Why can't I access my account?

I have tried to access my account for months now. All I ever get is  " wait while we retrieve your account information ". Well, I'm still waiting ! Your web site is so frustrating; nothing on it works properly. I've recently changed my whole programming, but it's impossible to see my bill. I'd like to be able to see it a few days before it is due so I have those days to get it through my bank. Then perhaps I won't  be charged  by Shaw as has  happened .    Jean Alton

Hey jeanalton,

Thank you for reaching out! I am sorry for the delay in response. The forums aren't monitored as closely as our other support channels. I am very sorry to hear of your frustrations. I'd recommend reaching out to customer support if you are still experiencing some troubles accessing your account online.

Cheers,

Tony | Community Mod.

@Nancy2 are you seeing the same error message? I haven't seen any other reports of this problem. Can you try opening it in another browser or through the MyShaw App?

am experiencing the same issue today on both my.shaw.ca and the My Shaw App where I receive an error message... I have exhausted all options/performed tests (as per suggestions posted re: this issue on several threads) all to no avail: refreshing the my.shaw.ca page, closing & restarting the My Shaw app, restarting both my PC & Cell, creating a new Shaw ID & attempting to sign in with that, selecting 'desktop site' vs. mobile, using an up-to-date version of Chrome, Firefox, IE and even the Samsung Internet App, ran a few tests on my Wifi connections (all is working per usual), etc., etc., etc.

@tessies -- from your list, you seem to have tried everything other than contacting Shaw (online-chat or telephone) to see if there is a problem at their end with your Shaw account.  Have you been paying your monthly Shaw bills?

Can you get a friend to try to logon to My Shaw with their ID/password on your computer? (Of course, they should logout when done.)

Or, can you logon to My Shaw with your ID/password on their computer?

@Nancy2 -- you will receive this message only after submitting a valid "Shaw ID" and its correct password.

 

So, what device (iPad, Apple notebook, PC notebook, PC desktop, smart-phone) are you using?

Presumably, you have the current version of the Operating System for your device. Correct?

What web-browser are you using?

Presumably, you have the current version of whatever web-browser for your device. Correct?

Do you have an alternate web-browser to try?

If you logon to My Shaw on a friend's computer, does that message get replaced (after 5 to 10 seconds) by your account information?

If everything above is OK, then contact Shaw (online chat or telephone), because the problem must be at their end.

You seem to have tried everything that is possible, other than contacting Shaw (www.shaw.ca/chat) or 1-888-472-2222.

It's been a while. Do you still have the problem? 

Have you been paying your Shaw invoices at your bank, by having the teller debit your account, and, of course, crediting Shaw?
