  Do not go with TekSavvy - at all costs! I am a full-time online student and my internet has been unstable since it was installed, leaving me to buy obscene amounts of data from my phone provider to be able to do school work, stream classes, and write final exams. I have used 40GBs on my phone in less than 15 days as the internet cuts in and out every 5-10-20 minutes. Every time I have called TekSavvy they give me the same spiel, "we will put a ticket in, Bell will come out, and we can troubleshoot". Every time Bell (line supplier) comes out they say the same thing "looks good from our end". We have switched out everything, including the modem. When discussing my frustration with a supervisor about my wasted time and money, I was given no customer service and told the same things again. It is ridiculous to pay $85 monthly for an untrustworthy and nonfunctioning service. I'm not sure what their customer service is getting paid for other than to read off a script and say "sorry" unapologetically. This is a company whose customer service is delusional and lacks empathy and a basic understanding of what the right thing to do is.

  We certainly understand how frustrating these issues can be. We tried looking into the account to determine the cause of these issues. Unfortunately we are not able to locate an account with the name or email associated with this complaint.

  I have been with Teksavvy for many years now, I have never had anything but great, fast service from them even when I called in a problem and it turned out it was me LOL. They were courteous, polite and diligent. Not sure who all the people here with 1 star ratings were actually talking to, maybe just someone who was having a bad day? I plan to continue with teksavvy for the foreseeable future.

  Tech-Savvy has the worst customer service I have ever experienced. The supervisor left a voice mail but would not speak with me directly. I was shocked that someone in a management/supervisory position would be so unprofessional. They did a poor job at installation and left silicone all around the cable which looked like a huge blob of silicone. All I wanted was the technician to come and clean it up as it was a very sloppy job. They tried sending me back to Cogeco but Cogeco explained that this company outsource their technicians which they did. The technician who came said he did not work for techsavvy or Cogeco. When I contacted Tech-Savvy a second time after the supervisor left a voice mail refusing to do anything for me, I requested to speak with the supervisor once again, she actually refused to take my call. So not only do they do terrible, sloppy work and outsource inexperienced technicians, their management team is completely unprofessional and they do not stand behind their work. I will also ad that their internet was slow and choppy, not a good experience all the way around. I would not only never recommend this company I would also deter clients from dealing with them. Very unprofessional company.

  Hello Suzanne, 
  
  
  
  We can usually link the account to the name/email provided when leaving a BBB Customer Review.
  
  We have tried many ways, and are unable to come up with an account. 
  
  
  
  We apologize for the problems you have experienced with your install. We can understand wanting the cable to be installed with little to no residue left over, we would want the same result ourselves.
  
  We also would like to take the time to apologize for lack of communication from supervisors in your case.
  
  
  
  If you still have an active account, and would like further assistance, please send your account details to [email protected].

  Teksavvy left me with 17 days without internet in my apartment. They never called me to continue to follow up with my case and I had to constantly be the one advocating for my issue. It took them 14 days to finally offer to send me a wifi hub that was only 10gb. They never kept the same technician following my case for continuity and were not able to fix my issue after 17 days without internet. I spent around 8 hours ofer those 17 days on the phone with technicians with teksavvy, I wasted my time and they clearly don’t know how to fix and trouble shoot internet problems with their dsl modems. I would warn everyone to go with a better internet provider. Teksavvy doesn’t know how to help their customers and they are a company that is ok with leaving their customers 17 without wifi. Stay away from this company.

  Hello Savannah, 
  
  
  
  We are terribly sorry to read about your experience. 
  
  We have reviewed your account and see that before March 4th, the last time you called us was May of 2021 when you signed up. It looks like there were a lot of phone calls this month, and again, we apologize that we were not able to get this issue resolved for you. It looks like the modem was replaced, a technician was dispatched, tech support worked with you, and a HUB was sent, however we were still not able to get you back online. At this time, we see that you have cancelled your service with us, which means that we are not able to dig into this further.
  
  
  
  We wish you the best with your new provider, and would like to thank you for the past two years of business.

  I have been a Teksavvy customer for more than 15 years. Their customer service used to be fantastic but has been going steadily downhill for the last 5 years or so. I am currently on my third day without reliable service and no answers, which seems to be an issue that has been cropping up once or twice a year for the past few years.
  I think it's time to start investigating alternate service providers.

  I've had TekSavvy internet in Vancouver for 7 months, and I'm sorry I'm moving out of Canada and can't keep it. The internet and wifi has been very fast and reliable. Their support folks are patient and very helpful. I can only hope for as good a service where I'm going. Definitely recommend.
