ÜberFly Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 So today I get another "unsolicited" promotional text from Rogers regarding some useless service that I'm sure they will ding me more $ for... Anyway, I called Rogers customer service to have them stopped... So the agent says that I don't get charged for them and that they can't stop them, but for and extra $5/month I can set up something to have them stopped... yeah right!! I don't have many complaints with their service (other then the cost that they [and all cell providers in Canada] charge) - I have a very basic package with NO contract, but this is just BS, you can't stop an unsolicited promo text! Bull$hit!! I should have given him the line, I guess i'll go with Telus, Bell or Wind, then as they don't send unsolicited texts!! P Quote

P Peter, I am on a pay and go and I get promo offers texted to me all the time from Telus, plus I get once a month in a mail, about how I should go on a 3 year contract. Quote
ÜberFly Posted June 22, 2010 Author Posted June 22, 2010 Yeah I'm pretty sure they all do it, but it was just an empty threat to see if they would budge!! They're all a big racket!!

kungfool Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Rogers is a criminal organization. They tried to blackmail me into paying a bogus phone bill (phone was not even charged or used during this time period) a couple of years ago. It was ridiculous how they went about it. I don't want to get into it but lets just say I will never have another rogers account as long as I live. Quote

seanbritt Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 This is the problem when there are only a few providers. When I was in the states I used to get the best packages and, for the most part, not many hassles. Okay folks, lets start populating the country so we can create a market big enough for a few more providers! Quote
Jayhad Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 Why do you care about the texts? they don't charge you to recieve them and to delete them it has to be quicker then calling in Quote
ÜberFly Posted June 22, 2010 Author Posted June 22, 2010 It's the "unsolicited" part of the equation that bothers me!! P Why do you care about the texts? they don't charge you to recieve them and to delete them it has to be quicker then calling in Quote
Jayhad Posted June 22, 2010 Posted June 22, 2010 It's the "unsolicited" part of the equation that bothers me!! P only one thing to say about at, "welcome to reality." unsolicited actions are the corner stone of sales, no getting around it Quote
ÜberFly Posted June 22, 2010 Author Posted June 22, 2010 Yeah I know... It just "chaps my hide"! P only one thing to say about at, "welcome to reality." unsolicited actions are the corner stone of sales, no getting around it Quote
