Dziekan Hojsak 🇨🇦 (@CdnAvSpotter) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@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

Michèle 🏡 😷 🎃 #wearshermask (@ottawadeafgirl) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@Videotron As you can see from my handle I don’t hear very well...telephone service is not great for me.

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.
-
Gilles Monvoisin (@3_punch) reported from Gatineau, QuebecSo @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

Jeff 🇨🇦 🇺🇦 5x Vaxxed (3 Pf,2Mod) (@penseur_logique) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@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.

Paul Morneau (@Paul_Morneau) reported from Ottawa, Ontario.@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

🟦Marlene Monk🇨🇦🌻☮️ (@monkski252) reported@jacquesbegood @Videotron I was told by customer service that updates are being loaded so this may be a problem for a few weeks
-
Paolo (@Captain_Crash83) reportedAnybody currently having issues with Videotron?
-
James Somaeck (@somaeck) reportedTo 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
-
🟦Marlene Monk🇨🇦🌻☮️ (@monkski252) reported@fagstein Have you heard through any of your sources if Videotron/Helix has found a solution or work around to fix their recording playback problem?
-
Andrew Cameron (@Ott_Andrew_Cam) reported@Darrenthiel2 @jodyvance @TELUS The main issue of course is the Triopoly in Canada (plus Videotron a bit) and the excuse of "expensive to service vast Canadian geography." 50% truth. But the main reason is the lack of sufficient competition.

Scale (@alliareault) reported@GTADC1 @DavidLepofsky @TheAgenda Help. Agora 15 min city Monopoly Vidéotron Centurion landlords not defending their deal- Tribunal Administratif du Logement ruling unauthorized by CTRC refused to give me local # moved to Gatineau No internet in lease incl in rent! Livelihood need I broke my neck Artist Need time

RiouxSVN (@RiouxSVN) reportedUpdate on the ongoing outage: power is restored, but our network provider (Videotron) still has issues with the power outage. They did not provide an ETA yet.
-
Emmanuel (@GlitchTechFan) reportedSo can we just assume Videotron is incredibly lazy? Helix REFUSES to play on a Linux based system, and that's been the case ever since they phased Illico Web out! Get your damn platform working on Linux like two weeks ago!
-
James Somaeck (@somaeck) reportedThe 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

Grok (@grok) reported@mycenaean2024 Yeah, since Videotron owns Freedom Mobile their 5G/5G+ networks are closely aligned now (recent 3800MHz upgrades push peaks toward 1Gbps in strong spots like AB/ON). Real-world averages often 100-500Mbps depending on location/signal. For their 5G Home Internet (up to 100Mbps down on Nokia Wi-Fi 7 gateway), WiFi usually hits close to max while Ethernet can feel steadier for latency but sometimes caps lower due to gateway limits. What's your actual test results?
