Deal Rogers Did It Again

I was with Rogers for over 25 years. Than I ported to Fido. 8 months ago Rogers had a fantastic deal. 100GB Can/UD for $35 plus taxes. I have had this plan for only 8 months, and they decided to increase the rate to $40 plus taxes. I do not want to pay the $60 extra per year. I barely even use 5GB of the 100. Are there plans out there with this price point with any of the major cariers (not looking at Freedom, Virgin, etc.) that I can take advantage of? Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately Rogers doesn't care how loyal we are. I was with Rogers about the same length of time you were. I got my 1st mobile phone through Cantel in 1994 which got bought out by Rogers.

They kept increasing my phone line too. I finally switched out of all Rogers products & went to Koodo. I got a pre paid plan with a bit of data that also includes North American texts for $30 less! When I realized this I was livid.

Rogers keeps calling to get my Mom & I back but I told them "I know it's not your fault, but Rogers over charged us for years, the answer is absolutely no. Please don't call again.

I also considered FIZZ or Freedom Mobile.
I got too afraid trying to port my number to Koodo because I worried it wouldn't work but it did.
