Brehs, what's a good barbershop?

Last time I went was at Onyx. That was almost 2 years though. Wait time was disgusting and the owner is the only one worth getting a cut from.

I went to th Toronto symphony orchestra a few days ago it was dope brehs. Had excellent seats and only cost me 16 bucks, as they have a program if your under 35 you can get tickets for 15. Went with my girl and she loved it.

That's great to hear. I'm going to Belshazzar's Feast on June 2 and was about to buy some expensive tickets. Great deal.

Carry Telecom - Unlimited Internet Plans, FTTN, Cable

that's what i'm looking into right now. trying to see if we have to pay extra to cancel. i think we should be able to cancel without penalties since they're raising the monthly fees

I hate Rogers so fukking much. But they're everywhere. Out of those 3 I have only heard of teksavvy. I read mainly good things about them. The whole set up is a bit pricey thou, unless you have one of the modems/routers they use.

All three of those companies use rogers' lines. I've had bad experiences with teksavvy (lots of service outages, charging me for an entire month when service was down for 2 weeks, bad customer service, billing me for overages when I monitored my own usage and teksavvy's bandwidth calculator said I didn't go over). Yeah, when you go outside of rogers, you will probably have to pay for your own modem and router. I think it's worth it though if you have unlimited bandwidth for a lower price.

Here's what I've found out so far:
1. Start probably has the best customer service. You can use your own modem and router with them. No transfer fee is needed if you're transferring from Rogers. There is a $25 installation fee.
2. Teksavvy requires you to buy their modem. If you are an existing Rogers customer, they will waive your installation fee but you will have to pay a transfer fee. You will have to buy their modem. Shipping is not included for their hardware.
3. Carry Telecom is the cheapest. $39.99 for 100/10 unlimited. No installation fee. You have to buy their modem and you can pick it up from their Vic Park/McNicoll office. Their service is not really unlimited. They have a record of throttling customers if their bandwidth reaches 1.5 TB for the month. If you use a VPN, speeds drop dramatically. They used to throttle people who were torrenting or using Kodi. They're the newest out of the three companies. There are a service outage that lasted for 2 weeks for their DSL service in January. Customer service isn't the best, you'll have to deal with customer service agents that aren't very knowledgeable if you run into problems. It's the cheapest, but expect lots of bumps because they're a new company.

I'm with robbers I think I pay like 80 a month for unlimited internet 150/15

I wish I lived in the states


Anytime I read about these second hand cable sellers on rfd folks are always saying their throttled or losing connection

At least robbers is always consistent for me the only good thing
