  Hey @Shawhelp ... Is shawmail down right now? My email app is asking me to re-login only for it to tell me the credentials are incorrect. Then tried web mail and I also can't seem to login. Only started a few hours ago?

  @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 @Shawhelp unfortunately no widespread outage on your site and no alert banner in my app under my account. Trying to access troubleshooting just continues a never ending loop of selecting your device then a page that bounces back to select your device. Not user friendly.

  @M_S_Fricker @ShawInfo @RogersHelps The average time I've been on hold for tech support is 45 min+. Rogers doesn't want you to get any help from a human being - they want you to do everything online yourself despite the fact most tech problems can't be helped online. And the music sucks!

  Dealing with @Shawhelp @Rogers even when all you did is cancel your longtime Shaw service.. But they keep billing you and hitting you with late charges and threatening cancellation… …when you have already cancelled and sent back modem & tv box, proven by courier waybill.

  @Shawhelp It's ONLY the TV box. I go on the apps on my TV & watch no problem. Our Internet is strong everywhere.

  @Shawhelp I’m not out of region which is why I reached out. I’ve never had this issue previously. This was also viewed on satellite not digital. You can see from my pic that the broadcast was still playing in the background. Normally the screen is black behind the pop up if out of region

  Nobody should sign up for @Shawhelp useless customer service that only got worse since the merger. Billions made by these clowns and can’t even get to my house to fix recurrent issues for 48 hours. The amount I pay you should a guy on standby 24/7. #joke #ridiculous #Rogerssucks
