    @startca You guys going to inform your customers what's going on or what? 2 days now sporadic internet. No answers in DMS or support chat. Pathetic support services. Also if anyone else sees this I'm currently looking for a new provider that will support its customers!

  • SinfullyKnotty SinfullyKnotty 🇨🇦 💉💉💉💉🖋 🐶🐱🧶🧵🪡 (@SinfullyKnotty) reported

    @startca our internet has been down 8 hours. (Oshawa L1J ) I WFH so need it. Phone is VOIP so that is gone too. Don’t have data to spare on cell so can’t fill in with that esp with the docs I need. Any idea as to when it will be fixed?

  • ItsShaZam Shane Zeagman (@ItsShaZam) reported

    @startca Any word on the downed network on Cogeco's line in Hamilton?

  • mikesmoniz MisanthropicHumanist (@mikesmoniz) reported

    @GabrielCPinto @startca I don’t game so I can’t speak to speeds regarding that, but have no issues using streaming services with them ie Netflix Disney+, Amazon prime. I actually have their IPTV service as well and I’m quite happy with it

    @startca Using a service such as CloudflareDNS or OpenDNS can even make it better and take it to the next level.

  • j0_mAmA Jo is ... therefore she thinks. (@j0_mAmA) reported

    @RachFee @startca Awful website. When I finally got it to load, it says online only.

  • 13tcc13 tcc (@13tcc13) reported

    @startca is there issues going on with vdsl internet? Just stopped working.

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @startca Or maybe if one of the dozens of times I called your "support", they were actually helpful than maybe I wouldn't have to reset the equipment so much.

  • caraquilts Cara Donnelly🌻 (@caraquilts) reported

    Anyone else having @startca issues this weekend?

  • candu_scuba Dave (@candu_scuba) reported

    @startca Did all the updates, restarted, rebooted and reset. Still having major buffering problems. Never been this bad.
