    @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.

    Dear #CRTC Journo's, Words (and people) are coming to me asking if I know anything about Xplornet ending their service in Nunavut (this is what they are being told). Any info? CC: @thewirereport @CarttCa

    @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.

    @xplore_ca Why is my internet down again? I understand the outage on PE the other day but it’s now been down for 1.5 hrs. I’ve been on hold for 1/2 an hour.

    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

    @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

    @Xplornetsuppor1 @BlondeBigot11 Not sure if you chose Xplornet Support ironically or not... The single worst ISP ever. Could just be you're retarded.

    @xplore_ca I would but I’ve already talked to your people but apparently when you bought out my internet provider you trained 0 of your people on the system so support is basically non existent. Slow speeds, high cost, no customer support. What exactly am I paying these criminal rates for?

    @moegaultier @xplore_ca To transmit from customer to customer......LOL....you must be unaware of how Sattelite Internet operates.

  • fanCRTCProfling
    Commissioner Miner (@fanCRTCProfling) reported

    Everyone knows Xplore/Xplornet isn't good enough. The file even says so! They suck. Yet Telus tells people to use this option. Why? There's going to be problems that can affect life & death situations here. #CRTC

    @xplore_ca You need to review the packages you offer. Its theft saying you can offer me 50down 10 up. Over 5 years of bad service and being lied to now being told Im 30 KMS from the closest tower? Who was allowed to sell me this trash. Maybe i can move closer if you pay my rent right?

  • becca9913

    @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???

  • SkittlesClips
    ForeverSkittlesClips (@SkittlesClips) reported

    @xplore_ca I'm currently getting 0.32 mbps download and 1.55 mbps upload, this is ridiculous. Paying $100 a month for unbelievably slow speeds. I'd love to know what's going on with your internet at the moment, I'm in British Columbia 🇨🇦

    @xplore_ca The connection is back. But it was down for an hour or two.

  • Regretful_Livin
    Sagittarius (@Regretful_Livin) reported

    @xplore_ca Is this the reason why its been 10+ hours of no service and 2.5 hours of waiting on hold to figure out why its not working? Would love to actually have an update

  • lundhillbilly
    far apart & close at heart (@lundhillbilly) reported

    Just became a @SpaceXStarlink customer. Instead of the horribly slow wifi from xplornet, paying for 25 mb and actually only getting 10-15 on a good day, we now have 174+ mb. I don’t know what to say!! Get #Starlink!

    @xplore_ca Your Internet connection is very slow. Your Internet download speed is very low. Web browsing should work, but videos could load slowly. ~Can't wait until Roger's has the cable done for our area.

  • PvO385
    Peter van Oordt (@PvO385) reported

    @xplore_ca As an Xplore customer, I can attest that their service is the best when there are literally no other options available, save for maybe smoke signals and carrier pigeons.

    @xplore_ca Yeah right, and using rabbit ears and pots and pan to transmit from customer to customer…

    @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.

    @xplore_ca Don’t worry I fixed the problem it’s ur company

    @xplore_ca You need to be a premium user in order to send private messages on this platform. I've contacted my credit card company to cancel payments to your company. I will no longer be needing your services.

  • cstewartyqr
    Colin Stewart (@cstewartyqr) reported

    @tammyrobert @SaskTel What really kills me with SaskTel though is their employees' assertion that no private company would provide service in rural SK (which they don't, either). Access, RFNow, one of the satellite companies Xplornet provide internet in rural SK.

  • pandamoan
    peter sutherland (@pandamoan) reported

    What’s up Xplornet? You’re putting out a signal as reliable as a deadbeat Dad. Too little, too late. No acknowledgement. Outsourced reporting of outages. But premium prices. WTF from K0K3K0.

    @xplore_ca Pretty pic but don’t care, weak attempt to distract from stealing from people by not providing the service they pay for.

    @darrell88384848 @jayDouc3tt3 @BambinoJalapeno My only options for internet here are xplornet and Starlink , or hotspot my phone which would would require a cell booster because the cell signal is non existent.

  • apclaus
    All In (@apclaus) reported

    @xplore_ca Hands down, this is the worst company I’ve ever had the displeasure of dealing with. With other options unavailable, I had to put up with paying for 25 MB/S service but only receiving 3 MB/S and almost no upload speed. I wasted hours on the phone with them…they don’t care. 💸💸
