  • SeanGemm Shawn Jemmett (@SeanGemm) reported

    @lara_stovern what do you use for Internet? I have Xplornet at camp but it is almost not usable during the summer months and most evenings. Texts barely go through. Some neighbours are getting Starlink but would be an issue for me during the winter because we are on solar.

  • Robert_Hammond Robert H (@Robert_Hammond) reported

    Hey @Xplornet just wondering if they have tried turning the Odessa, #YGK / Kingston tower off and back on again? Or do you have to order in parts to fix it? I know sometimes these things take time but could you at least update the call centre folks with an update or ETA?

  • BalogSusan Susan Balog (@BalogSusan) reported

    @LimestoneDSB Sorry for the kids on maple road in Odessa...internet down mist of the time for past 5 days due to xplornet waiting to fix " because of the holidays"

  • alfred131 alfred dockstader (@alfred131) reported

    @Xplornet Quick question Is there an ETA on any upcoming updates on speeds for satellite service?

  • MaureenParent7 Maureen Parent (@MaureenParent7) reported

    @sharonhoyes @Xplornet Xplornet called me a couple of months ago and said they were going to do a ‘preemptive’ fix as the noticed my internet was slow. They came out, it got worse, then they told me my warranty was up and would have to pay for future visits. 😳

  • Serena_writes Serena🇨🇦🇮🇹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@Serena_writes) reported

    @ALGfreedom @newhandle17 @elonmusk I got out of my Xplornet contract: caught them in a lie. They told me ‘no prob’ working from home. But the latency prevented me from connecting to work network!! (Signal to satellite too slow esp w/ VPN). I’ll research Starlink, if any latency issues & of avail here. Should be:

  • Robert_Hammond Robert H (@Robert_Hammond) reported

    @Xplornet The good news? The new LTE service is installed with Ping’s of 45msec~. The sad news is that we haven’t heard anything more about the service outage on the original equipment and the only reason we’re connected now is because “WE”initiated the LTE update. #YGK #Odessa #xplornet

  • txwikinger_ea txwikinger (@txwikinger_ea) reported

    @Xplornet is all your staff already on #Omicron isolation leave or why is your Internet not working?

  • Co_opCate Cate (@Co_opCate) reported

    @ONTSpecialNeeds Bell was cheaper. Maybe $80 per month. But it was slow. So bad that we ended up getting Xplornet as well (so 2 internet providers) and tethering off of phone data as well. Starlink is much better.

  • CILDominion Rod Jamieson (@CILDominion) reported

    @garrett_wolf3 @Xplornet @elonmusk Had them for a couple months....never getting that time back!

  • Robert_Hammond Robert H (@Robert_Hammond) reported

    @Xplornet Thanks for the update. Your customer service folks tell us: It might be an issue with the tower and they were working on it Tuesday (2 days ago) Or that our radio/equipment is now too old to connect to the tower now. Or that we should power on/off our modem+radio one more time.

  • garrett_wolf3 Garrett Wolf (@garrett_wolf3) reported

    @RagenKajen @NETAGOwireless CCI was terrible, then @Xplornet bought them and it got even worse. There’s a reason everyone went from Xplornet to CCI in the first place. We have to have wifi off on our phones in order to stream tv in the evenings. Even then sometimes we just give up on it.

  • KittensCoat KittensCoat ♡ Accessories (@KittensCoat) reported

    @kylebryson10 @Xplornet Try never receiving it, and still paying their god awful prices.

  • WendyFo93193475 Wendy Forbes (@WendyFo93193475) reported

    @evilplasticfork That’s big news my internet has been down for 3 days …no access to anything. Xplornet sucks

  • soultrain123 Tracy L. (@soultrain123) reported

    Our @SpaceXStarlink kit can’t come soon enough. I can’t wait to destroy our @Xplornet dish. Xplornet has been down since December 29 with zero action on the ‘case’ I opened. 43 minute call back time, no call back. I call back and wait 25 minutes. New call back time 52 minutes…

  • reikokoyama79 Reiko Koyama (@reikokoyama79) reported

    Hey @Xplornet I got to deal with your rude predatory CSR when cancelling was my service with you, now you send me an invoice for a late payment, on a closed account? I thought your CSR was predatory, guess it's your standard practices.

  • Riemann97885212 Riemann (@Riemann97885212) reported

    @Xplornet We Canadians cannot begin to explain how happy we are that Starlink is going to slowly decimate your awful company.

  • whiskeyfated WhiskyTangoFaded (@whiskeyfated) reported

    @Xplornet has the WORST internet. You sell fast speeds apparently... Yet you never get those speeds. How dare you sell speeds for the cost you do. **** your company, the owners, share holders and higher up. You all deserve the fr revolution on your heads.

  • sharonhoyes Sharon Hoyes (@sharonhoyes) reported

    @MaureenParent7 @Xplornet Sounds about right. A few months ago @Xplornet did a fix on our tower. Service was great and what we were paying for, for 2 days. Then they notified us of second ‘fix’ and results have been poor again since then. Clearly they can deliver, just won’t.

  • mellybelle57 Melodie Osborne Scott (@mellybelle57) reported

    @Xplornet why does my service keep going out. Going on for last 3 days. Between Port Perry/Lindsay

  • VoosieVooters Lomaxcat (@VoosieVooters) reported

    @Xplornet @thebrain2012 I have been waiting 12 days for a service app't. I have no internet at all. Repeated calls get nowhere but a new promise of an app't. Disgraceful. Did get my monthly invoice on time though. Funny how you never miss that.

  • _lukemunro Luke Munro (@_lukemunro) reported

    @Xplornet I contacted your customer support yesterday. I waited 1 hr 25 min on hold to get through. They couldn't help me and said they would pass my issue on to a specialized service team who is not available 24/7. I have yet to hear back. This issue has gone on for three days now.

  • thinkinggal22 Rose (@thinkinggal22) reported

    @brianlilley Eventually they will all just go back to TV because to be honest, the quality of these streaming services on most internet services that we can afford is terrible. None of these actually can stream on basic xplornet service. So not sure what all the hype of this is.

  • whiskeyfated WhiskyTangoFaded (@whiskeyfated) reported

    @Xplornet Get better ******* internet Signed a disgruntled customer

  • garrett_wolf3 Garrett Wolf (@garrett_wolf3) reported

    @CadeTreacy @Xplornet @elonmusk I haven’t heard a single bad review. Glad we held off on getting a Telus hub, they ended up not being all they were cracked up to be in our area.

  • Irngutaq2 Gordy Kidlapik ❄️E1-644 (@Irngutaq2) reported

    @Maqaiti @northwestel We were reaching monthly limits with our Xplornet package within couple weeks during the last lockdown, causing our data to slow right down. Must be much more frustrating in places like Iqaluit

  • BoydinNL Boyd Merrill (@BoydinNL) reported

    @Xplornet has got to be the worst most frustrating internet service provider in the world! Terrible. #awful

  • BaldurBarons Nyles Desrochers (@BaldurBarons) reported

    @SteveArdiel If I had unlimited on my phone it would be better tethering to my phone than garbage xplornet.

  • thebrain2012 Matthew Thomas (@thebrain2012) reported

    @Xplornet is there something wrong with the towers around Belleville, ON? Service has been incredibly slow for a week now.

  • DJLO whatajokeffs (@DJLO) reported

    @Xplornet Please enjoy fixing your broken service for your paying customers.
