Bell Canada Good "Great company, great overall service." Bad "Sometimes handcuffed by poor CRTC regulation." Overall "If you're inside phone wiring is clean, they are a good choice."

Teksavvy DSL is a strong company with very good praise in Canada - one of the best choices you can make.
Unfortunately their ability to provide even better service is limited by CRTC regulation - at the time of review there's a hefty 100$ fee to signup for the higher speed tiers, and forced modem rental for VDSL. There are also numerous unfair advantages Bell maintains for its own customers, such as repairing indoor problems for free for some of their customers, or providing a free dry loop.
For some customers who have problems with inside wire, it may be best to bite the bullet with an evil incumbent ISP, like bell, which potentially can serve them better should they require work to be done inside the home. 15/10 VDSL is currently 15$ cheaper with Bell if you don't need teksavvy's 300gb advantage.

Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback.
While we do have limitations under the current CRTC regulations, we are always working to make sure that things change for the better for all independent ISPs and our customers. We are working on the issue of the modem rental on the 25m service and hopefully things will change.
Thank you.
