    .@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 As you can see from my handle I don’t hear very well...telephone service is not great for me.

  • 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

  • Christopherprov Christopher provost (@Christopherprov) reported from Chelsea, Québec

    @Videotron seems to be a major outage but not able to contact you.

  • AllieKnitNinja Allie MacAlister (@AllieKnitNinja) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @brianjpapineau I went from Wind/Freedom to Koodo and never looked back, but I hear good things about Videotron.

  • christinasprong Christina (@christinasprong) reported

    @videotron Helix internet service is down in St-Leonard, hopefully it will be resolved quickly…#videotron

  • Kaiyoria Kaiyoria (@Kaiyoria) reported

    🥳FREEDOM HAPPINESS Quit my internet company vmedia garbage after so many days of stress and no service and constant back and forth. This morning went to a videotron boutique not far from me signed up got the router/modem on the spot got home connected it worked instantly relief!

  • LoveThePlateau Marion Bialek (@LoveThePlateau) reported

    @Videotron Videotron Helix signals are week and breaking up in Gatineau. Technical chat line is down. Telephone line to technical issues not taking calls. What’s happening!

  • phqer phqe phqer (@phqer) reported

    @fagstein No, because "Videotron" is too well known as Quebec company. People out west might be less interested in doing business with a company they know is run by them horrible quebecers! ;)

  • Milnoc François Caron (@Milnoc) reported

    @fagstein Considering how bad of a reputation the Freedom brand has, rebranding it might help, but only if the service improves dramatically so as not to harm the Videotron brand.

  • zerojay Jaaaaaayyyyy (@zerojay) reported from Montréal, Québec

    Videotron internet is down anyways so even if my modem was spared, I'd still be unable to work.

  • hfiguiere Hubert Figuière (@hfiguiere) reported

    @fanCRTCProfling They are not hydro, 100% certain. They are Bell and carry Videotron among other things. And serve the whole block. Point it the inbalance is here. Me? Get overpriced service. Competition? They get blocked. Bell? They pocket the money. Free market they call that.

  • topher_carr Chris. (@topher_carr) reported

    @westerdale10 @steelershockey Uh-oh, I'm getting the feeling the new videotron might be 4 65" TV's taped together (well, maybe not that bad but the 'Nottingham had help funding theirs' comment/pre-excuse doesn't set expectations too high) I hope to be proved wrong when we see it in September

  • hfiguiere Hubert Figuière (@hfiguiere) reported

    Obviously, @videotron NEVER tested the emergency alert system.

    Also learned the following about @Videotron service in #ottcity #OldOttawaSouth "Also it seems there is an outage with one of the mobile tower in your neighbourhood."
