Shaw Outage in Ganges, Capital Regional District, British Columbia

@Shawhelp @ShawInfo so I took all the steps advised via an offline DM help desk session...after 2 hours of wasted time the only answer given to me was an upgrade? Apparently we have a 1Mbps/0 internet speed for $66! And I can “upgrade” to 5/1? And that’s my best option?

@sadsirensong @MsYouDoYou @Shawhelp I will say that we agreed on a price in September. It was never 5K and we knew they would have to run poles and cables. But Scott hounds this woman to get any info and she changes the price each time. And now she’s quoting 5K with no basis and it’s been 5 months and nothing.,.

Now of course it’s this shady as **** SSI @shawhelp rep that’s asking for this money, that was never agreed on before. So yeah...we’re starting to think this is a bribe. What are you going to do about this @shawhelp? Pretty sure this is illegal. Anyone else ever had this issue?

We’ve been stuck using Telus internet via cell towers until this gets sorted out, and it works only half the time. @shawhelp told us we would have internet in September. Then in October. Then in Nov, Dec, Jan...now @shawhelp is saying they’ll cancel unless we pay $5K

Do you know how damn frustrating this has been @Shawhelp ? And that every time we try to speak to a superior, she won’t let us. That she’s been dicking us around since September 10th. Changing the price on a whim. Promising to get things done, never doing so. Now a $5K bribe...

@Shawhelp For over a week now I have had problems with the TV pixelating and the sound cracking. Have had a online chat and a telephone call. The telephone call got cut off but nobody called back. Any suggestions.

@Shawhelp slid into the dms. Having issues with a bunch of channels not working

@Shawhelp Many thanks. My daughter isn’t on twitter but operates Our Little Flower Company in GRanville Island Market. I said I would contact you. Their internet has been down about 2 hours and they cannot use their POS system. Her contact number is 604-816-9753 if you can help them out

@Shawhelp Hello Shaw, I’m on Pender Island on Magic Lake and my wifi isn’t working and hasn’t been all day. It has been spotty for the last few days. I believe you are aware there is a problem but could you update me when it will be repaired.

@Shawhelp Can you please submit there is an outage in Varsity Estates also?

@Shawhelp Thanks but the service was down for hours before this notice was posted, rendering it pointless. I should not have to phone you to obtain this information.

@Shawhelp is there an outage in Varsity Estates area in Calgary this morning? My internet is not working. I have tried unplugging my modem and issue still remains.

@Shawhelp is the service down in Calgary area ?

@adamblank17 @Shawhelp Thank God I never have to deal with shaw ever again. I don't know if they have teksavvy out there but I can't recommend it enough $60/month plus $10 for IPTV and I get every hab game for the season!

@Shawhelp seeing an outage in North Vancouver?

@Shawhelp @OfficialDrewie What about New Westminster, The cable keeps cutting out now there is no service what so ever, this has been ongoing for weeks now.

@Shawhelp @freakindumb I live in burnaby and internet is also down. We have tried that solution, it didnt work. It is definitely for sure down

@Shawhelp is service down in Burnaby around lake city? V5A area

1/ Update: it’s a days-long network issue with @ShawInfo that still isn’t resolved. Today happened to be my install date (booked 2 weeks ago) for Shaw internet. Day 1 as a Shaw customer and I can’t help but wonder how an outage like this would be handled in southern Ontario…?
