Shaw Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Drimint (@RisenRealm) reported@Shawhelp is there an internet outage in Winnipeg. North Kildonan region? Myself and Shaw using neighbors are all having issues this morning. Cant access the outage map since it's stuck on British Columbia for some reason and your apps won't log in. Not that they ever work anyway
-
Heldy (@HeldyCarvalho) reported@Shawhelp Thanks. I have been trying to use the chat since 9AM. The auto log out feature every 10 minutes is brutal when you have to hold for support for at least hours. The only reason I stayed with Shaw is because you have had better support than Telus, historically.

Mr. C (@Me_Caramidaru) reported@Shawhelp Surrey Internet service down? again?
-
HoopsfanAB (@ydfished) reported@Shawhelp I don’t know how many times this is over the years but you cannot let your simulcast/overide stuff come on when live sports are on. Missing the end of #zags on @KHQLocalNews cuz you guys are screw ups & @CRTCeng never punishes you for it. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
-
Guy_Barnabe (@GuyBarnabe) reported@Shawhelp problems with ABC this morning in Winnipeg: XRE-031 37 This channel is temporarily unavailable…. Tried on multiple terminals and via Rogers watch-online website…
-
bc_2027 (@bc_2025_vision) reported@Shawhelp We really need wait times & callback from Rogers with Shaw support. We had this for > 10 years before it was stopped. Now TELUS has these services and Rogers with Shaw does not. @Rogers Customer service should not be a hardship on hold … no clue whether we will wait hours😟
-
Dr, Myr,, Gov Gölök Buday - Chief Sitting Gölök (@buday4vancouver) reportedSeems @ShawInfo with @Rogers has a constant circulation in blue screens that would make Microsoft blush. Somehow their support procedures only work when their on the phone (suspicious). #techsupport #rogerscable #sharcable
-
Ugabug (@MaryPChipman) reported@Shawhelp I have to return the old modem & the new TV box that didn't work. The 1st technician sent me a FedEx label but there's no FedEx in my neighbourhood. The 2nd technician said he was going to send me a label for Canada Post/UPS, both of which are far more accessible but he never did
-
stacey brotzel (@staceybrotzel) reported@Shawhelp I am a very unhappy customer. Spent one hour on the chat line waiting for customer service agent. Then he said he couldn’t help me and a phone. When I called and got through to someone, the lady was lovely. Transferred me to customer service and it was closed.

️Mike Fricker 🇨🇦 Christian Priest AuDHD CPTSD☯🖖 (@M_S_Fricker) reported@ShawInfo @Rogers Things got worse. Especially your customer service.
-
Ron McNeil (@DzynrRon) reported@Rogers @Shawhelp Why does your crap router keep thinking its in Calgary ???, PITA effin hassle as google, etc think I am in that **** hole town instead of Cobble Hill, BC VANCOUVER ISLAND ... No matter the device in our home it thinks it is Calgary, PROGRAM BETTER...
-
j a (Puffin) (@P_u_f_f_i_n_) reported@Shawhelp bonus points that i got a call trying to sell me a new plan with you guys 5 minutes ago, but i can't get you to come out and do the customer support required for my internet to work.

Amanda B (@smandaleeb) reported@Shawhelp Hey Shaw, I've been waiting on hold for 3 hours to get through to Customer Service to tell you that your utility box is smashed and our business hasn't had internet or phone service all afternoon...
-
TC-VAN (@RageGeist) reported@Shawhelp Yes I am still without service
-
Jenn (@jskapin) reported@Shawhelp Internet, and it’s in Cochrane, ab. Self service doesn’t work either.
-
Madelinenerdfighter from the @IamMADELINEpod (@Madelinenerd) reported@Shawhelp I'm on hold with tech support as my internet is down. Do you have lower mainland outages?

Ugabug (@MaryPChipman) reported@Shawhelp Yes, the new TV box (#2) is running, however, without a cable, the signal sometimes cuts out - the Internet might be down or slow for a nanosecond. Our WiFi shows as being strong.
-
Don T Beakunt (@truebusterflash) reported@Shawhelp I messaged you days ago without a response. Your app also won’t work so attempting to chat with tech support is not an option and now I’ve been on hold for 40min. Your sales calling to lock me in again is poor timing considering the current issues.
-
Lt (Retired LAPD) Frank Columbo 🏴🇨🇦 (@jsam10983741) reported@RhonaRaskin @RogersHelps @Shawhelp I feel your pain. I’ve had cell issues for some time. It’s not my phone but Roger’s. Text messages are delayed and/or I don’t receive them. And my phone defaults to Edmonton time? When I dealt with Shaw previously issues were better resolved and promptly.
-
Sophie (@sophie_everine) reported@Shawhelp when will the outage in Surrey be over!?
-
Matthew Johnson (@McJohnson922) reported@Shawhelp I did already, Sunday night when it was at its worst. The tech was... less than helpful. Lecturing me about my passphrase because I thought I forgot it, only offering the bare minimum in advice, stuff I already knew how to do...
-
Vanessa (@Noosiekins) reported@Shawhelp We ended up setting up email forwarding, but I don't know if everything is forwarded. It's terrible because I am already using an E-sim so I changed all my 2 factor authentication to email...and well now my email is up in the air. Also it's only incoming that's blocked.
-
Hugh Gillis 🇨🇦 (@hgillis) reported@Shawhelp I haven't been able to login to my account in 2 months. I can't stream from any of my devices because I can't login. I"ve called your support 4 times and just keep getting told to try again in a week. Are you ever going to fix this problem?
-
axishairsalons.com (@axishairsalons) reported@Shawhelp What good is feedback when small business owners can’t get help without sitting on hold for hours at a time?
-
OC_2030 (@oc_2030_vision) reported@Shawhelp No. It looks like someone found the issue when they came back to work on Monday … next time, please just have someone go to a TV and check for me please. Sometimes the easy way can be easy …
-
D (@superdaddoo) reported@TELUS - Help us! @ShawInfo has had saturated nodes and been overcharging our community for internet. I pay for 2gbps and get between 280mbps - 800mbps starting at 3:00 pm with further degradation into late evening. No ETA for new infrastructure. Need Fibre here ASAP.
-
CHC 16 (@CHCMike) reported@Shawhelp any issues in the Murrayville Langley BC area. Internet has been out for over an hour and nothing on site about outage
-
bc_2027 (@bc_2025_vision) reported@Shawhelp The feedback form seems broken. I filled in the * fields and submitted .. error msg? I checked several times? Please fix form? How do I submit my concern to decision makers? Thank you.
