  @TELUS @TELUSsupport I WILL be escalating. Cause I have gotten zero resolution in a company I have been with for 20+ years. FIX THIS NOW.

  @Cat4714 @Martyupnorth @Bell Telus is worse. Hubby was paying over $100. Had a special for seniors we could get for US/Mex calling. Down to $45/mo but on phone for over 1 hour. I'm sure call was to india celebrating daliwall in background. Painful

  Haven’t had a family doctor for over five years now. 🇨🇦 Try to sign up with some online company called Maple: sure no problem, take all my info….then they hit you with “join for $85 / mth.” Try sign up with Telus MyHealth: sure no problem, take all your info…no appointments available. Checked three months out. Canadian health care is so bad. Our BC government runs >$10B deficit, yet outcomes are simply terrible. Luckily, I live near Washington USA. Maybe I’ll just get a doctor down there to finally see how expensive it really is (or is not).

  @cyberlander_ @TELUS No, I use shaw at home for internet. This is for our business lines and internet where the problems are occurring. They fcked up our transition from copper to fibre optic, which they asked for, and now I'm dealing with their incompetence.

  @TELUSsupport I returned my telus equipment at Canada post a few minutes back after cancelling my internet service. I was told that it may take upto several weeks as they have heavy backlog at Canada post. Pls. Share the Cust.service email to share the Canada post receipt.

  Telus come get your equipment. This entire worst customer service experience has been going on now for a week. They cancelled our service when they were told not to? they had us on hold for over 2 hours & now this. This is the problem when a company has a monopoly

  @Bell You have proved time and again that you don't actually care. The DM's go nowhere, solve nothing, and never escalate things to where they need to be. Pretending to ride in on white horse going "WELL ACTUALLY!" doesn't help. I gave up using Bell in favor of the slightly less horrid Telus, and at least I can get service when I call them. Hell, even that reply sounds like it was AI written. I have zero faith in your company left, and at 41 I hold a long grudge. It would take something significant to change my mind, after the hell you caused me.

  John Iosifov ✨💥 Ender Turing | AiCMO (@johniosifov) reported 28 minutes ago

  Three things contact center leaders are measuring instead of deflection: **1. Resolution quality score** — Did the customer's problem actually get solved? Not "was the call ended" but "did the issue recur within 7 days?" **2. Post-interaction sentiment delta** — How did the customer feel after AI vs. human? TELUS found that proactive AI outreach (before the customer calls to cancel) had sentiment scores 34% higher than reactive deflection. **3. Revenue at risk per interaction** — Tag calls by customer segment. A 3-year enterprise contract holder calling about billing deserves a different AI routing decision than a trial user with a password reset.

  @TELUSsupport Acct 126969708-2, 604-522-1778. Your letter says Telus will stop my service Aug 10. Now Aug 13, not stoped. Pease give the exact date my service will stop? Or will my service continue until end of my contract in May 2027? Thanks. Vladimir (for Silvia Fabry)

  Northwest B.C. cannot continue to be one cut cable away from losing critical communications. Following yet another widespread telecommunications outage on August 2, reportedly caused by copper cable theft, I have written to the Minister of Citizens’ Services asking what the Province is doing to improve the resilience and reliability of our telecommunications infrastructure. When these outages happen, the consequences go far beyond inconvenience. Residents can lose access to emergency information, businesses can’t process transactions, families can’t communicate, and entire communities can be left without reliable access to essential services. After the major outage in May, my office raised concerns with both TELUS and the Province about the lack of redundancy in Northwest B.C. and asked what was being done to prevent another widespread disruption. Months later, we are still waiting for meaningful answers, and now it has happened again. Copper theft is a growing problem, but whether an outage is caused by theft, wildfire, severe weather or infrastructure failure, our communities should not be left so vulnerable to a single point of failure. I’m asking the Province for clear answers on redundancy, infrastructure investment, emergency connectivity, and what steps are being taken with telecommunications providers to ensure Northwest communities can stay connected when something goes wrong. Reliable telecommunications are essential infrastructure, and Northwest B.C. deserves the same level of reliability and resiliency as the rest of the province.

  @L9FRIENDLYSTYLE Maybe not, we'll see eventually. Court concluded BMI didn't have an unrestricted right to the Zillnk IP when it transferred it onward. There's a reason why the Telus relationship slipped by a couple of months, so far nothing mentioned as to why it slipped except "Titan shipments were delayed." Isn't it odd that the BMI - Titan - AMPG transfer happened the same day, AMPG claiming good faith, not knowing the IP was in arbitration? Good faith might be true. But imo that's a display of extraordinary bad due diligence from ampg "we didn't know about the arbitration." It might be a winner down the road, they got orders and multiple legs of their business to carry them. This Telus leg, related to the Titan IP transfer is looking weak at the moment though. No matter how many orders been placed, being able to deliver is what matters.

  @VeeVeeFreeFox It’s just like when I called Telus for support. I keep hanging up and recalling until I have somebody speaking English clear enough I can understand them.

  @Clayton37808570 Regarding conviction of MNO’s this is too simplistic. You have multiple buckets: Early die hards > AT&T, Vodafone, Bell, Rakuten, TIM These MNO’s basically co-engineered the Spacemobile solution. STC was late, but commited 1 billion of revenue as Saudi sovereign solution so I think they also fall in this bucket. Late followers that evaluated both in detail with non public roadmap for Starlink and AST Spacemobile and chose AST > Verizon, Telus, Orange, Telefonica, Axian. Next you have a big bucket of optionality ****’s like you indicate, but that bucket is under heavy pressure to make a choice. Maximum optionality is a nice buzz word, but in reality they have to chose between an architecture that is competing with them, versus one that is supporting them. On paper a strong line up, but Starlink and Amazon will be competing systems. Equatys, Iridium niche constellations not optimized fot consumer broadband. So if you wat a friendly solution there is only one choice. Deutsche Telekom is the study case of my thesis.

  It is shameful that during fire evacuations that the cell service providers cannot provide better service throughout the valley in the safe areas. From Enderby to Cherryville to Okanagan Falls, two bars is not sufficient let family know we are ok. Do better! @Telus @Bell @Rogers

  As a Saskatchewan resident, I never expected to be contemplating switching to Rogers Wireless. But @Bell, your latest decision to cap the amount of data one can use on hotspot in a month is downright boneheaded and @TELUS is no better (having made the same decision).

  @FrankP9915 @JohnRustad4BC This isn't true. Canada has similar problems as US healthcare does post Covid. Private telecoms have the worst service. Sasktel at least has far superior service and prices to that of Bell, Telus, etc.

  It turns out the two days before the Summerland fire, the Penticton city council demanded Rogers and Telus to update the horrible cell phone coverage. Neither the Eby or Carney govts even bothered to respond. Now there’s 12,000 Summerland residents in Penticton trying to get information on the fire and power outage and evacuation. There’s a massive bottleneck now and getting service is intermittent, at best. Where are the temporary cell towers? Total govt incompetence and mismanagement of the entire situation.
