Ahoy, Ye Landubbers. Jolly Roger is out to plunder and pillage your wallets.

Remember yesterday, respect tomorrow, live for today.

I bought some batteries, but they weren't included.

Last Wednesday night I noticed Roger's has recently removed the fence between their call center and the Moncton Market. What gives here? I used to walk down to Roger's parking lot to unoficially sip on a brew when attending Moncton Market events. Wednesday night I looked over and saw some nice picnic tables and no fence in the way. Is this some long term commitment deal? Is there some fine print I should read here? Will I be locked into a "Sip Per Visit" contract? The fenceless tables looked good but I'm not nibbling til I find out the real story.

Up until recently all that was going on between me and Rogers was cable TV. I had enquired about Internet, when I was having a "thing" with Aliant, but they were not interested in coming to the "party" (I own my own cable modem and I was refused service without their rental), so I am still with Aliant for Internet.
I have not enquired about home phone because Rogers are dicks (past cel phone "fun").
I recently (4 months ago) decided all I wanted from Rogers was "basic cable", and they really had a hard time understanding that. After talking to about 4 people on the phone they finally got the idea, and just today turned off my extra channels, that is, after the guy turning off these extra channels gave me another unwanted sales pitch at my door.
Even the remaining channels are of poor quality, of content, and visually, though I guess I wish to maintain some kind of TV link with the outside world.
Any shows I want to watch I simply download them.

This is not to say Aliant is "perfect", but they appear to be the lessor of the two evils.

You only live life once.

Twice was enough for me. I finally beat the system for watching free tv. I can grab a lawn chair, beer, popcorn, and insect repellent and set up on somebody who owns a big screen tv's front lawn. With the new surround systems I can hear the shows really good. If they call the cops I can move to the lawn across the street. This idea only works if the system belongs to a person on the first floor.

"I think  i will break this contract regardless."

"They" (Rogers) broke it when they disconnected you.

I'd tell them to shove the rest of their two years and write them a check for the remainder of what they say you owe them. Have it written out to two names. One name can be Rogers and the other can be the name of some person who is a tv reporer or something. On the back of the cheque specify that your story has to be told on the news before the cheque is cashable. That way you will have paid them but they can't get their money without having a taste of their own contract medicine. I think Yvonne Colbert still works for ATV. She has helped many people who got the sh*t end on the stick.

Moncton Netters Beware:

Nice weather is here and Rogers with be fealing theatened by all the people going outside. Prepare for them stuffing your mailboxes with lots and lots of junk mail for tv, internet, and cell phone packages designed to lure you back inside or to offer you the freedom of mobility. Keep your guard up after reading the first one and keep in mind there are probably 4 or 5 more different Rogers offers still in your mailbox. You just have to dig a bit deeper.

Cause of rogers I can't get a load (they f*cked me when I stopped working for them, decided to put me on a contract plan, which I didn't sign for nor used teh service and sent me a 500$ bill 2 years later)
