I originally had an internet plan with Rogers back in 2016 account number ********* which was closed and paid off as I moved overseas in 2017. I have located *** ******** this confirmation to the email. I have since then not used nor have I heard from Roger regarding any issues for this.
I am moving into a new building and saw an internet package in Toronto and saw a promotion I wanted therefore went to purchase this service. Upon selecting it I was promoted to reactivate my old account so I selected to find my forgotten password and gained acsess. Once in I was not able to purchase said plan as there was an outstanding balance dated August 30 2023. Please note the last time I used this account was 2016 and the date I went to purchase the internet was Sept 4 2023 so this makes no sense. I have uploaded pictures of the emails from Rogers to follow the timeline.
Upon spending FOUR hours on the phone (which uou should pay me for) the agent said it seemed to be from a *** number in 2018 however provided 0 details other than that and hung up. Another agent filed a fraud report but both couldn’t locate the cause of the charges and refused to get rid of them. Keep in mind I was living in Australia 2018.
Clearly it’s a money grab and now I can’t even set up my internet so disguisting that they would ***** accounts like this and to be treated the way I was.Business Response

I have been experiencing an internet issue with my rogers service since november of 2022. The issue has been getting worse as time went on as at this time my internet service is terrible: it intermittently cuts on/off all day, everyday to the point where ******** calls or streaming becomes annoying and at times unattainable to even attempt. I have called numerous time since november and more so the last 3-4 months as my internet has been getting worse. I have had numerous rogers techs come to check the connection and do their thing which did nothing at all to resolve the issue. There were mainline issues that were present and apparently fixed which they were not as my internet remained the same. I have called rogers at least 15-20 times through this time period (november 2022-present) and wasted at least 1-2 hours on each of these calls and days missed from work to accommodate techs to come and visit my home, which was more a waste of time above all else.
Another issue that i also had to deal with is the incompetence of returning a device, which i did after receiving the return label from rogers themselves and do this day i am still being charged this after is was send back in March/April of this year! I did contact rogers to make them aware, provided them with the tracking number and was reassured the charges won't happen again which is not the case.

After coming to a resolution I thought the issue was done and over with - but to no surprise it has not. I filed a complaint against rogers September 6, 2023 with bbb case number: ********. After coming to an agreed upon resolution I have not seen the resolution in action. After multiple attempts of contacting rogers and leaving multiple voicemails I have not received any call back. I have attempted to cancel my services multiple times and rogers is incompetent of doing such a simple task. I have now returned my equipment and rogers has received the delivery from ****** ****. I would like my services canceled, my account balance to zero as promised and since my balance was very minimal I was promised that another account would be credited 1 month or service (which has not been applied).

*********You guys are truly and who made me walk 1.5 hours home, cost me income, lots of travel charges, left me stranded, purposely didn't communicate and transferred me endlessly to people who couldn't pick up after the former person's mess. ******** ************ *** *********. August 30 -- I tell Rogers I'm moving and they need to set up an installation at the new address by the morning of September 1 at latest. First lady says no tech is available. She speaks very little English and I don't trust her, call back, and the next guy is bewildered at his co-worker's advice and tells me there are technicians available on August 31. Great, I set an appointment for 10 AM to 12 PM. My fiancee takes an **** there with the old equipment. A technician comes and takes the old equipment to the van. 15 minutes later, my fiancee is wondering where the he is. Disappeared, no communication. She calls him and he ****** asks her what she wants and that he was there for pick-up of equipment only. I spend the next FOUR HOURS on the phone from work while the clowns try to figure out what happened, and they set up an appointment for 2:30 PM on the same day. Meanwhile, I've lost money due to furniture assembly deposits, cleaner deposits, income, and I and my fiancee have all our moving plans in complete shambles and we're extremely stressed out. I take an **** to the rental unit because fiancee has to leave to try making up for all the lost time and re-arrange moving logistics. The technicians spend LITERALLY FOUR HOURS and STILL CAN'T GET IT DONE and LEAVE and they say it's because Rogers set the Internet signal to activate on SEPTEMBER 3RD. I call Rogers, tell them to solve it and call the tech back directly since my phone is dying. They do NOTHING and I'm stranded and have to walk back all the way to my old unit. Then I get on the phone another TWO HOURS and get another non-English worker who COMPLETELY WASTES my time and can't solve ANYTHING again. WASTE OF MONEY.

I cancelled internet services ending march 31 2023 because I moved. I returned my equipment which rogers received april 6 2023. i have a refund of about 120$ which i had over paid. Well rogers keeps sending me a bill for 153$ which is charges from after the equipment was returned. ive called rogers for the past 5 months going on 6 months now about the issue. i sit on hold over an hour each time at least ten times now. Rogers admits that the 153$ is incorrect and admits they owe me the refund, however nothing has happened. Now when i call they tell me they're waiting for a manager to approve the refund. Its been 5 months and they're still sending me this bill. When they owe me money. i am worried about this affecting my credit for missed payment. when this is they're mistake also i want the money they owe me

Rogers Account # *********
After Rogers had a large outage a year ago, I was forced to seek services from another provider.
Once those services were setup, I attempted to reduce/cancel my services with Rogers only to find unreasonable barriers placed in my way by Rogers. I believe this is a direct violation of consumer rights as they continued to bill me despite multiple requests to cancel over multiple months through multiple methods of communication.
Rogers prevents me from downgrading or canceling services in any way other than over the phone, despite constantly advertising that my services can be modified entirely online.
They argue cancelation must be done by phone, yet multiple attempts gave gotten nowhere and they have continued to bill me for services clearly requested to be canceled.
Their staff keeps customers on the phone without actually accomplishing the requested downgrades or cancelation and, if the customer is unwilling to stay on the line getting the run around, the services remain active. Il
If the consumer refuses to pay for services charged after requests to cancel, Rogers temporarily suspends the account and threatens collections if unpaid.
If consumer pays bill, Rogers reinstates services and continues to bill the customer.
Effectively, the only way to reduce or cancel services, as per my experience, is to accept staying on the phone for an indefinite amount of time, until the Rogers employee chooses to do what the customer had requested.
As a Rogers customer of over 25 years, I have been brought to the point of never doing business with them again.
Currently there is a $623 bill to be paid for services, despite multiple attempts to cancel prior to those charges being incurred. They are threatening collections.
They claim the services are fully canceled, however, emails as recently as this morning Aug 22 2023, suggests otherwise.
If any payment is made, I expect I will be billed further.
No charges should exist at this point based on propr requests to cancel.Business Response

Account number: ***********
I have had the same plan on my cellphone for well over a decade. Recently, prior to my travels to the US I changed my plan to ensure I could use my phone there without incident. Upon my return I saw massive charges on my bill. I called the customer services and so did my daughter on my behalf. Hours were spent explaining these erroneous charges to no avail.
It is unacceptable that a plan be changed and that I be reliant on the explanation of benefits from a sales person only to return to a massively inflated bill. Now that the limitations of my new plan have been explained to me I will not use the phone in the US and will use any number of other free options available to me there.
At this time I am asking for a credit of 296.80 dollars to offset these fees.Business Response

Rogers contacted **** clients by e-mail, advising them that the 2 companies are now 1 and that the customer had to register for the Rogers mobility plan. Rogers said that the client would receive the same price they had with ****, the same phone number and the price would be guaranteed for 5 years. I did 2 chats plus several phone calls with Rogers staff (I have the transcripts of the chats outlining exactly what I wanted - no changes. Then I received an e-mail from them about my Rogers account with much higher charges, a different phone number and no details the same as with my **** plan. I contacted them about the “errors” and each time they said they would fix them. The person that I could only contact by phone agreed to everything I wanted but refused to send me an e-mail confirming the details of the “corrected” account. The next e-mail I received had another charge for something I didn’t change and no improvement in the account details. Rogers is recording these false, **** account details because any change in the details of the **** account would enable Rogers to charge whatever they wanted and not be tied to the low-cost 5 year price freeze. Rogers ad ******* me. They did not deliver what they promised. To date I have NOT put Rogers SIM card into my phone, so I am still on my original **** account with my original phone number. If I inserted the SIM card from Rogers, it would appear that I had accepted their ****. I see that Rogers has many similar complaints on the BBB site. I want to cancel everything with Rogers and find an ethical mobile provider. Please help me.
Rogers only provided a partial account number and not a complete number on any of their e-mails with me. The partial account number is *-****-****. The related Rogers phone # that I have not activated is ************. The username they have given me is my e-mail address: ******@******.com.
Important additional updated information. I was only able to get proof of what was discussed on the 2 chats. They kept telling me to phone other numbers and the people I spoke to on the phone refused to sent me in writing the details that had been discussed. They know that I have complained about their actions and this morning I went on their website to cancel the account and the authorization for payment but their site automatically picked up my e-mail address and didn’t allow me to access their in-person chat to cancel my services. That is the only format that would enable me to have proof of the cancellations and their past actions indicate that they would not attest to my cancellations and they would keep the account open to create a delay and to create false charges. Please help me cancel the account and the payment authorization for this service which has never been activated. Thank you for your help.Customer Answer

Your BBB helped me in July and August 2023 (previous case ************** to stop Rogers Mobility from harassing me by changing my phone service and phone number so that they would avoid the 5 year rate freeze. I thought that the problem with Rogers was over. However, on September 22nd, 2023, I received an e-mail from Rogers assigning me a new phone number and attaching charges for that phone number. I did not activate a new number. On October 19, 2023, I received the following e-mail from ****: You've successfully cancelled service for ********** on your **** Mobile account. If you did not initiate this change, please call us at 1************* or dial 611 from your phone. I had not contacted them since August and I did not request the cancellation. I did not phone as their previous phone conversations were lies, so I immediately sent an e-mail to the Office of the President of Rogers AND to the **** e-mail address on ****’s website. My e-mail said: Your e-mail claimed that I had requested my ******* mobility service be cancelled and it has been cancelled. I did not request this. This appears to be a ploy to evade the 5 year rate freeze as you continuously try to change the details of my service without my approval. The BBB and CCTS made it clear to you that I want no changes made to my phone number or to my mobility service when you tried to change my service previously. Restore my service immediately, without any changes, to my phone number - ************ - or the BBB and CCTS will resolve your ********* action as they did before. If this is not resolved to my satisfaction immediately and if any action by you happens again to change details of my mobility service without my approval, a federal and provincial media investigation into ****/Rogers business practices will ensue. Contact me at ******@******.com. ******* **** Neither Rogers nor **** has replied and I have been without phone service since Oct 23, 2023. I am a disabled senior who has a medical monitor requiring phone service to operate. My doctors and the hospital rely on contacting me by telephone. Please help me to permanently stop Rogers/**** from ********* and ******** me with their ********* business practices. Before Rogers took over ****, I had no problem with my phone account. I have an automatic payment set up and my payments have never been late. In addition, I received confirmation from **** that my October 2023 payment had been processed. Thank you for your help.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:
The CCTS has only contacted me to provide a huge amount of info to them, most of what was included, with quotes, in my original complaint. It appears they have not asked the company to provide any proof to validate their cancellation of my phone service. They appear to be protecting the company, not the consumer. The first complaint I submitted was resolved by the BBB, not by the CCTS, who never contacted me with any action. Please help me with a permanent solution to the telecommunications company’s abuse and unfair business practices. Can you suggest another body or ? that can help me, please?
