Rogers announced today that their customers will soon be able to subscribe to Rogers Next, a program that will allow them to get most of the latest smartphones for $0 down every 12 months, with no early upgrade or connection fees.
Here’s how the program work:
- When customers upgrade to a new device or join Rogers, they have the option to subscribe to the Rogers Next program for a monthly fee of $24.99 or $29.99 with Rogers Device Protection Premium included. This service, which helps protect customers from device damage (and loss and theft in some provinces), retails for up to $11.99 per month;
- After 12 months, they can trade in their current device in good working order for a new smartphone of their choice that has a subsidized price of up to $250;
- They pay $0 down for the new device on select new two-year plans, and the remaining FLEXtab balance and connection fees are waived;
- Customers then have the option to continue their enrolment in Rogers Next to get another new device in 12 months for $0.
The $0 down offer applies to smartphones worth up to $250 based on subsidized two-year term pricing. Over 95% of phones they offer are under $250. However, if the two-year term price exceeds $250, customers simply pay the difference in the hardware price. As an example, if they wanted to upgrade to a smartphone available for $329.99 on a two-year term today, they would have to pay an additional $79.99 at the time of upgrade with Rogers Next.
Now if any of this sounds familiar, it should. Telus has a similar program called T-UP for their customers. Will it make sense for you? Check out additional details and a comparison chart on Redboard: http://roge.rs/9egtA9. It may make sense to those who always want the latest and greatest.
