Rogers identifies and corrects billing inaccuracy affecting up to five percent of customers

TORONTO, June 18 /CNW/ – Rogers Communications Inc. said today that it
is correcting a billing inaccuracy affecting some current and former
customers participating in the Better Choice Bundles™
discount program.

“Once we identified the issue, we initiated a comprehensive review of
current and former customer accounts to identify those that were not
correctly billed,” said Phil Hartling, Senior Vice President, Consumer
Segment, Rogers Communications Inc. “We have been working around the
clock to make this right and we apologize to our affected customers.”

Approximately 200,000 customers, who received greater discounts than
they were eligible for, will have their historical under-payments waived
and the correct discount applied moving forward. The Company will refund
approximately $30 million in total, including interest and taxes, to
approximately 300,000 under-discounted customers. The inaccuracy, which
arose as a result of administrative error and system related issues,
varies for each customer depending on their tenure in the Better
Choice Bundles discount program and the number of services they have.

There is no action required by customers. Affected customers will be
notified by letter starting June 22 and the correct discount will be
applied within their next two bills. Existing under-discounted customers
will receive a credit on their account while former under-discounted
customers will receive a cheque. Any unclaimed funds by former customers
will be donated to charity.

Rogers has briefed the Commissioner for Complaints for
Telecommunications Services to ensure customers have an informed third
party to approach should they remain dissatisfied with the steps taken
by the Company. The Company has also hired PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
(PwC) to provide an independent analysis of the relevant billing data.
Rogers has enhanced its processes and is implementing safeguards to help
prevent a recurrence including the roll out of an employee re-training
program, the introduction of a daily audit to review new customers
joining the program and implementing recommendations identified by PwC.
These steps will help ensure each new bundled customer is accurately
billed.

Rogers introduced the Better Choice Bundles program to offer
customers a discount when they purchase two or more eligible
communications services with a two-year contract term and a consolidated
monthly invoice. For more information visit www.rogers.com/bcbupdate.
