ScorpioSymbol (@IvanMakesGames) reported
The absolute worst thing about switching to @Videotron s newest internet/cable is that when your cable goes down now, so does your TV :( (It goes down a lot...)
-
Commissioner Miner (@fanCRTCProfling) reported
Based on the #CRTC rules in regards to the outage reports, and the fact the no one else filled an outage report, we can conclude Bell actually own Rogers, Freedom and Videotron, or they just buy access from Bell which, per the rules, is allowed to be hidden.

@Videotron I mean.. we call everytime and are always told the problem is on your end (like right now... 3hr estimate)

@JMReynolds Never had a blockbuster in my town. We had Videotron and most of the time, they didn't have the movie we wanted to watch when we wanted to watch it.

Mr. FrozenToast (@Rafi_Farkas) reported
@Videotron my internet is down for the last 30 minutes. Tried to reset the router and modem, no luck. Is there an outage?

is anyone’s videotron internet super slow? mine has been like this since yesterday but not sure if it’s just me.

🇨🇦 Gary Simmons (@garysimmons) reported
@freedomsupport I'm moving to Montreal in May... Is there any chance we'll see an integration of the Videotron Quebec network that quickly so that I don't have to leave Freedom?
-
HammerofSparx (@KevinAn45942701) reported
@DouglasPollitt While I 💯 agree there is a ton of anti-competition stuff, I haven’t been able pin down what says they HAVE TO report scores. Does CBC? Local news? Do newspapers? (it bugs me that OS didn’t prove their case by getting on Cogeco, SaskTel, Videotron etc. Would’ve been faster)
-
Dwayne Winseck (@mediamorphis) reported
@Bryson_M @BenKlass @MersereauMichel +1 to this pt. The Tribunal put great weight on how competitive backhaul markets were & how that would underpin the success of Videotron as a replacement for Freedom Mobile & even as a new rival for bundled ISP & TV services. All w/ no public data to support the claim.

James Somaeck (@somaeck) reported
To end this thread, I'd ask @Videotron: 1) Is there a plan to implement #eSim? Don't simply say it's not available -- we know that! The question is whether there is a plan? 2) If "yes" to #1, what is the timeline to rollout? Saying it's a "non-issue" just doesn't cut it. 9/9

Paul Nagy (@PaulWNagyJr) reported
@Videotron No problem. I know you were busy. We got it back Tuesday. Thank you. I did use most of my 24 GB of mobile data though... I still have quite a bit of the 20 GB monthly bonus left... but will the data be cut off if I get to the end of that 20 GBs before the cycle finishes on May 6?

Arka Chatterjee (@arkachatter1986) reported
@Videotron You seem to be getting worser by the day , maybe the monopoly is catching up to you ... Every day my internet is down for 2 to 3 times.

James Somaeck (@somaeck) reported
In her response, she had made clear she was not trying to minimize what I was saying, but she said that my issues were "non-issues". She followed up by saying that if I stick with @Videotron, #eSim should be supported by the time I finish my contract in 2024. Seriously? 6/9

Commissioner Miner (@fanCRTCProfling) reported
W/ wholesale we have CNOC members Distributel, Vmedia, Start, Ebox etc All owned by Bell, Rogers Videotron & Telus. What are they going to do here lock people into mobile-Internet bundles? Bundles to save 10$ off cruddy #CRTC service costs in 2yr contracts? A god send? Dunno..
-
Commissioner Miner (@fanCRTCProfling) reported
There are still no #CRTC outage reports from the ice storm that knocked comm's out for: -Videotron -Rogers -Freedom (which also negated French service during the outage) -Flanker brands -Resellers/wholesalers (Storm Internet aside)

Miss McSilly | Montréal, Qc (@MissMcSilly) reported from Renaud, Québec
If you have a business please do NOT use @Videotron nor Vidéotron Affaire. They are the worst. I’ve been on the line for 1:20 being pass around like it’s a ********! All I’m trying to do is paid them and ask about my plan…that’s the worst part 🥲
-
Miss McSilly | Montréal, Qc (@MissMcSilly) reported from Renaud, Québec
If you decide to register your business and need a provider PLEASE DO NOT USE @Videotron They are the worst. Overpriced and their customer service is the worst. I’ve been on the line over 1h 30 and they keep transferring me like a ping pong ball! 🏓

James Somaeck (@somaeck) reported
I reached out to @Videotron today to inquire into contractual penalties for ending the services I have with them. I have no qualms with the product - it has been pretty good. #eSim and unified billing though are not available. A thread on what went down... 1/9
-
Cass (@cassieloves1013) reported
@TimothyHansford @codedandunited They will never allow another team in Canada which is crap. The Videotron Center where the Remparts play is already NHL ready. No team. Hamilton? Nope. But they want to put another team in Atlanta or in Houston? Makes no sense.
-
James Somaeck (@somaeck) reported
The greatest concern RE: #eSim is that #Videotron has been absolutely silent on it. The forums are filled with crisp responses - "Not available, but we'll pass it up along the chain". That's not good enough in my view. It's not cutting-edge; it's not customer-focused. 8/9
-
Brandon Caron (@b2caron) reported
@FreedomMobile will Freedom's home network be expanded with Videotron's Quebec network? I don't want to be roaming when I go to Montreal anymore 😢

@clogicca @Videotron You attitude is worst . If that is how you define civility we are in big trouble

Lex Harvey (@lexharvs) reported
Cllr Ainslie asks why not emulate the model in Montreal? In 2013, Bell, Rogers, Telus and Quebec-based Videotron invested equally in a $50-million project to bring cell service to Montreal’s Metro.
-
Commissioner Miner (@fanCRTCProfling) reported
Still no #CRTC outage reports from: -Videotron -Rogers -Wholesale/resale (Storm Internet aside) -Freedom mobile (which also couldn't provide french service during the outage).
-
Kush Thaker (@kushthaker) reported
why make seniors talk about chat assistance, why not a central regulated agent for all telecom service? duopoly + Videotron continue compete across country
-
Commissioner Miner (@fanCRTCProfling) reported
@BigBadJuan They want to charge for a service that was not &could not be delivered. There are still no reports from: -Videotron -Rogers -Freedom -Flanker brands -Resellers/wholesalers (Storm Internet aside)

Max (@MightyMax44) reported
So I have RDS on my tv with videotron. But when I try to log in the webdiffusion with my RDS account it says I need to pay for rds? What ********?
-
somecanuckchick 🍁@somecanuckchick@mastodon.world (@somecanuckchick) reported
@TekSavvyCSR @Videotron And we get to start the phone calls ALL OVER AGAIN tomorrow b/c @Videotron seems keen to NOT come back out despite screwing up the TPIA (but claiming a non-existant outage b/c we have cable TV) and forcing us to call TekSavvy instead of sending back the Vidéotron technician.
