  Please be aware that not all of these communities have been directly impacted by the fires themselves, or are currently under threat of wildfire. In some cases, SaskTel transport facility damage has led to these outages. #skoutage

  @ExnerPirot @JeffCallaway Sasktel is a terrible example. A government monopoly more wasteful and less accountable than a private regulated option.

  @bgdoane @SaskTel On a neighbors farm you can see the cell tower 6 miles straight north and they have no service in their yard. It's not going to be long until we all will be using starlink phones and cell towers will go the way of the party line IMO

  @SaskTelSupport — hi there, do you have representatives from Sasktel out in Swift Current today regarding updating/upgrading the internet due to service complaints? Just want to make sure this isn’t a scam!

  @Acadiegirl1755 Came here from Tristin's re-post of mine! I'm a Saskabusher also...my hubby & I have been with Lüm for a few years & love it. It cut our cell bill in more than half. It isn't a fit for everyone as it depends on how you most use it (cals/text/data etc) but you can do a cost calculator on their website to figure out if it's a benefit for you. They're technically owned by Sasktel but are a separate entity. One downside - all digital, tech support is via electronic messaging with a rep (a real person just no phones or stores), but the rare issue we have is still resolved quickly & easily. I got my mom on it too, saved her a ton also.

  @stroeder7 @stacres @SaskTel You guys should take a look at public mobile. 1/3 of the price of Sasktel and takes 2 minutes to set up. All done through the app. Very simple so contract can cancel anytime

  @SaskTel hey, I’m trying to log into Sportsnet Now via my Sasktel login but it says the Blue Jays game isn’t included with my subscription? It’s what I used the entire year last year, and my TV package is exactly the same. Has something changed? Thx
