    @Reil76 @Bell Had issues at the cottage with the receiver. Called support 4 times!! Finally asked to have someone go out. Tech said there was no reason they couldn't resolve it. Also let us know that all support is done from the Philippines & they're #1 goal is to get you off the line ASAP.

    @michaelcoren @Bell Yes.... apparently it's a Bell Issue that they are working on. This is from Tech Support. "Thanks for reaching out. This is a known issue affecting some Sympatico email users, and our teams are actively working to resolve it. The estimated resolution time is 10 PM tonight."

    @K38Tweets @Reil76 @Bell This is all the fault of Compaq and HP who started ****** IT support and passed it off like a flu to other tech companies.

    ya know where CANADA is in TROUBLE? Our MAJOR CANADIAN MEDIA GIANTS like @ROGERS @BELL rely on those people down south for 90% of their CONTENT. IF we stop being FREINDS it could COST these companies HUGE $$. So WHOSE SIDE are they on? They gonna EFF us UP to stay ALIVE????

    @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.

    As a Saskatchewan resident, I never expected to be contemplating switching to Rogers Wireless. But @Bell, your latest decision to cap the amount of data one can use on hotspot in a month is downright boneheaded and @TELUS is no better (having made the same decision).

  • RobertRabi7

    @Reil76 @Bell I've had a Rogers plan for 5 years, the speed is 2 gigabytes, and I haven't had any problems. I pay $65 a month and the speed is stable, even though I live in an old building.

    @virginmedia The delayed call back does not change corp. #customerservice practice or reduce long lead times plaguing @Bell - ANSWERING customer calls when called is needed. - Stopping the use of unproven AI. - Address consistent #customersupport deficiencies reported online.

    @Bell it shouldn’t take 6 days to fix email

    @Bell Unless you’re going to fix the issue of cell service in the province there’s nothing to discuss. This isn’t an issue isolated to a few people. As previous posters have said. 1st world prices for 3rd world service. I actually had better cell service when I was in Cuba.

  • Zubes22
    Bobby (@Zubes22) reported

    @Bell the absolute worst. They’ve admitted they’re wrong for months but still have charges on our bill that are unjustified. They have now cut our cell service while we wait “for the next billing cycle for changes to take effect”. I’ve spent 5 hours on this already! @bell sucks!

    @bell Can't work from home because I haven't had internet for 3 days. Bell says they don't have a crew that can run an internet cable from a pole across the street to my home. They also can't give me a date when they can fix this. I want a discount on my internet bill.

  • JanceyLu

    @Reil76 @Bell We just had an issue with Bell. Lost service during a storm. Called, told us we needed a new router. Went to the store. They couldn't find our account in their system. Odd. They can always find us when it's time to pay. 3 trips to Bell before we got the router. Still no internet.

    @halanderson @Bell_MTS They will leave your account active. Yes, that is a risk to you, your identity, and finances. No, it does not matter how many time you ask them to delete it. NEVER @Bell

    @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

  • NoSacredBeliefs

    @Bell And DM'd you were... And unsurprisingly, you have no solutions. You discovered that life in Canada is expensive and so people are cutting down on expenses where they can... But you couldn't possibly have that. So now you seek to curtail one's ability to use their hotspot to try and drive people to take on Home Internet service... Something you don't even provide in the province of Saskatchewan. Interesting times when you opt to make your service delivery worse than Rogers.

  • shortstuffpb

    @Reil76 @Bell There's a faulty connection for the input signal somewhere, causing it to drop. When I had it happen, it was actually the modem, itself, but I had to totally spell out all the troubleshooting steps I'd taken to get them to listen to me.

    @Cat4714 @Martyupnorth @Bell Telus is worse. Hubby was paying over $100. Had a special for seniors we could get for US/Mex calling. Down to $45/mo but on phone for over 1 hour. I'm sure call was to india celebrating daliwall in background. Painful

    hello folks, @Bell_Support - i got a gift card (prepaid visa) last year when i signed up for the internet service - however, i was unable to redeem it and i only realized recently that i didn't reach out to you guys - please let me know what can be done about this, thank you!! :)

    Tl;dr I walked into @Bell walk-in store at Sherway Gardens mall to try and cancel my services for both Television and Internet services. However! I was told by the store staff that I can only contact @Bell through phone numbers to arrange my cancellation services.

    @Bell Good Lord!! I have had a landline at my cottage for years. Last 10 years I have to call at beginning of season because of loud hum on line. I had tech out yesterday. Phone worked for 1 F’ing day!!! Today loud hum. I pay $57+/month for a phone I can’t use! Time to cancel!

    @Reil76 @Bell Bell sent me to collections for failing to return equipment during Covid, when stores wouldn't accept it and they didn't send labels to mail it back. Everything about Bell sucks, and their fees are outrageous. Good luck!

    Hey @Bell does 30 yrs of loyalty mean nothing? My parents have no land line and no one is going out to help them!!
