Xplore Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TheTechnicianhd Bars Stallone (@TheTechnicianhd) reported

    @Xplornet This is the worst service out there. Best case scenario take there internet speed you pay for and divide it by 10. That’s what you will get. Example 50 mbps you will actually get 5 mbps.

  • BrentHCameron Brent H. Cameron 🇨🇦🇦🇺🇳🇿🇬🇧🇸🇬🇺🇦 (@BrentHCameron) reported

    @Xplornet - I appreciate all the warm and fuzzy tweets about photo contests & film festivals, but probably 1000s of your clients aren't even getting the usual 0.05 MB you deliver. Maybe acknowledge there's an issue on your account to give us the impression that you care?

  • MarivicCochrane Marivic Cochrane (@MarivicCochrane) reported

    @Xplornet @XploreMobile Avoid @Xplornet . It's horrible. And a rip off. Stupid expensive for a metered data plan. Get Starlink. 10times faster ,unlimited and doesn't lose connection constantly.

  • Marmieowner Dogluvr (@Marmieowner) reported

    @Xplornet I don't have time right now, thanks. I've spent several hours on the phone already with technical support in the last few weeks. The outages are always weather related. It hardly ever rains or snows. It is always the wind.

  • justushickey Justus Hickey 🇨🇦 (@justushickey) reported from Brockton, Ontario

    Still unable to cancel @Xplornet 's "service". Couple months now. They will email me telling me to call them, and spam my voicemail with digital messages telling me to call. When you call these pricks, you are put on hold until you give up. Zero customer service whatsoever.

  • Mr_Jizac MrJizac (@Mr_Jizac) reported

    @Xplornet you really over sell your fixed internet service. It’s literally useless. It’s up and down so much I can’t even keep track. My house is 2km away from the tower location, the service should be simple. Why are you stating the availability when it’s not?

  • kristinaennis Kristina Ennis (@kristinaennis) reported

    @patgjanes Xplornet works without any telecoms infrastructure/cell service?

  • billwalkerPR Bill Walker (@billwalkerPR) reported

    ‘“What I’m seeing here is that the bureau wants someone who’s got enough cash and knows how to run a cell service and, for whatever reason, they don’t think Xplornet is that person.”’ I couldn’t agree more.

  • USmarketsucks Millennial, But Boomer (@USmarketsucks) reported

    @Xplornet @WhistleOut_CA Seriously, xplornet is awful. And their sales staff are full of sht. They will 100% lie to you.

  • JohnnyKasudluak Johnny ❄ ᔮᓂ ᖃᓴᓪᓗᐊᖅ (@JohnnyKasudluak) reported

    I'm so fed up of Xplornet. Little cloud cover, and service becomes intermittent.

  • 87743gamberr 87743gamberr (@87743gamberr) reported

    @spacexstarlink AND @elonmusk Starlink support truly sucks. No accessible ticketing system. No responses from email support. Over 1K paid(over months) and 2 days use before breakdown. Have to fallback to @Xplornet which is more reliable. Please get better support system.

  • MadsTS Mads Sandbakken (@MadsTS) reported

    It's so insulting to pay so much for such poor service. @Xplornet wish I was also watching play off hockey on the app I pay for...

  • spencerstj lit (@spencerstj) reported

    @Xplornet your internet is absolutely garbage, once fibre comes into the picture i cannot wait to remove your internet.

  • alyarascavitch Amanda Yarascavitch (@alyarascavitch) reported

    @Xplornet I wish you had a customer outage map somewhat like hydro so we knew what was going on with our internet.

  • Bailey606 Cory Bailey (@Bailey606) reported

    @Xplornet Why do you have a support email address if any time somebody sends a message to it, they receive an automated email that tells them to phone a number. Why have an email if you don’t intend to respond to the email? This is classic big business garbage service. Useless

  • MattBerlett Matthew Berlett (@MattBerlett) reported

    @justushickey @Xplornet I was able to cancel mine with no issues

  • albertaclassic Natalie McCormick (@albertaclassic) reported

    @Xplornet U r charging me 140/m & hav now throttled me down, 1 can hardly wait for @SpaceXStarlink for my area. Hurry up @elonmusk connect northern AB, this is BS.

  • DBSLarsson Dale 🇨🇦 🆎 (@DBSLarsson) reported

    @TheAstroKiwi Already know of, what, 8+ StarLink dishes around here. Rapidly replacing the TELUS SmartHubs / XplorNet dishes as they are garbage when the cell towers only put out anywhere from no bars to two.

  • 8220 Henry (@8220) reported

    @Xplornet My internet is down (off) at 826 Barcovan Beach Road, Carrying Place, Account 1505343. But I cannot find any outage listed on xplornet. Why?

  • patgjanes Patrick Janes (@patgjanes) reported

    @kristinaennis Neither Xplornet satellite nor Starlink require mobile service. Xplornet has 2 types of rural service - 1 strictly satellite, & the other (less expensive/faster) service needs line of sight to a mobile phone tower.

  • Badenoch1 Paul Rhodes (@Badenoch1) reported

    If you are an @xplornet customer it helps to have a back up system. One storm and they are out for a day (and counting.) No response from their (smirk) customer service on when service will be restored.

  • patgjanes Patrick Janes (@patgjanes) reported

    @kristinaennis If not in range of mobile phone service, satellite is your only option. Xplornet & Starlink are expensive - both equipment & subscription fees. Both require technical skills to set up, and you'll also need a stable power source. Neither is cost-effective to set up for a few days.

  • patgjanes Patrick Janes (@patgjanes) reported

    @kristinaennis Satellite internet may be your only option - Xplornet or Starlink. Xplornet also has less expensive/faster wireless internet service - available in a lot of semi-remote areas. For that you need to be within range of their systems which are located on mobile phone towers.

  • cad9769 COLLEEN (@cad9769) reported

    @Xplornet any idea how long the outage will be ?

  • SmittyProblems Jeremy Smith (@SmittyProblems) reported

    @Dell_is_Poo @SpaceXStarlink Data is unlimited and service is about $150 CAD. The first year was good, but they seem to have done the same as Xplornet and sold more dishes than they have capacity for.

  • berkypigs2008 Alan Irving (@berkypigs2008) reported

    Well @xplornet your service is terrible. Wifi has been off most of Wednesday afternoon and has again been off since Thursday afternoon and it’s still off. It’s about time u got it sorted out. #nowifiinroundhillAB #bringbackcci

  • lidtkie J. Lidtkie (@lidtkie) reported

    @Xplornet Been a customer for years, yes there are bumps sometimes as with any company. Far better than the 2 other services that cover this area. More towers would be a good improvement.

  • Marmieowner Dogluvr (@Marmieowner) reported

    @Xplornet @WhistleOut_CA But it doesn't work most of the time.

  • nigh1999 Savannah Nigh (@nigh1999) reported

    @Xplornet any update on WIFI services near Tignish PE? i haven’t been able to work from home all day (lost a day of work), or submit school assignments (2 due at 2pm today) … and it’s still not working, worried I won’t be able to work again tomorrow.

  • berkypigs2008 Alan Irving (@berkypigs2008) reported

    @Xplornet your service SUCKS NO wifi since THURSDAY. And your customer service does not know when it will be up and running again.#bringbackCCiwireless
