I'm in your area. Yes it was down. A simple call to shaw and you could've found it too lol. So far broadband 50 has only gone down 2x for me so I'm still satisfied.

i wonder if i can get compensated for the duration of no connectivity. i use it for work and could not work. bill credit for wage x duration seems fair to me.

was down from 930-1030 around surrey (guilford)

Mine did this yesterday too. Port coquitlam area.

Called in, they told me they didnt see a problem.

Today I tried calling in, and I got a busy signal on the customer service line, WTF?

Mine came back up at about 11:30.

Highly doubt it. There's no SLA's for residential internet. As well a 1 hour downtime for home internet is not gonna net you any credits. Maybe if you really complain hard possibly.

Just checked my connection at home. Still up after the last downtime tuesday night.

I had this exact same argument with them a little under a year ago. I explained that they were charging me for a service they wernt actually prviding, and on top of that costing me money by being down.

Eventually they said I would see a credit on my bill. I hate to admit it, but I totally forgot to check If I actually did get it. Im sure it would have only amounted to a few bucks. Im betting the credit was never applied.

After that same discussion, I did cancel all my other services with them though. The customer service is so bad I just cant justify sepending any more money with them then I have to.

I thought it was just me and my lame connection. Mine has been going on and off in the past few days. This has never happened to me before. I'm experiencing sudden disconnects and spikes (for like 10 second duration).

Anyone else still having issues?

My speed is still way down, and the connections drops intermittently.
Shaw is telling me the problem must be on my end as they can’t see any problems. I have tried a new router, still happening.

Shaw is sending someone out on Tuesday, but I still think the problem is on their end.
