Bait and Switch pricing

[Simonw]

The increased price to force members into another wholly owned subsidiary of Telus is tragic.

Please do like I did - file a complaint with the CCTS (the people who can make a difference). 

Eff this noise.

Lost all loyalty.

Seems planned and part of their overall strategy to me, considering it comes exactly after a year.

Saw you right from the beginning too! *wave

Thought PM was different from other carriers when I joined, but turns out they are even worse. What a surprise

Feel free to use my verbiage (below) for those that don't have time, remember STRENGTH IN NUMBERS. We've seen it happen at PM before.

Signed up for the lucrative $40/month for 4 GB LTE data a year ago and was told explicitly that there will no changes to the price of the plan as long as I remain an active customer with an active account. I was notified today through text message that this price will increase $10/month, or switch to Koodo to retain the plan. Switching over to Koodo, however would not make up for the cost of lost referral and loyalty credits, as well as the prepaid services I paid for that would be valid well after the date that this "offer" (if you can even call it that), expires.

For all who are interested - I just submitted a complaint to the CCTS online. 

It is VERY easy and only takes 7 minutes max.
