    Yo @Bell, when someone wants to cancel a service with you, respect their damn decisions and stop calling them 24/7 with "better deals". I hate being disrespectful to people but y'all literally ask for it.

  • bethke

    Bell customer service at an all time low and that's saying something for a company that horrible to begin with. @Bell

    @frpaul1 @MarnaNightingal @MoggyBee @ErikWdV @mhbvickers @cfulgham @ladybugspicnic @cmckenney @JLeiper @Bell @Bell_Support @ncfottawa I say we report every single one of them. I'd like to encourage more tows like Toronto does. Toronto towed a constant FedEx scofflaw. So ticket plus tow plus impound plus customer refunds for missing delivery deadlines equals mucho buckos.

    @sashillington @Bell There is a website on the bottom of the front cover. You have to fill in personal info to opt out. Not cool @Bell To avoid a wasteful delivery I never asked for I have to give you my name address and phone number. Not cool.

    @Bell_Support Any chance you have a widespread outage in Ottawa?

  • moorman_neph
    danielle moorman (@moorman_neph) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Bell it is unclear to me why when cancelling my TV service my internet service has been interrupted this morning - your #CustomerService leaves a lot to be desired. Will be seriously considering an alternate provider in the future

  • OttawaByMike
    Michael Lewicki (@OttawaByMike) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @RogersHelps No. That was not my question: Why, because I pay for your internet AND I’m under 65 years of age is the option to receive paper billing removed? So if I switched my ‘net to @Bell does that mean I could receive paper billing if I cancel a service that is one of your criteria?

  • danauns27
    Dan Auns (@danauns27) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    So, you folks having trouble? @Bell_Support ......trying to watch #HungarianGP #F1 and your service is flakey/bad. #ugh

  • i_am_ryan
    Ryan Matthews (@i_am_ryan) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    It’s now been an hour dealing with @Bell_Support. I’ve spoken to one agent then transferred to “level 2” only to explain my issue again and be told I’ll need to speak to a different “level 2” rep. Been on hold for 36 minutes. Oh and I have to be at the airport in 4 hours.

  • Wanda_Quinn
    Wanda Quinn (@Wanda_Quinn) reported from Gatineau, Quebec

    @Bell_Support Is there an outage in Gatineau?

    @RogersHelps That’s okay, cancelled the service, @Bell_Support is showing up tomorrow afternoon.

    @CraveCanada @Bell uh, guys, it's not live... Send help.

  • RainbowBlazie
    Bradley Marc Bulger (@RainbowBlazie) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Bell I moved from Vanier which has 1.5GB to Ottawa South. 50MB IF I AM LUCKY and I am paying more for a slow garbage speed.

  • krismaheral
    kristina victoria (@krismaheral) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    You know what I miss? UK phone plans. Cheap and reliable. Trying to set one up with @Bell_Support is actually laughable. The way they treat their “preferred customers” is appalling.

  • danauns27
    Dan Auns (@danauns27) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    Ugh. @Bell_Support can't watch the game because your service SUCKS.

  • gunnerdom78
    Dominic Bouchard (@gunnerdom78) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Jessturr @Bell_Support After 3 different agents got disconnected midway and I had to repeat the explanation of the issue and the validation process.... finally fixed last night.

  • Elisa_MacMillan
    Elisa MacMillan (@Elisa_MacMillan) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Bell Hi after 40min in the phone on the phone no help at all! but you will be raising my rate without my consent $3 & $5 more per month! You also double charged me $8 per day for being in the USA and $12 for being in Mexico for the exact same day!

  • peterlevesque
    Peter Norman Levesque (@peterlevesque) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Rogers why has my bill increased by 20% but your customer support is saying you are too busy to respond. @Bell I have never used you for TV and Internet but this might be the time to switch after 30 years at Rogers. Make me an offer.

  • mhbvickers
    Michael H Vickers (@mhbvickers) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @MarnaNightingal @frpaul1 @MoggyBee @ErikWdV @MichaelSuddard @cfulgham @ladybugspicnic @cmckenney @JLeiper @Bell @Bell_Support @ncfottawa The same is true of various other service & delivery companies As much as they will apologize when you call them on it, couriers in particular, clearly rely on breaking the law Probably not explicit policy, but I imagine it's baked into their "deliver quick at all costs" ethos

    @Bell_Support why does it take over 20 mins for someone to answer tech support?!? So frustrating

  • ocp_sumit
    The Last of us!! (@ocp_sumit) reported

    @bellcanadahater @Bell Worst tech support. Transferred me to 4 different people within 2 hours, each of them left no notes on the account and I ended up doing same thing for each of them still no resolution and was asked to pay 75cad for a technician visit.

  • JamesRRubec
    James Rubec (@JamesRRubec) reported

    I woke up at 6 a.m. after a family roadtrip to try to resolve this with your 6 a.m. call line. Your chat support is even worse. @Bell_Support When we really need you you throw bots at us.

  • missesja33
    L (@missesja33) reported

    @Bell 14 years with you and you still cannot give a good rate (even new customers get better plans) anyways you will be losing a customer. So fed up with the BS offers like how you’re offering me $70 for the same plan that others give for $40.

  • ConsumerCSI
    Consumer Affairs (@ConsumerCSI) reported

    @Bell Bell Canada is the worst company ever. No company in the history of Canada has put more effort into the exact opposite of customer service. It's a disrespect of the customer that goes above and beyond greed. It's evil. #Shame

  • RichFriars
    R I C H (@RichFriars) reported

    Trying to get @Bell to service my area but they don’t seem to be interested.

  • Violet_71
    Linda (@Violet_71) reported

    Hey @Bell, thanks for wasting my time. I took a day off work for an installation appointment that was cancelled without any explanation. No notice, no accommodation, no attempt to make it right. If this is how Bell treats potential customers why would anyone switch? #Fail
