    @startca No thanks. The past 3 times this has happened, I call but you can't fix it over the phone, so I have to schedule a tech to come over. By the evening, the issue's resolved, so I have to call back and cancel the tech only to hear that "yes there was an outage in your area earlier".

  • JKamenar Jaclyn Kamenar (@JKamenar) reported

    @CheekyOtter16 @startca My internet has been absolute garbage the last 2 weeks. Lagging, slow, cuts in and out. And my speed test is fine. Which means it’s a server problem. That’s you start. Get this crap together. Thinking about switching companies. The rates keep going up and the quality goes down
