  @BryceMorland1 @SaskTel @PremierScottMoe Once we got back to the cabin it was going across the television. But nothing on our phones. The cell tower gets overloaded at the lake in the summer and the service is terrible.

  @emmagmay @Rogers Roger’s is horrible. We had Shaw fit fibre which wasn’t great but Rogers is WAY WAY WAY worse. Switching to Sasktel ASAP!

  Does anyone else in border communities have **** cell phone service ? We are 4 miles from border and 4 miles to a @SaskTel cell phone tower and for the last week we’ve had to go to the house to send a text ? Theory is that neither of cell providers want to cross the border

  And I did contact SaskTel support - they were not aware of any recent issues. Family members are receiving phishing emails this eeek.

  @DPWeatherald @LangbankPlayer 1. Ask yourself why the shape of the SaskTel cellular map hasn’t changed much in 10 years? They’ve built the network out to (more or less) where the people are. (Existing coverage has been densified to improve data. Eg 5G). /2

  Question for @SaskTel and @SamsungCanada, we've been visiting the same part of Meadow Lake Provincial Park for over 20 years. Why did we only have 1 bar of poor cell service in 2004 and by 2026 it hasn't got any better. Why has your technology not improved?

  10:45 PM: A planned SaskTel outage will occur on March 11, from midnight to approximately 6:00 a.m., while crews complete permanent fibre repairs related to last year’s wildfire damage. During this window, Internet, wireless, and landline (home and business) services will be unavailable across multiple Northeast Saskatchewan communities, including Sandy Bay, Brabant Lake, Geikie River, Wollaston Lake, Black Lake, Key Lake, McArthur River, Cigar Lake, Collins Bay, Stony Rapids, and Fond‑du‑Lac. This work is necessary to repair the damage and ensure the long‑term reliability of services in the area. SaskTel apologizes for any inconvenience this outage may cause and thanks customers for their patience while crews complete the work as quickly as possible. In the event of an emergency, residents in and around these communities will need to physically contact their nearest emergency services for assistance. #skoutage

  Hey @SaskTelSupport @SaskTel, might want to remind service vehicle 331 MKW what a 30 zone means! I slowed down on McCarthy for it, they swerved around, flew past! Didn’t even help them as we ended up side by side at the next light! #SlowDown #ConstructionZone
