Unable to Reach Customer Service

[stewartw]

I am trying to cancel my Xfinity Internet, but I am unable to reach customer service. I am calling from Ontario, between 11:30 and 11:50AM. I've tried 1-855-201-9547, 1-888-764-3771, and 1-855-759-5857 a total of 10 times while choosing different menu options. All of them lead me to an automated voice message that says "Our customer service centres are currently closed, you can reach us during regular business hours".

Obviously, this is incorrect. I need a way to contact Rogers to cancel my internet, it is unacceptable that calling customer service is the only way to cancel. It is even more unacceptable that customer service cannot be reached because Rogers uses an automated system that cannot even get the time of day right.

I tried reaching out via live chat, and the agent was unable to assist. They gave me the same phone numbers to call, and were not able to provide an alternate contact.

I’m on Pacific Time so if your phone hours are open at 9am EST that would be 7am pacific time but all I get is the recording that phone line isn’t open and to call back during business hours, however it’s not stated what the business hours are!  
when I phone at 9:00 my time I’m faced with an hour + hold time. Unacceptable. I really don’t know what’s going on with Roger’s, but customer service is going downhill. Business hours cut way back, long hold times, and the past 3 months my bill has been incorrect. And I haven’t even been with Roger’s for a year. I don’t have hours to wait on hold to get my bill fixed every month.  I’m sorry I switched from Fido. But was offered a nice promo to switch because I had Fido and Shaw home services. After 5 months my bill started going up monthly. 
I was on CRTC website and it says Roger’s is #1 in customer complaints!!! I can see why.

Trying to reach the customer service is a joke. You might get through, but sit waiting for more than 45min IF by that time someone comes on the line. I live in Ontario., & if I call say around 7.30am., a recording comes on saying that the Customer Service Dept. is closed, & to try again later. Say what!!!??? We're always told that Customer Service employees are 100% Canadian...so, in that case, why can't we speak with a Rogers rep who's time would be 9am.

I found the live chat to be somewhat useless. It keeps asking if your issue is tv., internet, home phone. When one is enquiring about their products, e.g. if they have all 3 services, the same thing comes up in the chatbox asking which product you're enquiring about. The Customer service certainly isn't like it used to be, that's for sure. Even when phoning, you're on hold for a ridiculous amount of time even though Rogers professes that the reps are 100% located in Canada yet your call isn't directed to someone who is in another time zone which would enable them to assist you.

I totally agree, slm3. The "on hold" times are unacceptable!!!!!  I usually get notification that my bill is ready on the 6th of the month. This month (April), when it got to be the 10th, or 11th, I still hadn't received notification, & when I went into MyRogers, my amount owing was $0. When I finally reached someone in customer service, she had to get in touch with someone to ascertain what was going on. They were texting back/forth...& she advised that she was told there was a delay in processing the bill. I don't know if it's just my bill or if it's a problem with all billing. They told her that the billing was delayed, & I should check back on the 17th. Regardless of this information, I paid my bill anyway as it had been consistent. I shall keep a watchful eye on things. but Rogers needs to look into the declining issue of their Customer Service. The online chat is useless.

I was able to get thru this time to my surprise, but I’m told they can’t or won’t put the discount I had been offered for switching to Roger’s from Fido and being a home service customer that they took off my bill back.  Plus because I was a byod customer I also got a price hike on monthly bill. Insult to injury.  I haven’t even been with Roger’s a year and already a price hike!!!  
In trying to lower my bill back to what it was when I signed on I also notice the only good deals are for new customers, no customer retention deals.  Companies used to care about retaining customers.
