    @RSwartz2013 @WeatherLandG I'm with Videotron, no issues except my phone is connected to a tower across the river in Quebec, about 10km away. The Rogbellus tower 1km away is showing offline.

    .@Videotron over the past couple of weeks one of your cell towers in #Barrhaven has been malfunctioning. Despite 2-4 bars of signal strength and “LTE” displayed, no cellular data works. SMS and calls still work though. Same problem on multiple devices. #Videotron

    So @Videotron sent a collection agency to collect $$ from my 84yr old with ALS for not returning his cablebox. The issue is that the tech who installed the box put a lock on it and we could not remove. I explained to videotron reps but they just want $$ #greedy

    @Videotron Today my family and I were helped by a young lady by JouJou. She went above and beyond as a customer services representative, my daughter started to be fed up of being in her stroller and Joujou took her played with her watched movies on her tablet with her.

    @itsreallypaulh @myworldtaw I agree Videotron plans and customer service is great. We have 4 phones with them, each with 20GB/month +100GB extra per year, for $45 per phone

    @caiobchi @cmaconthehill @CityNewsKIT Videotron competition lowered prices in Quebec. Much like MTS + Sasktel did in MB / SK. Competition for the big 3. Videotron has service outside of QC, in Ottawa, same prices as QC. The big 3 and their flanker brands would not match prices of Videotron in Ottawa. We switched.

    Janine Bertolo (she/her) (@JanineBertolo) reported

    @Videotron @NoLore Totally knocked off line here in Gatineau, 2 of us wfh. I texted a friend who looked up the Videtron support phone number for me. No answer, automatic hang up and busy signal. How hard would it be for a telecomms giant to record an automated message letting ppl know what's up?

  • Videotron
    Videotron (@Videotron) reported

    @NoLore Since normal texting does not rely on the internet that would be an excellent idea! We could as long as Videotron has consent from the client in their customer center to receive texts from the company. We will pass on the idea to the appropriate department, thank you! -sms

  • HausOfAshleyy

    @Videotron I’m on an endless hold currently trying to speak to someone, can you just answer me here? My internet has been down for like 20 hours, I need to do my school work!!! I’m in Montreal (NDG), when will it gr back???

  • soitsdina
    Dina (@soitsdina) reported

    @Videotron my internet is still down... it's been down since 1pm yesterday. Is it just me or are you still having issues on your end ?

    @Videotron Is service back up for calls in Ottawa? I’m still having issues making outbound calls.

  • JanineBertolo
    Janine Bertolo (she/her) (@JanineBertolo) reported

    @Videotron My service is back online. I’m suggesting that when there’s a widespread outage Videotron could put an automated voice message on the support line to let people know, maybe even when to expect service will be restored, or how customers can be reimbursed for lost service.

  • MetalWifeLife

    @Jamseyyboi @Videotron Same here! What’s going on, Videotron? We tried chat for help but it disconnected. And phone help is out of business hours!
