got mine today ordered last SatOrdered mine Friday, received it yesterday. Especially nice since I was told it would take 3-5 business days and it only took 2.
got mine today ordered last Satto all new customers, beware of who you deal with over the phone, Ive had to wrangle a few sales people just to get what was promised to me
Its not hard for a faceless person to say "there is no such option" over the phone.
What can I expect, walked into Rogers store today to get some answers ...
With my corporate $25 plan ....
16GB would cost me $350 to start
$25 for my voiceplan which already includes free voicemail and call display
$30 for the 6GB dataplan
$15 for the Visual Voicemail pack.
$7 extra for evenings after 6pm, with the $30 data plan, you cant get the $20VVM plan
6.95 Rip Off fee
0.50 911 Fee
Total of 84.85 a month! Ridiculous.
Could someone explain why having the GPS using the satellite would cut into my data usage. I know that the iphone uses A-GPS. But if I was connected directly to the sat, why is the data plan being used?
simply put (now that its written in stone), when I ordered I was given an option that cost considerably less than the norm.That's pretty vague. What did you have to say to get what you got, which was what?

Any GPS needs to know where the satellites are. A regular GPS downloads and stores satellite locations from the satellites and stores them in a table, but if you turn the GPS off and move to a new location, it takes a long time (a minute or two) to update the table.
Assisted GPS downloads satellite location tables using data connections, and also has a fallback to cell tower/WiFi triangulation.
The benefit is near instant GPS, plus general location capability where there is no satellite signal.
This is bull! I had 16 months left on mine. All you need is to be eligible for a hardware upgrade (which thankfully I was). I say call up retentions and talk to a rep. Tell them you want to cancel (since that's what the tard told you to do) and they'll be jumping thru hoops. Or at least let you upgrade to the iPhone. That's what I did and I got a voice plan better than any similarly priced one out now.So I went to a Rogers to get the iphone they told me I could not have one since my contract still has 5 months left on it, I was like ok what do I have to do to get one.
So the guy tells me to call Rogers and buy out my contract which will cost me $100, I;m like ok, let's do that, then he tells me if I cancel my contract and then get another contract, they will just give me my old contract back, and I wil not get the iphone. Has anyone ever heard of anything like that before?
This company has the poorest customer service I have ever seen.
Please someone give them some competition, they will smarten up, very fast.
I called Rogers up... just to clear thing out and to see how much it would cost me each month.. blah blah blah... They said I can't get it for $299 it would be 449 or something.... Then they say I must get a voice plan for $30. I have no idea if they are telling the truth.. but either way... I won't be getting an iPhone
it is just wayy too much money to spend each month.... I hope lots of people refuse to get one and Rogers will have to do something about their major rip off pricing.
Rogers is really starting to piss me off. I called them last week and ordered the iPhone and it had been more than a week and I still had not received an e-mail saying my order was shipped. Today, I called them up and they informed me that my order was not processed and I had to place another order because they had given away my phone and I had lost all priority, so I got transfered again only to be told I would have to call back at the end of the week or next week to place another order cause they don't have anymore phones on stock. Boo Apple for launching a product and not beeing ready and boo Rogers for the bad service. Now I might have to wait up to a month before I get my iPhone because of the non-existant stock, and they want to introduce the phone in other countries soon? Why don't they take care of the current countries who offer the phone right now?
