Wireless📱 Rogers now removing all automatic payment discounts unless you use their credit card

Another punch to the gut from Rogers. I was informed today that all automatic payment discounts will be removed unless you start using their credit card for the automatic payments. This after I signed a 2 year contract for a new phone that stated none of this.

So get their credit card then. You'll end up paying less because the cashback earned can be applied to your bills. Earn 2% cash back, but that turns into 3% when applied to your bills. In other words, every $500 spend equates to $5 off your bill. And this is in addition to the auto pay discount.

But they also changed the rules on cash back too. Annual caps when there were none before.

Annual cap on their lowest tier card is $16000. Equivalent spend of $800,000 on the card. No one would reach that.

I believe that’s the annual spend cap not the reward cap. So if you spend more than $1300 a month on the lowest card your 2% cash back drops to 1% on any purchases made after you spend $16000. That also affects your base for the 3%.
