@Shawhelp worst telephone support. You guys take more than an hour to talk. Don’t pretend you are overbusy.

Word to the wise- don’t use @ShawInfo - they added charges to my bill and I’ve been bounced from messenger, phone and now “email” customer service reps each time I’m told “sorry I’m not able to help me”. Careful - don’t sign a contract. #shady

@danat8n @Shawhelp Strange. I’ve rebooted the modem twice now and still having the same problem. Issue is the same on my laptop as well. Even went to my sister’s and tried her wifi (also Shaw) and it didn’t work there either.

There’s nothing like watching a really intense scene in a movie and getting the notification that your bandwidth isn’t enough or you’re having connectivity issues @Shawhelp, every night this week. I’ve had uninterrupted service for over 10 years and now this.

@Shawhelp this Bluecurve PVR is crap. Trying to rewind or fast forward recorded shows is near impossible. It freezes & jumps forward erratically, plus the dropping of sound while watching recordings I messaged you about a few days ago is still happening. Please fix this!

@Shawhelp Just the one box and it's wireless (Bluecurve). The problem only arises on recordings, not with real-time broadcasts.

@Shawhelp I tried turning it on and off again for the past hour before realizing your services are completely down in my area (Nanaimo/Gulf Islands). Any ETA on when they will be back up and running again? Are they waiting on BC hydro to fix something power wise or??

@ShawInfo we’ve been customers from the beginning. Had trouble w cable and Internet a month ago. Was ok. Now same problem again and the soonest a technician can come out is DEC 4? Totally unacceptable.
