Fraud
I've been paying for a Rogers Pay-As-You-Go cell phone for my mother for about 6 years. She is elderly and this allows her to have a "lifeline" if she is out of the house, but she does not use the phone very often. A couple of days ago, she tried to make a call, but it indicated there was zero balance.
Checking the Rogers web site, it showed that up to early February, 2010, there was about $109 on the phone, and I had it set to top-up from my bank account every two weeks. In early February, Rogers, without explanation, cancelled the entire balance. Furthermore, they happily accepted the three payments from my bank account made since then, but cancelled this balance the very next day.
I contacted Rogers by phone, but they simply put me on hold for 20 minutes then hung up on me. Next, I tried their web "customer service" and was informed that they had changed the minimum top up to $20. They had my mailing address, my e-mail and the number of the cell phone, but made the conscious choice to not inform their customer so that they could steal the $109 on the phone account, and furthermore accepted the top-ups three times and immediately cancelled the balance without informing their customer.
Poor customer service can only be pursued as a civil matter, but accepting these three payments and failing to provide any service whatsoever for these payments transforms this to fraud - a criminal matter. That is how I will pursue this.

Check your Statement - They habitually OVER BILL!
The moral of this story is: Check your statement, and check it completely. Rogers Wireless is ohhh so sneaky!<br />
<br />
Most Recently. <br />
I purchased an iphone on contract from Rogers. The phone broke and aftera two week delay (they cited replacement shortages), the sent me a broken replacement. <br />
<br />
I called, complained, and they sent out a replacement for the replacement by Canada Post. I promptly packed the broken replacement in the same box and shipped it back the way I got it. Turns out, they claim they never received the phone and according to their records, the packing slip was for Purolator or some other delivery method. <br />
<br />
They sent me a letter saying they hadn't received their broken replacement, and would bill me up to $600. if not received within 15 days. After 15 days, they charged my account $750. Yes, that's a $750 charge for a phone that never worked, which I sent back to them! <br />
<br />
The real rub here is that I have no choice but to pay for a broken phone that I never wanted, and gave back to them too, in order to keep my phone service connected. lol. <br />
<br />
Before this latest incident, Rogers has been billing me monthly for text messaging. Some months, my text messaging fees were as high as $125., and I averaged about $80/month in text charges over a two year period. The irony is, I had added the unlimited text messaging service to my plan and they were also charging me monthly for unlimited text messaging. Approximately every three or four months I would have to call Rogers and spend an hour going over my statements with them, and request a refund for the overcharges. And then like clockwork I would call back again and complain because they conveniently forgot to adjust the interest and tax charges accordingly. This went on for nearly two years. No kidding. In total, nearly $2, 000 in text messaging overcharges. <br />
<br />
There's some good news to this story though. Since Roger's wireless tipped me off to the fact that Rogers is proned to overbilling, I also took a look at my Rogers Cable Television Bill and discovered that they've been charging me for additional cable outlets that don't exist, and they've been charging me these fees for over three years. <br />
<br />
PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR BILLS PEOPLE!

Not the package I signed up for
This is an ongoing story. Rogers promised me one account and then didn't deliver. Every month, my bill is about double what it should be. Every month, I have to spend at least an hour on the phone re-telling the story, and then finally someone with a modicum of customer service steps in to put things right - at least until the next month's billing when the story starts all over again.
These problems are in addition to the technical support issues (the phone didn't work, couldn't port the number, security codes weren't burnt into the phone) and the hours spent trying to re-explain this to the latest customer support rep.
Then yesterday: "We'll have a supervisor call you in 2 - 4 hours. Guaranteed" Guess what: it's over a day later and no supervisor call.
As of today - still no resolution.
Most of the people I've dealt with have been nice, but relatively useless.

Bait and Switch
I spoke with a Rogers Wireless rep this morning about "saving money" on their Family Plan. The rep assured me there was no renewal of the term. When I went to the Rogers Wireless store to complete the transaction, I was told I would have to renew my contract for three years. I left the store and called Rogers Wireless again, this time I was told I would only have to agree to a three year data plan for both phones on the Family Plan. As we worked the numbers it was obvious no money would be saved by using the "Save money with Rogers Wireless Family Plans" as stated on the web site and promised by Rogers Wireless Reps. The $100 dollar plan would cost $40 dollars more than simply using separate plans. The obligatory three year term comes with no subsidised phone, accessory or any other value added consumable. And all other "Competitors" have exactly the same tricks and prices?
This is price fixing plain and simple. This is bait and switching and misleading advertising. Should I call the police? our Government is turning a blind eye.

Exta false charges
I was outside Canada until September 4th. I activated my cell phone exactly at 4pm same day.
When I received the bill for my wireless service a was shocked there was 43 sms sent from Canada to US. I called them and I said I didn't send them. I asked for the date of sending IT WAS SEPTEMBER 3rd. I was really shocked. My phone and my SIM card were with me all the time. I was able to cancel these charges, however it happened again in the next billing cycle but on a smaller scale. I got now only 4 sms from Canada to US TO THE SAME NUMBER. I called them again and was able to cancel it. HOWEVER, they said it is the last time they will do it.
What the heck is wrong with them, first they charge me for services when I was outside CANADA and then the same thing happen and they tell me it is my responsiblity. THEY ARE TOTALLY ILLOGICAL they want to charge me for service I didn't do. WHICH is very clear that is there own fault.
IMAGINE, I WAS OUTSIDE CANADA and SOMEHOW 43 sms were sent using my cell phone.
HORRIBLE CUSTOMER service and HORRIBLE Company. AVOID it if you can.

Horrible customer service
I was planning a move to another area in Ontario when I filled out an online form to inform Rogers of my moving date which would switch my service to my new residence. I completed this one month prior to my move. I then received an e-mail from them stating that they did not have telephone service in the new area but, they are able to offer us long distance service. I contacted Bell and arranged my home phone service with them.
The day we were moving the phone was still connected in my apartment. I called Rogers to ask why it had not been disconnected. The woman on the phone stated that they had no record of a disconnection notice. I told her that I was staring at the e-mail and relayed the information to her that I had been sent. She apologized and directed me to another department because she was not able to deal with the situation. I had the exact conversation with 3 different sales representatives! By the fourth transfer, I was quite irritated. I explained the situation again and said that I know it is not her fault but this is rediculous. I again received an apology and she said that she AGAIN needed to transfer me. All I wanted to do was shut off my phone! After a total of 6 times being transfered, the customer service rep informed me that I would have to pay for my service for 10 more days because they require 10 days notice prior to service cancellation. I lost my mind! Even though I have the e-mail stating that they received my cancellation notice, and it was a mistake on their part, I was still required to pay!
I would avoid rogers at all costs! I will never use that company again!

Cancellation
Over 4 hours spent trying to get hold of the cancellation department. Absoultly ridiculous. A sytem structured to prevent people from cancelling. After 13yrs with Rogers and basically a satisfied customer who paid every bill in full and early, I WILL NEVER GIVE THIS COMPANY MY BUSINESS AGAIN.

customer service
I recently signed new wireless plan from a Rogers phone rep. I spent 18 minutes on the phone getting the plan and cost explained in detail because it would be a corporate billing plan. Two days later my blackberry can as promised via ups, but the plan and cost did not jive with what was discribed to me over the phone. I called back to customer service and they could not trace back who the person that talked me to verify the plan and cost, I find this very strange, poor business practice, extremely poor management, misleading, phone taping is only used if its in Rogers favor and not in the customers. Has anybody else tried to complain about Rogers through the customer service contacts. I have and It's next to imposible because of all the dead ends you get from costomer service. I think that the CRTC should fix this and make rogers more liable with what they say and do, very poor business practice, YES I will go to another cellphone provider.

Billing errors
My bill was $345. I spent 1-1/2 hour on the phone to Rogers Customer Service to have the bill reduced by $350. That's right - Rogers had made $350 worth of incorrect charges over a 3-month period (and we didn't go back to the previous months - perhaps I should have!).
To their credit, when I persisted, these charges were corrected. However, that they made those errors in the first place is inexcusable.
The errors: "Roaming" charges when I was in my local calling area. "MyFive" not being picked up. The biggest single error: $190 for a "Plan Change" when I had retained the precise same services since the plan began.
These errors are inexcusable. Although the billing charges were corrected, I'll never get back the hour-and-a-half that I spent on the phone, nor will the relief of the charges equal the stress of the Rogers Experience.
