I-Gouged (Rogers iPhone Global BC News tv spot)



Uploaded by: umdesch4
Video Description:
The iPhone is coming to Canada, all's not well in the Great White North. Some of the crew of http://iPhoneInCanada.ca get to express their views.
The petition they were talking about is at http://www.ruinediphone.com and there's another one at http://www.petitiononline.com/iPhone99/
For the record, yes, I'm the guy with the t-shirt and the "geek belt".
Some info we talked about in the interviews that didn't make the story:
Paying extra $15-20 for Call display and evenings that start before 9 PM
3 year contract is the longest in the world
There's *no* unlimited option at all, no matter how much you're willing to pay
The new iPhone uses an unknown (but apparently high) amount of data just for background stuff.
Those AT &T minutes are "nationwide" minutes.
Etc, etc, ad infinitum, ad nauseum.
Still, I think they did a good job of warning people to do research.

galvinon, no offense but if it took you "almost a year" to check your damn bill to notice extra charges it's your fault just as much as theirs.
As per Iphone plan pricing, I'm really hoping they'll smarten up and change them
No no no no no no ... ( 2 months ago by Groovyguy451)
No no no no no no no.....no way I would ever go for an iPhone.
My point is we live in this world as it is presently, and we need to be able to simultaneously dream of a better one, while handling the many issues that have real connotations here and now.
A persons well-being in today's society hangs by the penny, and we need to stop these corporate elitists from robbing us!

to Be honest the only reason it took so long for me to discover those charges was because the actual internet usage charged to my account wasnt much more then the service itself (for most of it). It wasnt till I saw a charge of almost $30 that I called them in and discovered that they removed it from my account long ago without my consent or a warning!

Rogers owns Fido. Exact same plans and rates? did you compare the plans?
Comparing the data ... ( 1 month ago by tix4leafs)
Comparing the data plan of (limited) HSPA vs (unlimited) edge is apples and oranges.
With unlimited edge downloads, you would be luck to reach 2-3 gigs in a month, while with HSPA, you could hit that in a couple of hours.
So start understanding the technology before slamming a business for their offerings.
Also, the prices would likely be lower, if Apple wasn't taking their cut too!
