    I recently visited the Bell store at 2002 Park Royal S, Level 1-932, West Vancouver, BC with my sister to set up a new phone plan. Unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. The representative repeatedly entered the wrong credit card information, which caused our bank to automatically flag and block the card due to multiple failed attempts. When we contacted the bank’s security department, they confirmed the issue was caused by the Bell store’s repeated incorrect entries. When we called the store to clarify, the employee refused to take responsibility and instead blamed the bank. This was an unnecessary hassle and a poor customer service experience. I would recommend being cautious when visiting this location.

    I had set up Bell for a New Service Package at a new home. The day of Set up, I was informed by their Technician, they would have to dig up my neighbour's driveway to run a line to my new residence. Naturally, my neighbour wanted nothing to do with that plan. I had already supplied them with $400 deposit to do the set up and immediately requested a refund when it was cancelled. That was September 26th. It's now October 27th and after several phone calls and emails, I have been informed that my refund cheque will be posted and sent Nov 30...and if I have not received it by December 30th, to contact them. I was previously told it had been processed October 6th - TWICE - by 2 different people. They took the money directly from my Bank Account. Surely they can refund it. This is my 1st Post and I will not sit back and let them get away with this. I am a Senior and in poor health. $400 is A LOT for me.

    If I could go below zero I would but this is the worst experience so far. I’ve heard people always talking about Rogers being scams but they have not tried Bell yet. I rather pay 80 a month to Rogers than pay bill 40 a month. Scammers told me that the first payment is gonna be more expensive because of the activation fee and now after 8 months into my contract I get charged with 2k saying it’s the activation fee which I had already paid.

    I recently called Bell to resolve an issue I had with my usage. The person assisting me asked if I had Bell Internet and Bell TV, I said I have another provider and was not interested. He then asked me to verify my account once again by asking for my birthdate, then he asked for my Drivers licence (I knew something was not right). He then said he would send me details of a tv and internet service to review with my spouse. The next day I received an Order confirmation and installation date for an Order that I DID NOT request. COMPLETELY DISGUSTING ON BELL. All this guy wanted was a sale, I was so pissed to find out that he had done this without my permission. I was able to call back and cancel this order, but this is not right. Beware of their sales tactics when calling for customer service. Bell needs to know about this. And judging from the reviews They do know and choose to do nothing. Shame!

    Bought an iPhone from a Bell dealer store in Leduc Alberta, tried to take it back because security issues from day 1 and tried to return it under the 14 days and they claimed there was a scratch on glass (no scratch), apple won’t even service phone under fix problem under icare plus warranty. Bell rep didn’t even want to tell me my sim number or explain properly how to pay the full amount of what I owe to get out of contact. Horrible companies from dealer store to Bell contact centre to Apple support. Bell rep told me to send phone back and pay $1000.00+.. to get out of contract. Apple told me they couldn’t find email I set up for iCloud.com, meanwhile I used the email to check in for tech Apple support and later iCloud couldn’t find email saying phone number was not supported or verified.

    I’m also seeing long distance calls on my account usage which I never called. It’s suppose to be brand new iPhone and I was told from top Apple support rep that I can erase and clean my new iPhone myself. Bell says I need to deal with dealer store and won’t help after telling them phone came with bug issues and most likely isn’t a brand new phone. Went in to another Bell store and he said only deal and buy from the corporate stores not from dealers. Thought I’d share my experience to save someone else the headache of signing up with a bad company and here is a link to restore brand new iPhone yourself **.

    Took 2 hours to cancel home phone and cable service which were no longer needed. Had to go as far as to say that my grandfather passed away and he was the last person to use the landline for them to cancel. Even after cancelling they made us go through Canada Post during a strike to return cable devices. Terrible experience.

    I am writing to express my disappointment regarding the lack of clarity about the iPhone I received from your company. When I got the device, I was never informed that it was provided under a lease agreement. For the past two years, I believed that the iPhone was my own device. It was only recently that I was told I had to return the phone, which came as a complete surprise and caused me inconvenience. Had I been informed clearly at the time of receiving the device, I would have managed my expectations and planned accordingly. I kindly request that you review this situation and provide an explanation as to why the lease terms were not communicated clearly. I would also appreciate it if you could suggest any possible resolution for the misunderstanding. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.

    Horrible customer service. We tried to cancel my mom's mobility account because she doesn't know how to use any cellphone and we went for a residential line instead. Bell doesn't offer residential services in her area. So we had to go with Videotron. But cancelling her services is impossible unless we send a medical document that says she's Alzheimers. Wait, what??! There's no way we're going to send anything medical for a friggin' cellphone service! The guy on the phone, Mohammed, was incredibly rude and said he was about to end the call. Even though we had my mom's account number, cellphone number, NIP, street address and so on. If I could give minus 300 stars I would!

    Less than a month ago, we spoke with one of your representatives about possibly switching to a package that included Internet, home phone, and cell phones. At that time, we agreed to the Internet and home phone, but I made it clear that I did not want to switch our cell phones unless we could keep our existing phone numbers. A few days later, we unexpectedly received SIM cards in the mail for the cell phones. We never activated them, never used them, and never agreed to proceed with that portion of the package. We specifically told the representative that we were still undecided about the cell phones and wanted to keep things as they were.

    Despite this, I have now received a bill $101.56 for mobile service that was never activated or used. On top of that, it appears that temporary phone numbers were created for us — something we never requested or agreed to. I do not believe it is fair or reasonable to charge us for a service that we neither activated nor used. We only intended to switch our Internet and home phone service, not our cell phones.

    Worst customer experience ever. Basically, Bell can do anything the company wants and if you want its service you will do whatever Bell wants, or you can go somewhere else, and that is what I was told in different words. What kind of a company does and says that to its lifelong customers? Bell, that’s who. Doesn’t matter what mistakes Bell makes, or what lies the company tells you, you have two choices comply, or leave. This is what Canada has come to. We have no competition and Companies can do whatever they want and you have to bend over and say thank you, or you will get nothing.

    Bell Cancelled all of my services for no reason, not even one that the company could invent, just unknown, even my internet, which is free through my condo and has nothing to do with me except that I use it. Closed my account, first denied closing it, then a few agents agreed that it was closed, but then the case manager told me my account wasn’t cancelled, or closed even after I said it was and have 4 employee id’s and he could check the previous calls. 4 hours of lies and more lies to get to the top of the customer service chain for them to basically say well they are trying to fix it. How you say, by me having to provide my driver’s license, have them run a credit check and have me wait for a technician to reinstall my cable boxes and phone service, so basically start fresh as a new customer, right from the beginning, as if I have not been a customer for 30+ years. That’s a solution?

    Explanation as to why, or how, or who, cancelled my services, none, except for it is complicated and very tricky. Bell knows we cannot go anywhere else, well except to Rogers, which I had done, but unfortunately my newly built condo had a prearranged deal with Bell, so I got sucked back in. I know this review is useless, as it will fall on deaf ears, but I had to write it anyway. My next letter is to the CRTC, but let’s see what they can do, if anything, I mean Bell is going to fix everything, no matter how much time and inconvenience it may cause me.

    Bell Canada has been getting away with dishonest billing practices for years. They sold me internet services and in one year increased my bills four times. Despite my regular payments done automatically through the bank, always in an amount slightly above the actual bill, they have been charging me "balances owing" every month, and interest on top of interest. As soon as I find out, I make an extra payment, also slightly above the said balance they claim is owed. Yet, I keep getting high bills alleging I have not paid the balances. I have had enough. Time to bring them to Court and find a new provider. I am posting here what I have been charged for the past 18 month for internet only. I keep paying more and more.

    Absolutely the worst customer service experience I’ve ever had. I am a new customer who recently made the mistake of switching from Rogers to Bell — and I deeply regret it. I’ve wasted over 14 hours on the phone with 10 different representatives, and my issue is STILL not resolved. Each time, I’m forced to repeat the same story over and over, only to be put on hold, transferred, or promised call-backs that never happen.

    Out of desperation, I even went physically to one of their stores — only to be met by a dealer who was rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. Instead of trying to resolve my issue, he lashed out and told me this is the “problem” with purchasing services online. That level of arrogance and lack of accountability is shocking. This has been a complete nightmare. I left Rogers thinking Bell would be better, but it has turned out to be a terrible decision. If this is how Bell treats new customers, I can’t imagine what the future holds. Save yourself the frustration and don’t make the same mistake I did! Very disappointed!

    Bell has so far wasted about 12 hours of my time just this week and lost me a day's wages. I spoke with 5 different unhelpful people as I attempted to get them to honour their installation appointment that they made with me. So I closed my account. In closing the account I also spent over an hour on the phone (after driving to a store to return equipment) trying to close the account. 4 different people asked me multiple questions as to why I was leaving. After the questions they tell me they can't close the account but they will connect me to the person who can. Same story each time. I kept telling them that it was because they waste my time. No one took the hint and continued to waste my time. I wish there was a way to hold them accountable for the contemptuous way that they treat their paying customers. Maybe a consumer boycott?

    I had been a Bell customer for 2 years. I wanted a better deal to get a phone, they wouldn’t offer a good one so I went to another provider that had a better deal. No harm, no foul right? Bell called me 3 times right after I switched, I told them I would only switch if they gave me the specific phone I wanted with a plan. The agent assured me this would be done without issue. Waited 2 days, got the call from product specialist and was told the phone isn’t available to be shipped even though I was told it would be. After 45 minutes of deliberation and waiting on hold, I was told I could pick up the phone I wanted but it was only available at a store an hour away from my house. I thought “while not ideal, at least I’m getting the phone and price I wanted!”

    The product specialist gave me the order number, gave me the store phone number, and told me I could book an appointment to pick up the phone the next day at 11 AM. I have work, like most people, so I asked him if I could make an appointment any other day. He said no, but assured me that I could go and pick it up as it is reserved for me. I got off the phone and called the store. I asked the person on the phone if they had the phone I ordered in stock, the man said “yes, but it’s not for you”. I said, “but I have an order number” and without even letting me tell him the order number, he assured me the phone was already reserved for someone else. At this point I was livid, I had been screwed out of a better deal elsewhere and made a false promise that I would get a deal which was a complete lie.

    I called bell back and asked them if they could do ANYTHING to help me and the girl on the phone said she had called other stores and said the phone I wanted wasn’t available. She said even warehouses did not offer shipping this phone. Keep in mind I was initially told that the phone would be shipped to me by the first agent who offered me the deal. I told her it’s okay and asked her to please put on my profile that I don’t want to be contacted again.

    2 hours later, I got a call from the product specialist who apologized for the inconvenience, he affirmed that there’s nothing he could do as the phone I wanted was not available for shipping and not in stock at any store, and saying some stores cancel orders so they can sell the phones in store and make commission off of it. He then said the only iPhone 16 256 gb phone I could get was the pro max, which was way more expensive than the iPhone 16 I wanted. I told him that it was not the phone I wanted, and that I do not want to be conctacted again and that I will be switching providers. TLDR; Bell gave me a fake offer to screw me out of a better deal with their competitor, and the Bell customer support team is operating on a completely different system than the Bell stores itself (which only screws the customer). DO NOT TRUST BELL.

After following the troubleshooting steps provided by your virtual tool, I had to contact your technical support service multiple times, as the issue persisted. In total, I spoke with too many different representatives over a period of three days. Each time, I was assured that the problem would be resolved.

    During these calls, I was asked to replace the receiver, the modem, and a cable. Despite these efforts, the problem remains unresolved. My last interaction with one of your technicians was particularly frustrating. He introduced himself as a “senior” technician, speaking in a condescending tone, and assured me that a procedure he performed would resolve the issue within 48 hours. However, more than 48 hours later, the problem was still not fixed. I find it unacceptable to have invested so much time and effort without any concrete solution being provided.

Unfortunately, your call center has not provided the necessary support to resolve this issue. With this letter, I express my strong dissatisfaction and protest regarding the unacceptable treatment I have received from your company, and I demand the immediate rectification of the damage I have suffered. • On July 6, I noticed an unauthorized change to my plan, carried out without my consent, which resulted in an increase in the monthly charge. I neither signed nor approved any such modification. • Upon contacting your call center, I was informed that this might be a fraud incident.

    Instead of resolving the matter, however, my phone lines were blocked, and my communication with your company became extremely difficult. • From July 6 to August 18, I repeatedly contacted your representatives. Each time, I was assured that: 1. The overcharge of $925 would not be applied to my account. 2. My plan would be restored to its original terms. • Despite these assurances, on August 18 your company proceeded with charging the $925, while my plan remains altered. Throughout these two months, despite my numerous calls, no responsible person has ever contacted me, contrary to the repeated promises that this would happen within 48 hours. Instead, I wasted countless hours explaining the issue again and again to different representatives, without any resolution.

    Based on the above, I hereby demand: 1. The immediate refund of the $925, which was charged to me illegally and abusively and most importantly without pre authorized permission. 2.

A written and official response from a senior company representative, providing a clear timeline and corrective actions. Should immediate compliance not occur, I reserve the right to escalate this matter to the Consumer Commission and to pursue legal action for the full restitution of both the financial and moral damages I have incurred. It has already been two months without any meaningful response from your side.

    This behavior is unprofessional and offensive towards a customer who has consistently fulfilled their financial obligations. My case number that your company gave me at 6th July is ** and then at16th August is ** but none of them has all the informations written by your representatives and every time I had to repeat myself without any solution.

    I've been with Bell since 2000 and my family many more years previous. This fact means nothing to Bell when it comes to doing right for loyal customers. When competitors are able to provide more for less, they refuse to match pricing and just offer excuses...wanting to even add more services in order to provide "bundled" pricing to remain competitive. My misguided notion of Bell treating loyal customers fairly cost me thousands of dollars over time and I finally came to my senses and switched over my home internet service to another provider as soon as their comparable service became available in my area.

    Bell offered me one set of terms but later increased my bill without my knowledge, claiming they could not contact me. They now say they will give me the same price only if I agree to a new 24-month contract. This appears to be a tactic to lock me in so that I cannot take advantage of a better Black Friday deal. I find this to be poor service and unethical business conduct, and I will not be using Bell again.

    The worst company ever. I should have stayed at Rogers and paid an additional $100 a month. The agents have NO training. I called to switch from Rogers to Bell (Mobile Phone Service) and had no service on my phone that day, I had to go into a Bell store the next day to get service which took the rep less than 30 seconds to set up. If the agent on the phone would have advised me the steps, I could have did it myself. Wondering how I was able to call them to tell me to go to Bell to get service, when I had no service on my phone? I had to FaceTime my sister to have my mother call them and take up 2 hours of my time. The agent said they would waive the $75 service fee and when I called to get it removed from my bill they said “the system won’t let me so you have to pay the fee”. Not worth the headache at all. Waste of time, money and left with constant headaches.

    I recently had a very pleasant young man visit my house to market Bell for fiber optics internet, basic cable and cell phones. The price in total was $100 per month less than my current suppliers so I went ahead on a 2 year deal. It also included a $150 visa credit. I'm not hard up for money but my current providers internet was slower than promised and a few of my neighbors were very happy with Bell services but definately not their fees!!!.

    Bell showed up, cut my current providers fiber cable without permission and installed their modem. The strength was the same until I plugged into my router then it improved, so far so good. Next he set up the wifi box on our main TV but could not get the app to work so he gave up and left. I worked on getting the app for a week and could not find it anywhere even with Bells help plus the little box started to malfunction. My original contact turned put to be a marketing company wearing a Bell shirt. When I got a hold of him he said he'd send a technician and figure out the app for the other TV's. No show and no help until I got to the retention department...too late!

    My phones are for business and I didn't even take a chance on that given the mess I had with the TV's. After canceling 16 days later ai got a bill for over $675.00 for my troubles plus a cut fiber cable. The bill was reduced to $282.00 dollars that I was forced to pay or have Bell chase me for the rest of my life. I swore off Bell 30 plus years ago and they screwed me again, I'm so stupid!!! My current internet/TV provider waived the $250 for reconnection and help improve my service, thanks Exculink and thanks for the lesson Bell! Once again you have proven the money is more important than the service. In 30 years nothing has changed, well done for sticking to your principles!

    If you have gotten a promotion from Bell within the last year, remember to check your bill because my bill has gone up $18 with a promotion that started at $121 has immaculately changed to $146 within only last few months. I was shocked to hear between May and July that there was a $6 charge every month of year 2025. When I called in, I wasn’t able to access my login to be Canada. I wasn’t able to use my original username or my password and they also changed my four-digit number. When I called I spoke with a man named David. His badge number is **. I told him I had a learning disability and I needed extra help. He then asked me what my disability was and insisted that I needed papers to continue. Unfortunately, I don’t need to tell anybody my disability and I think it’s completely ignorant and rude about Canada’s employees to ask these questions.

    I was finally transferred to another document that couldn’t answer why there was an $18 increase, how I wasn’t notified with a paper in the mail or even access to my online account. He had no answers. I never found out why there was an $18 increase without my knowledge, but I will keep an eye on my bills and find out how much more my promotional that was advertised for $121 has now changed to a whopping $146 without my knowledge. Please check your bills, especially if they can is going into your account. God knows how much they actually take It. Beware Bell Canada has disability discrimination and every three months you have to change your login password. Otherwise you’re denied your bills.

I tried multiple things until I decided to reach out to bell. I was rudely told to just change my box thingy and got hung up at. I went to my local Bell store and I was told they could not do anything about it. I then drove 1 HOUR to the other centre and got new internet. Yet again, it was not working. I called bell and they told me it was an issue in my neighborhood and it would be fixed by 10:30-11 pm.

    After that I relaxed and called my friend who by the way, lives beside me using data. She said her internet was working fine and she was using bell. I was furious. What made the whole situation even worse was that the internet was not even working at the time they told me it would. I was deeply disappointed and called bell again the next day. They told me the same thing for two more days until finally I gave up. It was a blessing in disguise that some Cogeco people came and helped me. But they were too expensive so I decided to wait a bit more for bell. Well, WORST DECISION OF MY LIFE!!! I had a big project due the next day and with my data almost out (because I had to use it most for my autistic son's iPad) my boss threatened to fire me because I was not done the project.

    PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM BELL. It is the worst company ever. I would give zero stars if I could. How can you keep on sending an invoice for 6 months (important to mention that the invoice was $3000) over and over again when I went to the store the next day after I bought them, and because I was not satisfied with the phones, I returned them (2 phones)? I have the proof ( returning contract ) with my signature and the seller's signature, the one who got back the phones. Even though I spent 6 full months making phone calls, sending in proof of returning the phones, the bill kept coming and adding interest. Bell kept telling me I had service from them when I had nothing, and I also had proof of this.

    Now, a year later, I decided to give it another try, having learned from my experience with Bell last year, I shared the story with them, and they assured me that there's a 15-day buyer's remorse or trial period. This time I was looking to buy a e-sim from bell to see if I have signal where I need. The next day I checked and because I checked and saw that there was no signal in the place I needed, I called to cancel. I was told (even though initially after 1.5 hours on the phone to activate this e sim I was told that it is ok, he understands that I had problems before but he promices that there is this trial period of 15 days and nothing bad will happen this time, I will not have to worry, I will have to pay anything if I close the service in 15 days and I close it in 1 single day).... that there is nothing like that, a trial period.

    However, short story - the next day AGAIN, as it happened to me 1 year before, I got a bill for $150. I had to stay another 1 hour on the phone to kindly ask to send me a zero balance invoice, as it was supposed to be. Also, 2 years ago I got internet from bell. They say it is 1.5 gb. NOT AT ALL. The speed is not as they promise whatsoever. It was about 200Mbps not 1.5 GB. And the installer told me - your computer is broken. How can you come into my house and offend me? For your knowledge, I am a human resources specialist, and my husband is an engineer; we have great computers. Not to mention that all these times they have done a hard credit score check.

He said he'd make a service ticket but got our internet up and running. Sunday night out again after a hard reset back on. Monday out again. Called back, made a service call for July 2. Internet came back on. Internet out again July 1. My app for the 2 between 8-12 around 1030 still no call. I contacted bell, I was told app was cancelled, had no idea why.

Instead of offering transparency or real support, they deflect, dodge questions, and treat the customer like a nuisance.

    It’s a toxic mix of arrogance and incompetence. They pressure you into agreeing to things you don’t fully understand, refuse to provide clear documentation, and escalate conversations the moment you push back.

They had no answer just kept apologizing to me which serves me nothing. I had given this phone number to recruiters for job searching.

It seems like this is the new customer policy that they don't allow customer even to complain anymore. They charge you extra for services you never request, whether it's mobile internet or home internet. A year and a half of paying an extra $10 for an additional service - and now for a few months now, $3-4 has been added to my home internet service. Several times I went to the Bell store in downtown and in face with their rude behavior. Even once I asked about the Bell gift card, they laugh at me and said, "Do you just remind it after one year," even though they initially told me when I bought the phone that it would come to my house by mail and I'd followed up several times.

    I had been with Bell for a number of years, then was on the fence about staying with them when I last moved after hearing many negative things about them. I decided to switch providers after they were going to connect me two weeks after I moved (even though I provided them plenty of notice) and they disconnected me two weeks before they were supposed to (even though my bill was all paid up etc).

I have paid 5 dollars more from July 2024 to date. Crazy!!! The excuse that they gave me is that the contract says that it could be a price increase during the term of 2 years.

It's been almost 5 years, and they claim that we still have the most updated equipment. I called to get a discount on the $56 monthly rate and the customer service rep gave me a promo for 6 months, supposedly. Bell still charged me the regular rate, and when I called to inquire and complain, they told me I misunderstood and I was told I wouldn't get a discount. They claimed someone called to tell me that. No email or call was received, and they refused to give me a refund or connect me with a supervisor. They also refused to give me the name of the employee who supposedly made a mistake by promising me a discount. What a shady company!

    Do not believe their lies about discounted rates. They will lie and promise customers things that aren't true, and then they will turn around and say it was the customers fault.

When I was in India, a sales promotion was going on with a travel agent, and they were providing the Bell SIM card to the students who were going to Canada and creating their accounts without their signature. Due to which I wasn't aware about that, as email wasn't working for the month, and I was having an Indian number, due to which I was unable to get the call from the Bell Services. And when I got the Canadian Number from the Rogers service they try to contact me, in the first 2-3 calls I was unable to verify my information because e-mail was not working and I didn't known about that their is an agreement but one of their Customer service on the call suggest me to visit the Bell store and when I visit their they said check email and let me know that the store associates cannot cancel the unnecessary charges like how bell provide the misinformation to the me and waste my time.

    After that, I spent 1-2 hours daily on the call to cancel the amount as I didn't use their services and didn't create any account with them. Still, they tried their best, but they said they understand the problem and tried to cancel the accounts and charges, but could not. I let them know that those charges don't belong to me, and please don't call me and put the note over it that customer was able to verify that and didn't use their services and you guys are unable to cancel the charges and I am unable to pay $182 for those services which didn't use.

I called back the next month and they claimed they had never made such a promise, and said they could do nothing to reduce the bill. I cancelled on the spot. The kicker is that I was apparently talking to the so-called loyalty department, who seemed to have no interest in retaining a long-time customer. And every single call I've made to them invariably pestered me about adding a mobile plan, ignoring that this customer didn't want to pay MORE, and was trying to pay LESS. There are other options out there. If Bell thinks it can continue operating like a monopoly without caring about customer retention, then they are wrong.

    When I first signed up, it never went through and I told him I never received an email and they didn’t know what I was talking about and there was a huge issue there where I had to speak to many different people about the offer I was given that they had never heard of before. They claimed their system was down, which is a huge red flag when you’re switching to that as your Internet provider. I’m just really frustrated with the incompetence overall.

    I wish I could rate them 0 stars even though 0 is higher than they deserve. We had our internet hooked up in early January. Where the first technician said they had been to our address but the property wasn't accessible, but of course he was at the wrong address because the people they hire do not know how to read. Sad to say, but it's apparent. The second technician pulled up in front of the house down the street, I yelled and waved to him but nothing. The third technician stated they were there 4 hours before the scheduled time, a lie, as I had taken a day off of work to be there. It took 4 technicians to find our address, even then we needed a 5th to actually have the internet, because on hour 14 with the internet it was cut, the procedure was done completely incorrect.

    Skip forward 2 months, so 4 days ago. We decided that we wanted to take advantage of a deal and 2 new phones, one with a number port the other to be a new line. We verified our identities and provided our credit card information as well as our Passport Number/Expiry. Thirteen hours later we received 3 separate emails.

    1. Mobility order cancelled
    2. Account Deletion email

    3. E-mail address change on the account

    Bell told us that they had NO IDEA as to why it was cancelled. Stating "It gets cancelled when there is fraudulent activity on our account". Funny, We have had their home internet service for 2 months at this point. We didn't change anything. The representative was eager to have us consider we were being frauded by someone. We re-verified our information a second time, only to have an email 13 hours later stating the order was cancelled. The second process took well over 2 hours to get a new order done. Sixteen hours later we received another e-mail stating the mobility cancellation for the second time. Now I'm just angry. They kept flagging our order as fraud, EVEN AFTER VERIFICATION.TWICE! We were asked to wait some time for the correction to be made....

    We verified a third time. Replaced the order, they had the fraud department, sales rep and a supervisor go over the new order. We were passed across two different representatives, one of which was on speaker phone. After hour 8 (day 3) of dealing with Bell, we were told a 4th time that our order was cancelled, minutes after everything had been verified across 3 departments, including the fraud department, sales and a supervisor.

    We are done. Bell not only has shown extreme incapability of running their own services but the incapabilities of training, customer service, employees product and procedure education and the most important disrespect for the client. After 4 orders, 4 verifications and 9 different people and 1 supervisor they want us to travel to the nearest store, 14 kilometers away. They wasted 8 hours of our time, interrupted our dinner to screw us the fourth time.

    So As of April 1st (no not an April Fools joke), we are disconnecting with Bell and moving over to their higher priced competitor Telus. The company that sells debt at the 5 year mark, buys it back after 5 years and sells it again after 5 more years. At least I know what they're like because of my friends experience.

    Doesn't lower price after the contract is done and the phone is paid automatically. No options between 0GB and 100GB data when I don't even use 10. Give the option to use your credit card for the 10$ rebate for automatic payment, bother you a week later to use debit card or you lose the rebate. Only call you with ''really good options'' after you've already cancelled. Been with them for a decade at least, never got any rebates for that.

    - Won't escalate your calls without validation then have to validate again.. After five back and forth or so you have given them the same information five times!
    - Said my billed was zeroed for the inconvenience. in fact all they did was push the billing date back so my bill appeared to be reduced but was not.

    I once had Bell internet, DSL, almost 20 years ago. It was the spotiest connection, I remember an uptime of around 50%, at best. Almost 20 years later, undecided to give them a try again. NEVER IN MY LIFE have I fought so hard to become a customer. From technical issues, to incorrect setups, failures on customer service, lack of knowledge, and more, it was a true test of patience. But eventually I got the mobile line up. Then they gave me an offer for home internet, what was I thinking..... Same BS over again, but now, I also need a tech, cause my fiber jack has pulled a Copperfield. Appointments are at the whim of them, with zero respect to a person taking time from work to be there. It took them 3 support people and 3 hours to even figure out how to add the offer they upsold me, to my account. We had to wipe and restart EVERYTHING.

    Eventually they tried to get me to stay, give them just one more day, just one more chance. I gave them my terms, 2 months free on both services.. nope, we can do $5 a month for a year.... After everything, all the crap, failures, and no shows, they wouldn't even offer a carrot worth nibbling.... Your service sucked And it ain't no lie. Baby bye, bye bell!

Red Deer is the third largest city in Alberta, and there are a number of neighbourhoods with poor to virtually no service. Yet I'm charged $87 per month.

    I signed a contract for a new phone with Bell not even a month ago, my first bill has just come in. I was just notified that my bill is now going up ten dollars a month due to me not wanting to setup autopay with my bank account. I have never before had my monthly bill cost go up while on a contract especially when it just started. I have had at least 2 previous phones with bell and my loyalty got me nothing except an increase as they say they can't do anything for me.

    I budgeted based on my contracted amount and now I will surpass my budget. I am very angry that this is happening because I will not setup debit autopay. I was not informed before I signed the contract of this occurring either. I feel swindled and now I'm stuck for 2 years as it is past the 14 day buyer's remorse deadline. My best recommendation is to not chose Bell. Ask thorough questions before signing anything and find a better company. I will not be choosing Bell in future for anything.

    I honestly can’t believe how awful my experience has been with Bell. I’ve been a loyal customer for years, but my recent issues have pushed me to the breaking point. For the past MONTH, I have been completely without Wi-Fi. That’s right—no internet at home for a full 30 days. This is completely unacceptable, especially when I’m paying for a service that I can’t even use. What makes this even worse is that Bell hasn’t shown any urgency in resolving the issue. Customer service has been incredibly unhelpful, giving me the runaround every time I call. I’ve been promised follow-ups that never happen and given no clear timeline for when the problem would be fixed.

    And here’s the kicker: after a month of no service, I asked for some kind of compensation. Maybe a little something to make up for the complete inconvenience and frustration. What did Bell offer? Nothing. No free data, no discounts, no extra gigs—nothing at all. It’s like they don’t care about their customers once they’ve got your money. I can’t recommend Bell to anyone at this point. The service is unreliable, and their customer support is a joke. Save yourself the headache and go with another provider that actually values its customers. Bell has lost me for good.

    I have been a Bell Canada customer since 2011 and for the most part, have always felt I was well-treated, even though the telecom prices in Canada are ridiculous. My opinion of Bell changed when my 2 year contract ended on January 3, 2025. I feel that the contract had been mis-represented to me and I was now facing a $650+ buy-out of my phone, which I was not expecting. My options were limited....turn the phone in for another and re-negotiate the contract or keep the phone and pay the fee. Even though I was happy with the phone I had and didn't want to replace it, as a retired person living on a pension, I couldn't afford the $650 for the buy-out.

    I contacted Bell by phone and asked for the loyalty department, who had helped me the last time. The woman was pleasant enough and seemed helpful; she explained my options and helped me find the best plan for myself, and I agreed to it. She sent a message to a Bell store near me to pick up my phone and transfer the data, and I received a confirmation email. She said that there were none in stock to ship to me, so I would have to go in person. Within a couple of hours, I received a call from that location to advise that they didn't have the phone I wanted and they were cancelling the order.

    After already having spent about 1 1/2 hours on the phone from my first call, I now had to call back. The representative was extremely unhelpful and at the end of another 2 hour call, they advised me that the phone I wanted wasn't available, as it has been discontinued (?) and they were having difficulty finding one. They told me that they manually called around to Bell locations near me, while I was on hold and that the College Park Bell location in Toronto had the phone I wanted, but because of their internal system limitations, they couldn't create a new order for me and advised that I go to the location, where they could pull up the original order to fulfill it which made no sense, since I was told that the order had been cancelled by the original location, who didn't have the phone in stock.

    I made the trip to the store who had the phone, where I was advised by the manager Lisa **, that since the order was cancelled, there was no order to pull up. Lisa tried her very best to work with me, but she couldn't help in the end and told me that the contract I had been offered the day before couldn't be honoured, as the phone had now tripled in price! She said my only options were to do the buyout or try another carrier and return the phone to Bell, since I was trying to keep my expenses the same as I had been paying. Lisa told me that I had until February 1, 2025 to decide what I wanted to do, but she also offered to keep an eye out to see if the phone I wanted came down in price and she would call me if it did.

    I left Lisa's College Park store and called Bell, where I got one of the rudest, most difficult people to deal with. She kept telling me that they couldn't honour the contract I had agreed to, since it had been cancelled and prices had changed overnight. I was absolutely livid and wrote Bell off as my service provider. However, true to her word, Lisa called me the next day and indeed she could get me the phone, which she did have in stock, for $1 more than I had been paying. She said that prices had dropped overnight. I immediately went to her store and completed the transaction.

    Lisa's customer service is flawless and I understand why she is the store manager. If it had not been for Lisa **, I would have left Bell, as a very unhappy customer! I hope that Bell Corporate appreciates employees like Lisa....they are few and far between. Thanks so much to Lisa Khan at the Bell College Park store, for her exemplary customer service and saving the day for me!

    Here’s a revised version of your complaint as a Google review without personal details: Review for Bell Services. While Bell’s mobile and mobility services are excellent, my experience with their home internet installation has been a disaster. I was promised installation within 1-2 days but faced repeated delays. 1. I canceled my existing internet services based on a promised installation date of December 31. 2. On December 31, I was told there was an internal mistake and rescheduled to January 6. 3. On January 6, despite assurances from a representative who claimed to have confirmed the new date with a technician, the installation was again delayed. 4. Today, January 9, I was informed the installation is delayed yet again until next week.

    This level of negligence and poor communication is unacceptable. Mistakes happen, but repeated delays despite assurances show a lack of professionalism. This is how companies lose loyal customers. Bell needs to improve its service and provide compensation for the inconvenience caused.

First, I was promised to not be charged the connecting fee for the 2 lines I have ($147) and that my monthly bill will be around $87 for both phones because of the discounts and promotions they had that time. Come billing time, my I was charged the connecting fee and my monthly bill was $112 after tax. The connecting fees ($147) were credited back to my account after I disputed it but they couldn't do anything about the bill because it's been posted already. The lady who helped me over the phone was nice and offered to put me on a cheaper plan but it won't be in effect till this January since they do changes every first of the month and I called mid December. That's fine by me. I was told over the phone that my bill will be around $90 before tax for both lines.

    Yesterday, I received an email breakdown of what my future bill will look like and it's $105 before tax. I called Bell to inquire about it but they couldn't find any notes on file. He said to wait until my bill is out but I told them the last time I did, I was told they couldn't do anything about it since it's been processed already.

    **Review for Bell: ★☆☆☆☆**. I have been a customer of Bell since 2009, a loyal 15 years, but my recent experiences have been incredibly disappointing. It feels like they treat long-standing customers as if we've never been with them before, with no emphasis on customer retention. I recently missed a deadline for a phone upgrade and was shocked to find an $800 charge on my bill. When I called customer service, all I received was a dismissive "tough luck" regarding the phone's remaining costs. It's frustrating, especially since I'm part of their Employee Program (EPP), which has proven to be more trouble than it's worth. To make matters worse, the new Apple 1TB phone isn’t offered through Bell EPP program, forcing me to go to the Apple Store and deal with paperwork. Anything related to my phone has to be handled over the phone, as store agents are locked out of the system and the Bell app are both useless for these matters.

    I also had issues with an Apple Watch I wanted to apply to the EPP. Despite finding the watch in a Bell store, the agent could not apply it and directed me to call the EPP program customer service. On the phone, I was told the watch wasn't in their system at that location and that I needed to drive an hour to another store to get it. This is unacceptable. Additionally, it took nearly six months to get my cable hooked up, and when it finally happened, the promised discounts were no longer applied. I had to threaten cancellation just to get the situation rectified. Overall, my experience with Bell has been frustrating and unprofessional over the years, no signs of improvement. I would not recommend their services based on the poor customer service and lack of support for loyal customers.

    I have had to call Bell representatives multiple times this year-six times in total-to address the same ongoing issue, which has persisted for over a year. Instead of properly fixing the problem, the technicians simply move a connection from one terminal to another, offering a temporary “solution” that fails shortly after. This lack of proper troubleshooting and care is incredibly frustrating, especially considering the customer in question has been loyal to Bell since the 1970s. She is an elderly individual who relies on her phone as her lifeline, making this level of service completely unacceptable. Rather than truly addressing the root cause of the issue, Bell’s approach seems to be putting a band-aid on the problem.

    They had me take my wife and 4 month old kid to a Bell store because they refused to do a sim swap over the phone. This is because my original sim was stuck in the mail and they couldn’t verify who I was over the phone. They will activate as many lines as you want over the phone to take your money though….

    This has been the worst service I have ever experienced. We have been Bell subscribers for almost 20 years, and when we moved from BC to AB, they still could not change my service region. I have called every week, and I'm not getting dishonest answers, no service, or missed service calls. I refuse to pay my Bell bill until my subscription service is available to my receivers. If possible do not use Bell. The customer service is bad and one star was too high of a rating.

My husband, who is the account owner, has called customer support more than 20 times. On one occasion, they simply closed the ticket and stated that they could not reach us.

    I’ve consistently had strange and frustrating experiences when trying to contact Bell’s customer service. The account verification process is unnecessarily convoluted. First, I’m asked for my account number—how many customers actually have this memorized? Why not just use the phone number on the account, which I’ve noticed some agents do to successfully pull up my information?

    After providing this, I still have to verbally verify my email address, check my email for a passcode, submit that passcode, and even create a new one for Bell to assist me. This entire process took 10–15 minutes. While I managed to navigate it because I’m tech-savvy, I can’t imagine how difficult this would be for someone less comfortable with technology.

    My advice: Make it easier to be a customer. This much back and forth isn’t necessary, and it’s frustrating. The clerk assisting me was patient and helpful, so I do want to thank him for his support, but the process as a whole is inefficient. Every time I call Bell, I end up spending nearly an hour on the phone for what should be a quick resolution. This reflects poorly on Bell, as it wastes both the company’s resources and the customer’s time.

    Smart Home Services: The Smart Home system has been the most disappointing security experience I’ve ever had. I honestly feel I would’ve been better off using Alexa or Google devices for home security. For example, the second doorbell Bell installed is so slow to connect to the app that by the time the camera activates, the person at the door is already gone. For context, I use a brand-new Samsung Galaxy S24+ with Bell’s own 1.5Gbps Fibe internet. Despite this, Bell insists the issue lies with my connection—which they provided.

    The billing process for Smart Home is another major issue. It’s separate from the One Bill system, which forces me to jump through hoops to pay. Worse, I have no clear visibility into what I’ve paid for—likely because the service hasn’t delivered any value. Even basic functionality like the doorbell doesn’t work properly, despite being adjustable through the main control box.

    Overall Experience: I am deeply dissatisfied with my Bell experience. From the drawn-out customer service process to the subpar Smart Home services and disorganized billing, Bell needs to do much better. I hope these issues are addressed soon, as they are not reflective of the quality a leading provider should offer.

    I tried to purchase a phone and monthly plan with Bell the other day, switching from a pre-paid plan with Bell, but the sales rep had difficulty because there was an outstanding charge from a phone plan that I had never used from the first time I tried to switch to a monthly plan. After being on the phone with Bell agents while I was standing in the Bell store, for over 2 hours, trying to get the issue resolved I was told to just pay the bill and then get refunded the next day.

    After being on the phone for 2 hours that seemed reasonable to me, so I paid the bill and finally got my phone and plan. Two days later when I went to get a refund I was told that they can't issue a refund because the bill was over 30 days old and there was nothing they could do. Bell screwed up the first time by giving me a product I didn't want, charged me for it and then lied to me and refused to give me back my money afterwards.

    I cannot make this stuff up. 1st we made months of calls to set up a new line, was told to so they were ready, after an 18 month period every time we called it was like talking to someone new and they wrote down or tracked nothing. We moved in and after 18 months we will had to wait another year before they got their stuff together. Then they left the fiber on top of the ground instead of digging it in. The rep said he doesn't shovel. Have to call Bell. After 7 tickets they still sent no one and after a year the yard workers tore it out and they said, "You will have to wait." We finally dug it in ourselves.

    The modem continually locked causing us to continually have to unplug and replug up to 20 times a day just to have service, once the system locks at night you have to physically be in the building to reboot the modem again, so they created a ticket to have it fixed. Next day a box showed up and just a modem inside. Nothing else at all. We did what we could and after 8 hours we had it finally working. The system worked great. After 22 hours received a call from Bell and again they had requested a call about our home service instead of my work service. This management type lied through his teeth saying there was no way we should have to install or dig in any services and that he would research it and get back to me. 2 weeks later and still nothing from this person.

    After that call 25 mins later the wifi yet again went out and we had no wife to monitor security cameras or locks for doors through remote systems. Continually had to argue with staff that it was a BUSINESS address and not a residential address. They said again they would create a work ticket to get it fixed as again the modem locked. The tech was supposed to be here between 12 and 5, the modem again locked at 10 am and we left it so he could see it locked, and at 1620 we get a call that he has been stuck at a call since 1300 and would not make it, 3 hours he knew and did not call to let the customer know..

    I called and asked for business and that I wanted to speak to business tech support. He demanded to know why. I said, "That is for the business tech not for residential and I will tell them", he sent me to residential tech support, then it started. She wanted to cancel my home service and I told her it was BUSINESS not residential then she wanted to verify the address yet again as I told her the address at the beginning but when I said my number it defaulted to my residential and she kept trying to verify the address, finally after enough jousting she put me through to business and he told me that he would cancel the wifi but it was bundled with phone so I would have to sign a new contract for my phone line in order to cancel my contract on wifi.

    Whatever you do, do NOT sign up for this company!! We were going to switch our home services to Bell last year when the door to door salesman sold us on their deal, we had them come in and hook up the service and decided the EXACT same night to cancel bell because the internet speed was less than we had with Cogeco (we never even cancelled our cogeco). Returned the bell equipment as instructed and again we had the service in our home for a maximum of 24hours IF that…after all equipment was returned they continued to send us bills via email, each time we called they said “no, you don’t have an account with us”. This went on for months.

    Months of evenings spent on the phone with Bell Canada trying to get to the bottom of it, and not a single employee could tell us what the charge was for….They reassured us it was an error and we owed nothing. Fast forward to today, we received a COLLECTION NOTICE for $337.87 for BELL!!!! Never have we been in collections and now our credit can be negatively impacted by this absolute scam of a company.

    My review stems from the service I received and the illogical billing process that I experienced. TLDR: After calling for advice on what I should do as I will be out of the country, I was provided with poor advice and overcharged. The solution I was provided was convoluted and required me to remove "Roam Better" from my account and call Bell representatives directly to have them turn off my account data if I am travelling abroad if I still wanted to be able to receive text messages and see who calls while travelling. In the end I received a discount for some of the overcharge but the logic, headache, and lack of pre-emptive advice for a responsible consumer was disheartening.

    August 2024. I call Bell Canada to let them know I am leaving the country for an indefinite amount of time and want to know what options I have regarding my cellular service. At this time I am planning on going to Europe (Plan to use an Esim) for a few months then onto Antarctica (no cellular service provided). I was first advised that I could suspend my account which I understood to mean I would lose services but maintain an active account to ensure I did not lose the phone number I have had for 15+ years. I also had understood this to mean I would not be required to pay my monthly phone bill (device was paid off) until I reactivated the plan. This seemed logical so I requested to go this route.

    I called Bell Canada a week or so later as I am in a Canadian Airport to make sure that my billing will stop and to ensure I didn't miss anything. I am then told through inquiries that a suspended plan just means I have no access to services, I will still have to pay my monthly payments. Disappointed and confused that this was not advised earlier I asked what my best option was, and they said that they did not have any pay per use, or more basic plans available and that my $45/month was the best option. I said okay, and that I would just turn off the Data option directly on the My Bell account as well as be hyper aware not to make any phone calls or texts unless I absolutely needed to. In my head this would ensure no over charges.

    September 2024. I was travelling through Europe and got my first bill which was about $100 over my usual and I assumed that I had made a mistake or left my data on for something. So I doubled down, ensuring that data was off on my device and my Bell Account.

    October 2024. I complete this leg of travel and return to Canada. I receive a $200 phone bill.... So I call Bell. I am advised of the following concerning items.

    1. The first person on the phone falsely says that every time I connect to a cellular network I will be charged the $16 for that days roam better, whether or not any message or data transfer takes place (Remember I have turned off data from an account level in the My Bell App).

    2. I am told that any use of data is rounded up to the nearest GB. In my case that would have meant if I was not on the Roam Better, I was told I would have been charged at a rate of $8/mb at an automatic rounding up to gb of $8,000 for any internet usage. In my example the data amount used was 0.05mb.

    3. I was charged for 11 days of Roam Better which was approx $160 on top of the $45. My total messages sent were something like 11 (~$11 if I was no on Roam Better) and data usage was less than 5mb (Not on Roam better would have been $8,000 as its rounded up to nearest GB).

    3. I was advised after I spoke on the phone with an escalated manager that I needed to call Bell (I did twice and was not advised of this prior to departing) to turn off my data from an account level as the same option on My Bell account does not cut it off to the same level.

    After I spoke to the escalated manager I was given a credit which was appreciated. But the fact of the process and their inability to provide me proper direction as I tried to call prior to my trip and get it sorted so I would not have to deal with this extra billing headache is rational for me to change providers and share this review.

    The very first thing I will indicate is my family and I have been Bell customers since 1977 with the exception of 2 years. Back in August 2024, I received a bill for a non-return modem charge. I had addressed through a phone call to Bell. The call was referenced EZ#### on August 16th, 2024. We went through the whole tracking of the shipment where the courier lost it. Ian mentioned he created a report to have it resolved. He mentioned it would be within the next billing cycle and not to pay the current bill. I had already paid it. There are also four chats included in this document where agents repeatedly asked me to go through the whole situation again. Not good!

    During these logs, there was also repeated resolutions where a credit would be requested. At one point, one of the agents indicated the credit was there. Chat Reference number ####, which is in the attached document indicated such credit. Marishane mentioned there was an excess credit which I had then asked to be transferred to account ####. She had confirmed that there would be a credit of $14.20. At this point, I thought to myself, I now have a month where I did not have to pay Bell.

    The next billing cycle came, and to my surprise, account #### was paid and had a credit of $14.20. However, account #### not only did it have a charge on it, it also had a return payment of the amount equivalent to the amount that was transferred to account ####. I was furious as I couldn't figure out why there was a bill for $224.87.

    I had a chat with Jordan where the chat was not sent to me. They would call me back, but did not. I waited for their call. I then chatted with Nika on Oct. 10. She said there was no credit and the amount was just a transfer from one account to another. I said I wasn't paying for the bill. Bell sent me an email demanding payment or services would cut off. I paid the bill which have been resolved. This money would have been better spent elsewhere. I have filed a complaint to the Better Business Bureau.

Next day I get a call from the technician who is at the other property where the internet is already installed saying the internet was already installed. I called again and they could not send a tech out that day (it was only midday). This company makes it difficult to speak to someone and even when you manage to, they can rarely do anything except send you to another department and often in circles.

I was with them for over 10 years with my TV, internet and cell and had to switch companies because they kept bringing the price up! I started by changing my internet and tv. I told them I could get a better price and they said to go to the other company and once I changed they called to get me back with better prices when they told me they could not do any better.

    Then my cell phone! I was paying $95 for 20g of data so I called for a better price and same thing, they said there’s nothing they could do except give you more data, they gave me 50g. I said I could get better with another company and they told me there’s nothing they can do to come close to the price I got. I told them just put me in touch with the people that call me with a better deal once I would change companies and they said they could not do that, they will only call once you change! That’s the dumbest thing I ever hear!!!

    So I said I will switch to the other company and told them not to call me with a better price once I did like they always do!! They said they put it in the notes and wouldn’t call but the same day I switched I got a call saying we noticed you switched and we are calling to offer you a better price! I said I got 100g for way cheaper than them and they said they would do $29 plus tax for 100g! Which is even cheaper than the other company but I had already paid the other company a connection charge and fees…

    To top it off when I canceled they said I owed them another $80 for the last bill that wasn’t paid yet and I told them I paid it already and they said no you didn’t, it’s a different bill I had paid so I paid them and then after a month of canceling I get a bill saying I overpaid so I had a credit. I called them to get my money back and they said it will take 60 days to process and send a check!! I asked them why 60 days and they said it’s because they need to get it approved. Why approve? It it’s a credit they owe me 'cause they made me over pay…. This company is so stupid it’s insane.. The worst part is they did something similar when I cancelled my TV and internet.

No email to advise, no warnings until Bell used my CC to pay the bill in full. I had to drop Bell for terrible cell phone service. Just had to change my modem because my high speed internet would not download Google search pages and now they will not even apply my paid amount to my internet service of which I will be finding a new provider for Internet and TV. What a rip off. Loyal as long they get my money. They will do nothing to help this. Even asked that they give me TV for the time I actually paid for it and they told me they can't help me. How is this ok?

    Last week I ordered Bell T.V. and 3 Fibe service. We had a few questions about porting over the previous owner's landline number (my partner's childhood phone number - her mom's house - Mom is now in a "long-term-care home"). From the get-go, it seemed like the CSRs were confused about porting a number, installing a new account, and other minor things. After talking to 3 different CSRs to get an answer that seemed to be a little more knowledgeable and logical about the situation we waited only a few days for the Tech (and he didn't call ahead which was promised) to show up. The 3 CSRs had jumbled the information and created a second job order. We didn't get Service that day... And I took a day off of work for nothing. The second appointment for installation was made and I was only given a timeframe for it after calling customer support and asking, again we were assured the Technician would call ahead.

    I took the day off of work, chilled at a neighbor's diagonal to my home, and waited for the confirmation call/text. The window for installation was running down so I walked across the street to my home and gave Customer Service a call. The Technician was at the address and gone citing "no one home". Again no call/text to my number or e-mail that the Tech was on the way. The CSR I had on the phone for this call could tell I was frustrated about losing 2 days of would so far and put me on the line with "Bell Resolution" and Maria. She settles it out and gives me her contact number to call should I have any issues.

    On the third installation day, the technician pulls into the driveway blocking us in... I pull out my phone from my pocket, no calls/texts to be seen, I check my e-mail nothing there either. I greet the Tech' and let him know the area where we would like the new box. All is good… Except the Tech’ seems confused about the old account. I assure him he doesn't need to do anything with it, it's for the "other unit" and has the home landline on it. After hearing him drill into the wall I ask "Do you need a hand or do you need a cabinet moved?" "Nope good here” is the response from him. I call Maria's line again, still no answer… I leave an updated message.

    After this, he comes to tell me he needs to leave the house to go down the road, when he does I go to have a look at the work, a bad feeling sitting in my gut. The tech has put a hole in the wall in nearly a foot in a half from the corner of the walls. Where it can’t be hidden and will be in the way of a patio door install we will be doing shortly. After sliding out the small cabinet he comes back to the house and I ask him if he could not have installed the line closer to the corner where it wouldn’t be such an eyesore, he answers “That he could have”. I ask if it’s too late to fix it now. He answers “The line is cut and he can’t make it longer”. I ask if we are stuck with it? He responds “Yes”. The picture is attached.

    It will take a long time for Bell to earn my trust and at this point, I will not recommend them to friends or family currently. Two plus days of lost wages, broken promises, and a hole in our house that is simply shoddy work and unnecessary in it’s location. I will be calling "Customer Service" again once the Tech leaves. I expect no help will be given... Just more double talk and baloney.

    I have dealt with Bell before but have never been as disappointed as I am today. I work with a wealth management firm and our internet and phone suddenly cut out. This is a very urgent and detrimental thing as we have client meetings and trades that need to be executed in a timely manner. I spoke to probably 10 phone reps, all of who insisted they could not locate our account despite me giving all the information that was used to locate my account last time I called. On top of that, I was repeatedly transferred between residential and business departments as they could not figure out which department our Internet service fell under. An hour on the phone yesterday and another 40 minutes today and I got nowhere, Internet is still down, and I have lost all faith in Bell.
