I just received an email stating about this Smart Drive thing:
"Now that you've received your Rogers Smart DriveTM device.."
BUT, I didn't buy one, and I don't even have an active Rogers account (when I try to login to my profile it keeps asking me to associate it with a Rogers account).
Is this an error or did someone use my email address to sign up for service?

Same here. I sent a complaint to their executive. Support says an hour wait. Ridiculous. I am a long-time Apple customer, and NEVER EVER have to wait that long for support. They are one of the biggest and most successful companies in the world. They have ZERO respect for their customers time.

I got the same stupid email.... did not choose a smart drive. Just the thought of calling a Rogers makes me shudder and reach for the wine bottle

I have received the same email. Chatted with Rogers via the website. He gave me this : "I had a lot of customers chat today with the exact same issue. but it may still be worth contacting our smart drive department at 1-844-896-5223 and our fraud department at 1-800-588-6718". Called the fraud department while chatting. He told me I had to get the agent to open a fraud case. He didn't. So I'm forever on hold with the smart drive department. They've hold music is peppered with "use our online support...." messages, even though this department doesn't have any of that. Went to Facebook, lots of people there, same problem. What amazes me is that they have a CEO that's pushing Customer Service, but there's NO ownership, no notice to customers... to make matters worse, it's the Rogers customers that are left hunting and digging around... So my evening has been shot to heck by this e-mail.

I received this same email..... Tried contacting their "Live Chat" said there is no operators available. Tried FB messanger... no response... Tried Twitter @RogersHelps. Same thing... no dice. Called, I've been on hold for over half an hour. Very odd

Perhaps if someone can get through and talk to a human being, they can enlighten us?

Count me in. I contacted a manager that I speak to and I was told this is a system glitch going around. He said just to ignore it. The system glitches out and sent out a mass email to everyone regarding this.
No one is on anyone's account and it's not fraud.

That is correct as posted on page1 as well. Seems like their systems glitched out and caused this.

I just sent an email to a journalist who wrote a positive article about the President of Rogers, Joe Natale and Customer Service and copied Joe Natale, so let's see what happens.

I get it that Rogers has yet said anything but we know what's wrong. It's a system error and glitch which cause this. It would be great to see Rogers response here though
Nothing will happen. It's funny to see everyone jumping on Rogers when one mistake happens which a system glitched out and caused this. The media won't do anything, the journalist won't do anything.
You will be told it's a glitch and that's all. It's a system issue. Error. Happens to even company once in a while. Best Buy, Apple, Microsoft, Samsung and others have done this. Its a mistake

I get it and That is true however all reps are dealing with everyone calling in, live chat and Facebook / Twitter support is flooded with everyone asking.
I have spoken to one of the social media Rogers reps which says they have over 500 people asking them within 20 minutes of what's going on. It takes time to answer them all. Including the calls too.
I wonder why Rogers hasn't posted something yet. Maybe they are trying to see what is causing this so they can stop it and then say.

Someone here had the right comment. Why is is that the Rogers customers are the ones that have to find the answers as to what happened and then let people know what happened! That is what Rogers is supposed to do

Oh i agree with that. Seems like Rogers failed to send another email or speak out about this issue and had their customers instead figuring it out onntheir own.
I guess it was random and they are scrambling to figure this out instead of letting us know.
