  • _log1n_ Paradigm Shift (@_log1n_) reported

    @startca Pulling 192.168.100.0/24 addresses from start cable modem. Atypical. Dhcp server down?

  • gadgetwizguy Chris Goulard (@gadgetwizguy) reported from Orangeville, Ontario

    @startca when I call because the neighbourhood Internet keeps going up and down all afternoon, so a @Rogers issue AGAIN, do NOT tell me to reset my modem just put the damn ticket in. Whole area keeps going down. Just DO IT!!!

  • F8TheUncreator Ty (@F8TheUncreator) reported

    @startca you guys need to figure out a way too let us know the service is down and an estimated time it's coming back on, paying for services that don't work on a regular basis is not what anyone wants. If it's an issue with the lines you rent, time too look at new lines to run.

  • stvndxn Steven Dixon (@stvndxn) reported

    @startca any known issues in the midhurst (L4N) area? Internet has been down for an hour, modem can’t acquire downstream channels, wondering if it’s weather related or if I’m just lucky. :)

  • Olee22090047 Olee (@Olee22090047) reported

    DO NOT USE @startca. Their product is awful and their customer service is even worse. Looking at you A. Kelleher-Lizotte and Emilie C

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @beisan The worst internet I have ever had is @startca .... Technical support are nice but useless, they can't fix anything you couldn't fix yourself and when a problem happens they blame Rogers. They stood me up twice for service apt's without letting me know and still no fix.

  • SaltedCashews Christopher Lewis (@SaltedCashews) reported

    @geebs1983 @beisan @startca Ran into same, but lines were Rogers. On the Start side, I get Tier 3 help. She spent days narrowing down very odd and specific issues, and even tried to 'fudged reports to get Rogers out twice to tweak things - which worked. Love Start overall, but can't wait for their fibre.

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @startca @NeilDowsonPEC IF YOU SIGN UP FOR WELFARE SERVICE YOU GET WELFARE SERVCE. DODGE THIS GARBAGE, WELFARE SERVICE. When it works it's fine, when it doesn't they just blame the customer, or Rogers, or the Tooth Fairy, anything to get you off the phone.

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @NeilDowsonPEC @startca @startca does suck, after months of no support, no help, useless staff I finally decided to pull the plug on this welfare garbage service. The cable literally disconnected at the pole 2 weeks ago, its been lying on my lawn and they still haven't fixed it. DODGE THIS **** SERVICE!

  • George_Jungle67 George Jungle (@George_Jungle67) reported

    @startca @ally_young81 TSN4 looks awful tonight

  • T_Maniac13 a little alternative, don’t you think? 🏳️‍🌈 (@T_Maniac13) reported

    @startca Are you guys having issues out in Dufferin County? My internet has been going in and out randomly since last night.

  • George_Jungle67 George Jungle (@George_Jungle67) reported

    @startca TSN 4 looks horrible, are you still sending this in 30fps? That’s what it looks like, not so good for live sports.

  • tanneramma Tanya Park (@tanneramma) reported

    @startca is there a known outage in St.Thomas?

  • tamara_b84 Tamara (@tamara_b84) reported

    Neither @rogers and @startca will get a technician here to fix my internet after a @Rogers technician disconnected my NON-direct Rogers line while hooking up another unit's internet until tomorrow morning. Both seem to think its acceptable to make us go without internet....

  • geebs1983 Jordan (@geebs1983) reported

    @startca @Olee22090047 You were told over and over and over, I replaced literally every bit of equipement and wires in my home, including the modem and routers. I told you it was at the pole, I told you in less than fav weather the internet went in and out...YOU ALWAYS BLAME ROGERS OR THE CUSTOMER.
