Bell Canada Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • MeanGirlGremlin HALLOWEEN! (@MeanGirlGremlin) reported

    @bell, @CraveTVHelp, We are now more than halfway through a week of my #CraveTV service being largely non-functioning. I hope that this period will be credited back to me, and if we surpass a week, I will demand it. Nice phone support, btw. Spent 15 minutes on hold, then dropped.

  • PXAbstraction Parallax Abstraction (@PXAbstraction) reported

    @willhaggerty @Bell It looks like there's potential for this to be one of those studies. I still wouldn't do it but that changes the impact of it. Thing is, Bell never mentions that once in their email.

  • JustWantToQ1 Selenium Plain (@JustWantToQ1) reported

    @Bell_Support Imagine if I didn't have LTE internet to contact you.. how would I fix this?

  • mhharvey Martin Harvey 🇨🇦 (@mhharvey) reported

    @Bell_Support Maybe a dumb question but I have just acquired a Wi-Fi Pod to amplify/boost my signal throughout my residence. It logs into my main WiFi SSID however, I assume my Guest WiFi account is also equally amplified?

  • bishop_evan Evan Bishop (@bishop_evan) reported

    @Bell_Support what’s the issue with the internet in St Catharines, Ontario? I’m at work, and we’re unable to process debit/credit payments, and our internet is completely offline. Any idea when that’s going to be fixed?

  • FadedSpark Corey Owen (@FadedSpark) reported

    @Bell_Support Multiple devices, multiple people, multiple accounts. It’s not an individual issue. The issue has been intermittent today as well but not nearly as bad as yesterday.

  • IronOmie Dianne (@IronOmie) reported

    @leftbobgolfer @DocAtCDI @Bell I left them a while ago. Had home phone, 2 cell phones (son), satellite and internet. Worst customer service ever!!!

  • PXAbstraction Parallax Abstraction (@PXAbstraction) reported

    @human3500 @OpenMediaOrg @Bell If there was any other option but Bell Fiber that provided the speeds I require where I am, I would use it. But I'm sure the CRTC will ensure that never happens.

  • tAgS87 Andrew Taggart (@tAgS87) reported

    We pay almost $200/month for @Bell Fibe and i still had to stream the @MapleLeafs game tonight because my package doesn't include SNO. Garbage. Canceling this dumpster fire of a service

  • FadedSpark Corey Owen (@FadedSpark) reported

    @Bell_Support Functionally useless data speeds, usually Sub 1mbps over the last week or so. Noticed mostly at work (catarqui centre Kingston) while on break. So bad you can't even send an iMessage most of the time.

  • Nireremlap Erin Palmer 🇨🇦 (@Nireremlap) reported

    @Bell please explain why you don’t allow fast-forwarding or rewinding on some shows. So if I miss something because of poor sound or whatever my only option is to watch the whole thing again from the start? Ridiculous.

  • anoklol anok (@anoklol) reported

    @Bell @agilities @TorontoDefiant wtf is skinny reetlol doin on my TL

  • Elvenborn Denny (@Elvenborn) reported

    @Bell_Support you have the most horrible customer service. Switched to Bell 3 months ago and ready to cancel all of my services. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone at all

  • AlyeshaRose Alyesha Rose (@AlyeshaRose) reported

    @Bell_Support My internet is down again. I’ve had more than 5 technicians come to my damn house to “fix” my internet. What kind of service are you guys providing? #Bell #bellcanada

  • TheTerribleHook The Terrible Hook (@TheTerribleHook) reported

    @cogecohelps That means I'd have to switch my email address for an untold number of services. I don't think I have any choice but to cancel this move from @Bell and lose out on hundreds of dollars in savings every month. This seems ridiculous to me. #Cogeco #CogecoHelps

  • PierrePooper Hair Suit Shoedini (@PierrePooper) reported

    @Bell_Support your installation vehicle cruising wrong way down my one way street looking at his phone. White minivan plate number 570 7ZE. This is ridiculous.

  • jsvhreborn The Professional (@jsvhreborn) reported

    @Bell_Support internet cable cut by a local contractor 5 times in 4 mnths Why more then 24 hours to send a technician to fix it ? I lose two days of work $240 a month you wonder why people are switching to alternative options and dropping Terrestrial services ? #Analysis

  • CanadianGirlGta Andy (@CanadianGirlGta) reported

    @Rogers please hire more customer support representatives... being on the phone for over 2 hours each call makes me want to switch to @Bell

  • mightysun1 mightysun (@mightysun1) reported

    @Bell I'm very upset wth the service you provided to this request BCMSVDHS. How dare you cancel, as it was supposed to be connected tomorrow. #customerexperience #Toronto

  • TWSheppard Tom Sheppard (@TWSheppard) reported

    @PXAbstraction @Bell Your connection should be free for the duration of the monitoring. That would ensure they don't let it drag out. "Oopsies, did we forget to end the monitoring? Our bad!"

  • jsvhreborn The Professional (@jsvhreborn) reported

    @Bell_Support Done. I hope this can present itself as a good news opportunity for great customer service.

  • evilmadcap Terry (@evilmadcap) reported

    @Bell_Support Land Lines down in Ontario anywhere?

  • human3500 Human 3500 (@human3500) reported

    @PXAbstraction @OpenMediaOrg @Bell They already Snoop your traffic on their network, but now they will Snoop traffic that doesn't even leave your house. Also, of course they are serious. This is why I cut Bell out completely over ten years ago.

  • TheRevenite TheRevenite (@TheRevenite) reported

    @PXAbstraction @Bell My modem does this already. Hell, I don't know of a modem that doesn't log the types of data used and monitor the up and down stream speeds. Hell, QoS pretty much does this if it's on, so the only reason to ad that device is because Bell doesn't want to get on hot water sharing

  • CanadianGirlGta Andy (@CanadianGirlGta) reported

    @Rogers been trying to change my account for over a year. With constant phone calls lasting over 2 hours... tried to cancel my service multiple times to switch to @Bell with special promotions added to my account. Non of which have been added to my account.

  • PaulWil53011893 Paul Wilson (@PaulWil53011893) reported

    @Bell worst company I’ve ever had the displeasure of not doing business with, twice didn’t show up to do an install, didn’t have no prior warning - joke of a company. Typical example of what is wrong with Canada in 2021

  • DPocroianu Warrior Of Truth (@DPocroianu) reported

    @harleyriding99 Bullies @bell are just terrible people that get payed to exploit & intimidate workers like me that dare to speak up. I think its shameless how they been fighting one sick woman like me all these years & keep adding insult to injury like they did by taking these money w no warning

  • TWSheppard Tom Sheppard (@TWSheppard) reported

    @PXAbstraction @Bell But that should be typical of a gamer, and gaming is very popular, so I suspect there are many users transferring large amounts of data. And so does streaming 4K, which I do more and more. BUT, that means nothing to the network until it starts running near capacity.

  • saschasegan Sascha Segan (@saschasegan) reported

    @iansltx @Bell I know, I've requested a fix

  • Septembersphere Kevin September (@Septembersphere) reported

    Can’t believe the horrible and somewhat ridiculous #customerservice / disservice I’ve experienced with @Bell / @Bell_Support today 📲 Sorry I left @TELUS as #Bell wasn’t worth the #savings they offered 🤑
