Telcan Reviews Summary
Telcan has been reported to offer discounts, coupons, or other compensation in exchange for reviews. This has been shown to lead to biased or misleading reviews.
Because it's unstable, phone conversations and all electronics devices are unreliable too. Imagine it going off in the middle of an important conversation. Or having to repeatedly login when it frozen during work.
I joined telcan in agreement that they will not increase the price for two years. After 6 months they increased my internet by $7! When I talked to them why did this that, they claim that the main internet provider (Bell) increased the price and they were forced to increase my internet price as well. This doesn't make sense at all. This is bad business and it is scam. Other than that they internet is solid and customer service is reachable.
My advise don't do business with pre paid internet services who but internet service from big companies and sell it to customers. Because they will not respect their agreement just like Telcan did to me. Avoid telcan
Hello Suleiman, we apologize for any inconvenience caused by the recent changes to our promotional offers.

While we regret any disappointment, please know that our commitment to delivering exemplary customer service and premium products remains unwavering. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we are dedicated to providing Canadians with superior services and maintaining competitive pricing in the internet market. Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to the opportunity to continue serving you with excellence.
Always takes too long to get a connection. Sometimes more than 10 minutes. Not easy to refresh your ip-address. Occasional random service dropouts when connecting to overseas servers (that problem did not occur with previous isp.)
On the plus side, no contracts, no fee increases. So I stay hooked up.
I only get good internet the weeks after I complain about having bad internet. It's as if they just fix it for 2 weeks and then just let it get bad again! I work from home and have lost so many meetings and money due to the service being bad at least once per week. The price is good yeah but not worth it if I'm gonna end up with no internet at 3am for hours! And not just at 3am, that's just what seems to happen more often, no internet late at night.
The pic was taken today. I've been struggling to report the issue cuz I have no phone for now so I need internet to report lol.

I had an issue with local cable quality - Not Telcan's fault, there's a faulty cable somewhere in the neighbourhood.
Telcan was great with followup, checking in a few times to make sure that the issue had been resolved.
Hello Michael, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We're pleased to hear that our follow-up efforts were helpful. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we remain committed to providing reliable service.
It has been easy to contact Telecan whenever, I am faced with any issue. The customer care representative listen and have given me solutions that best fits my needs plus the customer care are pleasant and will allow me express my requirements. The customer care representatives are knowledgeable about support in the network. Call wait time is realistic and there is no waitlist, so I don't have to worry about holding on phone or waiting to be transferred!
Thank you, Carolyne! For giving us such a great review, and we're extra happy to hear that our support team has exceeded your expectations.
I have been with Telcan for some time now and as of recent have been in search of plans that better suit my budget given the stress higher food and energy costs. To be fair, I did reach out to Telcan and asked if they offered loyalty plans for long term customer? My answer was a flat out "No"!. I would have given them a 5 star but feel that customer loyalty is important to my as I am loyal to a fault when I find a company with few faults. Sure they could do better with more updated equipment offerings and their customer service has its issues but overall deserve 4 stars.

At Telcan, we highly value our long-term customers and strive to provide top-notch internet services. We understand the importance of customer loyalty and are committed to continuously improving our offerings.

Registering online and connecting was very easy. Telcan followed up to ensure everything was running smoothly. I wish we had known about this ips sooner
Thank you for taking the time to leave such an amazing review, Theresa! We're very glad that you have found our service to be excellent.
I have been using Telcan Internet for about two years now and I am very happy with it.
I constantly get great internet speed, and they do not block any content or sites.
Best of all that they do not surprise me with constant price hikes, unlike my previous experiences with Rogers and Bell who give you a decent deal initially but then keep increasing the price every few months.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us an insightful review, Ehsan! We will continue to strive to provide Canadians with the best possible service and competitive internet pricing. Thank you for your loyalty!
I recently moved and decided to change internet providers while at it. Telcan has been very reliable with only a couple of hiccups and the price is about half of what I was paying before for the exact same service.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Brandi! We are thrilled to hear that we were able to provide you with the internet plan of your choice at a great price
Was promised no downtime when I signed up as my wife and I were working from home. Internet and VOIP phone down for almost two weeks. Was offered a $10 credit for our trouble and unpaid days of work.
After two year contract, tried to renegotiate a deal, they weren't interested. So, I cancelled and switched to another provider with exactly 0 seconds of down time and they have the nerve to call me three times by three different people to try and convince me to stay with a deal!
They were nice enough to provide me a prepaid UPS shipping label to return their rented equipment and UPS tracking shows they received it April 4th, yet they keep emailing me with threats that they will charge me for the non-returned equipment. Lately it's a call at 9 at night again with the same threat picked up by my wife who freaked out. I keep replying with the info pictured.
Moron on phone confirmed receipt, hopefully that is the end of that.hopefully
Thank you for your feedback, Richard! Although we strive for 100% customer satisfaction, It's truly disappointing that you've had an experience with our service that hasn't met your expectations. We understand the frustration of encountering connectivity issues. We've examined your account, and it seems like an isolated issue as it is not impacting all cable clients in your area. We will use your feedback to make improvements to ensure we offer an exceptional experience for our clients in the future.
I have used this service since September 2022. So far, it is not bad. Speed is quite OK but sometimes disconnected. Some websites are blocked without any reason, e.g. Royal bank. I can't download the invoice due to technical errors without any solution. The price is quite reasonable with the promotion. I will consider it after 1 year using.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback Minh Ha, We've examined your account and it seems like an isolated issue as it is not impacting all cable clients in your area. We would like to take the opportunity to make it right for you, request you to please contact our 24/7 support team for further assistance. Thank you!
Telcan has been on top of this ever since I decided to switch to them from another provider. Text messages, calls, emails - the works to ensure a smooth transition. During the outage we had - they are happy to credit you for the time lost. All for a fair price. They are quick and professional - and anything a normal household could ask for and MORE!
Thank you, Patrick, for taking the time to write such a well-thought-out, positive review of our company and the services we provide. We are happy to have served you well.
Always been happy with the service. Any problems I've had have been addressed promptly and fixed right away. Customer support has been great. Always getting stated speeds with no lag. Download speeds are always constant and I even get more upload speed than specified. Never have anything buffer and media streams flawlessly.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such an amazing review, Robert! We're very glad that you have found our service to be excellent.

So far my Telcan internet and home phone are working fine except for the occasional glitz of the modem, when this happens The home phone incoming calls goes directly to the voice mail without getting a ringing sound! I always have to re-boot the system to get it working again.

Recently we had trouble with our cable connection. A Telcan team trouble shot it within 1/2 and managed to fully restore proper service. Getting ahold of them is not a problem, and the team has always been professional.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Markus. We are thrilled to hear that we were able to provide you with the internet plan of your choice at a great price, and we're proud of our team members and always happy to hear positive things about them.
I want to revise my review which I sent earlier. The company worked very hard to sort out all issues. The service is fast, reliable, and strong. I am extremely pleased with their quality and with their service and I highly recommend them.
Thank you, Telcan, for a job well done!
Although our company strives for 100% customer satisfaction, it’s clear we’ve fallen short in this instance. We've looked into your account and it seems like an isolated issue as it is not impacting all cable clients in your area. Our technicians are working to resolve the issue at the earliest. We appreciate your patience and understanding.
A representative of the company came on the appointed day to install my DSL, that I had pfreviously received. The person called first to say when he would arrive. He spent 3 hours getting it to work (at little after 9 AM to just after the noon hour)! But in the end it has worked just fine.
Thank you, Marilyn! For taking the time to write such a well-thought-out positive review of our company, We always strive to offer the best internet service at a cheaper price and we're glad that you are enjoying that
First i was hesitant to get this service, but i was wrong! Internet is stable and reliable. The wifi device is super strong and can stay connected even from the street!
I highly recommend.

About the Business
Telcan is an Ontario telecommunications company founded in 1998. We started as a platform provider of prepaid telecom services to service providers in North America. Companies currently use our infrastructure to provision prepaid long-distance, international mobile phone recharge, as well as home and business Voice-Over-IP (VOIP) services. As a result of internal restructuring, and to take advantage of recent CRTC mandates, we acquired our ISP license and launched our very own Internet and home phone service to the markets of Ontario and Quebec. We combine our experience in the telecom business with a robust and proven infrastructure, to provide high-quality internet services. OUR MISSION We strive to give Canadians access to the affordable Internet they need. We’re proud to bring Canada up to speed by providing hassle-free unlimited home Internet.
