  @usagiPild Yo is there an outage at home for Sasktel?

  @MelissaLMRogers @TELUSsupport It's a monopoly. Just like grocery. Everything has been monopolized. There's no competition to drive it down. Saskatchewan I believe has cheaper prices because sasktel is competition

  @fanCRTCProfling Some of that will be remote locations. Land costs should actually be lower than average because the towers are going up on cheap or free land. (ie. White Fox tower went up on Sasktel's lot it already owned for the service shed) So that makes it even more suspect.

  @emmagmay @Rogers Roger’s is horrible. We had Shaw fit fibre which wasn’t great but Rogers is WAY WAY WAY worse. Switching to Sasktel ASAP!

  @ExnerPirot I'll fill you on this Heather. I've been a Sasktel customer for my Home, Business, internet and cell phone FOREVER. I've never once tried to price out other companies WHY? My kids, and other close relatives constantly are jumping for one company to another and constantly complain about service prices etc etc when they leave. I've never had an issue with Sasktel that caused me reason to leave. Customer service still counts as first priority for many people.

  @VentureAgri @SaskTel Its way worse. I've got cell boosters where we use phones for correction signals. Dont think anything would work if it wasn't for that. Have you had problems with modems getting signals?

  @SaskTelSupport Wow, thanks Sasktel for providing no reason for this outage. Come on people. I'm a home-based business and I get that things happen, but this was terrible public relations.

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

  @ctvsaskatoon Great work to all involved! Rather than asking if and when it should be built they had us fighting over who “funds it”. They forced this along because the RICH in Saskatoon benefit. Not you, never you! You just pay for their wealth! No act is avoiding us because of Sasktel Ctr

  @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.
