"The company hit the headlines in 2005 when Hezbollah cloned the mobile phone of chief executive Ted Rogers and of customers.... This came to light when it happened to Toronto professor Susan Drummond..."

This is not actually true, Susan Drummond visited Israel and had her phone stolen. The newspaper that published the article failed to distinguish between that fact and the issue of mobile cloning, which were discussed in the same article. The cloning of executive lines ended in 2001 when the company moved to GSM. Source: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20051217.wxcellphone1217/BNStory/Technology/

"Ms. Drummond quickly determined what had happened: Someone had stolen her phone while she was away."

The phrase, "..... is founded by Edward S. “Ted” Rogers, Sr. ....." is removed according to this source [1]. Ktsquare (talk) 23:52, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Is there any source for the claims that Rogers is the largest wireless and cable providers in Canada? Otherwise, they should be edited out, IMO. -Duey

According to Wikipedia, bell mobility has 5.3 million subscribers, Togers Wireless has 6.3, and, living in Canada, I see no other competitors, any questions?Tallrichard2 09:25, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Rogers tells us that in training and advertising pamphlets. Nastajus 06:19, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
Rogers says a lot of things (to employees and customers) that tend not to be true. They also blatently lie in training about their competition. They're just chalked full of dignity >:C

I know this isn't very encyclopedic, but I'd like to see some information on how Rogers screws just about everyone who uses their products and services. I don't know a single person who hasn't been lied to and cheated out of their money due to Rogers unethical business practices. --66.130.0.153 20:10, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Well now you know one single person that "hasn't been lied to and cheated out of their money due to Rogers unethical business practices". Guess what, it's me! Glad to help. --IceCube 01:19, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
Hey 66.13.0.153: If you like add a link to http://www.ihaterogers.ca. If you can find some research or some kind of appropriately sourced article on complaints about rogers, we can put that in too.--FNV 23:55, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

i was cheated by Rogers on bill many times -- eventhough they always had "good" reasons to justify the cheatings -- I still feel cheated. there are just too many tricky on their pricing and billing system. But to better solve the problems, you can all their customer relations department. They will give you better offer when you say "i am cancelling the service."


I have never been cheated out of money. Rogers Customer Service has pissed me off many times, but I can never say that money was how I felt cheated.Tallrichard2 09:27, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

ive paid my bill 6 days ago, and now it appears that i have another $130 to pay. plus they stopped providing bill details 2 months ago. rogers is a synonym of blackmail. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yanshenghua007 (talkcontribs) 03:43, 22 January 2008 (UTC)


Is there any reason the "fleet services" section is included? it seems pretty trivial and largeley irrellevant to the article. You dont see a similar section in the Microsoft article about what cars they use do you?65.93.160.101 22:57, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Rogers.png

Image:Rogers.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

ROGER FACES YET ANOTHER LAWSUIT check out the link www.mrrogersneighbourhood.ca Everything legal about Rogers Order of Justice Thomson "rogers is not a nice company" then she ordered punitive damages


[edit] NEW COMPETITION EN ROUTE!:

Consumers will finally have the option to leave Rogers as their

cell phone provider in late 2008. New bandwidth is being auctioned off in May 2008 with the successful bidder being announced a few weeks later. Rogers is prohibited from purchase controlling share of any new competition entering the Canadian market place. Ted Rogers (Rogers Communications) expressed dissapointment at this announcement in contrast to the jubilation expressed by the consumers. His comments can be found through Google. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.116.29.187 (talk) 09:25, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Assessment

I have assessed this as Start Class, as it contains more detail and organization than would be expected of a Stub, although it requires more referencing and in-line citations. I have assessed this as mid importance, as it plays a strong, but perhaps not vital, role in understanding Canada. Cheers, CP 16:17, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Why is there a list of the different vehicles in their fleet? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 17.104.94.145 (talk) 16:46, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
