I have selected Shaw for my telecom provider.
Gig internet, total TV, Disney Plus, all equipment and install free, and $250 one time bill credit. $139/mo.
My target with telus was the 150 Fibre internet with 4+1 TV package for under $110, closest they could get was the advertised special with Fibre 300 and 4+1 TV for $138. They did have some options which included home security features which they guy insisted would lower my bill, but he was not easy to understand, or helpful, and I don't want those, so I did not select any of them.
I will enjoy having shaw wifi at the mall, and it's possible I will end up with Shaw mobile for some of the 4 cellphones in the household, although it may not beat my current public mobile plans. we will see.
VoLTE and Wifi Calling alone is worthwhile to jump ship.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
But who know how long that ship will stay afloat.

I was a cunty bitch to the "real" Telus retentions person who phoned me today to discuss the service cancellation request that shaw sent in after hooking me up yesterday. While they did offer me substantially better deals than the first "loyalty" agent offered me, I'm pissed off now, and I will (probably) not be accepting their offer. Even though the offer today was below my previously mentioned "target" price, and lower than what I signed up for with shaw. Further proof that loyalty is not rewarded, and you should be cancelling services every few years.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
they did
got Telus Fiber installed last night, noticed my latency to work went down from ~15ms down to ~4ms, happy with that.
having issues with Optik TV though as they don't like being inside a NATted network and if I enable IP passthrough then they are no good either.
hope Shaw offers me a good deal for a basic internet and Shaw Bluecurve tv then I might keep both services.
$90 for same service I have now - Fiber 500. Paying $80 right now.
Cancel. Like really cancel.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Begin trying to get to higher level of retention all morning … might have to actually cancel … one of those Telus door to door guys was at my house last week … should have heard him out …
Yes, cancel for real. A different person will call YOU MANY DAYS LATER.

A lot of these places even if you get retention will tell you they can't do anything and you will run yourself in circles.
There no reason to attempt to stay with a provider. New customers usually treated better.

Shit, there's only 49 users here, I doubt we'll even break 100
Some of us work from home and can't afford downtime. Switching providers means you have to wait for cancels and installs and I've been around long enough to know those never go as planned. Also switching doesn't mean things will be better. I'm on the Shaw 1Gb plan and to switch to something like Telus could mean worse.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

So sometimes.. its just easier to stay and deal with it because in the end we all get screwed one way or another.
I just renewed last month, $125 for Ignite Total TV + 500Mb
They offered 1gig for only $9 more, but I honestly don't need it. I was never disappointed even with 300Mb I had before that.
