    Odd, we pay for 250mbps of internet speed but aren't receiving nearly that from @startca 🤔 unplugged the modem, the router, heck we even got a new pc today but still pretty poor on the download speed 🤔 the upload speed is exactly what we're paying for but this is odd...

    When are @Bell_Support or @startca going to offer residential fibre in downtown #ldnont? You’d think with their physical stations near/in the core this would be yesterday’s news. Appears they are OK with letting @Rogers have all the gigabit service money.

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @startca I have had 2 restart my internet twice in the first 10 mins of walking up, and this is a daily thing. Yesterday we had to restart the internet 5 times. Start was supposed to send a tech twice, both times I was stood up without a call. "Customer service" is worthless, no help.

    Disappointing @startca. Very disappointing. Bad @cnn on #USMidtermElections night. #poor

  • undauntedscion A'teya @ 6.2 (@undauntedscion) reported

    @startca so it says connected but nothing is loading, the constant issues with my internet connection is getting beyond frustrating

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @startca I have multiple friends with this service that have complained about the same problems as I have. I don't know the severity of there intermittent issues but it does seem to indicate that this isn't isolated to me.

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @startca No, we've been over this, I no longer want your help. You could have helped me the 2 times I got stood up by your tech. Now...I just want to make sure everyone knows.

  • steve_ca2002 Keep Left (@steve_ca2002) reported

    @startca You might want to brush the snow off that old dish, it's a pretty bad connection Monday Nov. 14.

  • Technoweenie1 Bryan Biller (@Technoweenie1) reported

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

  • websnappers David (@websnappers) reported

    @startca Is there an outage in the Cornwall area? We haven't had internet access for at least an hour.

  • 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.

  • 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 !

  • SRollo91 Shaun Rollo (@SRollo91) reported

    @startca once again, there are issues with the internet being down. This is a very common occurrence with you. Why is there an issue again?

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @startca This is the worst internet on the planet, if you want to stream, play a video game, play in a casino, watch music on youtube, work from home or preform any other task that requires constant internet than this is not the product for you.

  • SRollo91 Shaun Rollo (@SRollo91) reported

    @startca Can you explain why the service is so inconsistent? Because every time I've reached out, I'm always told that there is no record of an issue on your end
