Excuse me, what? My $55 monthly for two phones 3 year contract bill actually costs $160 monthly???

Is this not false advertising? We didn't get any bells and whistles, we picked $0 phones, we don't even have call display. I can see it costing $80-100 monthly. I know rogers tends to screw their customers up the behind with random fees, but you can't charge three times of the advertised cost without an explanation!!!

Chris is currently at the rogers store demanding an explanation. The cost includes both phones, no it's not $55 each. It's $55 for both. Plus system access fees. Okay, fine. But I'm sorry something isn't adding up here! There's no proper breakdown of charges on the bill, either. I know that "charges vary from region to region" but let's be realistic here.

I'm waiting to hear what's going on. Clearly someone isn't being upfront about the true cost. I expected this to a smaller degree, but over $100 in additional charges above and beyond the advertised fee? I can't see more than $30 or $40 in additional unadvertised monthly fees. More than that is outrageous.

I think its a one time activation fee? That's fine but if you're going to throw fees at people the least you can do is give them a proper breakdown on their bill of why it costs so damn much, especially when its three times the advertised cost. Plus it would be good to know how much it will cost in actuality from here on, if indeed this outrageous price reflects a one time activation fee. I hate the cloak and dagger bullshit. Cloak = "regional costs may vary." Instead of telling me that, why not tell me what MY regional costs will be. Is it truly that much harder to specify? All of your regions should have the information that is pertinent to that region! Not some bullshit "you don't get to find out what it costs until you get the bill" bullshit.

Yeah I'm a little pissed. They just served our asses to us on a plate. Now I'm waiting to hear why it's justified. Guaranteed they will explain it away. Now lets hope that $160 is not an ongoing monthly cost!

Hahahahahhahaha. This exact same thing happened to me. When you pay your bill, you're paying into the next month, not the month you're in. It's really weird. I wish I saw this post before your next one though, looks like you've figured it out anyway :P

Good ol' Rogers!

Good ol' rogers, indeed! hehe. I knew it would be more than I expected, just didn't think it would be quite so MUCH more. Oh well. Thank goodness for my two jobs.
