Rogers Updates iPhone 4 Information Page
Early this morning, Rogers finally updated their website to reflect the July 30 launch date for the iPhone 4.
Like the other wireless carriers, there is a “Register Now” link (on the Rogers homepage) where users can sign up and receive up to date information on the iPhone 4 on Rogers.
Earlier this month, Bell was the first Canadian wireless carrier to publicly post that they would be carrying the iPhone 4 on July 30, 2010. This was followed by Rogers and Fido, except that Rogers/Fido posted their announcements internally and not publicly (that’s changed now).
Soon after, Telus updated their iPhone 4 information page with the July 30 launch date and then Virgin Mobile followed.
So if you are currently a Rogers subscriber or plan on subscribing with Rogers when you get your iPhone 4, check this out. But with 3 days left, there probably won’t be a lot of useful news coming from Rogers.

WOW that is brand new information! COME ON ROGERS! COME ON “BIG THREE”. Give us the pricing and hup already!!!
What do you think the stock in Rogers plus stores will be approximately? Like 30 or s that too much? Foes 6 am kunung up for the store that opens at 10 provide me with a Hugh chance fo getting an iPhone 4 doesn't matter the am out of space?
In London Ontario, should I go to an Apple Store in Mississauga or to a Rogers or Best Buy here in London on Friday?
Daaaah! I'm going to be in Parksville, BC on the 30th. Anyone live in Parksville who could tell me where to lineup? lol
How the hell am I going to get this phone? I guess I'm going to have to call Rogers and pray I get through.
I don't know about Rogers, but according to the Future shop I called yesterday, they said they only have 14 of the new iphones. I guess I won't be going to Future shop then
FINALLY
What does the pricing matter right now? You want it now, you are going to buy it now no matter what.
Thats a long drive for a phone. Your best bet is go to Rogers in London.
does anybody know if rogers is opening early for the launch?
I called Rogers about that. They don't know how many they'll have or if they'll be opening early!
On a side note regarding Apple Store opening hours on Friday, anyone know when? Are the the same for all provinces? In particular the Apple Store in downtown Montreal. thanks.
My Rogers store in Milton had less than 10 devices total on launch day for the 3GS. Take that how you will.
That all depends on the hup eligibility. If they don't do something like AT&T where existing customers were able to get the phone for the same price as new customers before their two years were up I'm going to have to wait another month or so. I'm just anxious! 😛
I signed up at Roger's site to be informed yet, iphoneincanada blog still informs me first. I bet they just took my email and sold it to someone else!
Will we know anytim soon if Telus is going to offer a special early upgrade like Rogers most likely is, I'm currently yr and 7 months into my 3 yr contract. What do you think my chances of getting it for the 299 price are?
Updating that image must have taken a lot of work on Rogers' part. I don't expect any more updates for a few days.
@roadcarver … Same here! No updates from Rogers at all lol. Ill be in Victoria on Friday, could anyone point me where to go for a Rogers store?
I agree. Go to Bestbuy. Square One and Sherway are likely to be very busy places.
Yeah I was at a Rogers store for the 3G launch and I was 6th in line. And I didn't get what I wanted. Unless I wanted a white 8gb I would have got one.
So my assumption they will have more 16gb versions than the 32gb version.
I called yesterday; you need to have less of 6 months on your actual contract to get “the†price for a 3 years contract. In my case, I am on hold for 4 months or I have to spend 180$ to cancel my actual contract.
I'm in London as well, I'm going to Best Buy in Masonville, probably around 5am. I considered going to the Apple Store in Mississauga, but as that is the only Apple Store for quite some distance I figure it will be insane.
That is really lame, so at yr and 7 months in I can't get anything? mines well just buy outright at Apple Store hey.
Any idea how fast the Apple store will ship the iPhone 4 if you buy it online? If I buy it on Friday I definitely wouldn't get it that day would I
Just spoke with a FIDO rep directly who says, the APPLE STORE can access everything FIDO stores can (ie: i can use Fido dollars, it will appear on my invoice (i won't have to pay on the day) and i can renew my contract (for fido customers, that's 14mths BEFORE ur contract ends, you can renew).
Snags: If you use fido dollars, you HAVE to resign a 3year data plan as well as a 3yr voice plan. UG.
But all can be done at the applestore where, i hope, they will have more stock.
Eaton Centre for me… where's everyone waiting?!?!?! Can we even get into the centre to wait?
I have been frequenting these comments for the last few weeks, and I just want to ask a questions (similar to one before) to ease my mind a little.
For me, I am confident that I am eligible for an upgrade since I got the iPhone 3G at launch (about 25 months ago).
My brother however, got a dumphone (samsung galaxy I think) July 30th of last year from Rogers. About a week ago he called asking when he was eligible to upgrade (just in general) he was at first told July 30th 2011, but after insisting he heard that it was a 1 year policy if you have a dumphone, someone informed him that he would be eligible at August 1st this year. Now this was kind of a pain to him because it's two days after the iPhone 4 launch and they will most likely all be sold out.
With this new information about if you purchase before June 7th 2010 coming to light I assume he would now be eligible. My question are:
a) is he going to have to pay a ridiculous amount for the new iPhone or will it be maybe $100 premium over the standard 199/299 prices (please just speculate)
b) how certain is this new information about the June 7th date? And will Rogers eventually make this public, or will it stay private.
I really don't want to drag my brother along on Friday and make him wait with me for hours and for him to ultimately be refused an iPhone. Do you guys like his chances?
August 1, 2010, Rogers site will still say “Coming July 30th” if they progress at the speed they already have been.
We are getting the iPhone on July 30th? I did not know that… Thanks Rogers, now I can sleep at night.
HI, Can anybody answer that: Will bestbuy sell unlocked iphones? Thanks
Existing Rogers customer, now with a regular phone, 1 year or so into my contract. Has been on contract with them (with that number) for 14 years.
Will add a new customer, could transfer regular phone to my mom & get iPhone4 as new contract/phone or upgrade and start new for my mom… Either saves the most money, I'll do.
Want to negociate & use all this as leverage. Don't care as much about iPhone4 price as contract/plan price.
My problem: To negociate this, don't I need to be on the phone, with access to retention department???
If I'm in a Rogers store on Friday am, it'll be pretty hard to convince them I'll go to Bell instead. And the guys at the counter won't be able to negociate anything.
If I call, do I have a chance to get the iPhone4, how do they handle it, do they have a good stock?
I'm OK if it means I won't have it until the middle of next week, because of delievery, but that's it!
Thanks
As a Rogers customers do we have to go to a Rogers store? Or can we do Apple / BestBuy?
The apple stores won't sell out, there were plenty of 3GS in store, I bought mine 3 days after launch and my girlfriend did, four weeks after and never sold out,
And this iPhone has a defective antenna so less people will be buying now that the info is out. The states sold a lot before the issue was discovered.
Is it the same with Rogers? I was wondering how it works if you are buying on contract from the Apple Store (Eton Centre for me too). Are they able to help you sign up, choose the best data plan etc?
We are currently on old Nokia DumbPhones from the end of 2007 so will definately be eligible, but we have no data plans yet so i'm a bit worried about how this will all get set up if I go to the Apple Store.
I read somewhere that Rogers requires you to have a data plan in order to upgrade now. Does anyone know if this is true?
At this point, I'm sort of hoping that they do keep any big press releases until the last minute. Ultimately, less press means less line-ups for those of us in the know on Friday morning. Selfish sure, but what the heck!
you can go to the applestore.. they have the same records rogers do. but you can't haggle a contract if you need to (ie: if you have a grandfathered contract, plan etc)
i also heard this rumour is true
fidos page just went up aswell
i can't speak for rogers.. but as for Fido i can go to the apple store and they have access to the same records Fido does. as for picking the right plan, they must have all the same info.. prepare yourself before you go in and look on the website.. right now there really are only two plans with everyhting included.. $65 and $80 iphone plan.. though they say that could change friday.
hey what time you hitting up eaton centre id def like some company?
It seems from the marketing material that they won't. I tink you have to sign up at the store for a carrier there. I think apple is the only source for clean phones.
I signed up with Rogers, Fido AND Apple and have never heard anything. This is the only site that has kept me updated. Any word on the price?
Anyone know if BestBuy will be selling phones at a non contract price to buy an unlocked phone? Or do you have to sign up for a contract when buying there?
Awesome. Some one at Rogers figured out how to type 15 characters and 2 spaces. It is ridiculous that they wait this long to announce something. We still don't really no anything about early HUP, except for a few rumors. I guess they know people will buy this phone, regardless of price/plans/whatever, so they don't need to announce anything?!
Either one
No
if u want to have an iphone u dont need to have a data plan they will try to get u on it but u dont have too trust me i had it and then got rid of it
No unlocked iPhones at Best Buy. No matter the price paid.
u can buy it at rogers/bestbuy but im not sure about apple
I was told by a Rogers CSR that whole “as long as you bought your last phone before June 7th” was true when I called yesterday to ask my HUP date.
i signed up on all 4 sites (rogers bell telus and apple) and yeah iphoneincanada still informed us all first
