My problem with Bell is that anytime I make a call to customer service I usually get the call centre in Quebec and I just have a very hard time with accents. I'm not racist and I don't dislike the french, but I just have a hard time understanding them sometimes. I only have to call them about once a year to help my parents out, so I don't have a very strong sample size to make my claim.

I threatened to leave shaw a few months ago and they gave me a killer deal (free hd pvr for 6 months and $30/month for everything sans movies). Once my 6 months were up and I called to cancel they didn't even try to keep me. I'm quite surprised they haven't called me yet to offer another deal. Perhaps no offer is coming. Hopefully they do a push in the fall ... I needs me my hockey.
