I am gonna try to call them again tmr. and I will tell them that I am not living with my parents does anyone know if it would be okay to lie like how do they even confirm that Im not living with my parents..?
Anyone who got the loyalty offer for $75, were you existing customers and you got it on the online chat?
I was looking at their offers section and Shaw was offering these 8 months student pricing to everyone pretty much. No need to be a student.

Can anyone tell me which is the best internet plan under budget of 40$. I am unable to judge with the connectivity. Currently i am on rogers network on mobile and its really frustrating as the signals drop while calling..
TIA
First time I called in the gut said there’s no such promo for the first month free.
Then I did live chat, and the person said the previous person I spoke to didn’t know what they were doing. It was in their records. It also showed me as having the first month free, I guess from the first person. She reversed that and gave me the tax off as well.
For me, they applied my promo in 1 day, it's showing the new internet speed and they changed my balance but it looks like they didn't apply the free month. Wondering if I should call in or wait
You will get an email confirming that it has been applied.
Comparing with student promo:
Student promo = Internet 150 costing $45*8 + $110*4 = $800 (assuming you don't have any additional promos after 8 months)
Loyalty offer = Internet 300 costing $65*12 = $780
That's just the internet? Because that is what I pay for 2y of 300 internet, medium tv and home phone, well the thereafter price.
I was trying to find the cheapest way to keep a Shaw.ca email address and switch to telus, but $65 they quoted as lowest. I didn't argue with them over that one though.
So now I'm saving over $2400 vs Telus over 2 years,
[Damn, below was horrible, since fixed to accommodate those who can't make sense of jumbled words. Thats what I get typing from a floor in a rush to make dinner and Grammarly being to slow to alert me to the massive screwup on my part, mid moving some cables and eqiupment as well so I can drop a line direct into the shaw box and fix up the weird stuff they did over the years. i have to pull some Cat6/7/a anyways]
Shaw, without issue, made offers to me, a renewing customer who considered jumping to Telus, that in the end were are a fraction of Telus's offer. A $500 is not much of a promotion, nor is a cheap tv to me, as I just got faster service that cost half my previous bill, for two years, no increases and ability to renegotiate should something better come
A $500 is gift card is nothing special, and ignore those lures such as a free TV, the value of those is a fraction of what you can get.
I even got another credit of $100 to make the first bill be smaller, due to the change in billing systems, Two days ago got yet another $100 due to staff never giving correct answers to questions about Shaw service. Always get put on hold and they ask some people around them who are 50/50 split on "if bluesky portals do 4K." and then offered as soon as there is a box that can do 4K, All I have to do is ask. Well, the installer said it is possible, you just basically have to have two "gateway" main bluesky boxes. Saved $100 on install fees, whatever connection fees were, Same with the cost of a second installer come for $100, but they waived it and the double 4K boxes.
Don't wall for TV or Giftcard deals, those are general public offers anyone can get just from going to the website. The website generated offers NOTHING close to what I got.
It was the same with the student plan last year - I asked them a couple times about it and always said the plan was unlimited, even though it showed 1 TB. I never get close to that anyway so didnt bother to push it.
For the unlimited data for Internet 150 on the Student Plan , thanks arandomguy for pointing this out for me
Shaw 150 pages mentions unlimited data - https://www.shaw.ca/internet/highspeed-150-2yvp/
But on the actual student promo page it only lists 1 TB for data - http://shop.shaw.ca/student
The initial student deal for 8 months, no free months and reps were saying this is all that will be offered this year.
Some reps were then saying wait till Sept, better deals are coming, but most towed the party line
Now we have 7 months with 1 month free which is a better deal
Is a 12 month deal coming in Sept? Shaw should just put their best offer on the table rather than playing with customers.
