    @cogecohelps Why does one of our channels cut out in the middle of a show and go to a cogeco ad?? Numerous times.

    @cogeco don’t ever waste your money! They’re a fraud company. They won’t even let you cancel the service or answer the phone!! 💩

    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?

    @cogeco down now 36 hours. Internet down but cogeco says, "having an issue go to cogeco online" . How idiotic. Requested technical support(#5) but after 3 minute message..." customer service is closed" with a quick hang up. No cs during outage??? @crtc

    Wow @cogeco @cogecohelps outage during Masters. It's like the old days of failures middle of Super Bowls middle of Tyson fight. How many 9's do you provide? Five 9s? Four? Three 9s?

    @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!

    @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?

    @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

    @cogeco Just got off the chat with one of your very unhelpful support staff. I truly wonder you’d need me to type out every single information on my profile when you can send me a security code for my confirmation using my name and ac number ive given. I may have to jump ship

    @cogeco there is a outage in the L8J2p2 area of Stoney Creek that started at 11:08am this morning, but nothing on the outage page.

    @oiler3535 @cogeco @CNBC I have been having the same problem for about 6 months as you described. Did you ever get this resolved?

  • rraj2k12

    @cogecohelps Once I opened a ticket and Cogeco recognized the outage, they resolved it. But, your support should not have waited for a customer to convince you of an outage in your own network. Aren't you monitoring your network for outages and impact 24/7 ?

    @cogecohelps My COGECO Internet is not working. This is happening very often. Now even after repeated resets it still not working. Unable to contact support which keeps asking for personal ID number which is not provided. On the App the AI assistant is useless

  • John_Bug
    John Bugailiskis (@John_Bug) reported

    @cogeco Pretty disappointed in Cogeco's tech support. Lost internet, tv and phone early this morning and told they can't get anyone over until Sat. That's over 48 hrs without being able to call 911 in the event of an emergency.

    I just ate a granola bar. Instead of throwing the wrapper in the garbage I threw it at my Cogeco router. I’m doing my part and saving the environment, putting trash where it belongs.

    @RetroLabs_com interesting. im getting 2gbit down now from @cogeco - but 140mbit up.... which is sad. I'd stay with them if the upload speed wasn't the same as I was getting in 2001....... I can't remote into my home pc or pull files from my own NAS because it's brutal slow and useless.

    Previewing second-quarter earnings season for Canadian telecommunications companies, Scotia Capital’s Maher Yaghi made these target changes: BCE Inc. (BCE-T +2.86% increase, “sector outperform”) to $39 from $41, Quebecor Inc. (QBR-B-T +1.08% increase, “sector perform”) to $63.50 from $58, Rogers Communications Inc. (RCI-B-T +2.88% increase, “sector outperform”) to $61 from $60.50 Telus Corp. (T-T +3.44% increase, “sector perform”) to $19 from $20. The averages on the Street are $40.24, $66.12, $59.73 and $19.95, respectively. “We expect Q2 results to show early signs that Canadian fundamentals are stabilizing around wireless pricing,” Mr. Yaghi said. “However, we do not think the evidence is strong yet to support a broad-based sector re-rating given soft subscriber growth." "In that context, Rogers screens well given improving FCF, lower capex, and MLSE optionality, while BCE shares are supported by attractive valuations, with upside from Ziply and AI." "By contrast, Cogeco remains weighed down by U.S. broadband pressure, TELUS still needs a credible new action plan to address dividend sustainability, and Quebecor continues to execute well, but its valuation leaves little room for error." "Overall, we remain neutral on the group, as improving industry discipline is encouraging but not yet enough to resolve company-specific debates around leverage, capital allocation, and whether valuations adequately reflect the longer-term risk of non-traditional broadband competition." "We made a few target adjustments lowering multiples on T given growth path, lifted valuations on MLSE for RCI and medium term growth in DCF for QBR.." Source: Globe & Mail

    @cogecohelps Guests asking for their own cart in a full service hotel is definitely at the top of the list. When you're on vacation you're supposed to avoid physical labour - but these people don't get it, and they have a hissy fit. #Cogeco

    @cogeco You sent me a final bill as our service is done, my father in law passed away, for $0.49.....50 cents. You really are going make me incur a etransfer charge with my bank for $0.49 cents? Seriously? No, are you really serious?

    @cogecohelps we are now in the middle of the 3rd outage we’ve had today since noon hour. What’s going on? I pay $40/month for a Rogers mifi to back up my Cogeco internet when it goes out!
