-
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
-
Mark Carruthers (@MarkC_Avgi) reported@jzantinge2 @KenSchaus We had Xplornet from the time of them first offering service in our area &, after being without any internet for 2 months in 2020, we changed to another non-Bell / non-Rogers internet service provider. Fibre has been laid in our area to be connected soon.
-
Mamabear 🇨🇦 🏴 (@freshouttafacks) reported@ContrarianTribe I live in Ontario and Starlink is the only way I have internet. Our download speed was 0.5 with xplornet and Shaw. We couldn’t do online learning during covid. We got starlink and now 7 of us can stream, play online games and work at the same time with zero issue.
-
✝️ JB (@jordanbranscomb) reported@Starlink my remote oil and gas clients are pretty upset, considering it was a 3 hour outage. it’s first outage on record since we cut them over from xplornet tho
-
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
-
Onkwehonwe Organics (@OnkwehonweHerbs) reported@xplore_ca Been dealing with an issue since November. I had 3 routers & 3 accounts. Went down to 2 accounts w new equipment. Now my new equipment doesn’t work & my account was cancelled. Tech sup is as confused as I am. It’s Friday, I have no internet probably all weekend. Great!
-
Sagittarius (@Regretful_Livin) reported@xplore_ca No service for over six hours and can't even get a hold of a support agent or anything. You're luckyI don't have any other option in this area. I would switch in a heartbeat
-
Mitchell Mcintosh (@kujala_good) reported@xplore_ca You need to fix your internet it's getting really annoying I use YouTube to help me sleep and it never works I try resetting and nothing
-
CJH (@CJH39493411) reported@xplore_ca Why? I told you I’ve talked to you guys. Unless you trained a bunch of people in the last week you are asking me to waste more of my time on a company that doesn’t value its customers. For what? So YOU can feel better because you can say you tried to help? Pathetic!
-
Tybernicus (@Tybernicus17) reported@LeoNasau @thinking_panda Yep. 36,000km is the same as the Telesat satellites that were support Xplornet sat internet. My average latency was 670ms with that gear. Useless tech. Starlink: 550km from earth Telesat: 36,000km from earth.
-
Ryan Morey (@RyanMor83438655) reported@xplore_ca internet down Minburn tower 2 days ago most of the day, yesterday most of the day and this morning still. Asking what others have … where do you post outages so we know what is happening?
-
Michael Quinlan (@MikeSQuinlan) reported@Iraqveteran8888 That is as bad as Xplornet. I guess I will not be switching over to Starlink anytime soon unless they can crank up the speed and reliability.
-
🇺🇦 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!
-
Christina Sawisky 🧡 (@CSawisky) reported from Macdonald, ManitobaBecause #Xplornet sucks so bad I’ve used all my data. I need a better option!
-
Syd_Vakarian (@Syd_Vakarian) reported@xplore_ca wow, you charge $75 for someone to come to my house to test and see if I can get service. and if I can't, then I have to pay the $75, but if there's service available at my house I don't have to pay the $75 for the test. what in the hell is that? Gross.
-
Clint Howard (@Haywire_45) reportedAnyone else’s Starlink really slow today? It’s as bad as xplornet was.
-
AtomicHydra (@atomic_hydra) reported@xplore_ca Its actually IMPOSSIBLE to meet any deadlines with this quality. Moving is not an option. This is not my problem. Its pretty sad when employees admit the over-crowed panels that customers are on.
-
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!?
-
Brett Petracek (@BrettRace) reported@LyttonW90219 @Martyupnorth_2 The satellite xplornet was migraine inducing. Their tower service is much better, but i don't think they offer above 50mbps yet. If they don't offer faster speeds/higher bandwidth soon I might be going to starlink.
-
Chavela (@chavela85) reported@xplore_ca been having problems with your internet for a month. Now it's super slow and I have to wait for some technical department! Customer service sucks!!! Why does it take so long to get resolutions??!! Going to have to go back to starlink.
-
Tybernicus (@Tybernicus17) reported@MajJensen3 @OJoelsen Why would he? In 2021 I bought a house on a paved road 6kms from a small town. Not even Xplornet was available. Cell signal very weak. If not for Starlink, I and many others would have no internet access.
-
☘️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
-
James Carruthers (@HydraulicDesign) reported@xplore_ca sent someone to "upgrade" my service to a new nearby tower and my service went from "fair" to "almost unusable." The contractor brushed off my immediately noticing it was worse as if I can't tell the difference between my wifi and my Net speed.
-
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.
-
Brandon Murphy (@brandonmurph10) reported. @xplore_ca you are an absolute joke. I would fold up that business and never say I was associated with them if I had any relationship with these scammers
-
AtomicHydra (@atomic_hydra) reported@xplore_ca Starting at 59.99 Until you end up paying 125$/month for THEE worst service in Canada hands down.
-
jarvisa2002 (@jarvisa2002) reportedDo you even have tech support available?! I called in an wait for 46 minutes this morning. 1 hour 15 minutes tonight, and at 20 minutes now with no response! This is unacceptable! I'm so ready to leave this service. 😡 @xplore_ca
-
Devin Rabey (@Devin_Rabey) reported@moegaultier @xplore_ca To transmit from customer to customer......LOL....you must be unaware of how Sattelite Internet operates.
-
Ghost0zz516 (@ghost0zz5143458) reported@ICcrapdaily @Xplornetsuppor1 @MarkReid42 *Xplornet Support* Dude literally fronts a company that wouldn't exist if not for tax payer subsidies. The CEO is literally Mark Carney and Trudeau's buddy.
-
Right Central Views (@Right_Central) reported@xplore_ca It's overly expensive for no reason. The recent upgrade I got is a lot more stable but there are times it is absolute dog **** for the 100+ dollars I pay a month for 50mbs. Waiting for Fibre to come down my road.
