Rogers says “Customers can truly say goodbye to those other cellphone providers”, rolls out new “Ultimate Unlimited Family Plans”


Effective tomorrow Rogers will be rolling out their new Ultimate Unlimited Family plans. From the looks of it there are now 2 of them, both come with unlimited local talk and the “extreme” text messaging. Here are the pricing and features for both:

Voice & Messaging:
- Unlimited Local Talk
- Unlimited Extreme Text Messaging
- Unlimited Picture and Video Messaging
- Unlimited Canada-Wide Member to Member calling
- Unlimited Canada-Wide Talk and Text from your computer with Rogers One Number
- No voicemail or Caller ID
Add on options: $10 Unlimited Canada-wide calling per line
$95.94/month with a 3 year activation (2 lines)
$27.97 Add A Line

Voice & Data:
- Unlimited Local Talk
- Unlimited Extreme Text Messaging
- Unlimited Picture and Video Messaging
- Unlimited Canada-Wide Member to Member calling
- Unlimited Canada-Wide Talk and Text from your computer with Rogers One Number
- 2 GB of Shared Data
- No voicemail or Caller ID
Add on options: $10 Unlimited Canada-wide calling per line
$140.94/month with a 3 year activation (2 lines)
$37.97 Add A Line

Reading over the doc, since this is an unlimited plan, Rogers states that “Overage is eliminated” and that customers who’ll sign up for this will have “Peace of mind that they won’t have a huge monthly bill”. In addition, you’ll receive “One bill for their family’s wireless services” and this also come with some BOGO device options (Buy One, Get One) is actually buy one get up to four at $0.

Rogers seems to be going hard on all these offerings. Earlier today they announced a change in the pricing of their LTE plans, plus as you can see on this internal doc they are going after all the other Unlimited plans that “other” carriers have. Rogers now says that “Customers can truly say goodbye to those other cellphone providers.”

RedBoard also has some info here
(Thanks tipster)

  23. Rogers relies on three things for their profits:
    1) Only enter businesses where they are a monopoly or where ‘competitors’ are partners (see cable, home phone, wireless, MLSE).
    2) Government regulation preventing real competition
    3) stupidity of consumers.

    We can’t really do too much about 1 and 2, but 3 is the fault of anyone stupid enough to sign up for plans like this.

  27. Wow $95.94 per line?(that’s equal to $45 + $2.97 per line) for the same offer which Virgin Mobile has for $35

    and Smartphone plan for $140.94?($67.50 + $2.97 per line) for confined local calling with 2GB. I think their $72.97 plan is better since it comes with 6GB.

    (GRRF: $2.97 NFL, $2.75 Que, $2.35 BC/AB/ON..etc)

    Thus these plans aren’t any better than their current offers.

  34. Does anyone ever work out what they pay Rogers for all their services over a year? Let’s take this family of 4 in the ad.
    Voice and data plan for all member $140.94/month (3 year contract) + ($37.97 x 2) = $216.88. Assuming they want CID and VM on all 4 lines and LD on say 2 lines, then they are at $276.88/month.
    Cable TV and internet: Let’s guessimate about $170/month
    Even without homephone, that is $446/month or over $5300/year.

    With cash flow like that, it is no wonder Rogers thinks they are entitled to obscene pricing.

    • Progress my a*s. How hard is it for them to come down to reasonable world-wide pricing benchmarks? Instead of bullshit flanker brands, cut the crap and give customers what they want. They are very conveniently operating in a highly protected environment and want to give the illusion that their pricing is actually low.

      Obviously they think customers are i****s or they are simply smoking some REALLY bad dope!

  40. Both Koodo and Virgin offer better individual plans that when added to 2 lines would end up cheaper than what Rogers is offering. Wanna make it somewhat interesting Rogers? Take that 94$ price and make it include 6gb shared data, VM + Cid for both lines and no LD fees. Then it would look competitive.

    Thank you

  52. Well, it seems Rogers is starting to compete with Wind and Mobilicity in the landline replacement area. Sure, if these were just mobile plans, we’d have a good laugh, but the inclusion of the Rogers ONE does make sense in the case of bundling (Giving up on home phone VOIP?). If we separate a land line (around 25-30/month), and 2 cell phone lines (around 25-30)/month, it does add up to around 90+ dollar per month. Of course, it was stupid to charge the high end versus the low end of the scale when Wind can offer the same thing for much less, especially the data where 2GB shared is pathetic. They should at least offer 8GB shared to really be competitive.

  68. I’m not really surprised to see no discount and just have added bonus of calling each other for free,, but overall this plan sux,,, 1 GB each? if i add in any of my kids ( i got 3) I would have like nothing,,, I stream music to and from work which is the bulk of my data consumption, still is about 800 MB per week!

  69. hahaha…Rogers thinks we are really stupid. You call that unlimited and put a limit on Data and minutes?? Oh, wait, then you add VM, Display plus extra data. That works out to be $50+ per person. You must be joking!!!

    I guess Rogers is starting to feel the pinch from the small carriers. Looooove the competition!

  72. We’ve actually found a Rogers fan. lolPeoplelol seems to be one of the few Rogers nuthuggers around. I am going to guess she works for Rogers. Seems all you can come up with excuses for Rogers. Yes, Wind uses the 1700mhz band. Not their fault. You think if Rogers and Wind swapped frequencies that Rogers wouldn’t still a*s-rape you? It’s funny to hear from someone that likes getting bent over.

  75. My family has 4 smartphones running on Wind. $160 + tax for unlimited data (with 5GB throttle) + unlimited local, Canada wide, U.S wide calling + unlimited text message to the ENTIRE WORLD + unlimited picture message to Canada and US + all call controlse + voice mail.

    And then there’s $20 discount a month for having 4 lines together (better together savings). LOL @ Rogers.

  78. Rogers Kelly, you are right, however what usually happens is the rogers representative usually renews the commitment without a thought and without customers knowledge or permission. Either they are told to do this or they just don’t bother to keep current commitment. Over the phone people do this all the time and then the front line staff in stores bare the brunt of customers anger.

  80. Rogers’ counts on the illusion that if customers see that it’s a family plan, they’ll think they’re saving money. Should be illegal – biggest scam of our time.

  82. Look if you spend 90%+ of your time in Wind coverage area than get a Wind phone. If you travel outside this area prepare to spend for Away data fees. But then its not going to be much as your still saving $100s per year. Rogers isn’t going to match Wind as too many of their existing customers pay way too much and anytime they change their price they risk “repricing your base” (term used when higher spending customers drop their monthly spending) and their shareholders would rake them over the coals if they did that. So don’t like Rogers don’t buy their services but don’t expect them to see the “light” anytime soon if at all.

  84. I pay $35 a month for unlimited everything from Wind (and it really is unlimited data).

    The only reason any customer should be on Rogers is because they need coverage, in which case I’d be looking hard at Telus and Bell, if this is the best they’ve got.

  85. Even Rogers’ own flanker brand Fido has better plans than this. What about others like Koodo? $50+$5 (unlimited talk+text) and $30 flex data gives you 3 GB.

    Thats CHEAPER AND REQUIRES NO CONTRACT!

    Now I didnt even compare wind/mobilicity, since they are small providers, but I did compare big guy flanker brands (with same / similar) coverage with rogers.

    Dear Rogers, WE ARE NOT AS STUPID AS YOU THINK.
    Sincerely,
    Canadians.

    Stick to Wind , Mobilicity and Public Mobile, if you have them in your area..truly unlimited for a lot less.

    Anyone who falls for this Robbers nonsense deserves to get fleeced and I pity them

  90. I’m paying $25 a month for unlimited data, local calls and text with mobilicity. Also have caller ID included.

    If I ever need to do something outside of that, (going out of zone, long distance, etc.), it cost me pennies and dimes.

    No contracts. No tabs.

    Coverage is by spot inside my apartment, but I’m at the edge of the zone, moving somewhere better this summer. Anyway, I’m not a slave to my phone so I don’t care to be connected 24/7. And I’ve yet to find anywhere else I can’t get a good connection.

  93. this is a good plan but here are the drawbacks:
    1) its too expensive

    2) on a family plan with voice and data with 2 lines it has 2GB of data so with 3 lines it should have 3 GB 4 lines 4GB and 5 lines 5GB

    3) the unlimited text should be unlimited international not just canada… in a country like canada everyone has friends and family outside of canada and we need to stay in touch

    5) at a price point this high, the calling plan should be atleast unlimited calling within north america of not just canada….

    6) over-all opinion on this plan is a good start but stull FAIL

  98. Rogers has proved to consumers they are legalised crooks for years. It is unfortunate that there are still gullable people who will beleive their new claims.
    I have been a Rogers Wireless customer for over 7 years (necessary because of business ties. In this post consumer era, they are among the worst offenders of swamping the public with a massive mix of pricing options; then blaming the consumer because they chose the wrong option, or made the wrong phone call, or got to close to the US border with their phone turned on, or failed to renew at the precise instant their old plan expired, or decided they were being robbed and tried to cancel; etc. etc. etc.
    there is a reason they require a credit card to setup your account. It is so they can charge whatever they want!!
