rogers account # *********
I have been a Rogers customer for years. I went away on vacation from May 20-28th. I live in Canada, travelling to California and Las Vegas. While I was away my phone would not receive or make phone calls. I could not use my phone to send text messages, only able to go on the internet. So upon my return home I was charged a $12.00 fee daily while I was away for ‘Roam Like Home - US’. I contacted Rogers and their incredibly unprofessional members told me there was nothing they could do even though their ROAM LIKE HOME package includes the following -
‘Travel & Roaming
Ready to roam again? Roam Like HomeTM has you covered in 185+ destinations. Use your plan's data, talk and text freely on your next trip for a low daily fee! You can access the 5G network while roaming on select 5G devices in an area where there is 5G coverage.’
I did not receive the services that they are charging me for and basically told me that I’m out of luck. My contract expires in August and will not be renewing but I’m the meantime, I should not be paying for a service that was not received.Business Response

At
Rogers, we value the feedback received from our clients, and would like to
thank ***** for presenting this matter for review.
Client Concerns:
Customer only had access to partial services while roaming outside of our
network.
Customer was charged roaming fees even if they couldn’t benefit of the
service in full.
Customer wanted to receive a credit for the roaming fees.
Investigative Findings:
?Only part of the service was used while roaming (data only). Which support
what the customer is explaining but does not constitute a confirmation that
they did not have access to the full extent of the service.
The customer did not make any attempt to reach our technical support team
for assistance with their issue.
Resolution:
Rogers’ Office of the President successfully contacted the customer on July
5, 2023.
We provided credits as courtesy to offset the roaming charges on the customer’s
last invoice.
We shared best practices while roaming with the customer if they wish to
avoid similar charges in the future.
We explained how the customer can receive technical assistance with their
services while roaming.
Rogers would like to thank?the customer for their co-operation in the
resolution of this concern.Initial Complaint

I was called & offered a great deal from WinBack team which I wasn't receiving. I had to call many times to try and resolve. I was told that Winback team would call me, not sure why? I was thinking ROGER'S was telling them to back peddle out of the offer. I waited but didn't get a call. I did get a call (fraud) from someone claiming they were calling to help me with the cost of my bill. They said all the right things. If I wasn't expecting a call from Winback then I would not have spoke to this person. They said they "changed" my bill and made everything right.... or So I thought. I saw later that an ****** was ordered and all my information was changed. I could no longer access my account. I called Rogers immediately and they told me that the FRAUD department had already taken over and froze my account. I was informed that a certain person had called me and there was a phone # in the notes.I had not and still have not received a call. However, since the FRAUD department has taken over my telephone number managed to get changed. I want to cancel all services and return my device to ROGER'S without penalty. I am already out over $300.00 (my first bill) for something I don't want and now have the HUGE problem of FRAUD on my hands. If the credits would have been honoured from the WINBACK team this whole fiasco would have been completely avoided. This is not my fault.Business Response

Rogers Account #*********.
I had previously (2022) entered into an agreement with Rogers to provide Television, Internet, and home phone services for a total of $171.75 per month with taxes included in that price. March 01st 2023 Rogers basic pricing went up and I was then paying $178.53 per month taxes included. My twelve month discount was set to expire May 2023 and my monthly pricing would be going up $30-50 per month.
On Wednesday April 05th 2023 at approximately 09:44hrs I telephoned Rogers in an effort to negotiate a new monthly discount to keep my payments relatively affordable. I spoke with "Judy" in the retention department. I have the reference and interaction Id's if required. After speaking with "Judy" we had agreed on the exact same services (TV/Internet/Home phone/3 extra boxes/unlisted number/North America Calling) except with an increase in Internet speed to 1.5Gig for a TOTAL cost of $177.39 taxes included. This was an approximate $5 increase over my previous normal payment. This was just under the cost of the new $178.53 increased payment BEFORE the discounts were set to expire. I thought that $177.39 was reasonable on both our ends. I was told all previous services/rental boxes/taxes were included in that price.
Later that day I received an account change notice that advised the new total price was $194.35 per month. I have no idea where this number came from. This number was not agreed upon.
I spent the new few days telephoning different Rogers employees and departments without success. The employees seemed to see the agreed amount of $177.39 noted in the account while also telling me the monthly price was now $194.35. No resolution was ever reached. This pricing was not agreed upon.
On or before Sunday April 09th 2023 I "shared a concern" with Rogers and received notice that the concern had been forwarded to the Escalations Team/Management Office. Today is Sunday May 14th 2023 and I have yet to hear ANYTHING further from Rogers. All the while my account is being billed a non agreed upon amount of $194.35 per month.Business Response

An agreement was made between myself and Rogers communications. Over the last three months Rogers Communications had mostly lived up to their agreement (minor price and services difference than had been agreed upon). Today I received an email from Rogers communications advising that they are going to remove my Ignite TV Bundle discounts commencing September 29th 2023. This will change the agreed upon pricing causing me to pay a significant amount more money for their services. This seems to me to be an agreement made in bad faith by Rogers Communications. Can you please re-open the complaint so that we can again attempt to resolve this issue?Customer Answer

I received a message from you yesterday asking for an update if I had heard from Rogers Communications regarding this complaint.
Anna from Rogers Communications - Office of the President - has in fact telephoned me 2-3 times leaving a voice-mail message. Anna's phone calls always seem to be at around 3:50pm just before the end of her work day. I have telephoned her back (1-866-934-2466 with direct Ext #****) multiple times but she NEVER answers her telephone. I have also left 3-4 voice-mail messages for her. After I leave a voice-mail message Anna will usually call back a few days later. It seems that I am perpetually playing phone tag with someone who is VERY good at the game!
Unfortunately this is the only update that I have at this time! I will continue to attempt to contact Anna.
Thank you!

My Rogers account number is ***********.
I chose to cancel my internet with Rogers. On March 5, I contacted Rogers via chat and notified them that I will be canceling my Internet the following day. I thought everything would have been completed and I didn’t write down anyone’s name, which was my fault. I received a bill the following month which I noticed I over paid I was only supposed to pay for six days but I paid for The whole month. I called on April 11, and I was told that there was no history of me informing them that I was canceling. The agent argued with me on April 11 and she finally put me on hold and said that there was no activity from my modem from March 7 onwards and she would grant me a credit of $86 for my overpayment for the days in March. Today I received another bill which means that that agent did not cancel my service Again and I was told that the credit that she issued me was canceled because there was no evidence that I had chatted on March 5. So Rogers is now telling me that I have to pay for Internet service from March 6 to April 11 when I had switched over to another provider at that time. I am currently asking for my credit of over payment of $86 For the dates of March and I currently have another bill that they gave me from March 6 to April 11 of $56 that I was told I have to so I am asking for those two credits to be granted. ************* * ******* ***** **** *** ****** ***** ** ***** *** *** ***** ***** ****** *** ************* * *** ***** *** * ****** ***** **** ********* * **** ****** ** **** **** * ***** **** ******* *********** *** ** **** * **** **** *** *** *** ******** *** ** *** ****** * **** **** * ***** ******** **** ****** *** **** ***** *** **** ******* *********** ** ** **** **** *** **** ***** **** *** ****** ** ********* **** *** **** *** *** ** **** ************ I notified them that I would be cancelling and it’s my job to prove it, when I didn’t receive any confirmation. **** *** **** ** ***** *** ** **** ******** * ***** ***** ***** ** *** ***** *** ** ******** *** ********** ********** ********** ********* **** ** ***** ******** ********* ***** ** *** ********* ** ***** *** ** *****

rogers account number ********
I have placed multiple calls and spent around 4-5hrs in phone with Rogers customer representative regarding issue with Rogers Ignite internet.
I was on Rogers ignite 500Mbps plan and recently switched to 1.5Gbps plan since I had some issues with working in large excel files (~50+Mb) that was affecting my day to day activities in work. After upgrading to new plan the internet issues got worst, previously I was getting close to 400-500Mbps and now I'm getting only 100-200Mbps speed. This is greatly affecting my work and it is very hard for me work from home.
Rogers sent technicians two times. First technician said the problem was because I split the wifi into two different channels 2.4G and 5G which the second senior technician later confirmed was not the problem. Also the second technician said modem is working fine it is getting 2Gpbs/50Mbps (download/upload) internet speed but our devices (laptop/phone) is getting only ~200Mbps/50Mbps which did not make any sense to him. He also mentioned the problem with working in remote files is could be because of the upload speed which is only 50Mbps, but problem with working in remote files become worse after switching to 1.5G plan which has better upload speed compare to previous plan which had max of 30Mbps upload speed.
I called Rogers today to explain the whole situation and wanting to get out of the contract because of the speed issues affecting my work and they asked me to early termination fee of about 15$/per month for 16 months and no way they could waive of the early termination fee even though the problem is at their end.Customer Answer

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because of incorrect claims made by Rogers.Here is Rogers response and my rebuttal.
[Rogers] Our technical support team has investigated their claim and have found that the correct speeds are being offered.
Rogers] Technicians also visited the home location and have found no fault with the service.
[My response]
- Above response is a complete ***. To prove that, over the weekend I compared the wifi speed that I'm getting in my laptop at my sisters place (******** **** **************************************) and I was able to get 500+ Mbps and the same device is getting ~130 Mbps at my home (******** **** *****************************).
- If there is no problem with service, can Rogers explain why I'm getting 130Mbps at my home and 500+Mbps with different Wifi network?
Rogers] We confirmed that large amounts of data is being used on a regular basis.
- What an absurd claim. Anyone with little technical knowledge will know how the above statement is ridiculous. I never complained of not getting internet or streaming service is buffering , my claim is I'm not receiving the speed Rogers committed to its customer (expecting 500Mbps over wifi in laptop)- I have 2x WiFi Camera / TV for streaming / 2x Laptop used for WFH / 2x Mobile / Multiple smart devices and obviously the data usage will be higher.
I'm so much dissatisfied with the Rogers response. They don't acknowledge the problem nor listen to your concerns which is frustrating. Main reason for signing up with tire one service provider like Rogers is because of the quality of service and customer support. After being with Rogers for past few month I learnt they lack both in quality service and customer service.
All I'm asking is relive me from the internet service without early termination fee and Rogers is unable to honor the request. I sincerely request Rogers to relieve me from the contract.

Rogers Account Number is *********
By law the contracts for cellphone now are for 24 months. At the time of purchase Rogers offers free tablet account add-ons. The catch is that the plan for the account promotion is only 15 months.

Account:
*********I'm continuosly having a problem with Rogers Communications. I started a plan with them in April 2021 at the time I was offered a tablet at no charge, I accepted, but to my amazement I didn't know I had to pay for an extra line for the tablet. I let it go, then in December 2022 Rogers decided that it was best to add an extra to my plan without my knowledge consent or authorization, they added roaming to my plan, which again I did NOT authorize as for, consent to having it added to my plan, so I had to waste an hour of my time correcting Rogers ********* attempt at adding to my plan. I still have not been compensated for my time in having to contact Rogers to have this taken off the plan.
NOW after my agreement with Rogers ended on April 12 2023, I did not want to continue with Rogers, but they don't understand when you say CANCEL everything I don't want to continue with Rogers because of the bad service and ********* attempt to charge my plan for a add on I didn't ask for. NOW I reluctantly paid for April's coverage for the plan, which is 95 plus tax, equals 96.05, but NOW Rogers is trying to charge me for the tablet that was given to me as part of my plan in April 2021, I REFUSE to pay this as this was NOT the agreement in April 2021.
Please inform rogers to take this off the plan and also to compensate me for my time for having to waste my time to correct Rogers for attempting to *********** add roaming to the service that I didn't ask for. I am currently setting up with another cell phone provider as Rogers doesn't 'seem to understand when someone says CANCEL something they just ignore you. Once I have another cell phone provider in place I will NO LONGER be using Rogers and I WILL NOT CALL AGAIN to inform them of this.
I would like to have Rogers compensate me for my time and also apologize for again *********** adding something to my bill that was not agreed upon. I WILL NOT WASTE MY TIME ON HOLD WITH ROGERS ANYTIME IN THE FUTURE AGAIN

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:Rogers called me ONCE, I asked them to hold on for a minute as I was with someone and when I returned to the phone call Rogers hung up. I guess Rogers feels it doesn't have to wait a minute or 2 but expects customers to wait on hold for over an hour for them, which I guess is expected from Rogers. Rogers never sent me any email either, if Rogers can provide the read reciept to show I read and accepted the email, but Rogers can't, ***** ****** ****
Oh and a little update, when Rogers sent me another bill, the ********** so called "finance charge" went from $2.50 to $10.00, as you can see in the pictures ********, and again this WILL NEVER BE PAID, and AGAIN, Rogers GAVE ME THIS TABLET as part of my contract starting in April 2021 and ending in April 2023 free of charge and during that 2 year contract NO WHERE in the contract was a charged a finance charge by Rogers for the tablet. Does Rogers think "you know, the contract is over, lets charge the customer a finance charge for the tablet 2 years after we GAVE him the tablet" AGAIN THIS finance charge will NEVER BE PAID NOW OR ANYTIME IN THE FUTURE!!!!!!!!!!!! for a tablet that was GIVEN to me with my contract in April 12th 2021 to April 12th 2023. If Rogers thinks this is going to be paid IT WON'T and can CANCEL THE SERVICE ANYTIME. I won't put up with the ********* *** ********* from Rogers.
I still expect to be compensated for my time having to correct the ********** charge Rogers attempted to add to my plan in December 2022 of the "roaming charge" that I never gave consent to, never asked for, never wanted to be added to my plan, but Rogers just added anyways. so I had to waste my time on the phone on hold correcting this ********* charge added by Rogers. I won't ask again, and I won't waste my time on the phone with Rogers AGAIN about this issue. That is my response, Rogers KNOWS the "finance charge" is ********** and without merit but with a big company such as Rogers, they seem to think they can do what they want without recourse. Rogers can answer to the Better Business Bureau about my complaint there is no need in contacting me now or in the future. If Rogers DOES'NT REMOVE THE ********** FINANCE CHARGE I will consider any business from this day forward as being DONE, I will not deal with Rogers again!!!!!!!! If the ********** charge is NOT REMOVED by the time I go to pay the monthly charge by May 27th 2023, NOTHING will be paid at all, I will consider the ANY amount owed as payment of compensation from Rogers, and also I will consider the service to be done and over and nothing will be paid to Rogers from May 27th 2023 onward. I hope this is easier for Rogers to understand as they don't understand anything else.
My complaint is with the BBB and Rogers can reply here and ONLY here with it's response, no need in contacting me as I don't have time to waste to resolve this matter AGAIN.
So, Rogers can cancel the ********** charge and correct the account by May 27th 2023 if it's not I will consider the account closed and any amount owing to be compensation for my time in correcting the FIRST ********** charge made by Rogers.
Sincerely,
****** ******Business Response
