I agree, Rogers can not just switch your plan, you have a contract with them and that would be in violation. Even after the 2 or 3 year sign-up period the contact stays in place until it is canceled or changed with consent. This is how my wife is on the following for 25.00 flat, no service charge, no 911, nothing extra except for taxes:

5000 min rogers to rogers anytime
300 min day per month
unlimited evenings / weekends
6pm for evening
call display
voice mail
text 2500 in 600 out
100 min long distance anytime

Rogers is kind enough to offer her free phones, new plans etc etc to update. Grandfathering is nice.

This is why I think it is more likely they fix the loop hole.
 
Yep thats how it works My plan is grandfathered too :

20bucks per month :

400 anytime minutes
Unlimited rogers to rogers
Unlimited eve and weekends at 6
call display
voice mail
who called
text 2500 out unlimited in
Plus 911 fee : so its 20.69 or whatever it is a month + tax.
Plus the 15 UE plan so 35.69+ tax a month for ALL this

hehe
 
I don't think it's all that likely that Rogers will plug the loophole. The key thing is that it's PERSONAL email. Corporate clients are who they really want to have over a barrel. Why do you think they announced the $7 unlimited on device browsing plan? Why do you think it's not available for BlackBerries or WM devices?

Having the loophole is good for them, because it satisfies the pickiest users (people like us), but they can still bleed corporate clients who need BES. I seriously doubt plugging it is a priority for them because it's beyond the capabilities of most users to take advantage of. The lost *potential* revenue is just not that great.

Also, the idea that Rogers needs more "infrastructure" to provide unlimited data is brown, smelly, and fell out of a male cow. Ever had coverage issues with Rogers with your BlackBerry? No? I guess their EDGE network must be up to the task then. Are you suggesting to me that the problem is they can't afford the internet bandwidth?

Rogers charges through the nose for data because they can. Period. Let's all remember that even WITH the loophole, they're still making money off us.
