  @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.

  @nationalpost @financialpost Sinking billions of our tax dollars into a bubble just before it bursts isn't what Canadians want, take that money and create a public telecom like SaskTel to give Canadians a better option than the high priced garbage we get from the big 3.

  ~25 minutes ago, the Internet went down for me here; no info from @sasktel/@SaskTelSupport as to what occurred. It seems to be back now, so I'll attempt to start at 9:50 p.m. MDT. Sorry. 😑🙏🏻🎶

  @JBMcAdams @SaskTel @bellmts is no better on the Manitoba side of the border. Coverage is intermittent from Russell to Bunge and then basically nonexistent to the border. So if the reason is that the coverage can’t cross the border then why do we pay for service that does not exist

  @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!

  And I did contact SaskTel support - they were not aware of any recent issues. Family members are receiving phishing emails this eeek.

  SaskTel technicians have been dispatched to resolve the outage, however, there currently is no estimated time of repair. #skoutage

  @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

  Crews will continue to work on repairs to SaskTel’s fibre transport infrastructure throughout the weekend. However, there continues to be considerable risk for further interruptions to SaskTel Internet, Wireless and/or Landline (Home Phone and Business Phone) service due to ongoing fire activity and the nature of repairs involved.

  @PremierScottMoe your budget should have put @sasktel in its place for being a degenerate crown Corp and charging service users more while they get services reduced.
