  • DeannaWhiteCA Deanna White ~ Brand Marketer (@DeannaWhiteCA) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Clyde_1957 @Bell_Support As a bell customer for many (too many) years, I’ve leaned this is not an issue at my end. Understand Bell expects it to be up and running in the next hour so. And yes - message should change so new customers don’t go messing with their passwords.

  • Glenn_A_Johnson Glenn Johnson (@Glenn_A_Johnson) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @RogersHelps one day after changing our modem, our wifi is down AGAIN, continuation of an ongoing problem NOT solved @Rogers. It may be time to switch to @Bell

  • MayoBruce Bruce Mayo (@MayoBruce) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @KeepYerHeadOn @Bell Jonker said 10 trucks from his company Jonker Trucking Inc. participated in the full threeweek protest, shutting down city streets near Parliament Hill until they were forced to leave on the weekend. Two of his trucks were towed and impounded.

  • Diana_fierce1 Diana Farah (@Diana_fierce1) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Jennjo22 @Bell I called to cancel in July after finally getting in touch them but they did not cancel my service. I have been with them for over 10 years and all original equip and still paying exorbitant $ I hate the process of calling, they absolutely suck and cannot speak directly with mgt.

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

    @Bell_Support Is there an outage in Gatineau?

  • 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?

  • JaszyPaton Jasmine E. Paton (@JaszyPaton) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    Our @Bell internet went down this AM, and now we have to wait for two days for a technician to call us to schedule a time to come to our home… that turnaround time is too long! 😡 #frustrated

  • StephaneOCH_LCO Stéphane Giguère (@StephaneOCH_LCO) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @myworldtaw @Bell Can be worst : change provider … 4 hours between Bell and Vidéotron for my father’s cell

  • Smardie96 ~OttawaGirl~ (@Smardie96) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    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.

  • BeaverOntario J̶O̸N̶ (@BeaverOntario) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @DaryRezvani Now that they have @Bell behind them, they can do anything they want, big coin BELL is like Canada's AT&T - giant telecom/media conglomerate! They own the cellphone towers, a sports network, news, satellites, streaming company, etc etc etc They rent the US rights to HULU

  • DeannaWhiteCA Deanna White ~ Brand Marketer (@DeannaWhiteCA) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Bell_Support bell internet is outage in Ottawa! 30 minutes ago! K2P fix it ASAP

  • chrishofley Chris Hofley (@chrishofley) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @orbit_matt @hydroottawa @Bell Yelling at anyone's social media crew isn't helpful. They aren't the ones responsible for fixing the issue.

  • WeakTimeRunning Dustin Gavin (@WeakTimeRunning) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    Hey, @Bell @Rogers. I'm unable to talk to my parents in Prince Edward Island due to damage caused by #hurricanFiona. Please do your best to get them and everyone else connected to your networks. Thank you.

  • DannyOnThat DannyOnThat (@DannyOnThat) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Bell You fired Lisa Laflame and you are nothing but crooks, never again will I do business with your company or any of your subsidiaries like The Source or ant others of yours… Bye Bye ANYTHING “Bell”!!!

  • Diana_fierce1 Diana Farah (@Diana_fierce1) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Jennjo22 @Bell I believe you, I am having such a hard time with them. Tried to cancel but they still have not. Where to go? Any suggestions?

  • PerrySabourin Perry Sabourin (@PerrySabourin) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

  • r58r58 r58r58 (@r58r58) reported

    @Bell_Support Restored but my audio keeps cutting out for 2 or 3 seconds about every 2 minutes. Anyone else having this problem?

  • QuinteFan 2of7 (@QuinteFan) reported

    No power and no cell service means NO ABILITY to contact emergency services. A wired phone is no longer an option according to Bell due to “upgrades” to the system. This senior is furious. @Bell_Support @bellcanadalies

  • CPbkfan BKFAN 🇨🇦🇺🇦 (@CPbkfan) reported

    @Bell_Support Generators, ever heard of them? 2.87 B in profits and still running your business like it's 1950. Deplorable customer service.

  • BIGBLACKCRYPTOE BIGBLACKCRYPTO.ETH (@BIGBLACKCRYPTOE) reported

    Any other @Bell users notice how targeted the #DougFord ads are.... i keep getting attack ads.... when i clearly don't like the man. This is why i never approved of the targeted marketing. #BellLetsTalk Review your data & break their algorithms folks. #VoteFordOutJune2

  • Citizen19841984 Mike (@Citizen19841984) reported

    @Bell_Support @Bell Day 3 of no internet and still no explanation about what the issue is or when it will be fixed. I’ve just called your competitor and they are coming to install my new internet service tomorrow. What a joke Bell is…

  • QuinteFan 2of7 (@QuinteFan) reported

    @Bell_Support Did you even read the tweet? It’s not about the outage, it’s about the fact that power-independent communication is no longer an option.

  • Citizen19841984 Mike (@Citizen19841984) reported

    @Bell_Support @Bell Still no internet service - still no idea what’s wrong and why it’s taking so long. The internet worked fine for 8 hours following the storm and now hasn’t worked for over 48 hours. Obviously the storm didn’t cause catastrophic damage if the internet worked for 8 hours following

  • BoneyWashington Boney Washington * T O U R S U P P O R T (@BoneyWashington) reported

    @Bell how long is this going to take ..? Haven't been able to make a call since Saturday this is actually effecting my job and livelihood ? Are we getting reimbursed for this down time ?

  • eightdeck Cait (@eightdeck) reported

    @Bell_Support if the power is restored, but the WAN light is flashing.. is that a widespred or "me" issue (asking for a friend)

  • GladysRBates142 Gladys R. Bates 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 (@GladysRBates142) reported

    @Rogers, @Bell, other service providers: listen up. How about giving free service to Ottawa + Uxbridge or anywhere there is significant storm damage? People might go over there allowed minutes to deal with problems. Have a heart for God’s sakes!
