iPhone 3GS in Canada: Rogers Redeemed-ish?
For the second year in a row, Rogers provided awesome new plans for their customers, but did it at literally the 11th hour and utterly failed to inform many of their service reps about the last-minute changes in pricing and policy for the iPhone 3GS (kudos for getting the marketing folks up to speed though!) and also failed to get enough bandwidth and infrastructure in place to make sure Apple could actually upgrade customers, and Sales Central could remain functional.
Result: mass chaos on iPhone launch day.
Luckily for one Rogers customer, however, Rogers online rep Keith McArthur, the office of the President of Rogers, and a little luck resulted in a happy ending. Mark wrote in to let us know about his experience:
Step 6: I went to the Apple Store, purchased my phone (that was Sunday) and faxed the bill the same day.
Congrats Mark. Let’s hope the rest of us have just as much luck when we call in!

Re: the photo: What’s with this recent use of “Can” to refer to “Canada”?
Since “Can” is an English word, when someone sees “Can Has Rogers Activation,” it looks like a sentence that makes no sense.
As a journalist, if you must use abbreviations, please complete them in the standard manner by following them with a period:
“Can. Has Rogers Activation.”
That will be clearer to most readers.
Uggh. I don’t think he meant Canada. I believe he was talking ‘internet slang’.
Can Has Rogers Activation? would mean ‘Can I have a Rogers Activation?’.
@mark Rene didn’t mean “Canada” she meant “can” see http://icanhascheezburger.com/ for reference.
