Rogers has launched a limited-time promo in the form of a $95/50GB Canada and USA plan on Friday.
This plan offers 5G/5G+ network access and 50GB of data at up to 1 Gbps speeds, then throttled after the data buck is consumed. You also get unlimited calling, texting and data use in Canada and the United States. For those that frequently head to the U.S., this saves you from subscribing to daily Roam Like Home plans.
While Telus and Bell have increased their US and international roaming add-ons, Rogers confirmed with iPhone in Canada last month that it has no plans to follow suit at the time (but that was before the federal government’s final decision on the Rogers-Shaw merger). Canada’s Industry minister then directed the CRTC to “look into” high roaming fee increases.
Telus and Bell also have a $95/90GB unlimited data plan, but it is only for Canada. Rogers just slapped on USA to its plan and says it expires on April 3, 2023, with the limited-time availability likely a way to get customers to sign up.
Last month, Rogers, Telus and Bell launched $105/100GB Canada/USA plans, magically at the same time.
On Friday, the federal government approved the Rogers-Shaw merger, much to nobody’s surprise. Rogers later issued revised guidance for 2023 to say it expects total service revenues to increase 26-30% thanks to the acquisition of Shaw.

Are we supposed to consider this a good offer? LOL! 50Gb in Europe costs €6, incl. free roaming.
if you’re already paying for this plan, the US part is a good bonus if you travel down south I’d say!
Which country and carrier? I don’t see this “deal” from searching and that seems unrealistically low.
No, not low, I recall my wife telling about plans like that price and lower when she came back from a business trip from India, her driver said his plan was $4us a month but she didn’t get details. So I did a quick search and the first plan I clicked on was around 8cad for 75 gig I think, I didn’t look closely but there’s tons of prices and I’m sure there’s probably a plan similar to the one Victor mentioned.
Nobody gets ripped off worse than Canadians and thanks to Trudeau’s liberals it will get worse.
lol nice one calling this guy out.
It’s true, i’m from Italy, the majority of the plans are like 100gb for 5/6 euro.
I’m from Italy.
100gb for 10 euro, 50gb for 5 euro.
We even have some offers for unlimited data for 20/25 euro.
In france is very similar, i don’t know in other countries.
But yes, i can confirm that those are the prices.
Go to iliad .it, the first offer is 120gb for 7 euro.
The fact that here people don’t even belive those prices is definitely a bad sign.
Wow, $10 gets you 50 GB!
Upgraded to the Infinite Premium plan 20 mins ago before I saw it here! Now I get the 5G+ coverage! The US calling, text and data is just a bonus!
nice!
$1200/year plus taxes – um no.
I certainly don’t want to be one of the lemmings supporting this thievery conglomerate:
Rogers Communications (CA:RCI.A, CA:RCI.B) CEO Tony Staffieri has been the chief executive of one of Canada’s leading cable and wireless companies for 14 months. Officially appointed on Jan. 11, 2022, The Globe and Mail reported that in his first full year as CEO, Staffieri earned $31.52 million.
Nobody is worth that much money, NOBODY!!!
Sounds exactly like the BF 60-65$ ( depending on your luck…cuz Canada) plan that ALL THREE cartel members were offering.
I thought the Libranos boasted a reduction in mobile charges. And then they turned around and said…”bahaha, sheeple, let them eat cake”.
