website that the discount requires you to buy a modem from TSI. Moving from 6/1 to 15/1 in most cases would not require a new modem. -- Developer: Tomato/MLPPP, Linux/MLPPP, etc »fixppp.org |

 | reply to Guspaz said by Guspaz:You're assuming there are no off-tariff deals for FTTN, and that FTTN services don't lead to lower support costs (customers less likely to have issues). I did suggest the possibility of an off-tariff deal but I have a hard time imagining Bell letting it slip anywhere close to $14.11/month.
As for possibly lower support costs, I seriously doubt those costs would account the remainder of the $12/month discrepancy between wholesale costs and retail rates. Lately, there seems to be far many more people complaining about speed and profile issues on FTTN than legacy so I doubt legacy support costs are substantially higher. The bulk of Legacy subscribers are likely like me: they order it and it just works, give or take the occasional Bell mess-up or two just like any order for any tier because most of us land on remotes anyhow. |
