Dell.ca Deal Details

i wish Telus would offer something like this in BC. 1yr contract is fine but xps is sweet

No Win XP options eh?

i tried to sign up for bell sympatico but dell did a search with my phone#, addresss, and postal code. it only give me roger’s high speed.  are you guys having the same problem?

Same problem here, only give me Rogers High Speed

haha, what’s with that eh? Isn’t this suppose to be a deal that Dell + Bell are making? Why is Rogers even showing up? I tried with my info (i currently have bell) and my friend’s info (he has rogers) and neither shows bell--only rogers.

I have the same problem. I check my address in Bell’s website. It’s available.

I talked to Dell’s service. They let me make order through Bell directly.

It looks like a cheat!!!!!!!!!

if the contract’s only for a year
i’d say it’s a pretty sweet deal..

Trying to get this for a friend. It’s a sweet deal, but only if the service is available…

At my place, there are three options:
- Bell (12 month contract) @ $49.95
- Bell (reg) @ $49.95
- Robers @ $47.75

With my current provider (7 Mbps but @ $29.95) I would save $240 by going to the (port-blocked / no-server allowed / no fixed IP address / multi-level support organization with the lovely Emily) Bell side.

The ad just makes it look like its Bell only. DSL is not available is my area and when I put in my address, it came back with the same offers for a 12 months Rogers 5Mb connection @ 47.95. However when I look at what Rogers has to offer it only lists 7Mb (Express) and 10Mb (Extreme). If anyone can clarify, post back here.

Clarification of details… I don’t know why it says 3Mb here and 5 on the other page, but this is from the website:

$47.95 Monthly Service Fee
Your first 3 months of High Speed internet access are included, after that period you will be charged $47.95/month unless you cancel
Modem set-up of up to 3.0 Mbps download and 384 Kbps upload
Provides up to 9 e-mail addresses
Access Webmail from any computer connected to the internet
10 MB of WebSpace per active e-mail address
Technical support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
10% discount for Rogers VIP Members
Access to Rogers Yahoo! premium content and services

i called and apparently
if you don’t have a bell landline phone
u’r not eligible.

Yep, confirmed. They let me go all the way through the process and choose Rogers, but I don’t qualify for the deal unless you get Sympatico. Nowhere does it stop and say that if you don’t choose Bell. In fact, their $47.95/mo for Rogers Express if $3/mo more than going and buying it yourself.
