  No Drones Canada (@NoDronesCanada) reported 2 minutes ago

  .@ShawInfo You are blocking my personal emails to any Shaw email customer. How do I change this? I sent a simple email with an inoffensive graphic, and it triggered some sort of block.

  @Shawhelp No timeline, no email confirmation, and I’m not a new customer. I’m being billed for 2 gigabit now, without the hardware for it. I am hesitant to send this beat up box back without knowing I will be getting hardware to actually use the service

  @Shawhelp @LindsayWiebeRD Former Shaw client here of over 25 years. I recommend switching to another provider. Shaw Cable has horrible customer service and no respect for long time customers all they want is your money. I blame it on the merger with even more greedy Rogers customers are just a number now

  @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

  @RogersHelps I tried Rogers with Shaw chat support but they no longer seem to have ability for us to add a screenshot for troubleshooting. I just posted 2 screenshots on @shawhelp messaging. Can I get help there or should I repost to your messaging? Thanks for still being here!!

  It's been a slice, but I'm leaving this trainwreck (@BCReality) reported 17 minutes ago

  Hey @FP_Champagne so you allowed the Shaw/Rogers merger to happen, now there are hundreds of thousands/millions of users with no internet or phone service in many parts of Canada. What gives? Time to start giving these conglomerates LARGE fines! @ShawInfo @Rogers

  I love when @Shawhelp has random outages before their scheduled maintenance outages. But since I’m not technically a Roger’s customer, their customer service can’t help/notify of the outage 🙄

  @Bigroyalt @Shawhelp @ShawDirect S'funny, if you want to pay, add a service etc. you get through no problem. Fixed up in no time

  The service from @Shawhelp has gone downhill since @Rogers took over. Tired of the increasing costs, and poor service. Constantly dealing with “connection issues” on my TV. Long wait times for assistance from @RogersHelps and no help. UGH. What are the alternatives out there?!

  @Shawhelp I'm now on day 3 without internet. I contacted support and they gave me case number CCS000011835796. Please have a manager contact me with a resolution timeline. This is atrocious service and I'll be cancelling as soon as I'm able
