    @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.

    @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.

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

    @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

    @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.

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

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

    @Videotron I am beyond frustrated. I work from home and the Internet cuts every 5-10 mins it’s been a solid 2 hours I am not able to work. It’s very infuriating when you can’t even work because the wifi keeps going down.

  • PaulWNagyJr
    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?

    @jacquesbegood @Videotron I was told by customer service that updates are being loaded so this may be a problem for a few weeks

    Anyone else with Videotron/Helix having issues?

  • somaeck
    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

    Ya’ll I rarely tweet about companies online but I just feel a simpler option could be easily made available. Videotron has that option. Bell, you can do it too. I believe in you. Please fix this problem. It’s annoying and makes me want to just get rid of the TV option entirely.

    @Videotron outage in the H9X 3B6 area since 11 am. Please help I can't work.

  • peteypopetey
    PeteyPoPetey (A user) 🇨🇦 #ReleaseTheNames (@peteypopetey) reported

    Freedom wasn't great for cell phones (lots of complaints online) but since Videotron bought them I expect things to be much better. We switched on phone to Freedom and so far, other than a bumpy setup(*), it's been great. *They put the wrong # in one of the account fields so RCS wouldn't work, couldn't explain how and couldn't fix it until we went two service tiers up. Also twice claimed they sent emails which somehow never arrived.

  • Milnoc
    François Caron 🇨🇦 (@Milnoc) reported

    @fanCRTCProfling Nope. One important aspect of Videotron is that the service is reliable and the billing's accurate. I never have to fight with them.

  • takarajewels
    Panda🌻 (@takarajewels) reported

    The thrilling sequel: apparently it’s NOT possible to filter TV channels to only see what I subscribe to. Ya’ll I will head on back to Videotron at this rate, wtf. At least with them I don’t have to scroll past 28394 channels I don’t pay for to get to the ones I do. 💀
