Everything about Start is good, speeds are terrific, prices are good and they have unlimited plans now.
Only have pre-authorized billing.
Excellent IISP, I would highly recommend them to anyone.

I really haven't had to have any contact with Start.ca after get my internet set up. This is the way it should be. The initial order had some issues as I was bringing my own modem and I guess the support staff got confused. I wish they had unlimited bandwidth options and options to pay your bill yourself instead of pre-authorized payments. Other than that, my speeds have been consistent and my connection has always been up.

Update: Figured I'd give this an update. I really still haven't had to contact Start. They now have unlimited bandwidth options available which is nice but still only use pre-authorized billing unfortunately. I have never really had any issue with my speeds or my connection other than when there was scheduled maintenance and we'd get notified in advance.

They don't have very many speed tiers available yet unfortunately. I'm on RCable with them and they highest speed tier available is 60/10, this isn't their fault as they are currently waiting on a decision about rates. Hopefully they will be able to offer some higher speed tiers with unlimited at a reasonable price soon. In the mean time, I would still definitely recommend Start.ca to everyone.

60/10 Unlimited Usage - $80 + tax ($90.40)
