pixelling (is that even a word?) issue with all channels in Duncan, BC

Not sure if you received any comments/complaints, but every channel (in Duncan, BC) have been really choppy for the last few hours.  Is it just a weather issue, as it is really raining here
Either way...just thought I would say something, if it wasn't brought up already

Channels briefly stalling too in North Van. Varies from channel to channel. Any word, Shaw, on what's going on or how long it will last?

Same problems in Saskatoon.  Big night of UFC fights on PPV and I sure hope they get their stuff fixed before the PPV or there's going to be a lot of people demanding a refund.  Maybe a big financial hit will motivate Shaw to actually investigate what it will take to provide a reliable and stable service?  Funny, they can't seem to provide stable and reliable service and equipment so they decide to get into the cell phone business.  Must be following Apple's business plan.

The picture in Squamish is pixilated and blacking out over and over on both TV's, so it's obviously a Shaw problem...when are you going to fix this...I can barely stand to watch TV, it's so annoying. This better get fixed soon, or I'm going to freak out!!!!

I figured that since I was quite critical of Shaw I owe them a big pat on the back and a WELL DONE message.  They appear to have resolved the drop outs, pixilating, etc in time for the UFC preliminaries which means the PPV should be good to watch, too.  Thank you Shaw for saving the night of watching fights with the boys!
