  Winter (it/that) 🇸🇰🇨🇦 (@WinterBourneTO) reported 9 minutes ago

  @FreedomMobile @Videotron @Quebecor Well you can access my account all you want but it’s an issue on your end, not mine. It’s most likely a tower issue or something. Idk. I don’t work for the telecoms. I have great reception on many of the side streets connecting to Quebec as I drove many of them but not all.

  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.

  @JaredDapena Not sure if they’re out east, but I switched to videotron years ago. With their bring your own device rate it’s much cheaper and way better service than all the big 3

  And all 3 also operate under their own names So you got a total of 9 different carriers, but in reality it's actually 3 Videotron, Freedom, and Sasktel are the only independent cell providers in Canada There was MTS (Manitoba Telecom Service) but Bell took them over in 2017

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

  So Bell, Cogeco, Videotron and CNOC wanted a cartel where everyone must be paying CNOC members to wholesale internet at affordable rates. **** CNOC. For Bell Cogeco, Rogers & Videotron to push this, they sure as hell want protection from another bundle player. No denying that.

  @80000divastrike we use videotron in my house but honestly it's just "bell but smaller and also the customer service doesn't tell you to go to hell when you contact them"

  I reached out to @Videotron today to inquire into contractual penalties for ending the services I have with them. I have no qualms with the product - it has been pretty good. #eSim and unified billing though are not available. A thread on what went down... 1/9

  Money isn't even an issue anymore. It's ideology. Vidéotron more than happy to pay my 900$ bill they manufactured when they refused to give me a local phone # & forced me to keep so I could still have internet- They used this bill to disconnect it anyway & openly admitted to denying me router/access to Centrurion Corporative Intrrnet/tv account- the only CRTC authorized internet/tv account at my location- Global 15 minute city Agora in Gatineau. My lease should guarantee me. So what I'm poor I can't survive w/out internet- no one can bit especially me a as a disabled artist! I SIGNED THE LEASE. IT'S TOO LATE. LEASE IS TREATY. I'M SO ANGRY. I've been without internet since Oct 2024
