My option is: "I will buy one if someone other than Rogers offers it here."
Rogers is still the only one with iPhones in Manitoba, both MTS and Telus claim that they'll have it by the start of Q3, but rumours are swirling that they might not be ready until well into 2011.
My contract expires in three months. If iPhones are not available for MTS or Telus by then, I'll probably get an Android phone.
No useable coverage for my purposes. Pretty much everywhere I go, MTS and Telus customers get 4 bars while Rogers' customers get no signal whatsoever. That was tons of fun when Air Canada decided to strand a bunch of us in Kitimat, offering us no assistance for a connecting flight or other transport to Smithers, refusing to let us use their phone, and most of the people with cell phones had Rogers, which had no signal at all. People with MTS, no problem.
Plus I get very good customer service with both MTS and Telus, while many people I know have had nothing but problems with Rogers'. I know one guy who received somebody else's' bill for thousands of dollars in charges that he proved were impossible to have been his, and it took them several months to admit their mistake all the while threatening to ruin his credit rating if he didn't pay up.
Rogers data rates are crazy high compared to MTS too.
thats alot of reasons, signal coverage is actually an issue from Rogers for me as well on my iphone. I wonder if fido is any diffrent? anyone know?
Fido is owned by Rogers, if there are any substantial differences as far as network coverage goes, I'm not aware.
My signal issues are a huge problem for where I live and where I go. People who elsewhere, and don't travel much may never experience the same problems.
