Rogers Data Plan Hardly Changed With Revamp

Thanks for visiting Palm Discovery

Rogers may seem like they’re trying to revamp their data plans to keep things competitive but regardless, we’re still get shafted for getting the only national GSM service in Canada.

Recall that Rogers recently implemented a new unlimited data plan for their own branded phones (excluding smartphones and unlocked phones). Well, to somewhat give those of us smartphone users and non-Rogers branded phone users a break, they’re revamping their data plan to give the impression that they’re giving us more.

A quick look at the tiers and it doesn’t look that good.

For all you users on Rogers and you want a data plan for your iPhone, it’s going to cost ya. Even though Rogers recently came out with an “unlimited mobile browsing” plan for $7, it does not apply to non-Rogers cellphones!
