Cogeco Outage Report in Grimsby, Ontario

Hey @cogeco @cogecohelps the internet service is down in Vineland and the Community TV channel is out too. Any news on when this will be resolved. People are working at home and students are learning at home.

@cogeco @cogecohelps the internet has gone down twice in the last 30 minutes. Is there a problem in Vineland?

If your #Cogeco in Ontario is out, set your router to DSN 8.8.8.8 with secondary 8.8.4.4 until they fix their DNS.

@cogeco any idea of when today's issues will be sorted? Like many I rely on a reliable internet connection to be able to work. This is the second time this week this had happened to me and it is preventing me from doing my job.

Hey, @cogeco @cogecohelps the internet has gone down and a router reboot did not solve it. Tried calling support and it’s busy. What gives? Perhaps a tweet to update users affected?

@cogecohelps hi Cogeco. Our TiVo has 3 blinking lights abs will not turn on. I have tried to call technical services but the call keeps getting disconnected on your end before we can even speak to someone. Can you help me.

@cogeco I got tech support by phone and they promise service will be restored by 2:30. I hope so because my job requires internet acesss.

@cogeco No, I haven’t. The tv is out too. Not sure that rebooting the modem will help but I’ll try.

@cogeco Thanks for the reply. I won’t bother calling tech support & waiting forever. Still no tweet yet about the outage. These tools help reduce the number of calls, use them.

@cogecohelps living in lower Stoney Creek. Never had an issue with speed or connectivity. A few weeks ago Bell ran all new fiberoptic lines and since then cogeco has been SLOW. Could be just by chance but super frustrating either way

No internet @cogeco - issue persists after a reboot. L3B 4W4

@cogecohelps does cogeco allow the use of third party modems? What do I do if mine is broken?

@SWIFT_Broadband @DufferinCounty @cogeco How do I get SWIFT Broadband at my home? I've been following this initiative for literally YEARS now and there is still no service (or ETA) for my area.

@cogeco is the “worst” internet provider, was force to switch to this company because of my location, 9/10 days it doesn’t work, do not recommend it to anyone. we have there highest performance internet speed pkg. we have to constantly call them to fix it. worst provider exp.

I’m confused. I’m paying @Cogeco $81 per month including tax for 120Mbps download. And @Bell just sent me an offer of 15Mbps download on Fibe for $85. Is #Bell nuts thinking this is a good plan? Am I missing something? That seems like a lot for a very slow connection. #Internet

@OakvilleChamber @cogeco @GlenAbbeyGC Your door to door salesperson was unprofessional and would not leave my door when I said I was not interested in your service. Thanks, but after seeing that, I'll stick with Bell. Way too pushy

@cogecohelps @cogeco My mother spoke with 3 reps and none of them were able to fix the issue and claimed there was no issue. I called in and I ensured it was fixed. Finally, a rep that knew how to do their job. Issue now resolved.

@cogecohelps since my phone ,internet and TV are all cogeco, does your customer service think its a game when I call and they reset the modem ending the conversation WITHOUT fixing the issue. worst customer service ever!

@cogecohelps Cogeco support is like pulling fking teeth. They are one of two things: 1/ Incompetent Or 2/ Taking advantage of my elderly mother. They didn’t give her the package she signed up for (their promo), charged her more than the promo and gave her less services.
