Tuckersmith Communications Co-operative Ltd plans to decommission their email service at the end of October 2026. That means customers using a TCC email address will have to switch to another email service.

I am happy to assist people with this process, however I am receiving many phone calls so it may be a while before I get to you. In the meantime you are perfectly good to continue with your TCC email until such time as we can make the transition.

I recently had a phone call that played a recording telling me that Bell was in the process of upgrading the Internet lines to fibre optic. I was told that they would replace my existing router and that I could "press 1" to talk to a rep to setup a time for this.

This is a scam. Bell will not call about replacing your equipment as there is no need for this. If Bell or any other company contacts you out of the blue, I would always suggest calling them back on their offical phone number to be safe.

AI is not quite ready to fix computer problems so it is likely better to seek a professional if you need help. I recently had a customer attempt to deal with a computer problem using AI suggestons and it did not go well at all :(

Time for my regular reminder that backups are very important!

If you have any files on your computer or smart phone that you would not want to lose then you need to have a back up routine in place.

I personally prefer a cloud backup as it is the safest and most effective method . I currently use a service called iDrive which allows me to back up all my computers and phones for one yearly fee.

If you sign-up with the link below I can assist in the configuration and monitoring of your backup. Contact me if you have any questions.

Online Backup - Enterprise Class Cloud Backup for PCs, Macs, Servers, Laptops, NAS and Mobile Devices

I often get calls about fake Facebook accounts. When your your Facebook friends start getting invites from a Facebook account that is not yours, it is because an account was created with the same name as your own account which is quite easy to do.

It is not a "hack" as your own Facebook account is still secure, so it is not necessary to change your password. Report the fake account to Facebook and have your friends report it as well. You can post something on your feed warning people not to accept any friend requests from this fake account.

How do you manage your Facebook friends? Do you keep your list really tight and only include ‘active’ pals? Or do you accept everyone you’ve ever laid

If you are finding your computer a bit slow these days but do not have the budget for a new computer, there are alternatives.

For $180 I can clean-up and upgrade an older computer to perform much faster. The key is replacement of the older hard drive technology with a newer solid state drive.

Call or message for more details or to make an apppointment!

A word of advice: ALWAYS have your passwords written down somewhere!

A shocking number of people do not remember their passwords and never wrote them down :(
