Need A Favor From All Rogers Customers!
Hey guys!
So as we all know Rogers around campus has absolute shit network, I was just done today and called them and went ballistic. they told me i am the ONLY call they have received from campus complaining about this problem, and that it is probably my phone...its not my phone, it works fine in my hometown also its an iphone.... anyways, the number is 1888 ROGERS1 please just press 0 a bunch of times and you'll get connected to a human, and complain about the shittiness of this network, cuz they won't listen to me!

I'm with Rogers and the only place I've ever had a problem is in the the basement of TSH. Is your reception bad everywhere on campus?

Yeah there have been a few threads on macinsiders about this issue. I myself got all my texts a few hours late yesterday just as I left mac. I haven't bothered complaining to rogers because I don't think its a reception thing (I always have full bars anywhere on campus) so I doubt they will do anything about it :/

What can they do though, even if more people call how will they fix the problem?

I am with Fido and have the same problem. I have complained to them numerous times and they tell me there is no problem because I have full reception, and it is another network's problem. I went to a Fido store and the guy said I can switch my contract to Rogers without a cancellation fee, but I would have to buy a new phone... which doesn't help because Fido is owned by Rogers and use the same towers.
This year I am living on campus, so this is an ongoing problem of texts coming in hours late, sometimes not at all and not receiving calls.

Rogers is the only carrier with towers on campus (hospital roof). I've had 4 bars in the service tunnels in the BSB sub-basement. The problem isn't Rogers, check your handset.

wow coincidence
I called them Monday night yelling at them about the EXACT SAME THING.
rogers.
i posted a thread about this before.
she was like to me "the school is probably blocking you guys. we don't hear from mcmaster students really sand it seems like there's full reception everywhere. she tried to get me to upgrade my phone and i was just like...no"
i had a thread earlier about it and other rogers customers said they had called in too but to like...no success.
I HAVE SIGNAL all the time.
but even if i have signal phone calls dont go out, come in. texts don't get received. etc.
if i'm paying for a service they have to do something about it.
you are definitely not the ONLY person to have called them from campus. it just seems that they're ignoring what we're telling them slash I guess they don't really keep a record of all the "mcmaster complaints"
definitely not the headset either, as soon as i leave campus i'm fine.
i'm planning on switching to the fido network as soon as i can (even if it's technically owned by rogers...)
or at least I as until i saw mfm12's comment
and now i'm freaked out.

I would definitely not recommend Fido. I am just in first year and have only been in Hamilton for less than a full year, but I have been having this problem for months. When I go somewhere for the weekend it works fine, and you can tell as you are leaving Hamilton and things get faster, or slower as you get closer. It's just here that this happens, it works fine at home or any other city I have been to.
