Rogers provides H phone, I'net, and Cable TV services.

A rep from Rogers called me last Saturday and offered a $10 discount per month for 12 months on my h phone service if I allowed them to run the telephone line off their cable network rather than the existing telephone network.

This seemed like a deal too good to pass up. However, I have been around for a long time (50 years) and am suspicious of a deal that is to good to pass up. Hence I declined.

After that I started thinking why they offer that kind off deal. I concluded that once I am switched over to their cable network, they will cut the existing telephone lines to such a point that it will be expensive to get them reconnected.

I called Telus, another home phone service provider, and enquired about my suspicions about Rogers. They confirmed that was exactly what Rogers does.

I signed up with Telus for a great intro deal. The regular fee is less than Roger reg fees.

What is your opinion on Rogers tactics?
 
It is brilliant business strategy. However, it may backfire if many people do what you did.
 
You sure telus isn't giving you a line also,, We are with bell and they own us ,you have to figure it out all the services you want and see who is cheaper ,they are all the same or close ,Land lines should be gone in a few years anyways ,I think satellite is the way to go.. future.
