[ON] Disaapointed with Telus mobility

Today I asked to upgrade my iPhone 5s. they told me to go to a store, they reserved for me. The agent never told me Id have to go on a $70 plan monthly. After 2 hours no luck.

Loyalty and retention is the way to deal with early phone upgrades.

Of course your new plan deal(in contract or are you not in contract?) depends on being a stable Telus customer(not a carrier hopper). Along with whatever backdoor deal Apple has to hose people.
Subsidized phones that require a certain minimum price paid per month as well. I think mine was minimum $50 a month, but thats with a data plan.

The new plans on most of the cell carriers suck shit even more since the two year contracts happened.

edit: Iphone5s tear down.

I'm curious why you never asked about all the details involved in the upgrade process. It was one of the first things I asked when I went into a Telus Mobility store and asked about upgrading. I was told I couldn't keep my current plan unless I bought the phone entirely. If I didn't, the cheapest would be $70.
