Rogers Internet Upgrade?
#6
It was reported that Rogers was originally intending to phase out the grandfathered $44.95 5Mbps service. It was grandfathered because it represented a price increase a very short time after extreme was introduced. So, the intention was that eventually everyone would pay and get the $46.95 6Mbps service to rationalize the service.

Yes, people could call in to get the upgrade (if the tech you spoke with understood what it was all about) but it was reported that everyone would get it early this year and everyone would start paying $46.92

But, somewhere along the way, this appears to have put aside after the news that Rogers intends to introduce even higher speeds for extreme. That's probably because they'll rationalize everything then.

This is a big hassle with any plans that are "grandfathered". Look at all the different VIP plans and bundles plans that are offered. Cell services are even WORSE. You sign up for a plan, and it's gone a few months later, and worse, you want some details on the plan and you can't find it any more.
