In other news, water is wet!
Hopefully the do something about it instead of just watching it go higher
The whole motto of the Rogers merger was "the fuck they gonna do about it?"
Every single authority that had any influence on the merger at all knew this and is making bank because of it. Of course they won't do anything to limit how much money can be sequestered out of the real economy and into this monopoly because they're getting the crumbs.
My partner was on one of Shaw's 0$ per month, by the gig plans. It was easily the most competitive plan on the market at the time. Its no wonder they got shut down so fast.
Now she is being harassed by Rogers 3 calls a week to upgrade her plan. They want her off the 0$ plan so bad lol.
I'm also a Shaw $0 plan. I had an old phone that was still networked logged I got as insurance claim from a 3rd party, so no one wanted to unlock it when I had to switch to Rogers. I complained for about 3 days straight and had to threaten to file a formal CRTC complaint because I didn't choose Rogers. A $32 billion company that bought half a million customers can surely credit my account $26 for a 3rd party unlocking service (and if some online service can unlock any phone, why can't Rogers just do it?) Since then, I've been very vocal at every opportunity to tell Rogers they suck, I know what they're doing, and I'll most likely be forced to get a foreign plan so I don't remain their customer the second my $0 plan becomes a $120/month lowest "deal" plan.
I think they have a note on my file to leave me alone because I will spend an hour telling anyone that tries to communicate with me from that company exactly how I feel about it.
