Kind of strange Telus is throwing around free gifts to lure customers. How many customers are they losing lately for them to have to do this?
Plus, I like my computer, I don't need a new one.

Its actually a matter of retaining customers. We offer a gift but to get the gift you have to sign up for 3 years in this case and stay with telus or else pay the penalty for leaving. Corporations like Telus and Shaw lose Millions of dollars setting up brand new service for someone who leaves them for and price that may be a couple of dollars sheaper or 2 months free. If you guarentee that the majority of customers signing up for gifts are going to stay with you for at least 3 years it makes sense from a business standpoint.
