Internet Outage?

[jacash01]

Is anyone aware of the internet and cable outage in Brampton. What is the current status and when can we expect to be back online? I work from home and have lost a half day not being able to connect to the internet.

Thanks for your response... I am not exactly sure how to send a private message from @CommunityHelps. I feel really frustrated at this point, offline all day and no status updates from Roger's, absolutely nothing.. I expect Roger's to be proactive with comms in such situations, but it feels more like you just reactive. I found out myself that there was an issue then had to call in to find out what the issue is, which is still being referred to as just an "outage"... then no one is able to give me an ETA either. This is my livelihood that's being affected. While I understand that certain things are sometimes out of your control and is gonna happen occassionally but communication is in on your control, I would have expected to see email update or texts at least every hour.... just feeling really frustrated and trying to figure out how to make up for the lost day... hope this will be resolved soon.

Due to a fibre cut which was caused by a traffic accident, some customers in Brampton, Ontario may continue to experience a disruption to their Internet, TV, and Home Phone service. Repairs are ongoing as we work to restore service. Thank you for your continued patience.

Please feel free to send us a private message so that we can look into finding more details for you.

Thank you for understanding!
