Re: [Megathread] Emergency alerts
I’m between a rock and a hard place. Telus and Eastlink are all that are readily available in my area. Was with Eastlink for years but they switched to some Android boxes as well but their version is terrible and glitchy. Combine that with their terrible upload bandwidth on their internet and here I am stuck with Telus. Honestly, outside of these incredibly annoying alerts it’s been pretty good but way more $$ than Eastlink.5.4KViews0likes3CommentsRe: [Megathread] Emergency alerts
Yep been a year now and this is still an issue. I, as well, just got the tornado warning for south eastern Alberta and am located in the lower mainland. Not sure why it’s so difficult to get these alerts for the affected area only. Was watching global on demand so not sure it has anything to do with channel selection. EDIT: 3 times in the last half hour for the same alert in Alberta. All while watching an on demand show.7.6KViews0likes0CommentsRe: [Megathread] Emergency alerts
Optik-Kate I appreciate someone finally taking some ownership on this issue. Perhaps it would be wise to have your off-shore phone support convey this as well instead of telling customers that it’s CRTC mandated and passing the buck. Thank you and look forward to this getting resolved.14KViews2likes5CommentsRe: [Megathread] Emergency alerts
Yup.. I think I got 4 or 5 in the space of an hour yesterday afternoon.. I suggest filing a complaint with the CRTC. I’ve emailed them and have yet to hear back. But this mandated excuse from Telus is a crock.. it only happens on the Android boxes and not the legacy PVRs.14KViews0likes0CommentsRe: [Megathread] Emergency alerts
Fabylous what relevance is cell network when talking about TV on HOME WiFi network? I have several friends and family that are on non-cloud based Telus TV and they don’t get these alerts! This is a defect in the Telus system and the CRTC is being used as an excuse!18KViews2likes1Comment
