    @Bell_Support Tried activating the $15 BYOD Smartwatch Standalone plan as a new customer. Website says it’s allowed, but phone support & stores keep passing me back & forth because your system forces a smartphone IMEI. Left on hold for over an hour. Please DM to fix this.

    @Bell_Support @Bell_Aliant Are you having issues in the sackville/Beaverbank area? Our wifi is continually dropping and terribly slow!!!

    @Bell sucks! Agent that’s helping to fix my modem ends the call and doesn’t call back, they sent a defective modem and want me to pick up a new one! store doesn’t have it available, new one ships in 1 or 2 days, no options to get a tech to come, no internet to work… A joke.

    @DemorestKe48215 @Reil76 @Bell It’s so true. They hold such a monopoly that they just don’t give a damn.

    @Bell @Bell_Support I tried to log into my sympatico account to check emails, but got an error message "You have entered invalid credentials. Please try again." Is it just me or it's a technical issue on Bell's site?

    @broddy83 @Reil76 @Bell i’m on the fence about switching to fibre since they are installing it on my street. it is a lot faster but i don’t want to switch from cable and have these issues.

    @Reil76 @Bell Lose the wire and get Starlink. Rogers/Shaw has issues here between copper thieves and strong winds causing unstable internet. I’ll bypass them both.

    @Bell @telus @Rogers please explain why you scam Canadians while we get the same service or better in the UK for cheap?

    @Aaron_Rosenthal @CTV @Bell They’re just reprinting a Canadian Press wire service story & headline Canadian Press is owned jointly by 3 major Canadian media companies: Globe & Mail, Torstar Corp, & Square Victoria Communications Group (which owns La Presse). CTV/Bell are only guilty of laziness here

    @ShawDirect I have been trying to deal with your website for 2 days and been on hold for over 2 hours. Your service sucks. @Bell thinking strongly about switching

  • L0rdGrim1
    LordGrim (@L0rdGrim1) reported

    Way to go @Bell thanks for sending a technician out to install internet. They came back twice with the same problem and no solution, then ghosted me. I then chose Primus, and yet again, your Bell technicians are screwing me over, as the tentative date is now September 1st. Ffs

    @TSN_Sports @Bell this is absolute bullshit putting nascar behind a paywall. how ******** is the older demo going to figure out how to put the race on. Just kill the sport in Canada.

    @Bell How are you going to help me if you reject my calls? You have charged me for equipment I returned via Purolator and they confirmed they returned to you. After a week of your robot denying to transfer me to an agent I want to cancel all my services. Maybe I should ask my bank

    @Reil76 @Bell I left bell a long time ago for the same reasons. I switched over to Roger’s, even tho I hate them too, I’ve had zero issues for years now.

    @TSN_Sports TSN requires an extra 8 dollar subscription to access this content. Really? So even with a channel subscription I can't watch a Canadian competing? Go **** yourselves you greedy ******** #Tennis #Cincinnati @Bell @BellMediaPR #Shapovalov

    After having dealt with the recent products and services of @Bell I see why your stock price has been a dog for half a decade. Down -47% in 5 years (during the greatest bull market ever mind you) & management doesn’t take the hint. Your company invented the telephone. Do better.

    @infamousadam13 @Reil76 @Bell I have multiple post secondary educations in computer engineering and I get audibly upset when I get talked down to by some IT **** asking me if I tried turning it off and on again

    @Reil76 @Bell We're still waiting to hear from @Bell regarding our fibre internet installation. We only finally got a line strung parallel to our old one about a month ago, but no new modem and still running off the old DSL crap. Topnotch service. 👍

    @Bell Your loyalty team is brutal You dont care about customers or excellent customer service They hung up on me after giving me the insulting offer and no call back Funny you dont want to help me out now after 6 hours on the phone, and when I leave you will call daily for a month

    @Reil76 @SnarkusAurelius @Bell My father knew one of the local Bell Computer Engineers and flagged him down as he drove past my parent's place, in order to get an issue resolved that the client service reps and regular field techs couldn't solve. Bell kindly asked him not to do that again.

    @SensCentral @Senators @Bell You should have grilled him on your podcast why did he cave in to Brady so fast and never gotten a solid player in return!? I would have traded him to any team that gives our team full value in return! They took advantage of an amateur GM and pres of hockey ops w no nhl pedigree
