“Great service, Never had a single issue with my internet. I have Novus Phone, TV, and internet services with Novus. Professional customer service, they always follow up and call you back. I don’t think other providers do it, but they send out courtesy calls before your contract ends. No hidden fees. Their installation is also FREE of charge. Year-round promotions and they consistently provide great offers. GO FOR IT.”

“I’ve been using Novus for more than two years, and the price and quality are the best in Vancouver. Not to mention the excellent customer service, which usually takes a few minutes and always solves my problem right away. I recommend it to all my friends, and I hope more companies like that come to Vancouver.”

“Novus is amazing! First of all, they have great prices. But their service is fantastic as well. My internet stopped working today. When I called in, the agent was extremely patient with me and tried different solutions, but unfortunately, it just didn’t work. She was able to get the technician to fit me in today (on a weekend) just 2 hours later, and he fixed the problem right away. He didn’t even have to come into my unit. Thank you!”

Frequently asked questions about Novus
Can I get Novus Internet in other parts of Canada?
Unfortunately, no. Novus Internet is only available in the Vancouver area, and it’s only available to tenants of select apartment complexes and condo buildings. This means it’s impossible to access this service if you live in other parts of Canada or a detached home.
Do I have to install the equipment myself, or will a technician come to my home?
You get a free installation service when purchasing a Novus internet plan with a router. You do not have to bother about installing your equipment yourself.
Do I have to pay to cancel my internet?
That depends on whether you’re signed up for a one-year plan. If you’re on a month-to-month contract, you won’t have to pay to cancel your internet.
Does Novus have any promotions or discounts?
Novus runs several promotions and discounts all through the year. For example, when you refer a friend to Novus, you and your friend get one month of free internet service each. Each product comes with special promos and discounts. You can reach out to customer support for assistance.
