  Troy More (@troymore) reported 5 minutes ago from Saanich, British Columbia

  @Bell_Support 5G in the Gordon Head area of Victoria BC for the past few days is almost unusable. When working, latency is very high and speeds are very slow. Had to drive to a different area just to send this.

  Extremely competent staff: immediately freed my data block and now financing me an iPad Pro at discount from SRP. Bravo @Bell_Support. However we aren’t done with contract scam of slowing the data down when it hits a limit, on an “unlimited” plan

  All I want for Christmas is more than one bar (at best) of cel service in Royal Bay. Get it together, @TELUS /@Bell. I’ll switch to @rogers if they’ll do something about this. 2.5 years of this is ridiculous!

  @davevanman @hkimia @Bell It’s stupid. I’ve been with @Bell for over 15 years and they don’t even want to offer me what a new to @Bell client would get.

  Hi @Bell_Support - If I’d known that you didn’t support Group text Message, I never would’ve left my previous carrier. (My kids don’t have data - a third party messaging app isn’t an option.) #notimpressed

  @hkimia @Bell It is unfortunate because if I cancel my contract (that has expired) I can get the phones for cheaper. I like @bell but I’m not willing to be insulted by them and pay almost twice as much as their competition.

  Imagine calling @Bell about re-upping the contracts for my two phones and they offered me less than a new customer would get and almost twice as much as a competitor because that was just my reality.

  Dear @Bell @Bell_Support If you are having issues with your call answer services maybe you could COMMUNICATE with your customers--after all you ARE a COMMUNICATION company!!! The problem is at your end not ours!!! Two days now I've had to deal with customer support.

  @chiebvka @Highteaspeaks @Bell Very useless network used them for 2 years suddenly your service would disappear for hours.

  @Bell @peterlogz @bill_dub My address is 642 Crozier Rd, Oxford Mills ON K0G 1S0 I asked the rude Team Leader for his boss’ name & number & he refused. He asked for my number & he would call me. No call. I was also without my internet and tv from Thursday afternoon to today at noon. WOW, did I miss it.

  @its_gooseyy @Bell @Bell_Support They’ve been lying to me all week - no phone service. They keep saying it will be fixed - now it’s today by 10pm. A tech in the neighborhood told at least the end of next week. Can’t even speak to someone because they say they are aware - then give a fake date to be fixed.

  @Trevordovsky @Bell The only answer here was to leave…much better service with Roger’s now.

  .@TSN_Sports @Bell_Support Urgent code 5005/500 on Fire TV Stick HD (Wi-Fi 6). Native app live feeds (TSN 1-5) completely broken due to live token validation/DRM failure. VOD works, Android works. Fix your backend, people are missing the World Cup matches they paid for! ⚽📺

  @Highteaspeaks @Bell Phone and plan 60 after tax. This is better than just a 25 after tax plan though. In my opinion. (Works for me anyway). Seems network not too reliable on cheaper plans(20-25 per month plans).

  Today Today, @Bell must lose me as a customer 😭 My condo comes with internet, My workplace has Wi-Fi, I barely travel these days, Yet somehow I’m paying over $90/month for a phone plan, meanwhile I own my phone. My target is to cut that bill by at least 65 or 70% and I must do it TODAY! Canadians, please help me, which carrier gives 20–30GB monthly without requiring me to donate a kidney or any vital *****😭 I’m trying to redirect Bell’s Free Lunch into my investment portfolio🫠
