Whatever you do, DON'T GO FOR THIS DEAL! Read the threads on this company. They are a total scam. You've been warned. If you do go for this, change your credit card immediately afterwards. They charged me TWICE, two years in a row for a service I had already cancelled. Beware. My advice? Run the other way.

I've been using them for the last 2 yrs along with their VOIP service. Excellent deal, good service. Just be aware that this price is for the first year only then AUTOMATICALLY jumps to about $40/month  unless you notify them to cancel several months before the end of the first year.

This is THE best deal for unlimited bandwidth. I have nothing bad to say except they use Bell's network which gets throttled during peak times. I am currently trying to figure out ssh tunneling to get around the throttling.

Even at the higher, non-introductory price they are the best deal for unlimited downloads... just double check your credit card statement since they seem to have sloppy accounting practices.

I guarantee that if you take this deal, you will regret it. Those are my last words on it. You have been warned!

"they seem to have sloppy accounting practices." ???? They are outright crooks.

Mods: I would strongly suggest to delete this thread. The good members of PN don't know what they are in for if they sign up with these crooks.
Freya, don't take this personally. I don't go off on rants too often but this company is definitely a company to stay away from. Don't anyone say you weren't warned.

When I wrote that they appeared to have sloppy accounting practices it was based on another person's comments and not from my own experience. 
Acanac has served me well for two years. Do not worry about being double billed, I'm sure that that's an anomaly and easily corrected with one phone call to Acanac  or your credit card company.

Being a DSL provider they are not as speedy as cable but they are for sure the best value and their service has been exemplary.

Acanac seems to be a major advertiser for PN as their banner appears everywhere on the site.

I was paying almost $100/ month for an unlimited business Videotron account until I discovered Acanac. They are much slower but much cheaper also...and very reliable with zero downtime since I signed on.

Sincerely,
RSole
CEO Acanac, lol

Caveat emptor.

I can't use these guys anyways as I am not in Ontario or Quebec so I wasn't sure about the service. I think this is like many other companies; some people have good experiences and some don't. Just the way it goes....

This thread is from my original post here at PN.

Here is the more recent post in the forums. This isn't just a complaint, people. It's a scam bordering on criminal. You have no recourse with acanac. If you go with them, prepare to be burned :

I'm okay with leaving this thread here. I heard a few bad things about Acanaca but this thread helps remind me how bad they are...

This thread is useful cause it lets readers know the opinions of others... if its removed, they might just sign up without knowing what issues others have suffered.

Hmm, Toronto2001, I read your previous thread which also explained why the Acanac ad is always staring me in the face though they have maltreated members here. I guess I have been one of the lucky ones with them. When my intro year is up I will shop around. Thanks for the warning. Caveat emptor indeed.

I agree Urban, this way people can read the thread and then decide for themselves what they want to do. Does anyone know of a cheaper internet service though? I Know where I live there aren't any available but sometimes companies leak into where I live a year or two later.

Good point, Urban.

Freya, this is the cheapest you can get. I don't have an argument with the first year service. The problem is only with the billing AFTER the first year. If you change your credit card, as in renew it or just ask for a new one with a different expiry date, you'll be fine. Cancel your first year a month or two before it ends, set up with Teksavvy (strongly recommended) and then acanac can't rebill you for the expensive second year. They don't send an email when they renew your account, even though they say they do. They just go ahead and bill you for the full second year. In my case, they did this TWO YEARS IN A ROW, even though I had cancelled the service at the end of the first year. God, this brings back some bad memories! Check out Teksavvy Freya, and see if they are in your area.
