Looking for cheap cable internet? The majority of households in Toronto would look to either Rogers or Bell for high-speed internet. Rogers is by default the High-Speed internet provider. That is until just recently!
I was a Rogers High-speed customer on the express plan. Which gave me 60Gig of bandwidth a month for a whopping $46.99+tax monthly. This was already too expensive. Especially today where video downloads, Youtube streaming and for those signed up on netflix. Watching a few movies will suck up all your bandwidth. Not too mention the bandwidth taken up by your voip line. Luckily Rogers is only allowed to charge an additional $50 maximum for going over the bandwidth. What!! $50? yes… still too much money in my eyes.

Anyone heard of vintone telecommunications?
TekSavvy is jacking their loyal customers. The price went up to $70 even after taxes and now they want me to pay an extra $9.71 that they “forgot” to charge me two months ago. “It’s a one time adjustment” I was told.
As much as I hate Rogers, I may have to go with them if it’s cheaper.
I am an regular customer Bell Canada (Fibe 6) for over than 10 years. There are numerous times that I have problem on the internet connection. Recently I have to pay $80 more each month, because my family members like watch youtube. I have talked with customer service, if anything they can do (reduce it). They said NOPE. I feel so bad to Bell that they are losing customers. It is time for me to move on to other providers.
