I just switched off of Bell after many years. I had the HD PVR and was happy with it. I'd had it for about 18 months.
I got a call from Shaw asking why I have my phone and internet with them and not TV. Told them I was waiting for a good deal. So they offered me:
2 free hdpvrs (motorola 3416)
2 months free service (full cable, and hd plus)
5months for 38.95
regular price 67.95
NO contract
free NHL centre ice full season
I took them up their offer and it was installed today.
The funny part was calling Bell to cancel. They wouldn't take no for an answer. It took me 15 minutes on the phone to get them to cancel my account. They tried to offer me 40% off, free PVR rental for a year, etc. It was actually a pretty great deal.
So the moral of the story is: If you like Bell, you should call and threaten to cancel at least once a year because Shaw is offering you a better deal. They will save you a bunch of money and give you awesome stuff.
If you want to get the same deal I got, PM me. I'll give you the email contact at Shaw. You have to be a current Bell customer and you have to swap them a satellite receiver. I bought one for $20 on Craigslist.
