  • juddrnaut Amanda Judd (@juddrnaut) reported

    @startca is there an outage in East York? Haven't been able to get internet for nearly an hour, router has been restarted and appears to be fine.

  • 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

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @AydaPublic @startca This is garbage service, I've been told a tech was coming twice and both times they stood me up without even a phone call.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • websnappers David (@websnappers) reported

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

  • 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 !

  • 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.

  • 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)

  • sherratt3298 p (@sherratt3298) reported

    @startca What was the issue?

  • candu_scuba Dave (@candu_scuba) reported

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

  • vasta Sameer Vasta (@vasta) reported

    @stillkvl @startca For what it’s worth, the precious service I’ve received from Start has been great. Maybe I just got the wrong person on the wrong day. Was just so dismayed by her lack of empathy and caring.

  • 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.

  • 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
