A friend has a rogers post paid account, 500mb. What's the current overage rate for rogers? We are working on a project and he's about to go over his 500mb and his month ends in a few days....

thanks in advance.
 
I'm always curious how those with a phone can't seem to make calls....


sorry, what?
we're working on a project? Shall I READ him all the documents on the phone? We are in different countries. Shall I pay long distance to read him all the documents on the phone? :)

No, that your friend can't just pick up his phone and call Rogers and ask them. Seems like a 2 minute call would be quicker that waiting for replies on here, but that's just me.

He can, yes... I asked here in the mean time. But yeah, it's 9:30 here (in my time zone). 11:30 where he is...I'll assume he'll wait til tomorrow? Meanwhile, I want to know how much HE will be spending to continue to work on the project with me.

But yeah, otherwise aren't MANY of the questions here things that can be answered by the carrier? But then, it's not my carrier...

Yup, which goes back to my first point why people can't just pick up the phone and call their carrier for questions like this.

Why people cant just pick up the phone and call the carrier after business hours?? Well seeing how its the carriers doing.. why cant you pick up the phone call and ask them yourself?
 
It's not my carrier, nor even my country.

thats my point.. you told him that.. and stated it was 11:30 his time.. and he said "it brings me back to my original point.. why cant he call blah blah blah"
"well because its 11:30..and after business hours.. etc etc"

i was just being a smart A. and asking him why cant he call and ask that question.. because the reason your friend cant call is due to their business hours.

Gotcha. And now it's 8 hours later, and he knows the answer, and I know the answer. I just was feeling bad that HE'D have to pay an overage... and wondering how much... thanks man.
