  • petriedish Petra Leinemann (@petriedish) reported

    @Shawhelp On Demand is missing a bunch of episodes from @prodigalsonfox Season 2 on Global. Available episodes jump from 7 to 11...8 thru 10 are missing. Can you help?

  • srose180 easy R. (@srose180) reported

    @Shawhelp help again 😭

  • publishingrenee Renée Layberry (@publishingrenee) reported

    @Shawhelp We just reset the modem. It's working again for now hut we've no idea when it'll go down again. 4 times we've had to reset in the last 3 days. Twice today. It's clearly a modem problem. Shaw needs to replace the modem ASAP. Like, by tomorrow. Friday is not acceptable.

  • jodyvance Jody Vance (@jodyvance) reported

    @Nancy_Simonetta @Shawhelp Not NEW. First modem .... I ordered service FIVE weeks ago. Was immediately charged - but received zero equipment. Until today. Again: employee CHRISI650 is a goddamn hero.

  • AliKira Ali Grotkowski (@AliKira) reported

    @Shawhelp our internet speed is so slow right now that we cannot work from home effectively. DM sent. Please help? We should have Gig+ speeds.

  • Improjoe Improjoe (@Improjoe) reported

    @pastayoyo @Shawhelp I wonder if @TELUSsupport would do that to their customers. I’ve never had an problem like this before with them! 👀

  • amandaburkebiz Amanda Burke (@amandaburkebiz) reported

    @Shawhelp Thank you for the prompt reply this morning. Got tech support right away and they were great.

  • CornwallisDevon Devon Cornwallis (@CornwallisDevon) reported

    @Shawhelp I am not asking an account specific question Blair :) I was just hoping that an open public discussion could help other customers, surely that would would be a good thing ?

  • fiacc Fiacc O'Brien Moran (@fiacc) reported

    @Shawhelp widespread slowdown on bowen island, multiple people reporting, your chat support can't seem to understand the concept of a widespread outage.

  • publishingrenee Renée Layberry (@publishingrenee) reported

    Disgusted with @Shawhelp who told us on Saturday, when our internet went down, that they can't send a tech with a new modem until this Friday. My husband and I both work from home. Totally unacceptable. Just send someone over to drop off a new modem, FFS!

  • AndisonSullivan Egg (@AndisonSullivan) reported

    @Shawhelp Shaw is just bleh. Never get speed that where advertised, most days the internet is out more then not

  • vutangclan2 Vu Nguyen (@vutangclan2) reported

    @Shawhelp I’m at work with no internet now going on 5 hours. Your help desk says no tech can come until tomorrow. Anyway you can speed it up? Losing time to bid on work, invoice customers and we’ve gone back to paper work orders.

  • AdultInDaRoom D S (@AdultInDaRoom) reported

    @ShawInfo ... why no internet connection? You have no phone support. Your chat bot and people can’t do anything because of a “maintenance issue”. Seriously WTF?! Is this how you respect customers? If we are disposable after thoughts, what do you think that makes you?

  • S_P_Patrick Steven Patrick (@S_P_Patrick) reported

    @Shawhelp hey my dudes... my cable is down atm. You guys having issues in SW Yeg?

  • fiacc Fiacc O'Brien Moran (@fiacc) reported

    @mintsource @Shawhelp True, but presumably something is broken. You'd think they would want to fix it.

  • srose180 easy R. (@srose180) reported

    @Shawhelp I am sending you a dm as I am still having issue with my Shaw on demand

  • Gregeezer Greg Nicholson (@Gregeezer) reported

    @Shawhelp Hi. Messaged you here about 10 hours ago, kinda need short answer soon as I might want to cancel tech home visit.

  • CornwallisDevon Devon Cornwallis (@CornwallisDevon) reported

    @Shawhelp We are moving to Ont., cancelled service, were told we owned equipment, then got a robocall saying we didn't and had to return tech...we have scrapped it ! Have been going around in circles on the phone WTF!? #Shawsajoke #Shawsux

  • CornwallisDevon Devon Cornwallis (@CornwallisDevon) reported

    @Shawhelp No...Public works for me. Question....Forget that one dept. told us we owned the tech then another said we didn't, just answer me Y you want a 15 y o modem back that was giving us crappy service? Why can't I just recycle it?

  • NatalieL72 Nat The Steeped Tea Addict (@NatalieL72) reported

    @Shawhelp Hi, I am experiencing service outage. I tried rebooting. Cable, internet, and phone is down. Is there any info on what is happening or how long until service is restored?

  • mintsource dan (@mintsource) reported

    @fiacc @Shawhelp well the thing is technically it's not an outage as it's still working... it's just we are getting unusable download speeds of 1.7mbps rather than the ~100-600mbps we are paying for.

  • DeanEdmonton Dean Edmonton (@DeanEdmonton) reported

  • fiacc Fiacc O'Brien Moran (@fiacc) reported

    @Shawhelp widespread slowdown on bowen island, multiple people reporting, chat support pretending it's not an outage

  • fiacc Fiacc O'Brien Moran (@fiacc) reported

    @mintsource @Shawhelp They just dm'd me to say there isn't an outage.... Which there is because we're reporting it.
