Service Inquiry

At Startec, it is our policy to offer exceptional multilingual service support to all customers. If you have questions or concerns about your service we look forward to hearing from you.

Service Inquiry Escalation Procedure:


  • Level 1: Contact Startec Customer Service via telephone at 1-877-882-1111 or by email at customercare@startec.com
  • Level 2: Escalate your complaint to a Startec Customer Service Supervisor or contact the Commissioner for Complaints for Telecommunications Services (CCTS) 
  • Level 3: Write a letter or email to the Startec Customer Relations Department

Level 1

Most customer inquiries can be solved quickly by simply calling our customer service department or by sending an email to customercare@startec.com. However, some requests require further investigation and may require more time to resolve. If your inquiry cannot be immediately answered by customer service, we will endeavor to address and resolve it within 1 to 2 business days. Pending inquiries will be tracked by your account number or registered phone number. Customer service hours of operation are from 9:00 am to 12:00 am ET Monday through Friday, and 9:00 am to 7:30 pm ET Saturday and Sunday.


Our toll-free telephone number is 1-877-882-1111

Our email address is customercare@startec.com


Level 2

If you feel your inquiry was not satisfactorily addressed by the customer care department, you may request that your issue be escalated to a Startec Customer Service Supervisor. To do this simply call our customer service department at 1-877-882-1111 and ask to speak to a supervisor. After reviewing and investigating your inquiry the supervisor may take up to 1 to 2 business days to contact you with a resolution. 

Or, you can contact the Commissioner for Complaints for Telecommunications Services (CCTS), an independent agency whose mandate from the CRTC is to resolve complaints of individual and small business customers about their telecommunications services (acting as an ombudsman). If you have a dispute about your telephone, wireless, or Internet service, you must first try to resolve it directly with your service provider. If you have done so and have been unable to reach a satisfactory resolution, CCTS may be able to help you, free of charge. 

To learn more about CCTS, you may visit its website at www.ccts-cprst.ca or call toll-free at 1-888-221-1687.


Level 3

Customers may also choose to send a letter or email detailing the inquiry to our Customer Relations Department for follow-up. 


The mail address is:

Startec Global Communications

PO Box 1287

Toronto, ON M4P 3E5


The email address is: customercare@startec.com


Please include your name, registered phone number, Startec account number, and the nature of your inquiry as well as the best way (phone, email etc.) to reach you in case we need to contact you for more information.
