Bell Fibe TV

[SkyRider]

Anybody have any experience with Bell Fibe TV? How does it work? What channels do you get? What is the quality of the reception? What is the pricing structure?

Why not call Bell and ask them? or check their website to start...http://fibetv.bell.ca/en/features/introduction/

Yes, Bell is starting a roll out across Toronto as they move from high density condo's to local neighborhoods. It's coming to my street soon and I too want an objective opinion. At minimum I want to know how I can play Bell and Rogers off to get the best and cheapest HD TV plans.

I've had it for a while (or the roll-out version Bell Entertainment). Good selection of channels, HD is clear. Some older shows on non-hd did seem a bit choppy to me but either it's gotten better or I'm used to it. Internet speed is great with the TV on or not (I would think that your speed would depend on your location wrt the hub - I receive slightly higher speed than I pay for) . They also did a good job of expanding their offerings as they came available.

Playing bell and rogers against each other? Good luck with that.

I was hoping to get some unbiased feedback from my fellow Terbites before calling Bell directly.

Was thinking about it myself, but balked at the idea after a friend of mine has had nothing but trouble with his. He's on his third modem and counting since November. Give them another year for testing.

This not good news. I am currently with Rogers and the service is working fine although there have been the occasional glitches.

How does it work, Pricing structure and channels available are questions easily answered by Bell reps or shown at the website. Reception may not even be an issue as it is digital and you need to check if it is available in your area (postal code check probably) and I think it depends on equipment (modem) more than 'reception'.... so who's the fuckwit really?

LOL

I had it when it was in testing as Bell Entertainment System. It was an amazing product with a great PVR and fast internet speeds. I had to stop it as I moved.. I would have gotten it in my new place if it had been available.

There's something about the word "Fibe" that grates on me. Just can't understand how it made it through the focus groups.

They were installing the upgrade for it in my building. It's supposed to be better than digital cable.

It's German for "vibe". No just kidding, but I'm sure the focus group said that it's a word that easy to remember, relevant to fibre optic source technology, and has some buzz to it.

Gotta love this marketing shit.
