Called in to shaw, asked for Loyalty and got $15 off/mo for 1 year (just because - no strings attached) plus the shaw 150 $79 /24 months deal. Decent enough. Thanks to Speedy1 for advice.TDA wrote: ↑ So I have been living in the USA and kind out of date. My mom has been complaining about her emails with attachments (photos, etc) not working, and I figured out why- her upload is 150kBps!!, which effectively gives the impression of not working after waiting >10 mins for an email to go out.
I'd like to upgrade her upstream internet and save her some money too. I think she's paying way too much money for that upstream speed (I almost gagged when I saw her bill). She is a current shaw customer. Downstream bandwidth not too important but able to stream internet TV at SD quality, and make dropbox, email and etc work properly is essential. Her downstream is approx 150-250gb per month.
Currently have:
- Home Phone Line (a must, old school and etc)
- Internet
- TV (Can do without, only reason she has it now is its only $5 more expensive in bundle, according to the CSRs)
Suggestions on options/deals? Thanks! Okay with jumping ship to any provider that decently services her house. Or sticking with shaw. Whatever works.

I'm in NW Calgary, been using shaw for almost a year now. Took the 1yr $50, 2nd yr $80 150 plan. I've had no issues with the service what so ever. Previously I had used teksavvy and nucleus. No issues with Nucleus but tek-savvy is garbage in my neighborhood. I was paying for 50down and typically never got above 22 down, plus tons of downtime and latency issues.

I am in the same boat. Got upset with Telus. Changed to Nucleus 2 years. Now looking at the Shaw offering and would like to jump ship. The problem with Shaw is that it does not have an unlimited usage plan. 1TB per month will work, anything less is pushing it. Only TekSavvy has a 60M plan with unlimited bandwidth. This is the company I think I will be switching to after the 2 years. I am surprised to hear teksavvy sucks in NW. Do they use the same Shaw backbone? Is Shaw doing something dodgy to non-Shaw customers on Shaw's backbone?chaosthebomb wrote: ↑ I'm in NW Calgary, been using shaw for almost a year now. Took the 1yr $50, 2nd yr $80 150 plan.

I was worried about switching back to a limited amount but as I live alone I rarely go past half of that 1TB/mo.
I'm okay paying $80/mo for the 2nd year because that's what I was paying at nucleus prior to swithcing to shaw for much slower speeds. I definitely will not keep it once it goes back to full price unless they can offer me a new deal or I can jump on this rate!

Teksavvy does use shaw as a backbone, but I don't think the problem was with Shaw as nucleus worked fine and also uses shaw lines. From the troubleshooting they had me do, it seemed like all of my connection issues were a result of something with a teksavvy node (I honestly don't know internet infrastructure so don't hate on me plz). I remember ping plotting and I kept having horrible latency issues to a teksavvy connection which is where they believed the issue was arising from. They said they were working on a fix, but I reported that problem numerous times and the first few they just said "restart your router". It wasn't until I sat with a higher up technician and did more testing on my end till we determined it wasn't my equipment causing the issue.sharkcalgary wrote: ↑ I am in the same boat.
