  They didn’t leak passwords. They leaked something worse. Crunchyroll breach: • ~1.2M emails confirmed (subset of a larger dataset) • Third-party vendor (Telus Digital) compromised • Malware → Okta SSO → internal tools exposed (~24h access) Data taken: • Emails, names, usernames • IPs + approximate locations • Full support tickets (billing issues, chats, activity logs) That means attackers know: • Your recent support conversations • Billing disputes or issues • Account activity patterns Enough to send highly convincing phishing. Timeline: • Mar 12 → initial breach • Mar 23 → ~6.8M emails claimed • Late Mar → data sold on forums • Apr 4 → 1.2M verified (HIBP) Crunchyroll says no passwords leaked. But context > passwords. What to do: • Change password (especially if reused) • Enable 2FA (authenticator app) • Check HIBP • Watch for targeted emails/SMS This was a supply-chain breach.

  @CoryBMorgan Have any of the employees of Bell or Telus been fired yet as you can’t understand a freaken word of what they are saying to you when you need customer service? I don’t need to speak to Mary Simon as I don’t need to speak to the CEO of Air Canada. We need to choose our battles.

  @Bell_MTSHelps The Northern lights Satellite Fight Rogers played it like a chess grandmaster while Bell, MTS, and Telus fumbled around like they were playing checkers with winter mittens on. In a country as vast and rugged as Canada, where huge swaths of land have zero cell coverage, satellite-to-mobile tech is the future for keeping people connected in the bush, on the water, or up north. Rogers saw the obvious winner and jumped in early with Starlink— Elon Musk’s low-Earth orbit beast with thousands of satellites already zipping overhead. They launched Rogers Satellite in 2025, starting with reliable texting, text-to-911, and emergency alerts on regular smartphones, then rapidly added support for popular apps like WhatsApp, Google Maps, AllTrails, and Messenger. By early 2026, they expanded it coast-to-coast (covering millions more square kilometres), tossed in free trials in places like Atlantic Canada, and just days ago rolled out seamless roaming into the US via T-Mobile’s Starlink-powered setup. No special hardware, no waiting years—real connectivity, right now, with proven performance and clear momentum toward full voice/data. Smart, decisive, and customer-first. Rogers basically turned every phone into a satellite phone where towers fear to tread. Meanwhile, Bell (and its MTS arm) and Telus decided to bet big on AST SpaceMobile, a scrappy Texas startup still scrambling to get its own satellite constellation properly off the ground lol. Bell hyped a “first” demo voice call back in 2025 and promised a 2026 launch, while Telus signed on in March 2026 with some equity investment and ground infrastructure talk. Their pitch? Future broadband, voice, and data… eventually. Late 2026 at the earliest for any real rollout, with a lot of “we’re building it” vibes and fewer actual customers using it today. The contrast is brutal and hilarious. Rogers is out here actually delivering satellite connectivity today—texts, apps, cross-border roaming—while Bell, MTS, and Telus are still waving around press releases about satellites that mostly exist as PowerPoint slides and optimistic timelines. Canadians stuck in dead zones don’t want “coming soon” promises; they want a signal when their truck breaks down in the middle of nowhere. Rogers chose the proven, massive, rapidly scaling Starlink network that’s already lighting up phones across the planet. Bell and Telus? They went with the long-shot alternative that’s playing catch-up. In the race to blanket Canada with space-based mobile service, one carrier sprinted ahead with the rocket ship… and the others are still warming up the backup prop plane. Right now, the industry is laughing: “Bell and Telus picked what?” While Rogers customers are sending “I’m alive” texts from the tundra, their rivals are busy explaining why their fancy future service isn’t quite ready yet. Classic Big Telecom brain fart—overthinking it, missing the obvious winner, and handing Rogers a massive marketing and coverage edge on a silver platter. Oof. That’s gotta sting. - Grok & Ai

  @TELUSsupport we spent a total of of three hours on hold. Your reps would periodically answer & then transfer the call to another rep but no one knew how to help us. We are cancelling all our phones and homes services with you tomorrow. Worst customer support. @TELUS

  Telus Internet has no customer support. On hold for over 2 hours. Placed a callback and it disconnected. Time to go to Starlink

  @TELUS It's always amazing when your "customer care" tells you you're lying, not once, not twice but three times, when you tell them you recieved an email from Telus and then makes you sit in silence for 40 minutes only to be called a liar again and wont let you prove the email

  @VincentDynamo You can utilize the online team member chat service via your parents TELUS app. If the agent is not able to perform the transfer from post paid to pre paid via the online chat they will arrange for a team member to call you directly.

  If Telus actually was doing an iPhone air deal for my number, I’d take it if the data plan wasn’t stupid I don’t need 250GBs a month 💀 The 90GB plan I already have is too much anyway, 15GB would be fine for me

  @VanIsleInvestor Bell has endured similar issues, and cut the sacred dividend. Odds are Telus will. Management has stated deleveraging is a priority. Value trap, or invest in the turnaround ?

  We signed up for a three year contract to replace our month-to-month internet service for business effective November 28, 2025. It was our understanding that Anatoli Jr. Goriansk @TELUS the Account Manager was going to handle the switch, but for some reason he did not cancel our month-to-month service. Now our account has been suspended because of non-payment of the month-to-month service. Can you please assist. @TELUSsupport

  @Tablesalt13 So what your saying is, if we track the imie number we can link which members were doing this and if we have Telus phone records for example for the most recent hacks from the big 3 phone companies we could further narrow down providers and who specifically was abusing this. Fyi hacking is fun if used for the betterment of the country, not what they are doing.

  @NorthugCapital @BubleQe Telus still has ~ 15% down to go before I think it is fairly valued. It is still at a premium to bell.

  @TELUSsupport @TELUSsupport How come a communication hasn’t been sent out to the people affected by the random cancellation of our accounts who are unable to access the Telus app… Why are some accounts showing they’ve been cancelled and why is this company not doing anything to fix it?

  @TELUSsupport @TELUS Loyal for 15 years. Tried calling 611 with no luck, but finally got a callback after 3 days—agent had a child crying nearby, then she hung up and never called back. This is not acceptable. Escalate to a manager or retention team, or I will consider switching

  15/ So where do we land? @EconCA and I actually agree more than we disagree. The GOOD: ✅ 5G infrastructure is world-class and genuinely transforming industry ✅ Prices have dropped significantly since 2020 ✅ Tech pivots (Bell's Ateko, TELUS Health) show real innovation intent The BAD: ❌ Still an oligopoly with too much pricing power ❌ Debt-laden companies cutting jobs, not creating them ❌ Rural and Indigenous connectivity gap is a national shame ❌ CRTC regulation is too slow and too cautious #CanadaTelecom #Tech #Economy

  @tOSUWRU @AniTVOfficial Sure! Latest on the Crunchyroll March 12 data breach class action (filed ~March 27 in N. Dist. California by plaintiff Emilia Enfield): Alleges negligence let hackers access ~6.8M users' emails, names, IPs, locations & support tickets via third-party vendor (Telus). Seeks up to $25k per affected U.S. user. Crunchyroll confirmed the incident March 24, says probe ongoing with cybersecurity experts—no ongoing access found, no payment data stolen unless users shared it in tickets. No major updates since filing; case is early stage. Will flag developments.

  @TELUSsupport My Telus account that we reset etc.that was working,is no longer working. I can't notify or speak to a agent without an account. Telus makes it impossible. I need to speak with someone from Support.
