A couple of my friends have acanac and they are very satisfied with it.
The best part is that acanac gives unlimited downloads.

According to them the switch over can be troublesome

If u a new signup Acanac gives 1 year free home phone.

I have setup for switchover next month as rogers has a 30 day notice.

One thing is get the highest posible speed because they ship u a docisis 3.0 modem which is never tech and is faster even during network congestion.

Thanks for the info . DWMC . Appreciated the tip as well .

I have been with Acanac earlier but may be it was my router , but my experience was a bit blow hot blow cold kinds .....

I am thinking of trying Teksavvy now - although a better bargain will win ...

Any Teksavvy users on the forum - please share your experience as well ....

I have used teksavvy for over 2 years now, they will not give you any bargain other than what is on their website.
But I have very positive experience with their service. They don not throttle bendwidth like others (rogers, bell, Acanac).

I have read on other forums that Acanac's billing department is in Iran. Don't know what is happening these days with west trying to economically cut off Iran.

Teksavvy prides itself as being a Canadian company. Customer service is much better than Acanac(Bell owned).

Hi,
I have used Acanac when it use to be cheaper in the first year, and for that price it was an OK provider. I then moved to TekSavvy, and I must say they were awesome, very good service, their agent were very clear and they will tell truth about speed etc. I was on dry loop (broadband), then I moved to 'Distributel' cable, reason for shift was that it was just a tad cheaper and a bit higher speed. But +1 for Teksavvy.
Thanks,
~K
