Re: From todays Toronto Star

"Everyone complains, but no one's willing to take legal action against Rogers."

If you have the kind of $$$$ to put up to go ahead with that legal action be my guest. Takeing legal action is not a simple or cheap process and i am sure many don't have the time or money to waste. But if you do, go right ahead......

I'm happy with the service. I don't use NNTP, so I have nothing to bitch about.
If you're unhappy with your service though, whining here is not going to solve the problem, and give flat statements like
"Takeing legal action is not a simple or cheap process and i am sure many don't have the time or money to waste" is at best asinine. Unless you've actually gone and talked to a lawyer to see what your options are, there's little but speculation in this thread.
The problem with threads like these, is it show how truly Canadian we are. We're whiners who bitch and bitch, but do little about the real problems, always waiting for someone else to solve it for us, so we can go on with our lives.
Typical..and pathetic.

No, it's not assinine ... it's facing the reality of the situation dealing with monopolies who have far deeper legal pockets than their customers.

You call it a Canadian phenomenon ... It's not. You need to get outside Canada to realize that.

WTF are you talking about? You don't know me, I don't know you.

{edited for content}

Canadians like to talk the tough fight. I see a lot of pissing and moaning by a lot of people, but, what I don't see is anyone standing up and saying. Well, this is what we should do. That's asinine.
Grow a pair already, or stop talking about it.

Okay JackR, stand up and tell us what we should do? What have you done so far? Have you contacted a lawyer?

Please let use know your progress.

Good one jackr.

{edited for content}

Back to the subject Consumers can not do anything regarding rogers. At present they have all the cards. I checked now for Bell now only 256K is available in North York Area. I don't use newsgroup and my bandwidth hardly exceeds 10GB per month. So For now Go Rogers.

This forum is not Rogers forum but just a bitching forum. Actually this rants should be put under another sub-category.

As for Canadians they can just send letters and bitch in this forum.

I've already said I'm not unhappy with my Rogers service. I don't use NNTP.

Regarding what I would do. I've already said that also. If I was mad enough, I wouldn't waste my time bitching to a bunch of strangers. What's the point. I don't consider anyone reading this my priest, lover, friend, or anyone else I'd complain to.
I'd call several lawyers, ones who specialize in media arbitration or civilian law obviously..and I'd ask their opinion. I'd ask if they thought that Rogers was breaking the spirit of the EULA...and ask what they think I should do. First...I'd be prepared to ask if they charge for a free consolation..

The rest is up to you..but bitching about it over and over and over gets you no where.

And sorry if I offend in my opinion of milk toast Canadians.
