 Broadcasting - Commission Letter to Rogers Cable Inc. Alleging a Breach of Section 9 of the Broadcasting Distribution ...
Rogers clarified that its concern was not about the agreement between Henderson and Concord Pacific, but that Pacific Place had subsequently accepted Concord Pacific’s designation as the exclusive supplier of cable television services to the residents of the Europa.
Rogers maintained that it is the acceptance of this exclusive arrangement that constitutes the conferral of an undue preference on Pacific Place Cable, contrary to section 9 of the Regulations.
Rogers sought as a remedy that, as a condition of providing service to the residents of the Europa, the Commission require Pacific Place Cable to ensure that all residents of the building have access to cable television services from a broadcast distribution undertaking of their choice.

 Beware of Rogers cable modem Internet Service Provider
Cable companies have a monopoly in their designated areas so there is no guarantee that one cable company will follow the market practices of the others.
Rogers phone support line at 1 888 288-4663 has been busy for much of the week and when I was able to get the recording it always said the average wait time would be very long (up to 100 minutes on hold).
Rogers customer support absolutely refused to send a service technician out to determine if the problem was their cable modem or the Ethernet card they sold me. They basically dumped the problem back in my lap (several times).

 Eye - NEWS: Veterans of the cable riots - 02.16.95   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The cable rates in my building are going up more than 15 per cent, and there are rumors floating around that we will get hit with another rate increase later this year, which will be incorporated in rent hikes.
If an individual is really upset with Rogers I imagine he or she could tell the company to remove all its hardware from the house or apartment.
This is a market that Rogers Cable could easily exploit, as once the buildings have signed up the subscribers have virtually no say on issues such as rate increases.

 Mark Evans :: Rogers Cable Telephony Update
In posting its third-quarter results yesterday, Rogers Communications said it had cable telephony revenue of C$700K and operating costs of C$9.1 million.
Rogers said is adding 10,000 customers/month and has an installation capacity, which includes a truck roll, of 500/day.
The problem, however, is Rogers is still not competing on price, and the cost difference between its offer and Bell's prices is not enough to make it worth the hassle for many consumers.

 David Crow: Rogers Digital Cable
The price for my Rogers cable connection finally jumped (all of the discounts and introductory offers finally expired) to where the difference between my good old cable and digital cable was negligible.
Rogers Digital Cable is a great example of a company not understanding what their customer needs are and misinterpreting television watching behaviour.
Rogers must have analysts/business consultants/marketing analysts that review all of the vast stores of customer data and analytics but they still don’t fundamental understand how or why I watch TV.

 VERY DISAPPOINTED in Rogers Cable - Digital Forums
I am thoroughly disappointed in Rogers' lack of truthful advertising about the fact that your digital terminal ideally should not be connected to a tv where one has intentions of connecting a VCR to it.
The lack of disclosure of front line technical support and customer service representatives to help educate cable customers about the drawbacks of using a digital terminal and educating them on how to overcome the technical issues relating to VCR and digital terminal hook-ups is a serious let-down.
The connection of a VCR to analog cable is straightforward and allows the owner to watch one channel while recording another.
