@dfaminoff78 -- would I still be on the hook for the large cancellation fee if I dump Shaw and go back to Telus?
Yes, a contract is a contract.
However, twice this year, as recently as last week, TELUS has offered me a "buy out" of the remaining months of my two-year Value Plan, if I switch to TELUS. I presume that TELUS would give me 9*$20 of "credit", rather than "cash", if I signed a 2 (or was it 3?) year contract.
