Pay us so you don't have to pay us

Wow! I was reading the promotional material in my Rogers Wireless bill. I thought that Rogers had finally seen the light and would let us manage our usage so that we wouldn't exceed limits and have to pay through the nose.

Rogers now has Call Manager.

“Call Manager can help you manage your family's phone usage. It's a great way to enjoy peace of mind and keep your wireless spending under control. Easily create rules for voice and text usage online.”

Hallelujah! It's about time!

Oh, but there is one small detail. It costs a whopping $5 per month per line!

Yes, that's right. Rogers is willing to gouge you so that you can stop being gouged. Such a deal. I'll pass.
