Sasktel Outage

@mcilmoyle_4 @cowboy_bob @PremierScottMoe But that is not who you are negotiating with. Doug Burnett is the CEO of Sasktel Mike Marsh is the CEO of SaskPower Ken From is the CEO of SaskEnergy If you work for Air Canada you don't negotiate with the Prime Minister. You work for companies and are not pubic service employees

@kaydarsn_ @LANDN Bro what is SaskTel lol it sound rlly bad and obv you have one bar. But congrats!

@ShawInfo really I want to cancel and go into your store in #yxe and they tell me I have to call in and cancel... but I can drop off your crappy equipment... so glad I changed to @SaskTel

@SaskTel the contractors installing the fiber upgrade left open excavations in my yard, very big safety issue.

@SaskTel Stike with access....way better service and coverage...and cheaper..sasktel...very unreliable on times and install. Maybe if they offer there employees a fair contract it would help....but for now I will stick with access...and no I am not a sasktel employee. Just saying

All crown corporations want to treat their workers fairly Scott, STOP FORCING THEIR HAND @PremierScottMoe @SaskTel @SaskPower @SaskEnergy @SaskParty

@Ambear6 You're correct, chat is off right now, as we're down to a very small team. I'm so sorry for the inconvenience. We do need to talk to you to arrange your move so if you could please give us a call at 1-800-SASKTEL that would be great. Our queue is generally quieter from 5-6pm.

@Mike_BSP @PremierScottMoe @SaskParty @SaskTel @SaskEnergy @SaskPower Haha I was just saying he doesn't give a damn about us crown workers.

@HoffartJack @PremierScottMoe @SaskParty @SaskTel @SaskEnergy @SaskPower He gives a damn. But that damn is bought and paid for by big interests like O&G. He doesn't give a damn about public sector workers.

@SaskTelSupport is there any issues with the Sasktel email servers. Getting delayed messages that don’t show up in mailbox until 24 hours later.

@PremierScottMoe @SaskTel And I will tell you how many times myself and our incredible technician team restored customers who lost service due to vandalism, accidents, floods - and I’ll tell you what. They didn’t put the contractor teams on this work.

@PremierScottMoe Hey @PremierScottMoe - I invite you to sit down with some @sasktel employees who work or have worked in Operations (including me in my 20 year career in serving this province with all I’ve got) and tell me this is something new that deserves to suddenly be reported to the media.

@PremierScottMoe @SaskTel There's no arguing that this is a bad thing. Finally agree with something Scott says. BUT, it's time to get back to the table. Get the deal done. At least day SOMETHING about the strike. You continue to lose our confidence and our votes. Get it together.

@SaskTel Also, things like this happen all the time regardless of if there is a strike or not, but are never mentioned because we fix them so quickly. So in the very unlikely chance it wasn't one of your scabs being incompetent you can't just come out and make it sound like it's strikers

@CaptainHammer92 @saskatoonGord @SaskTel That infrastructure requires touching for damn near every trouble call. And no, they're not trained for it. Here's the result.

@PremierScottMoe @SaskTel Vandalizing the solar industry as “Extremely High Customer Demand” previously was the cause of cancelling a green energy program is likely more dangerous. In a short 8 months, you’ll be like us.. wondering what happened and out of work!

@Testify_Cn @HoffartJack @PremierScottMoe I don’t have a problem with Sasktel as much as I do with the union representing them.

@PremierScottMoe @SaskParty Crown Workers at SaskTel, SaskPower, SaskEnergy and other crowns need you to help them get back to work Scott. Don't be like @BradWall306 Brad Wall. Don't make a mess of things and run away. You have the power to fix this. You do.

@MMandryk The numbers fit the narrative, 5.8% over 2 vs 1.2% (SaskTel) the last 2 years OR let’s take it to 2006 just to lay it all out approx 45% vs approx 25%. In my mind the 0’s at the front are the monetary issue, the negotiation should fall between 0-2.3 in that 2nd year at least.

@EdgeFest @Rhino_Bob @fablexus @SaskPower @SaskTel Wow! My tweet supporting @SaskPower and @SaskTel workers wandered off. As "public utilities", I expect them to provide an affordable service, not generate excess profits. @SaskParty can't see an enterprise as anything more than a business that should be private and lucrative. 🤔

Oh good @SaskTel, ...Shaw trucks have been all over town recently working and the word is out that they are bringing internet to town!! We can finally switch to a company with a product AND service!!

@LarryHiatt1 @MyAccessCA @mblairYQR Never go SaskTel.

@MyAccessCA I wish we had Sasktel max tonight, I hated having people over for the game and fricken Access TSN goes down — poor poor poor

And don’t give me the usual “league and team determine blackout” BS, this is failure of your tech - I’ve paid for access to my region through Sasktel, the app should be designed to recognize account/region of paying customer’s address vs. IP address.

Hey @TSN_Sports - I’m a Sasktel customer and traveling...the Sasktel MaxTV app won’t let me view Rider/Stamps live because I must view in TSNgo, but your app says I’m out of the region - I logged in with a SASKTEL account, that should override region!

@robvanstone Still working on Shaw. Probably your provider. I’m sure sasktel will be right out to fix it.

@LHubich @EdgeFest they arent out of province scabs, they've been around before the strike & were contracted with sasktel to help install infinet, but i see you may be trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. i think you govt workers get paid enough as it is. that is just my opinion thou 😎

@JRon63409806 @WotherspoonT Goal was to go past SaskPower,SaskEnergy, and SaskTel HQs. So they did have traffic closed to go down Victoria and Broad and it was very noticeable. Lots of cars honking horns in support.

@EdgeFest @Safimod @Rhino_Bob @fablexus @stangea @SaskPower @SaskTel Damn straight, I also came to one of the company's I work with defense for something last week!!

@colindamad Never noticed, I think there is Sasktel here at work.

@Rhino_Bob @stangea @SaskPower @SaskTel No, but it operates like one, Sasktel is publicly owned. Sasktel is not able to broadcast out. Their customer base has a hard limit of about 1M ppl, and a population density of *less than half* of North Dakota. Sprint has 50M US subscribers. They're 👏 not 👏 comparable 👏

I was so upset today that I still didn't have internet at my place. I lashed out @SaskTel on Twitter. Then, I came across this wonderful rep. What an amazing person, she was able to help me in like 2 hours. I am sure she followed up with a lot of people to resolve my issue. (1)

@mrsinisterlefty Re 6, could set up a national version of SaskTel. Yeah, it’d mean a slower rollout of new infrastructure and degrading service over time, but there are always trade-offs.

@BeautifulRed7 @SKFedLabour Please feel free to contact our internet tech support at 1-800-SASKTEL. We're happy to help :)

Had the same outfit install high-speed internet at my house on Tues. He claimed he was working with an independent contractor. Never thought to look at the license plate on his vehicle. He said work would dry up for them b/c Sasktel mgrs too busy to book more home apptments.

@Dougie_Ice_Back Not to mention I lived on the West Coast for 3 years. My Telus and BC Hydro bills were more than double what I pay for SaskTel and my SaskPower/SaskEnergy combined. If people think paying an extra $0.97 for the carbon tax on their power bill is bad they have no clue

@MirandaBiletski The only reason Bell and Telus have such good coverage now is because they use the network Sasktel built for it's own customers. Corporations focused on profit would never have built the network Sasktel did.

.@SaskTel By locking out the workers, you've made it impossible to get service for the jerky internet connection I've had for the last 6 hours, barely able to watch video. After raising my internet rate a few months ago. @SKFedLabour #skpoli

@Rhino_Bob @stangea @SaskPower @SaskTel Canada's population dense areas are already fibre. Have been for ages. But again, *wifi isn't cellular*. If you can't understand the difference, I can't help that. And that article confirms my original point - Sasktel is the reason prices aren't double.

@fablexus @stangea @SaskPower @SaskTel Bawahahaha you obviously have no idea about Ukraine - the majority of the population lives in major centres and what they call a village is often 8,000 or more people. In the the rural areas there are very few population centres without cell service 5G is right now coming

@mcphee66 Hi Dan it's Blake we just switched our Duplexes to Access 25mbs. We were having problems with Sasktel but have had no problems with Access and the speed is noticeably faster.

Made it to SaskTel Centre for #Vancouver #Giants versus #Saskatoon #Blades in #WHL action. Forgot my mobile phone at home, but that might not be a bad thing.

@Rhino_Bob @stangea @SaskPower @SaskTel Sasktel is the reason that a $60 plan in Saskatchewan is $120 in Ontario, and was the only provider to offer unlimited data for years. They're not the problem.

@YXEguy Same as SaskTel’s been bulletproof for me except in the basement of an arena in Eatevan but to be fair no one had service. I’ve been a happy Telus customers since we left Saskatoon.

@Ezeryc Hi Eric. I'm so sorry that you're experiencing issues with your data. Our wireless support queue is open today and you can reach them by calling 1-800-SASKTEL. They are still working 24/7.

@fuhkair Yes, often a reboot should take care of this. If that doesn't work, please feel free to contact our internet support team at 1-800-SASKTEL. I can assure you that we are all hands on deck right and we will try our very best to get your services working seamlessly again.

@SaskTel I understand this problem is unavoidable but atleast solve this as quick as you can so we can get our service too.I’ve been waiting for like over a month now for my internet and then suddenly got a call. Yesterday that is postponing .atleast tell us when is the soonest appointmnt

Honked in support of the SaskTel employees on strike today. Might have to add “activist” to my bio.

@UniforTheUnion I support SaskTel workers!

@SaskTel go ahead and keep striking fellas. I switched over to Bell yesterday for more data, less money and slightly better cell service #ItsNotMeItsYou

@SaskTel Your managers should stop spending my money on radio spots. That money could be going to raises for employee's. About 2.3% please. The same that @PremierScottMoe and his cronies got. Then they can all go to work supplying the awesome service I have come to know and love.

@SaskTel I know it's technically not Sasktel's fault for this strike as Unions can suck sometimes. Just wondering how much longer will I be waiting for internet service that I was supposed to get originally two months ago. Thanks!

@also_bort I believe hours for PTE is a major issue for Sasktel already

Please be advised that the SaskTel Contact Centre is now open for Wireline Sales and Support. For all Wireless inquiries, please contact a SaskTel Authorized Dealer.

@Darrell_support Hi there. I'm so sorry to hear that she's having issues with your internet. Our call centers have had some delays today but it sounds like our internet support area is available to help you. Please call 1-800-SASKTEL and someone will help you.

@EdgeFest @wynswld @SaskTel @SentinelSK @UniforTheUnion Also doesn't help the fact that a great deal of them aren't even employees of a Crown corporation. Many are hired professional protesters.

Surprised to hear the SaskTel picketers were, and I quote, "making a strong statement" on @CBCSaskatoon Morning today. While I happen to support the striking workers, Fiona Odlum's comments came awfully close to advocacy in an otherwise neutral news hit. @CBCNews

SaskTel employees blocking me this morning when I tried to get into my office to work at Sentinel on 2nd Avenue. I don't even work for @SaskTel WTF!
