  • TaylorImeson Taylor Ando (Imeson) (@TaylorImeson) reported from Wavecrest, Ontario

    Can anyone @cogeco or @cogecohelps tell me why my stupid #EPICO box has gone out multiple times a day over the last 4 days and needs to be disconnected and rebooted? Why is this service so terrible?

  • StephanYawny Stephan Yawny (@StephanYawny) reported from Welland, Ontario

    @cogeco Have a problem here. Have cable access, but very few channels in my digital box and none with the adapter for the tv in my bedroom. On the box I get 49, 52, 205 and 426. Nothing else for the 20 or so channels I tried. Everything sort of died around 1 am

  • TheRobertLewis8 Robert Lewis II (@TheRobertLewis8) reported from Welland, Ontario

    @Bell_Support Wanna just buy Cogeco instead of buying out contracts? At least your internet doesn’t go down 24/7. Tell your bosses to PLEASE buy Cogeco so I don’t lose out on YourTV Niagara.

    @cogecohelps posted this last night, still applies. "@cogeco Have a problem here. Have cable access, but very few channels in my digital box and none with the adapter for the tv in my bedroom. On the box I get 49, 52, 205 and 426. Nothing else for the 20 or so channels I tried"

    @durbdurbster how did you fix it? I have the same code. Cogeco isn’t not very helpful. 1-2 days to call back with fix?.

  • TheRobertLewis8 “Rose City Rebel” Robert Lewis II (@TheRobertLewis8) reported from Welland, Ontario

    Shoutout to @cogeco for making me miss the return of CM Punk. You’re the WORST.

  • daveschulz Dave Schulz (@daveschulz) reported from Pelham Centre, Ontario

    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.

  • lisol_18 Lisa Gibson (@lisol_18) reported from Welland, Ontario

    @cogeco Had service appt last night 5-8. No show. I called, was told it was rebooked for tonight 5-8. Rec’d verification call for TONIGHT. I called to confirm. Told it’s now tmrw 5-8. Why did someone not call to communicate? Do I need to change providers? 😡

  • geordie_plastic Plastic Geordie (@geordie_plastic) reported from Pelham Centre, Ontario

    @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.

  • SitecoreChris SitecoreChris (@SitecoreChris) reported

    @carol_nasvytis @CBCAlerts @cogecohelps Can you login to your cogeco modem? If so you click on connections and wan then edit then where it says primary dns you click manual and enter 8.8.8.8 then where it says secondary dns set it to 8.8.8.4 then save. It will restart your modem then you will have access again

    @cogeco Hello my service just went out in downtown St Catharines

  • EtainRhiannon Etain Rhiannon (@EtainRhiannon) reported

    @cogeco Will Cogeco be providing any compensation to their customers? This is a huge outage with terrible timing (and affecting businesses, people who are working, children attending school, etc.).

  • broxsterman Guy (@broxsterman) reported

    @cogeco With such a substantial outage impacting millions, during a pandemic, I think more frequent updates would be appropriate
