-
J Snow (@DrewPeacock705) reported@xplore_ca Oh ya? 3 calls to cancel advising AH was deceased and offered death certificate. Still got billed another month and called only to have agent demand to speak to my dead father. Two calls later and it is cancelled. 5 calls total to cancel.
-
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.

Sean Uppy (@Suppy86) reported@_BrookesPlace @CharcoalEpitaph @nejsnave Nothing can possibly be as terrible as explornet . If I were in the country then I'd be very suspect of any internet provider. Xplornet tried to pull the wool over me some years again until I threatened legal action as well as chucking the dish through there head office

Cowgirl Quinn 🇨🇦 (@GoldenDragonXll) reported@xplore_ca Wifi is still down in PEI...
-
SirFrancis Bacon (@SirFrancisBac20) reported@xplore_ca Pull it down
-
Tibalt Ablaze. (@Ansovald) reported@xplore_ca Found the issue, you guys did some tower work in my area during the day but still had no internet when I got home late Friday, the issue was the cable that ran from dish on my roof to my power box ( p.o.e box) came unplugged.
-
MeanLadyOnTheSwing♀️ (@MichelleWTHell) reported@xplore_ca My internet has become incredibly slow and unreliable since Explore had bought out CCI here in rural Alberta. My neighbours too have noticed it. Instead of buying trucks, relocate that money towards improving your towers!
-
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
-
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.
-
Tybernicus (@Tybernicus17) reported@mario4thenorth Same thing as with EORN...Eastern Ontario Regional Network, tasked with getting broadband to rural eastern Ontario. 20+ years and a house bought in '98 can only access Starlink which is not part of EORN. Xplornet satellite latency and cost not competitive. Cell service spotty. When house was purchased Bell Canada promised DSL in 6 months. LOL. First of all too far from local switching central office for DSL.

XisAFascistHellhole **** LIBERAL CORRUPTION (@GROWTOBACCOCA) reported@bobs_626 @FringedCanuck @Starlink First outage in 3 years......I guess I shouldn't *****. I used to be with Xplornet. On the phone twice a week with those Bastards.
-
MeanLadyOnTheSwing♀️ (@MichelleWTHell) reported@xplore_ca WTF??? Is this why there's an increase on my bill? So you guys can drive brand new trucks?
-
Dean H. (@loopholefarms) reported@wheatiepete @Andrew_Dalgarno You know you are a garbage company when you have to rebrand. #xplornet
-
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.
-
🇺🇦 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!
-
High Caliber (@RealHICALIBER) reported@PersonNotGroup @TheQuartering We got the same service Jeremy has (starlink) or we couldn't have done what he did. We found 52 acres WAAAAY up in the rockies, no cell coverage at all, but we needed internet of course. Xplornet was the only previous option, and not at all reliable.
-
Ginny girl ☯️ (@MJcalifornia3) reported@xplore_ca no internet service AGAIN!!! #xplore_casucks #terribleservice #wasteofmoney
-
Acura (@TheSmitefulOne) reported@b3almason @RachelNotley I have Xplornet. My neighbors have Starlink. We checked together. Both suck, however, many in the area have said their Xplornet signal became better when some users switched to Starlink. They are roughly the same, but nowhere near as good as fibre optic in the cities.
-
Bennett Hunter (I am Canadian Libertarian) (@Can_Libertarian) reported@macjbby @nationalpost I live stream in full HD with no problem. Typical speeds are around 200 - 300 Mbps down/15-25 Mbps up. I use to be stuck with Xplornet that advertised 10/1 as the best speeds for my area, yet rarely ever got more than 3 - 4 down/1 up. Starlink is on a completely different level,…
-
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.
-
Lucian (@LucianFilm) reported@xplore_ca We have the internet down for the past few hours in PEI, any updates regarding that?
-
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.
-
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.
-
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!
-
Ashley-Rose C (@TrashleyMess) reported@xplore_ca Your internet is down in Manitoba and no one's available to call on Christmas, can you guys do something about this?
-
Gerard Cooke (@GerardCooke8) reported@xplore_ca I have called tech support 50 times and they can’t fix the issue. It’s too many customers on the Pugwash Nova Scotia tower. You can’t fix my problem till you fix the tower. Most of the people in my area are switching over to star link. I will too this spring.
-
NovaScotia Treasures (@NSTreasures) reported@TimHoustonNS Insane that an island is getting high speed Internet before us, off a secondary highway, in Colchester. They completely botched it here and thought xplornet was worth a damn.
-
NotYetDone (@NotYetDone1) reported@theJagmeetSingh Xplornet.... Home of 480p on 1-2 devices, plus that 700+Ping. It's sad to see that my only option was (the Above) for a couple of years. We now got Access Internet in our town (which i still can't Access, due to Geo issues) it's getting better. Bless Starlink for Accessibility
-
BJMMURPHY 🇨🇦 (@BJMMURPHY1) reportedRural internet provider in Northumberland county @PLawrenceMP is dreadful. Xplornet is our only option. Typical upload speed is .2. Yes point 2. For anyone working from home that’s useless. When will we have access to good reliable reasonably priced high speed internet service?
-
EmceeLagiacrus (@RTFreshNFruity) reportedIf you live in New Brunswick, Canada and you value your time, money and/or sanity, do NOT buy @xplore_ca internet. Never in my life have I seen an ISP that struggles so hard to make internet happen.
