Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Derek McLean (@dmclean82) reported@xplore_ca so far a 24 hour service outage in my area. No notifications from xplore as to why, or how long. Just wasting space talking about electric cars. For anyone else tired of this company please file a complaint with ccts and maybe better business bureau.
-
Gerard Cooke (@GerardCooke8) reported@xplore_ca You don’t need my account information to tell me if an upgrade is planned for the Pugwash, Nova Scotia tower and if so when. You have my name that will show I am a customer of xplore.
-
Mason (@MasonXavCam) reported@Xplore_CA is terrible. Unreliable.
-
Ally Bryant (@Eh_Bee_Sea) reportedI'm currently using my kid's phone as a hotspot just so I can try an get this dealt with. Beyond frustrating. It doesn't *actually* count as 24-7 support if NO ONE EVER ANSWERS THE PHONE. @xplore_ca - what happened!?
-
Jim Elliott (@Elli32006352Jim) reported@kevinki16180099 My internet is $50.00/month, I would think yours should be similar. Anything to do with xplornet is not good, horrible company & service.
-
Ally Bryant (@Eh_Bee_Sea) reportedNo one answering @xplore_ca "24-7" customer support line. 3 or 4 tries in the last week... on hold indefinitely. The same song plays over and over and over. Email support? Auto-reply that a "case has been opened" with no details or information about actually getting service.
-
Karel Baayen (@KarelBaayen) reported@xplore_ca is unbelievably bad. Called a few months ago for technical help and was promised a return call which never happened. Called two weeks ago, promised another return call. Never happened. Called today and was promised a return call. SMH
-
AtomicHydra (@atomic_hydra) reported@xplore_ca Still the worst isp In Canada hands down. yall get awal with highway robbery
-
Cowgirl Quinn 🇨🇦 (@GoldenDragonXll) reported@xplore_ca Wifi is still down in PEI...

Allan Wilson (@uncleal13) reported@CoryBMorgan I had Xplornet, worked great for a few years, then it would bog down in the evenings as everyone in the area was streaming video. I switched to Statlink, works much better. Currently here in Saskatchewan in my village there are crews going through running the main fiberoptic lines and should have it to all the residences sometime in the summer. I'll be switching to the fibre when I can. I like Starlink, but I don't think it is sustainable, when it is up to full capacity, to continuously launch 3,000 satellites a year to maintain a fleet of 15,000. They are low earth orbit. Meaning each satellite can only stay in orbit about 5-7 years, then it comes down and burns up.

JJ Temple (@pcman87654) reported@xplore_ca Still blows my mind how you can't update your customers during the outage but you'll share posts about bald eagles casually. Was on hold for over 3 hours trying to figure out what was going on and didn't get through to anybody.
-
Tim Mac (@TimMac1173045) reported@xplore_ca Everyone could have got Starlink and no one needed to get free money for that. Stupid corrupt government and the company is no better.
-
☘️Seán Caomhánach ☘️ (@kavs86) reported@voiceshapes I use Xplornet because Bell up here is slower than dial up. Still use the modem that came with it and have no issues
-
Indubitably Tho (@IndubitablyTho) reported@preta_6 With Starlink, while not as fast as Telus fibre (right now), you can look forward to incremental upgrades in speed, and equipment, over time. I suggested to a client suffering with only the choice of Xplornet (crap speed + outages) switch to Starlink back in 2020. Installation couldn't have been easier and reliability of his Internet connection immediately stabilized. Everything has got better since, including being sent the latest hardware for free. Starlink's plans for continuously upgrading their satellite constellation were the deal maker for me - and should be for others suffering under Xplornet.

Based Canadian (@jasonforrest) reported@CBCNews Xplornet charges far too much. Please fix this.
-
Systematic Hands (@MADmarky112) reported@xplore_ca **** xplore 160$ a month for 20mb/s with a 200 g limit is bull **** most of the time it won't work at all
-
Justus Hickey 🇨🇦 (@justushickey) reported@PrimusHelps Your customer service is non-existant. You and #Xplornet are ine in the same. Garbage.
-
AtomicHydra (@atomic_hydra) reported@xplore_ca @Victoriab1107 IM watching my signal go from 16-17 -15 SINR AND THIS IS ACCEPTABLE what..... my internet stutters and lags when it hits that low. Hands down worst service.
-
vahxo (@creeteaux) reported@xplore_ca hope you guys go up in flames. absolute dog **** internet. preying on rural communities and charging an absurd price for no more than 1.5mbps
-
Sir Jerry J. Molnár (@BlackhawkJer) reported@xplore_ca Having serious technical issues, and not being able to communicate with your support team is extremely frustrating. My family is very disappointed with your company.
-
Derek McLean (@dmclean82) reported@xplore_ca Hey thats great you have time to tweet about this stuff. Your customers would like their services to work. Filed a ccts complaint this afternoon.
-
SirFrancis Bacon (@SirFrancisBac20) reported@xplore_ca Pull it down
-
Kel.Ehh (@KelllEhhh) reported@xplore_ca have you any updates for your outage? We were told last night at 8:30pm EST that crews were dispatched and should only take 3 hours... It's been 11 hours since then and still no updates or service.
-
Arpad Hild (@zotfot) reported@Penny36274714 @reaIDonaIdTru_ Well I had xplornet and was paying $140 for 300 GB but I switched to landline internet with telus and now I pay $70 a month with a home phone and get unlimited data and much better service now too
-
🇺🇦 Mr Croft 🇺🇦 (@pcroft) reported@xplore_ca your brief 4 question survey doesn’t help. Your internet sucks! That isn’t an option. Tech support is no help and corp office is not calling about my case! Would I recommend you to a friend? That is a HARD NO!
-
Dan Wiebe (@DanWiebeFree) reported@xplore_ca Don’t believe a word of Xplorenet . I know this from personal experience and my friends and acquaintances share my experience. The speeds and data are far lower than they “sell” their service is crap. Starlink work’s terrific.
-
Becca B (@becca9913) reported@xplore_ca internet has been down in our area of North Bruce Peninsula for almost 24 hours now with no resolution in sight. Any chance you guys can look into fixing this???
-
Garth Twitchell (@GarthTwitchell) reported@Colin1Best @TownOfMiltonON @vankayak I hope you’re right Colin, but I haven’t seen anyone with plans to bring high speed service up First Line Nassagaweya north of 25 side road to Arkell road. I’m close to the Xplornet tower at 28 side road and even so, it’s hard to even do basic stuff at times.
-
Fur kid Mom 🇨🇦🇬🇱🇺🇦 (@sue_platts) reported@xplore_ca 35 mins on hold at 7:30 am cdn’t take one more round of that horrible, speaker blown sounding music.
-
AtomicHydra (@atomic_hydra) reported@xplore_ca Welll its been great I hope you guys can do some more Xploring for your internet and find better places for the towers you put up. Currently it is OFF peak time for me, according to customer service. Still bad laggy internet. Ive had ALL your available packages and no difference.
