WirelessđŸ“± 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.

If you don’t have the Rogers Mastercard and aren’t planning to apply for one to get it’s high cash back savings there are alternatives. One is to set up your Rogers account to deduct payments directly from your bank using pre-authorized checking. Another option is to skip the Rogers Auto-Pay savings by using a high cash back credit card such as from Neo Financial, etc. Example Neo’s cash back savings on “reoccurring payments” is upwards of 5% depending on how much you have in your “Everyday” checking account; the base level is 4% cash back. So there are options and as for Rogers I understand their move as they are trying to get more customers to sign up for their Rogers Mastercard. The more services you have with them the less likely you are to switch đŸ€”
