  • EvanLeeson Evan Leeson (@EvanLeeson) reported from Saanich, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp you guys have gone from heroes to zeroes on customer service. My chat queue estimate expired fifteen minutes ago. Where are all the cheerful people I used to talk to on the phone who worked here in Victoria.

  • mrichter37 Mike Richter (@mrichter37) reported from Mill Bay, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp unfortunate mistake happened tonight and I couldn’t make my appointment with your tech, he proceeded to call me and lecture me about how they don’t get paid to wait. Great service!! Because we all get paid to wait around when they don’t show up when they’re supposed to

  • PatrickSeward patrickseward (@PatrickSeward) reported from Saanich, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp Well, #shawcable changed their plans, now all customers get the same great prices, or so they say. Not only do I feel cheated as a 20+ year customer when new ones got the best prices, now I get the privledge of paying more money, not less. Supervisor please!

  • ES_Studios Christopher Woudstra (@ES_Studios) reported from Pender Island, 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?

  • mrichter37 Mike Richter (@mrichter37) reported from Mill Bay, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp hello. Having problems signing into email. Changed my password through myshaw, and now iPhone is saying incorrect password, when I enter the new updated password

  • swonder77 Steve (@swonder77) reported from Sidney, British Columbia

  • candrie Cindy Andrie 🏳️‍🌈 (@candrie) reported from Saanich, British Columbia

    Anyone else in #yyj internet going up and down in this heat. Specifically with @Shawhelp ?

  • Ecolofty E C O L O F T Y your #1 green insulation solution (@Ecolofty) reported from Central Saanich, British Columbia

    @ShawInfo Hi there, I’m hoping somebody from your billing department can get a hold of me ASAP. We are contacting you on behalf of my elderly parents who have spent at least the last 6 months on Shaw Internet w/ literally no coverage in their house. We need a resolution today🙏

  • mrichter37 Mike Richter (@mrichter37) reported from Mill Bay, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp @ShawInfo I just waited an hour and forty five minutes on hold after being told at the beginning that the wait time was between 35 and 45 minutes. This is the third time I’ve called in the last three days with extended wait time and shitty service. Can’t wait for @TELUS

  • tysoup Ty_soup (@tysoup) reported from Saanich, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp your store front services in Victoria are incredibly terrible!! I sat in the phone all night with you guys trying to get my cable box fixed. You said go to the store front a new box will be ready for pickup.. I’m now wait an HOUR in this store to switch the box!

  • mrichter37 Mike Richter (@mrichter37) reported from Mill Bay, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp the tech came today and gave me a new modem. The password they gave me isn’t working!! Help!!

  • EvanLeeson Evan Leeson (@EvanLeeson) reported from Saanich, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp It's too bad, you should be proactive, given the price is the same, there's no additional input cost for Shaw, and you have a happier client. Might offset some if the damage being done to Shaw's rep due to the customer service roll-back over the last few years. #shareholdersfirst

  • hainzy26 Chris (@hainzy26) reported from Saanich, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp Bluecurve appears to be down in a few places around town. What happened?

  • laurelcmc Laurel McIntyre (@laurelcmc) reported from Sidney, British Columbia

    @Shawhelp Trying day for my neighbors & business folks on the Saanich Peninsula. I was 12 minutes on hold to report this major outage - not good. However it was resolved within 10 minutes of reporting. Good.

    Worst customer service ever!!! @ShawInfo @Shawhelp

  • 610Mike 1 Tall Cop (@610Mike) reported

    @Shawhelp We where waiting on the computer as well as a phone call for over three hours. We are currently back on with a rep but 3 hours? A complete joke and very disappointing. There is no excuse for this poor customer service.

  • WpgSportsNerd #StayHome (@WpgSportsNerd) reported

    @Shawhelp my tv reception is all choppy and freezing up. Not sure if there are issues anywhere.

  • iamandyalex AndyAlex (@iamandyalex) reported

    @Shawhelp Once the issue is resolved, do I just need to power cycle the modem and cable box?

  • mikehermary Mike Hermary (@mikehermary) reported

    @Shawhelp Various channels are experiencing audio and video interruptions right now. Is this a known issue with Shaw or the broadcasters?

  • RickKen18588185 Rick Kennedy (@RickKen18588185) reported

    @Shawhelp Any updates on the Surrey outage? We are a business that relies on Shaw for phones and our POS.

  • WKRPinCanada 🍁Wil Henderson █♥█ (@WKRPinCanada) reported

    @CofRedCentral @plasercalgary @Shawhelp responded to me wanting my info so they could look into it If they'd check this thread they'd see it has absolutely nothing to do with me and is more about their network..

  • Laurreen Laurreen (@Laurreen) reported

    @Shawhelp Difficult that we keep getting referred to online Shaw support when we have no internet. I had to drive where there is service to tweet. Do we have an ETA?

  • TheFallingStar WonderSteve (@TheFallingStar) reported

    @Shawhelp Do you have an ETA for the Surrey outage?

  • IanSeggie Ian Seggie 🅙 (@IanSeggie) reported

    @Shawhelp has **** the bed again. We installed #BlueCurve TV in October, and we've had issues with it every month since. I think this switch to @TELUSsupport is going to happen sooner than later. It's not worth the paper it's written on.
