you switched from shaw to telus? huh, i'm thinking of doing the opposite, i'm totally disappointed with telus tv. the picture freezes every now and then, and at one point couple months ago, it was barely watchable. and i find the picture quality for regular tv to be so so (unless it's HD). shaw picture quality seems to be much better.

Haha, I had the same picture issues with Shaw. Frozen picture, overly pixilized, everytime I tried to call them it was perpetual hold and then no one would be there. Over priced and crap channels, unless I wanted to pay my other arm and leg as well.

i use shaw without a problem. used to use bell and they suck for customer service. dish went down and they said they won't be able to send anyone for 2 weeks. decide to go with shaw and call to cancel. bell then say they would send someone the next day....those bastards.

whenever i have a problem with shaw, they send someone the next day.

When ever we get around to v.2 we should probably break it up like some of the other decent sized clubs.

So like:
- spotted thread
- general Vancouver bs & chat

Since we get some conversations in here (lol, like the most recent one about cable providers) that are so not in any way related to spottings

Actually, while a majority of the buildings they have connected are Concord Pacific developed, a large number aren't. I don't live in Downtown, yet my building has Novus internet. Unfortunately, I am stuck with Shaw for cable...who "accidentally" disconnected my cable for 3 weeks until they finally came to fix it.
