May 4,2022.

I have been trying to contact Shaw direct for the last 4 days.

Logging into my account the Chat button does not work at all. The phone

number states " higher than usual call volume" therefore go online to Chat

which does not work. (Catch 22).  Impossible to contact them.

The service is totally disfunctional. I have decided to cancel entirely and will

stop all payments to Shaw. Perhaps that will get them to get in touch with

me so I can cancel the service properly!

(1) They are not serving the phone line and refer you to the online chat

(2) the online chat does not work

(3) goto one above

@johnnie52 --   I have decided to cancel entirely and will stop all payments to Shaw.

If you signed a two-year Value Plan, you agreed to pay a cancellation fee, for each month remaining in the two-year contract, and you agreed to make the monthly payments.  Not making payments will cause Shaw to send your account to a Collection Agency, and may hurt your Credit Rating.

But, contact Telus. Several times, they have offered to "buy me out", giving me $20/month in "Telus Credit" for each remaining month, if I switch to Telus.  At Telus, you will get a "promotional" rate for a year or two. Nice!

They will not answer the phone and chat does not work, it gets an error message. I waited over 90 minutes, no answer.

OI would never advise anyone to deal with Shaw,they are a terrible company!  I have tried now for four months to cancel my service as I sold the house, no luck. 
I have told several would be clients and they have gone with other service providers, I suggest others never give Shaw a chance, they will drive you crazy

@Danbell -- nice rant.

Just wait until your Shaw account is transferred to Rogers, now that Rogers is taking-over Shaw Communications.  

P.S. Shaw is not accepting new account subscriptions; any "new" customer will be referred to talk to Rogers, as part of the "transition" from Shaw to Rogers.

 

I have tried now for four months to cancel my service as I sold the house, no luck. 

Strange.  One telephone-call to Shaw [1-888-472-2222] should be enough to cancel. What response(s) did you get when you talked to Shaw, either on the telephone, or in person at one of their store-fronts ?
