    .@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.

    Hey @Videotron, the tech support handle shown in the customer centre app @videotron24_7 doesn't seem to exist.

  • 3_punch Gilles Monvoisin (@3_punch) reported from Gatineau, Québec

    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

  • IssaCheckmate Issa Sissoko (@IssaCheckmate) reported from Montréal, Québec

    @Videotron still charged me upfront $388+ tax with installation fees of $60 even though I chose to pay in $12 for 24 months. When my bill came out on July 9th, I called customer service. They told me it was a mistake and that they would see what they could do. Lol

  • Jojokofficial_ 💋 (@Jojokofficial_) reported

    @IssaCheckmate @Videotron WTF @Videotron this is actually horrible. I’m so sorry you went through that. I’m definitely never going to go with their services and will make sure no one around me ever does either!

  • IssaCheckmate Issa Sissoko (@IssaCheckmate) reported from Montréal, Québec

    I switched to @Videotron on June 8th 2021. They offered their high speed internet service, Helix with no installation fees. They gave me 2 options: - Pay for equipment upfront: $388+ tax OR - Pay $12 + tax/month for 24 months. I went with the 2nd option. But guess what?
