It's cheaper to pay your ECF with Fido and sign on as a new Rogers customer with a new contract than it is to buy the phone with their $100 off deal, unless you have some huge amount of Fido Dollars accumulated...
I have $50 in Fido dollars, can't I apply that to one of my Bills and then cancel ? I wonder if I can apply Fido dollars to the ECF? I really don't care who I am with. I may even do better with Rogers as I may get an additional discount due to the fact that I can get a discount for having both Rogers Internet and the cell.

I do agree... for once Rogers is doing something nice!
But I don't qualify personally for the promo because I am on a corporate plan...
Well, same here for now. Last year it took a few weeks for them to open up for corporate customers and this year that means we're still in time for the promotion. It's not over yet.
and here I had minor dental surgery yesterday and was on drugs so I didn't venture out to the local store to think about upgrading.
my 3G serves me well, but geezus, I like it so much that I want the new one lol
i'm going to check my bills b/c i'm sure i'm darn close to $100 per month and I'm sure I bought in September of last year.
And gee, it's father's day
so i don't qualify b/c i'm not consistently over the $100, but the last 2 months were and probably the last bill will be over $100 as well. I might call them again and see if they can make an exception. I did like the fact that if someone does qualify, they also get to keep their current 3G. I could sell it for $50 or so (maybe) or use it as a pure ipod touch.

There are *lots* of reports of exceptions being made. Try again.
Oh, and the days of 'having' to give back your current phone to get an upgrade are long, long gone--7 or 8 years on Rogers. If your dealer took back your phone in that time, it was to sell it or use it as a loaner. Before that time, before GSM, the phone was useless without an ESN activation anyways, but since GSM started, really, you bought it, it's yours. *Don't* let a dealer take the phone you bought saying it's part of their upgrade policy: it isn't. These days, it's basically theft.

Thanks However. I might try again. Not sure yet. I just checked my bill and I was right...over $100 again.
I think I'll wait until the next version comes out.

Kudos to Rogers, I got $500 back on my outright purchase of a 32GB black.*
For all the trepidation when the iPhone 3G was announced, Rogers announced a 6GB/month data plan, and an upgrade plan that included *anyone* who hadn't upgraded in the previous 3 months.
This time, even though their smartphone upgrade minimum is 2 years, if you upgraded last July to September, you get $500 back.
True, if for some reason I wound up not qualifying, I'd be chuffed, as the British say, but...
