Rogers is clearly trying to make themselves different from the other two of the big three telcos in Canada. They announce today that they have a new product that is going to shake up the landscape. It’s called Wireless Home Phone. Here’s how my contact at Rogers presented it to me:
Consumer demand in Canada for home phone services continues to be popular with over 80% of families with kids continuing having a landline service at home.The Wireless Home Phone solution offers a traditional home phone experience while connecting to the Rogers wireless network. Now, customers outside of Rogers Home Phone territory can have an affordable home phone experience from Rogers at the introductory price of $9.99 a month.
It’s a flexible solution for customers, allowing them to keep their current phone number and effortlessly move the service to any residence or office where the national Rogers wireless network is available. The no-term service includes unlimited Canada-wide calling, enhanced voicemail, caller ID and the ability to connect two phone.
Here is how it works:
- Customers can simply purchase the Wireless Home Phone device, which is an electrically powered adapter with an active SIM card
- Plug the device into their existing cord or cordless home phone
- Customers who already have a landline can simply plug into their existing cordless or corded phone into the Wireless Home Phone device and keep the same home telephone number
The service is also available for Rogers small business customers and Fido wireless customers.
This really sounds like a game changer as this broadens Rogers reach to areas outside their cable network. Thus Bell and Telus should be very scared. I’m requesting the opportunity to review this. I’ll let you know if it happens.
