    @Shawhelp Well I am now a Bell subscriber ….all services went down , nothing and the best Shaw could do was 6 days till they could fix and replace the highest modem which was only months old …the best was I’ve talked to several neighbours and their Shaw has been down too …

  • TheDissenter4 The Dissenter (@TheDissenter4) reported

    @ShawInfo - Unable to communicate with login server. I get this every single day when trying to access my email. Doesn't matter the browser, and I've tried all your helps.

  • nokihu Nikki (@nokihu) reported

    @Shawhelp we just “upgraded” to fibre and it’s not any faster in fact it seems like a downgrade but it’s costing us more! Help. @theBurlyChef

  • TeamSoup1 Team Soup (@TeamSoup1) reported

    @ShawInfo I now have to waste another day and gas to drive to your retail store in Nanaimo to fix YOUR mistake.

  • june_bug_june June MacKinnon (@june_bug_june) reported

    Seems like @Shawhelp network is down or else they’re throttling my internet yet again. I love paying for 500 Mbps and getting 9.4! It makes working from home practically impossible. I’m beyond frustrated with this ongoing saga. Just give me the service I pay for. #shaw

  • pantsmclee Nancy Lee (@pantsmclee) reported

    Today a @TELUSsupport technician messing around in the box outside our house cut off our internet. Now we have to wait until Sunday for a @Shawhelp technician to fix it. Tonight I’ll be screaming into the void. Tomorrow I’ll be grading assignments at my mom’s. Happy end of term!

  • lrekiel Leanne Rekiel (@lrekiel) reported

    Canada has highest cell phone rates in the world. Rogers/Shaw merger will exacerbate the situation. Previous Shaw plan: $35 US/Mexico roaming incl. +$45/month pkg int’l roaming. New Rogers plan: $65 Canada/US. $12/day int’l roaming. Do better @Rogers, @shawinfo. CRTC – fix this.

  • danwardlaw Dan Wardlaw (In all thy SONS commands) (@danwardlaw) reported

    @ShawInfo Just a question for you with your sellout to Rogers, those of us who want nothing to do with rogers what options do we have??? We've had nothing but problems with Rogers and we still don't want anything to do with the two bit outfit.

  • haidimarie Heidi A (@haidimarie) reported

    @Shawhelp is internet down in Richmond BC?

  • dheego23 Dhee Govender (@dheego23) reported from Strathcona County, Alberta

    @Shawhelp please add @onesoccer to the cable service.

  • Boitano913 Bryan Capistrano (he/him) (@Boitano913) reported

    Switching back to @Shawhelp today (on account of our @TELUS bill shooting up by $100). Telus cut our service off 24 hours earlier than agreed upon. Seems like an immature way to handle a break up. 💔 @TELUSsupport

  • BeccaNorris18 Becca Norris (@BeccaNorris18) reported

    @Shawhelp We have no cable or internet in Garrison Woods. Is something down?

  • _spatsula ✨𝒮𝓅𝒶𝓉𝓈💖 (@_spatsula) reported

    and now my upload is being terrible at under 5mbps when it should be 100 @Shawhelp

  • Parmind80279299 Parminder (@Parmind80279299) reported

    @ShawInfo Hi, I have been using Shaw for more than 18 months & now the 2.4g net has stopped working. On repeated complaints technician & customer care has asked me to switch to other service provider as they can't resolve the issue. Is the company closing down ?

  • CactusTheMelon Melon IT Support (@CactusTheMelon) reported

    @ShawInfo wth the ETA on edmonton outage

  • rsfuhrer Shawn Fuhrer (@rsfuhrer) reported

    Hey @ShawInfo, since when did my PVR record settings retroactively change from "Save until space is needed" to "save until space is needed (up to one year)"??! My PVR, which has never filled up, is suddenly missing a whole bunch of recordings 😡

  • KatyKrisp KatyKrisp (@KatyKrisp) reported

    @Shawhelp PVR is clearly set up to record only NEW episodes. Yet a 20 year old episode is recorded and not the NEW ONE. How hard is it do program things right. This happens all the ******* time. **** SHAW

  • millzbeans km (@millzbeans) reported

    @Shawhelp is there currently an outage in SE Alberta?

  • Craigsart Craig Daniels (@Craigsart) reported

    Why does it take Shaw 6 days to send out a tech to fix my internet problems? Internet is really close to essential for day to day living these days. @ShawInfo

  • TeamSoup1 Team Soup (@TeamSoup1) reported

    @ShawInfo your customer service has tanked! 8 different reps 8 different stories 6 hours of my work day gone and still I got the wrong equipment! You charge way too much for such abysmal services. You are just like your owner @RogersHelps craptastic in every conceivable way

  • Withloveamber1 Amber George (@Withloveamber1) reported

    Ugh. I’ve said it before but this time I mean it. I’m leaving @ShawInfo and their internet service. I use up my cell data to cover for their consistent daily drops of service. I pay a huge premium price for. I think I’ll try @TekSavvyBuzz moving my phones and internet around.

  • cpbroni @cpbroni (@cpbroni) reported

    @Craigsart @ShawInfo Yes Shaw did the same to me and told me no outages in my area ….talked to several neighbours on my street and they’re experiencing the exact same issues ….transparency keeps the customer …I am now a bell subscriber ….way to go Shaw

  • youinthebushes You, in the bushes. (@youinthebushes) reported

    @Shawhelp your online chat doesn't work, and I have neither internet nor phone service.

  • Parental_OnKick Parental Advisory (@Parental_OnKick) reported

    @Shawhelp is there ANY way to possibly get help, I have been having this issue for MONTHS now with packet stability that interferes with my ability to do work and livestream. I have called support multiple times and have "restarted my router" 100 times. I get the SAME generic…
