    Well, BB10 was coming to the Playbook. Oh, and then it wasn't!

    Still most unlikely to be true although down the line, I could see carriers not wanting to invest their resources in testing OS's for BB phones they no longer have much interest in.

    I am with Rogers in Ontario. I have a Z10 listed on my account and have not received any email stating anything like this. My fianc is also with Rogers and has a Z10 listed on her account and she has not received an email either.

    Take that for what you want.

    I don't know why everyone is jumping to the conclusion that OP is lying.

    I don't know if what he is saying is factual or not because OP has yet to provide proof, but why is OP's statement so farfetched? Rogers could be doing away with Blackberry Z10 as an end of life product if it doesn't do well.

    If it's anything like OS 6 and OS 7 updates, Rogers might very well stop releasing updates, or at least being slow.

    Maybe because it's clearly bull****? I'm with Rogers... and why would they not release an update that BlackBerry is planning on releasing? ffs logic is strong on these forums...

    Hi Everyone,

    I do not understand why I am getting such hate from such an innocent question. I LOVE BB. I bought shares in the company a long time ago and held the whole time. Crackberry is supposed to address issues, not shoot it down without any proof... I said I would deliver and I did.

    Anyways, story is my friend gets the email (pasted below) and sees this claim that Rogers makes. He gets upset that he got screwed and accepts the offer, and trades in for a MotoX.

    ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT TRYING TO SCREW ANYONE OR TROLL, I JUST WANT ANSWERS LIKE EVERYONE ELSE!!!!

    Also ... he obviously got this email because he asked a specific question. this wasn't some random email. I'll need to check it out myself.

    I don't buy it the Z10 has sold well here in Toronto. This makes zero sense as its the exact same OS they need to test for the Z30. Post the actual email and blur your email name.

    So you think it's fake? Do you think it might be a way to get people to upgrade earlier?

    I never said it was 'fake'... the email is likely very real. The information however, is simply made up to appease the customer who clearly asked about upgrade offers to the Z30 which, btw, Rogers hasn't even stated they would indeed be carrying although, it's pretty much assumed they will be. Nothing more, nothing less.

    So I will be able to get the 10.2 update on Rogers? I've been too scared to try doing it myself and have been waiting for the official release.

    Guys, Rogers has a trade up program that they launched in August. I punched in my z10 into their online quote system at rogers.com/tradeupquote and was offered $150 for my phone.
    Didn't get an email though saying the OS isn't being updated and I had to actively pursue to get the quote versus just receiving an email.
    I guess it is food for thought for when the z30 comes out.

    Thanks for the reassurance. I'm fairly new here so I was pretty rattled by all the hate I got with my question... didn't realize I was speaking blasphemy when I heard then asked about something I was equally upset about.

    People are edgy these days. Posts without any facts or proof, always seem to attract negative attention.. people need to chill out but alas it's the internet.. it won't happen. Just ignore the nonsense, filter the info and move on.

    Thanks! I find it funny that people think I would lie about this especially since I have a Z10. In the end, Alls well that ends well.
