I think we've already established that he can't go wrong with the Shaw phone service. Otherwise the beardedTree would indeed deserve a beatin'...not to mention me.

LOVE shaw! Best customer service by far. Unfortunately my cell is with Rogers...what a mistake that was. Its like night and day between the two when it comes to service. Rogers could care less and Shaw actually does seem to care or at least has trained their employees to be nice IMO there is only one provider with worse customer service than Rogers...and they like to color yellow tangs purple and blue.

I know a couple of people who had Telus TV and ended up switching to Shaw. Let's just say, there must be a reason why Telus gives away their equipment. I use Expressvu for TV. Their HD PVRs are the best, hands down.

I had Telus TV when I lived in Edmonton, had it about a year, never had any major issues. It went down once for about an hour, but that was it.
