  @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.

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

  @SaskTel Well, I appreciate your reply. I know it's only lip service. I've been talking to Sasktel about this for years. Our complaints simply aren't going to cause you to build more towers or upgrade current ones. That's the only fix for this.

  @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.

  @SaskTel increasing phishing and spam since you contracted out your email service. Come on - you CAN DO BETTER. Was better when you hosted things yourself - filters were effective!! Tired of the spam getting through!!!

  @kirkrussell4 @flipkoin2 Lüm mobile runs on Bell's network outside of Saskatchewan, but the profits go back to the provincially owned, SaskTel. Support the people of Saskatchewan who kept public ownership.

  This is a terrible decision for Canadian privacy and internet sovereignty. @sasktel should wait for @Telesat #skpoli
