Are you even being offered 50 FTTN from Ebox? The talk has been since the takeover that Ebox and Start.ca nuked all DSL offerings in qualifying areas, only selling Cable now. No idea why.
Ditto, no DSL in Kitchener (checked my address and several others).
Only rCable. Im currently on a 50/10 VDSL service with Start.
Not a peep from Start in this thread. Very strange.
I have a very bad feeling about this....
Edit: Just confirmed with Start reps.
Start has stopped selling DSL.
Current accounts grandfathered for the time being.
This is permanent.
Like I said, I have a very bad feeling about this...

Bell Canada buys its rival Ebox Internet services
"As part of this acquisition, Bell participated in a formal sale process, initiated by the EBOX founders. After 25 years leading EBOX, M. Jean-Philippe Béïque and M. Dominic Letourneau have decided that the time is right to step away from the business to pursue other challenges. EBOX will continue to operate on a standalone basis based in Longueuil and existing operations will continue under the leadership of Isis Thiago De Souza, VP and General Manager, EBOX."

I just ordered 50 FTTN from Ebox on a 12 month promo. Hopefully it doesn't get cancelled.

I checked with ebox and they confirmed it is available in my area (Ottawa). Funny thing is that on my PC it says it's not available but it is available when using my cell phone.

I received a Smart/RG SR516AC modem/router. Hopefully it works well.

the owner of start posted over on dslr just a few days ago about it saying they were only getting a handful of dsl orders each year that 99% of orders coming in were for cable connections. he did say that any one currently on dsl can stay on dsl as long as they want and that any customer who is on cable and has issues that can't easily be fixed can still be moved to dsl if they wish orders for dsl can still be manually placed by c/s on a case by cases bases.heyyahblah wrote: ↑ Are you even being offered 50 FTTN from Ebox?

Ebox and Start.ca selling out to Bell? Competition is dead.

Start.ca is still independent.
EBOX was for sale after their founders decided to step away to pursue other challenges
