Price Increase - March 2014 EditionCustomers that will see a change are those subscribed to one of our older packages typically called a "Simple Bundle". If you have a combination of Personal TV and High Speed internet 10mbps, 20mbps, BB50, BB100, BB250 or Gigabit Fibre internet you will see a $7.90 rate increase.
Package name: Personal TV + High Speed 10 Personal TV + High Speed 20 Personal TV + BB50 Personal TV + BB100 Personal TV + BB100+ Personal TV + BB250 Personal TV + Gigabit Fibre

New Customer Price** $94.90 N/A $119.90 $129.90 $134.90 $159.90 $159.90
* This is the new price after the increase of the Grandfathered Plans ** This is the current price we sell these services today to new customers
3 channels are also affected by $1.00 increase each. Oasis $3.00 > $4.00 MH1 $5.00 > $6.00 SAB TV $5.00 > $6.00
Other channels or theme packs/groupings of channels are not affected. This also includes customers that may be paying grandfathered rates on some of our older channel bundles.
Customers will have a minimum of 30 day notification but in reality this is closer to 60 days. Vancouver and Manitoba customers are consumption based billing systems meaning they pay after use - their first billing notice will happen from Feb 8th, a second notification from March 8th and charges actually happen from April 8th with the new rates in affect.
Get ready to open your wallets up a bit wider yet again. |

If these are "older packages", what are the equivalent newer packages?
Is Shaw trying to drive people to a newer type of package? |

Shaw is trying to make the older packaging pricing the same, as the newer style packages.
Personal TV instead of Basic TV Premier TV instead of full/classic cable |

Oh, that's what that last "courtesy lube" included with the bill was about... |
