[i hate telus winnipeg]

Tthis is my 2nd Storm, after the last one was replaced due to perpetual OS crashes. Even after fresh installs. I am running the latest and official Telus greatest .122.

Telus will charge $100 to cancel the data plan, or one can wait until December 31st of this year(2009). To boot, I'm a mac owner, and the Pocket mac desktop replacement that Telus promoted when I got the Storm, is garbage. I even paid $200 in after market software to sync business calendar, contacts etc. to same failing results.

My question to all Telus Winnipeg owners: Have you been able to sell your contract? or have you been able to get out of it legally? I run a business and I'm a Mac owner. Right accross the board. No way to go PC. I,ve had the Talk Winnipeg contract for 7 years. As I sit here I contemplate legal action. PLEASE HELP!

I got the Student 35 Blackberry Plan (the new one that's being advertised). I thought it was decent for what I needed.

200 + 50 (bonus) anytime minutes
Unlimited texting
Unlimited social networking (myspace, fb, bb msgnr, windows live)
Nationwide calling to 5 numbers (long distance)
Conference Calling
Call Waiting
Unlimited 6pm Early Nights and Weekends

I might switch to a general data plan after my year or two is up since I'm an avid emailer and do feel that aspect missing

---

Any chance people had luck negotiating free caller id or a small voicemail plan if they've been a long time customer or after they've been in their plan for a year or two? I do hate not having it.

I negotiated the free caller id, voice mail and call forwarding. I called because there was a delay in the system and my phone wasnt activated and they said they had ticketed my account but never and I got really upset and the rep I spoke to offered it to me because of the mess up.

L&R related?

[curmudgeon]

300 Anytime Minutes
Unlimited (Extended) Evenings & Weekends
Canadian LD Home @ $0.10
Voice Mail 3, Call Forward, Call Waiting, Caller ID

$24.90/m after fees and taxes.


I'm thinking about getting a smartphone of some variety but it looks like atm the cheapest data plan is 30$/m for 6gb. That's more than I'd like to spend (and probably more data than I'd use... though I dunno).

Have you tried calling LR? I believe there is a 500mb for $20 option and a $25 for unlimited plan. The $25 unlimited is supposed to expire this week sometime, so I would call soon if you are interested in that.

Yes the rumour is that the $25 unlimited data plan from retentions is going to be expiring on September 21st. Nothing concrete as to what they will be replacing it with.

[curmudgeon]

Thank you for the heads up guys! I'll give 'em a call and see if I get lucky.

[tellmebb]

Insane but I pay for 2 phones (share plan)

Phone 1 - Share 25 - 500 Incoming Minutes,
Phone 2 - Share 10 - Package 15 (Caller ID, Voicemail 10, Unlimited Text Msg), BB Smartphone Data Add-on 30 (6 GB)

I'm definitely paying over $100. How sad...

edit- I just read the last page, what? Unlimited data is it for $25? I need to call client care! Wait, what does the feature show up as on the bill?

L&R related?

Its taken me about 2 years of complaining of Telus's problems, threatening to go to Rogers to get my plan to that. Everything is on there for the 3 year contract.

I called them asking to cancel my contract as for Rogers had offered me something way better (just bull****ting). When they asked me what there offer was, they got me on the spot with no prior research of Rogers plans, so I made something up but kept it semi reasonable...

They came back 5 mins later and had something better to offer.

I got my 50% off my voice plan just last month after they failed to activate something on my 5 fav national numbers. Iv had to call in for 3 months now because iv been charged about 300 a month for long distance (90% of the numbers were my 5 numbers, but they refund everything that was long distance)

So I told them I am going to be very pissed if I see long distance charges this month on my bill. We will see on the 26th....
