Showing that Rogers isn’t too big to listen to its customers, it has made an announcement to re-energize the buzz surrounding the global launch of iPhone 3G tomorrow morning.
Rogers has come out with a $30 data plan that will provide 6GB of data for customers who activate between now and the end of August.
The plan will also apply to a number of other smart phones from Rogers in addition to the iPhone 3G:
- Samsung i616 (“Jack”)
- Motorola Q9H
- HTC TyTN
- Palm Treo 750
- Nokia N95
- BlackBerry Bold (when available)
- HP 910c (when available)
For those who show up as the doors open at 8 am at 6 Rogers Plus store across the country, breakfast will be served as well as draws for special prizes.
Rogers is looking to rebuild its customer relationships, perhaps leveraging the negative press and Ministerial intervention associated with Bell and TELUS introducing charges for inbound text messages. Food and free stuff works for me!
