Plus then you're stuck with your phone, that's one big plus for some people with Rogers/Fido is the ability to switch phones whenever they like.
I'll actually be saving 15 a month if I go to Koodo. But thanks for doing out the math for me, it's good to know I have the same numbers. I will definitely miss the ability to use a SIM card though.

Make sure you have the exact website they can find this better offer on, if they see they will lose you, they will do everything short of prostituting themselves to keep you on.

I did this when I was paying 80 bucks a month to Bell on my old plan. I showed them a Rogers plan/phone upgrade that I could get for 50 bucks a month by canceling with Bell, paying the 200 bucks, and resigning my contract.

They gave me a new phone and reduced my bill to 50 by giving me a buncha options that I had previously been paying for, for free.
I was totally thinking that. I think I read your post in some other thread and got the idea from there, but I had to figure out how much I'd have to pay to cancel first. Thanks.
