  @BryceMorland1 @SaskTel @PremierScottMoe Once we got back to the cabin it was going across the television. But nothing on our phones. The cell tower gets overloaded at the lake in the summer and the service is terrible.

  @DPWeatherald @LangbankPlayer 1. Ask yourself why the shape of the SaskTel cellular map hasn’t changed much in 10 years? They’ve built the network out to (more or less) where the people are. (Existing coverage has been densified to improve data. Eg 5G). /2

  @sasktel has ripped off SK residents for years now. Price hikes and service cuts has been the norm for too long! Time for action @PremierScottMoe fire the top brass and reduce rates for customers of this essential service provider!!!

  @bgdoane @SaskTel Put your phone back to LTE/3G. We have to and it works much better. 5G is terrible here.

  @alaylm85 @BladesHockey The Blades are a better road team, not sure why but they never do well at SaskTel Center.

  Starlink made deal with Sasktel,a crown corp. Sasktel will manage account and can demand service cancelled. Sounds to me like a foundation for a blackout if Sask rise up against the gov. Know this, We can still deal with Starlink direct and bypass the Crown for now. see 👀👇

  @SaskTelSupport @SaskTel So wouldn’t you think that service should be better because it’s sparce incase you need to contact someone! Phone is not the problem!! There’s always talk of all the new 5G upgrades and we don’t even have service!

  @alexmarz @SaskTel @Telesat Yes they should definitely wait, continue to use extremely slow or no internet, because using starlink hurts some troll’s feelings. Starlink has been a game changer for people who’ve never had access to real high speed internet. No one will choose to pay more $$ for Telesat.

  Does anyone else in border communities have **** cell phone service ? We are 4 miles from border and 4 miles to a @SaskTel cell phone tower and for the last week we’ve had to go to the house to send a text ? Theory is that neither of cell providers want to cross the border
