If the internet goes down this often, we'd recommend you reach out to our tech support team as this is definitely not normal.

Terrible experience

Terrible experience. I subscribed to their internet TV bundle but they didn't tell me the service would not work because I had an older computer. Then they tried to ding me for $80 to have a tech come out to my house.
It woud have been for nothing because the tech would bring his own computer, which being new, would work. I explained to them they were unable to deliver internet service, they hit me with a $125 plus disconnection fee. First I heard of it was when I started getting calls from their collections.
Steer clear of Cogeco if you have an older computer and never trust them to act in your best interest.

The age of the computer should not affect the ability to connect to the internet. We definitely recommend a tech visit for this so we can look into the issues in more details.

New customer treated horribly, still no modem

I only signed up online with some Yves guy on chat and he was just forgetful asking for the same info over and over. Asked me if I was sure my birthday was my birthday like I don't know when I was born. Blaming me for not calling sooner. I never planned to be with Cogeco it's only because Xplore doesn't operate where I moved to. He has no knowledge of my situation but tries to find something to turn it around on the customer and then cut the chat. I wasn't done asking questions about my new service and now there's a 50 minute wait for phone. The fact I had the old tenant's modem/router and it got cut last night he just absolutely refused to setup this one instead to ship one that'll be four to five days from now when a perfectly good piece of equipment is here ready now. I just started with Cogeco and I haven't even used the service yet and I'm not happy to be talked to in such a rude condescending way. Not impressed by the inefficiency and paying to ship two modems when no shipping was necessary and activation could've happened instantly. Update 1 week later: Still waiting for my modem/router from UPS and it's been sitting for two days in Pembroke Ontario. Not happy one bit. Just absolute nonsense after nonsense.

We apologise for the inconvenience the outage might have caused. If you haven't contacted our tech team yet, we'd recommend you do so, especially if those outages are frequent.

No internet since last evening

No internet since last evening. It is more than 12 hours. We are not getting any responses either by chat or phone. The outage notification just keeps on adding 1 hour whenever we check. We understand there was an outage yesterday due to thunder storm. But it has been more than 12 hours and no update on when the internet services will resume.

Customer service "Max" saved my day!

Today June 27,2026. I went to my local cogeco store. In Windsor, ON. On Dougal St. I was having difficulty with switching from Bell to Cogeco cell. One of the agents on staff, "Max" went above and beyond helping me to get set up. He never gave up, until he finally had me up and running. New Sim activated and all my settings perfect. This man deserves to be recognized as a valuable employee. I will certainly be telling everyone I know the wonderful service I received today from Cogeco. Thank you Max!

Decent internet at thrice the price of others

Decent internet at thrice the price of others.

Unfortunatly at my second residence they are the only provider available so I have no choice to go with them but I pay more for 120 gBps then I do for 1Giga with videotron. After that I learn that they have been raising my price by 5$ every 6 months (without warning) to 115$/month (with a "loyalty" discount of 35$) but their actual price is for the service now is 75$ with a 30$ new member discount. Honestly a completely dishonest company that takes advantage of people not looking at their bills.

You should have received warnings about the price increases. We usually send them through the online account, by email or through mail directly. If no warnings were received through any of those means, we strongly recommend you contact us so we can look into this with you.

Make it easy

Terminating the service with Cogeco was really challenging. It took one month bouncing from one assistant to another without a result. Finally I spoke to Dejuan, and the question has been solved in minutes. Great empathy and the ability to make it appen in a simple way. Great job Dejuan thank you for your help.
