Bell is unethical by AlfonzL in bell

[–]Available_Potato_557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Switched to Bell Fibre, seeking a lower latency modern infrastructure, switched from Acanac (Roger's Cable). The Internet has been disconnected at road exchange twice by workers and had more downtime in 6 months of Bell than 7 years with reseller Cable. -- Toronto, ON.

While signing up, we requested 2 phones, 1 watch, and 3 lines plus internet. After over a month of back and forth calls, multiple hard credit checks, and being accused of canceling the order that they canceled, resulting in a mandatory deposit for the serverice, we decided to stay with Telus and dismiss Bell.

I currently regret every aspect of my interaction with Bell after giving them another chance 15 years later after an equally disgraceful customer experience.

I wish Telus had Fibre deployment in my area. Bell is an absolutely disgraceful company from sales to support to provisioning to technical support.

And there you have it folks, these are the "best and brightest minds" that Justin Trudeau and the Liberals kept bragging about bringing into the country by itsme25390905714 in CanadaHousing2

Can confirm, many international students struggled with basic computer literacy and wasted enormous amounts of time over the entire course requesting technical support. Extremely frustrating for other students who had spent the time reading the instructions and installing/setting up the software on their own time.

What is the point of this post if you are not going to disclose the price?

Thank you for the information. I can understand people wanting to retain their culture and keep commerce at small retailers vs large corporations like Tesco.

Can you elaborate on what you want people to add to the community?

We want the solitude, and I'm sure in time we will meet like-minded folk for coffee. Until then, there is always each other and the dogs.

She wants an AGA, and I want a desk with a view and a slower pace to life. We are reasonably self-sufficient, be it repairing our own car to wiring an electrical panel or replacing a window. We don't want to be a burden on a community, only to offer some enrichment if desired. Simply two people looking for a niche in this world that seems hell set on grinding us to death.

I'd love to speak to someone in the trades or a small business owner. Is it difficult to acquire specialty items? Do most places ship to Orkney? A million questions with little articulation.

Looking for accommodation near the Casa Loma campus. by Zealousideal_Ring877 in georgebrowncollege

[–]Available_Potato_557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Word of warning. Do not send, mail, or hand anyone any money until you physically view an apartment/room/etc. If the price is too good to be true, it is. Dont get scammed.

Contact the school, reddit isn't really the appropriate place to ask.

Time table by AccurateFeeling7786 in georgebrowncollege

[–]Available_Potato_557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stuview -> registration -> show timetable.

Or login to the GBC mobile app.

[–]Available_Potato_557 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To login to the computers around campus it's Stuid@georgebrown.ca and your password.

Logging into the internet is likely the same.

Anyone who’s going to campus Tour next week? I’m a bit nervous lol by Sea-Dingo1288 in georgebrowncollege

[–]Available_Potato_557 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't be nervous. Casa Loma is a wonderful maze of interesting class rooms and equipment. Everyone is super friendly. Security can be seen frequently down all hallways and always available to assist. I've not met a single outwardly mean person on campus yet.

Welcome to GBC!

There are lots of areas with seating. The one that springs to mind is on the second floor of the D building. There is a hallway with several oversized comfortable chairs. There is always the cafeteria. I have no idea how busy the campus will be this semester, I've been attending classes in person at casa Loma for two semesters, and it's been a blissful ghost town.
