Xplore Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Heather, Heath,Dafink,Mom (@HeatherTownFink) reported@xplore_ca is there an outage in Central Alberta?
-
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.
-
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.
-
Mike Gazzola (@The_RealestReal) reported@xplore_ca Not enough towers, prices that are legitimately out of this world for the service offered. There’s no other companies out here though so you have no other option. They know this and take advantage which is why there’s a class action against them right now
-
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.
-
Darren (@xraydares) reported@pcroft @xplore_ca That sucks
-
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.
-
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.
-
JJ Temple (@pcman87654) reported@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.
-
Ally Bryant (@Eh_Bee_Sea) reported@xplore_ca Over $100/month for service... this is unacceptable. I know that as soon as an experienced tech gets here, he'll be able to fix it without an issue and he'll shake his head when I tell him about what the last guy said. Same thing happened last time. Surely you can do better.
-
Farming in Ontario (Leasa Janssen) (@RuralOntWoman) reported@Bell (mobility) reduced our rural service, @rogers is about to run a cable down our road. Guess where I'm going when they get done. TV, phones and internet. Our @xplore_ca reduces to dialup speed in the evenings and on weekends. ROGERS HERE WE COME, CAN'T HAPPEN SOON ENOUGH.
-
Dean H. (@loopholefarms) reported@wheatiepete @Andrew_Dalgarno You know you are a garbage company when you have to rebrand. #xplornet
-
Moe G (@moegaultier) reported@xplore_ca Yeah right, and using rabbit ears and pots and pan to transmit from customer to customer…
-
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.
-
Jo Watier (@kowalat) reported@MtlYlavoie @simard_colette He was the only way we could get decent, fast, reliable Internet after Xplornet. With Xplornet it took between 2-3 minutes just to go from one email to the next. Speed was crap but with Starlink lightning fast. We only got rid in September because Bell Fibe arrived,
-
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.
-
Devin Rabey (@Devin_Rabey) reported@moegaultier @xplore_ca To transmit from customer to customer......LOL....you must be unaware of how Sattelite Internet operates.
-
Andrea Galante (@AndreaGal67) reported@altimaguy11 The issue is that the Xplornet didn't have the speed or download capability. We have no cell signal where I live so EVERYTHING runs through Starlink...all cell phones (talk and text), internet, VOIP phone, streaming and computers. Seamlessly.
-
Ginny girl ☯️ (@MJcalifornia3) reported@xplore_ca once again, my internet is down… has been all weekend. Once again, I’m on hold for over an hour AND I’m doing the work for them. Do I get the wages for doing the techs work? #xplore_ca sucks😑
-
CJH (@CJH39493411) reported@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?
-
Cowgirl Quinn 🇨🇦 (@GoldenDragonXll) reported@xplore_ca Wifi is still down in PEI...
-
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
-
Garth Twitchell (@GarthTwitchell) reportedTonight reminds me of how poor our internet is in northern @TownOfMiltonON with no prospect of it getting better anytime soon. Extremely frustrating. @Colin1Best @vankayak Wireless internet from Xplornet is hopeless. Someone brings me good internet, I’ll buy it.
-
Mason (@MasonXavCam) reportedPSA: @xplore_ca is garbage.
-
Dan Wiebe (@DanWiebeFree) reported@xplore_ca Don’t believe a word of Xplorenet . I know this from personal experience and my friends and acquaintances share my experience. The speeds and data are far lower than they “sell” their service is crap. Starlink work’s terrific.
-
Josh Ciemitis (@JoshCiemitis) reported@xplore_ca Internet has been down in many areas for about 21 hours, checked with a couple websites that also confirmed it. I reset the router & modem multiple times, bypassed the router & hooked the modem directly to a laptop and still nothing. Any eta on when it will work again?
-
Pat Compliance (@faey06) reported@GLGuevarra @xplore_ca Lucky you, it went down last night and is still off now - almost 24 hours
-
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.
-
Robert Way (@LabradorIce) reported@ClimateSadie Lots of issues with XplorNet from users. We have had it before and the cost versus speed and limitations on data usage were real tough. Most people that I know who had XplorNet in communities didn't keep it.
-
CDN_NRG (@CDN_NRG) reported@xplore_ca Terrible.
