@Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp In the past I've worked for all the major telecoms, except Shaw, in either sales or management. I can say for certain that customer service across the board is in a dismal state. Companies seem to care more about making MORE profit than about delivering excellent customer care.

@Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp Basically what I'm saying is...go where the best deal is. Customer care is going to be hit or miss, regardless. :(

@ShawInfo Help, we are being spammed by some fake Amazon caller. Can you add them to your spam blocker on the home phone please?

@Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp Just as bad. I have called every month since the beginning of my contract as the billing is always incorrect. It’s been 7 months. Ugggh

@followthetwitt @Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp Shaw used to be so fast and resolve issues, but something happened. They kept sneaking the prices up, so when a rep came by my door with that deal I switched and never looked back. Optik with fibre ✅ No matter though, both will always have issues trying to reach by phone.

@Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp Never had a problem with Telus...been using them for years. Had Shaw when I first moved into my current suite, but it was so bad I switched to Telus & landlords did right after. I would never go back.

@Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp Does it do that on every single TV or just one? Also when you say you need to 'unplug the box' is that just the little box or have you tried to cold reboot the main router? I find mine gets laggy at times and voice command/pvr sucks I have to hard reboot the main box.

@Leah_Holiove @robertmcalaster @Shawhelp I would say you might need a tech so many scenarios. Make sure all connections are tight . If it’s just YouTube it might be an issue with it .

@Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp Had Telus for quite a few years now, booking a tech is easy, never waited for more than week, usually within a couple days. LOVE fibre optic internet! Shaw sunk their money into expanding their services (ie their phone system) instead of technology like Telus (Shaw tech told me

@brad_l28 @Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp Your main box probably needs to be changed. Book a service call, they’re free!

@Leah_Holiove @Shawhelp I had Shaw for a week and the picture quality was so bad. They attempted to make everything better installing old wired equipment and that didn’t help. Went back to Telus again and all was good. I am having some router issues though now. Haven’t had time to call them.

@Shawhelp It's just that your spam blocking is not working. Need to fix your algorithm.
