CRTC is allowing subscribers to transport their phone numbers to other wireless carriers, without paying down the complete bill or any other monies owed to the old carrier.

Rogers asked CRTC to block this number transfer, until the monies owed would be paid by the customer to the old carrier. Rogers withdrew this application.

Telus critized Rogers Wireless and said this was blatant attempt, to prevent to slow down their market loss and customers switching over. Telus claimed this would not promote customer choice.

It sems like the customer's "loonie" is getting stretched here in Canada from both sides. In my opinion we have some of the weirdest rules in the world that completley don't make sense in the wireless industry like:

• Buyer's Preference Policy

It's either, 30minutes talk time on the device or 30days whichever one comes first. Now let's get realstic obviously the 30minute talk time will come first.
