    @cogeco @cogeco Could you please have your sales folks stop knocking on my door constantly? I got rid of Epico because it is the worst streaming service ever. I hear it is not improved.

    @cogecohelps Everyone I speak to from @cogeco says all the right things… then nothing happens. It actually said in the work order that 2 techs are required. One showed up. This is the 3rd time this exact problem has occurred.

    @cogeco You know what else nobody likes? Every customer service agent at your company to be Indian, without exception. We want people who can speak English.

    @cogecohelps @cogeco You admit to a new cellular customer your service is problematic atm and won’t change anytime soon in regards to coverage etc but won’t give me a months credit for absolutely bargain basement service after 4 agents and 45 minutes on hold? #cogecomobile

    @__m3lisssa No I don't pay for it. But I do have sportsnet with my cogeco package and used my cogeco login

    .@cogeco on hold. But good news I can press 1 to set up a call back and they commit to calling back within 24-48 HOURS. Are you ******* kidding me?? That is not how callbacks work you morons. Your epico service is garbage and your customer service is WORSE than garbage!!

    Hey @cogeco 🇨🇦 You are by far the worst internet provider out there. I’ve had no internet or cable for over 24 hours now, and your service has become completely unreliable time and time again. After this, I’ll be switching to @Starlink. Thanks for making the decision easy 👍

  • GregGilhooly
    Greg Gilhooly (@GregGilhooly) reported

    I’m on hold trying to get an @cogeco technical issue resolved. Not only are there no humans to pick up the call, but the recorded messages they play while on hold are computer generated and mis-pronounce both “wi-fi” and the name of the company itself. It’s bizarre and awful.

    @cogeco better have service running for the game. Its been 15 hrs! Although storm is out of their hands, 2 minutes on hold to find out my postal code area still has outage is an unnecessary time grab. Add this to the other 364 days the service sucks. @CRTCeng

  • quietlybless
    Norm (@quietlybless) reported

    Just another day woth @cogeco but you pay through the a** for the service. No credit and misogynistic CS. " In My culture , we don't speak that way". Sorry i don't fit into your nigerian culture.

    @cogecohelps @cogeco I called Cogeco before about some issue. When I got a call back I was driving my car! Hardly useful. Yes they renewed a backyard cable (which should have been checked on installation!). I guess you get what you pay for

    @cogeco is so inept. Customer service does not exist. 3 hours on the phone and not one person seems to know who is responsible for what.

  • sylvestor1967
    chad (@sylvestor1967) reported

    @ryangerritsen It took me 4 hours on the phone and 3 weeks later I finally got Cogeco to stop my service. There are rules on the books now but they have you got around and around leading nowhere. This is why we need competition up here for the 3 big suppliers to shake in their boots.

    @GregGilhooly @cogeco Cogeco was aweful 20+ years ago when I was at Fleming. Hope you get your issue dealt with

  • MUgowanne
    SAF (@MUgowanne) reported

    @cogeco I have been trying to cancel my service and I have tried to call for over two weeks and a rep ends up transferring me to an extension nobody picks! Seems like I am forced to keep a service. I just got a bill asking me to pay when I already returned the modem. Kindly fix

    Hi @cogeco @cogecohelps today is the 2nd day I get internet service interruptions. You only get 3 strikes and I go shop somewhere else.

  • carol_nasvytis

    @peggy_blair It’s ridiculous. Like when I called Cogeco to negotiate a better deal - I was told the advertised rates were only for new customers. So I became an former customer and switched to Bell now that bill is going through the roof. I don’t want to play this game 😡 Just stop gouging me

    @ReclaimTheNetHQ I'm not hearing much opposition from the major internet service providers like Bell, Rogers, Telus, Videotron, Cogeco, Eastlink in regard to bill c-22. So I guess they are all in?

  • John_Bug
    John Bugailiskis (@John_Bug) reported

    Update. After over 2 days without service it has been restored. Apparently another Cogeco tech physically cut the connection to their terminal box. How does that happen and why could your system not detect it? Finally, when will I be refunded?

    @cogecohelps I don't let anyone push me around but I push back with a custom-made style that's "Deadpool meets Downton Abbey", Jodi. I even have a service award for it. #Cogeco

    Come on @cogeco no service since 12:08 this afternoon and every time I check it’s later and later on the estimated time of restoration

    @telMAX_Inc I just lost internet and telephone service because of your fibre installation crew (@AeconGroupInc). Not impressed. @cogeco are sending a technician on Friday. Today is Tuesday. Unimpressed with the lot of you. 3 of my neighbours have had the same experience.

  • _nekojima_
    nekojima (@_nekojima_) reported

    @peggy_blair Freedom calls with offers, even when it lowers my bill & better plan. When Cogeco increased, I checked site and got the best offer for 20 months for the same service. I called Rogers for my parents and lowered their bill by $60+. Calling and asking seems to helps us.

  • quietlybless
    Norm (@quietlybless) reported

    @handiclapper @cogeco @CRTCeng He said he's a Canadian born Nigerian.But again , if you're educated in the school system and bothered to get to know or hang around another culture , your accent isn't as thick as those that just arrived here. Never. This woman just didn't speak the way he liked.

    Months later and @cogeco still can't figure out its issues with @CNBC . Regular blue screen of "technical difficulties."

  • christiancont
    HumbertOst (@christiancont) reported

    @cogecohelps If you work from home, DO NOT GO WITH COGECO. The service quality and technical support are AWFUL. After days of multiple calls and even a technician visit, no one has been able to fix the issue to provide at least a decent, stable internet connection. STAY AWAY FROM COGECO!
