    @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!

  • steve_ca2002 Keep Left (@steve_ca2002) reported

    @startca Fix CNN.

  • candu_scuba Dave (@candu_scuba) reported

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

  • Gooni3Gamess GooNi3Games (@Gooni3Gamess) reported

    @sherratt3298 @startca There was no issue, this is what fake reviews are lol

  • Coral9967 Coral Williams (@Coral9967) reported

    I've been with @startca for YEARS and it's always been this way. I have no idea how you hire people that all seem to have the same legit customer service attitudes and are ALWAYS pleasant. Kudos to your hiring team.

    @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

  • caraquilts Cara Donnelly🌻 (@caraquilts) reported

    Anyone else having @startca issues this weekend?

  • 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?

  • LeahBraemel LeahBraemel 🇨🇦 is Unashamed (@LeahBraemel) reported

    @startca I tried the website chat via my phone’s LTE but it said the chat wasn’t available. Wifi is going up and down starting the last couple minutes. If it doesn’t stay stable will phone via cell cuz your voip won’t be stable

  • stillkvl kvl (he/they) (@stillkvl) reported

    @vasta @startca I get it. And we all have bad days. I would just hate for the overall customer service to go a specific direction.

  • 13tcc13 tcc (@13tcc13) reported

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

  • vasta Sameer Vasta (@vasta) reported

    Just has the worst customer service from @startca (Sherri?) that it almost makes me want to switch to Rogers. Abysmal and rude. (Also, doesn’t help that there’s an outage that they won’t even attempt to help resolve.)

  • guinnessguy trevor kerr (@guinnessguy) reported

    @startca is there an outage in Belleville, Ontario currently? Have lost signal off and on from Tuesday September 18 to the 19th (today)

  • ronthetvtech Ron (@ronthetvtech) reported from Central Elgin, Ontario

    @startca All you need is a bigger dish or possibly a feed horn rotation to fix the problem. But if your looking int alternative sources perhaps you could look into sourcing Newsnation and BBC news. You can never have enough news sources and you defenetly don’t have enough !

  • SmrUnique To Be Human.. (@SmrUnique) reported

    @startca My internet is constantly going down! I have your box/modem but purchased the wifi device as per your recommendation and its constantly needing to be reset....the modem needs to be replaced per my last call with you guys. Plz help!
