I hate this company. Ever since they bought Shaw the service has turned to shit.

[–] TheFeatureCreature@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I dunno, I have had nothing but awful experiences with Shaw for over 10 years even when they were independent. They consistently lied to me and my family, overcharged us, and provided shoddy service which, at times, was barely functional. The layout of my local Shaw office is burned into my mind forever because of how damn often I was in that place.

That sucks. we have had Shaw since 2009, and it has been reliable and staff have been helpful. Their XB6 and XB7 routers are junk though and they want you to admin through a phone app. I just had them bridge an old cisco one they have and use my own router. Now they are with Rogers they call each month trying to get me to lock in to a plan that is more expensive.

So Rogers is going to become majority owner of MLSE?

Only good things can come from this! 🥸

CBC has this to add:

Bell Canada Enterprises (BCE Inc.), which owns 37.5 per cent of MLSE, said in a Wednesday press release that the deal is expected to close in mid-2025.

The company said that it is selling its ownership stake to reduce its debt and "support its ongoing transformation" from a telecommunications firm to a tech company.

What the hell are they doing over there?

LMAO @ "tech" company. They are trying to get higher valuation. I don't see that happening.

It sounds like MBA word salad. “We’re adding AI to the phone system somehow”.
