The video was generic and was about cable companies period whether in the US or not.

Anyone that isn't a complete idiot knows about the games these companies play and how poorly consumers are treated, but it is relatively easy for them to get away with it when there is little to no competition. resa1983

I doubt Teksavvy complained. I'd believe it more if it were Bell, Shaw, and/or Rogers. They seem to have a very bad reputation for whining when someone bashes them.

Mississauga, ON dra6o0n Member Re: You've got to be kidding... Ontario is one of the major provinces compared to other provinces, corporations functions larger in said places.



Though smaller cable companies in other provinces and rural areas might also be freaked out by this because they rely on misinformation to get cash from rural folks.



Plus in the Canadian ISP it's mostly a duopoly between Bell and Rogers, Bell owns the phone lines, Rogers with the cables.

@mtsallstream.net polywogger Anon Re: You've got to be kidding... Bell was banned by MTS for 10 years. just recently that contract has run out so bell is back in business in Manitoba. MTS is making it very difficult for Bell to bounce off there cell towers lol. my family changed there cell phones over to Bell.. BIG MISTAKE! lol dropped call after dropped call, right in the city, no service on the outskirts or country side at all. I am going to stick with MTS until I can see something better come along. Rogers and Telus also crap non-existent service on the outskirts of the city or out of town. so for you to say that Bell and Rogers are the two main big honchos. they sure don't show it! with there crap service.
