Primus promotion - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

phishfan · 2008-10-22, 07:38 AM

I'm seriously considering switching to primus right now. They are offering the following which you may have received in your mail or go online.

Landline with 9+features
DSL 5mb/s up to 7mb/s
Unlimited Long Distance

All for $64.95+.40(911).

This means I'm going to cancel my Bell and my rogers internet.

Has anybody opted for this package? Any problems? Any additional charges that they are not telling me?

Apparently you have to an access number to pickup message and not just *98. This is annoying but not a deal breaker.

I really like the spam guard feature that they talk about.

What do you like and not so like? I've been randomly calling their tech support and I've had wait times of 1 minute all the way to 15 minutes.

Should I make the switch?? Oh, and they're offering air miles for what's that's worth.

I've discussed on several threads around here that you may want to search on. Also check out the Primus service review thread

i don't recommend primus or vonage at all. If you do go for it, make sure you have cell phone handy in case of outages.
