I switched to Rogers cellular after being terribly unhappy with the monstrous immoral telecom beast known as Bell Canada. As a former employee I was appalled at the way they treated their customers. One day they actually encouraged that we instill fear, doubt and uncertainty in our customers if they had internet with another provider (in order to sell more sympatico service).

It now looks like after my Rogers contract is done, I will be ditching them as well. Their Iphone plans are brutal, and the lack of an unlimited data plan is flat out unacceptable for a device such as this. The third world enjoys better cellular rates than Canada and this blatant gouging warrants the huge “fuck you” that is circling round the blog sphere.

Rogers could have scored tons of business from their competitors by simply offering a similar rate to AT&T in the States. Instead they have lost face, embarrased themselves and garnered immense negative press from the tech community round the globe.

P.S. If you offer unlimited plans pronto – people will forgive you.
