Hi! We haven't offered fixed rates services for about 5 years now. What we offer are fixed promotions that stay the same for the specified amount of time, so price hikes can happen on the basic services. If you'd like us to verify what happened with the 35$ charge, we'd recommend you contact us directly either through our call center at ###-###-####, or through our social media platforms. - ThierryReview from Elisabeth G

I got cogeco internet and tv for my new house. There was a promotion. Within two months, they were charging more than I had agreed to. When I called, I learned that I didn't have a "contract", but a "service arrangement". There are the base fees and then there's a promotion. They are unrelated, distinct. They then increase the base fees at their whim but you still have the promotion! What a deal!!! I had only been a customer for two months and when I said I hadn't been notified of this increase, they said they sent a notification three months before the increase in fees. And that's why I wasn't notified. So it was my fault for not being a customer one month earlier to know * ***** ** ****** *** ** **** ******** *** ***** ** *** ***** *** **** *** ********* ***** ********* *** ********* *** ******Cogeco Connexion Response

We're sorry you've had a poor experience with our services and customer service. While it is true that we have no fixed rates (meaning the price can increase, and we warn customers of those increases), the agent that took care of the initial sale should have warned you that there was going to be an increase in pricing in the following months. If you'd like to escalate this to a supervisor, you can find our complaint form online on our website here: https************************************* - ThierryReview from Kurt S

We're sorry to hear you've been having issues with our TV service. You technically should be able to set up recording for only new episodes. For more information or to get in touch with tech support, you can contact us at ###-###-#### or through our social media pages. - Thierry CogecoReview from Original poster

**** *******. Promises a rate for 2 years and not even 6 months in raises it, despite being told beforehand that that's won't happen - repeatedly. Called customer service who says they can't do anything and then transferred to a manager who immediately had major attitude issues and basically told me tough luck, we don't care. Oh and next year they are going up again. Despite my original co tract that DID NOT state a reduction for2 years, but a guaranteed rate. ** *** ** *** * *** ******** *****Cogeco Connexion Response

Hi! We don't offer fixed rates and haven't done so for close to 5 years now. Furthermore, the price hikes affect the base price of the services, while the promotions we offer are unaffected, which is what is offered at the start. If you'd like to review your monthly fees or if you want to verify what could be happening with your internet service, you can contact our customer service directly so we can help you with that. - Thierry CogecoCustomer Response

You may not have done so for close to 5 years, but that's what all your agents are offering. Including the ones that come to the door and on the phone. So it sounds like your company is engaging in deliberate ***** and then negating the fact.Review from Bruce S

Agreed to change all services home phone, internet, TV to Cogeco only to find afterwards they were going to hang overhead wiring. I've had underground fiber-optic for four years and would not go back to the **** pole wire and subsequent in-house re-wire. Phoned to cancel PRIOR to installation date and was told I had to speak to LOYALTY group who in turn via recorded message informed me " due to higher than normal communication traffic all agents were busy and they would return my call in THREE DAYS"!!!!! I did not sign a contract with them and will not allow installer on property. Full stop. They push for a quick install date ******* **** ***** **** ***** ********* ** ** ***** **** ****** **** *** ****** ** **** ** ******* ******* ********* ***** ***** ** **** Very pushy *** ************ business practice.Review from Bonny W

***** ** ********* Have had it for about 4 months and 3 tech visits and all equipment has been changed and one line repaired. Remote and tv always freezes. Fast forward and rewind don't work. TV randomly turns off. Now new one where my phone won't connect to wifi and has been using my data instead which I know have to pay for as I didn't realize this was happening till I got a warning. Cogeco trying to say my phone isn't compatible maybe with 5G. It's an android and it's only 1 yr old and up to date and both ******** and ***** say that it is compatible and that it's my internet service is the problem. My phone's wifi works anywhere else. My son also says his ****** tries to first connect to his data as well briefly then switches over. Now they're coming out a fourth time to look and say it might be chargeable but at the same time there's a signal issue which they said the other four times they've come out. They said they can't put my old service back but also can't seem to fix the new one and they will charge for cancellation of services they can't seem to provide. Contstantly resetting the box and nothing improves. ***** *** ****** *** **** ***** ** ********* ** ** ****** ** *****Review from Ginaapaa A
