Rogers giving $100 off Bold 9900, Torch 9810 and PlayBook until September 30th


You can either take this as a sign of how sales are doing, or that Rogers has put together a stunning new promo. Until September 30th the BlackBerry Bold 9900, BlackBerry Torch 9810 and the BlackBerry PlayBook can be yours for $100 cheaper. The fine print says this is only for new activations and the $100 will be credited to you on your 2nd wireless bill. So this now takes the Bold 9900 and the 9810 to $99.99 on a 3-year.

(Thanks tipster!)

  1. These prices are better, and probably was done because Telus and Bell had better prices.

  2. Didn’t someone on mobilesyrup say give it a month and they’ll drop to $99 when they announced it for $250?

    • @Xperienc3 No chance.
      @Omar It’s probably an in-store promotion.

  5. Just Rogers getting it’s contract pricing in line with Telus and Bell. The 9900 is actually selling very well, the 9810 not as much.

  7. I saw this in the 24 paper this morning, but not sure if it actually applies to the Playbook. Doesn’t have pricing beside it, it’s the wifi version so there’s no contracts available and it says “Just Released Blackberry Smartphones”.

    Think the Playbook is just chilling in the background. Wanted to be part of the photoshoot.

  8. It is a promotion done by Rogers Wireless Dealer. Just like how Futureshop and Bestbuy knock off $$ on activations. This is not done by Rogers HQ so upgrading pricing with still be the same

    • What phone did you have previously? How many months did you have left on your contract?

  16. Given the mega-shift to QNX and/or Android on BBerry devices next year, the current lineup will have to be cheap indeed before I would plunk down any money for the last hurrah of BBOS.

  20. The 100 off is only if you buy a PlayBook at the same time as either a bold or Torch. Heads up

  21. Wrong. I work for a Rogers dealership. The computer automatically takes the $100 off in-store. 3 year, new activations only.
