  @TELUS @TELUSsupport Is the most frustrating & awful company to deal with. Every other utility allows you to cancel services online. I've been transferred to 3 service reps and on hold for an hour and still cannot cancel. Ridiculous! #telussucks

  @UberJumper @Rogers Honestly Rogers and Telus are such a **** show, I'm just gonna get starlink, and if they ever make a phone I'll get that too

  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).

  @CrowFavBird @Bell_Support Telus did the same thing to us last year… the people on the phone don’t understand their lost customer won’t have “future needs” for phone and internet.

  @iPixelGalaxy @TELUS Had some issues with ROGERS myself and I decided to just get a eero gateway and additional pod. If I had the money I would get the Ubiquiti Cloud Gateway and a couple PoE pods. If you have a separate modem or can put the current one in bridge mode, I suggest making your own net

  @TELUSsupport @TELUS For months I was sent promotional texts from you to switch to Fibre, yet when trying to switch in December’26 there was some issues. I finally caved & authorized the transition in July Now during the final 36 holes of the @FedExChamp I have NO 🛜 NOR CABLE! Make it make sense!

  Their service sucks because they sub contract out their technician calls to a 3 rd party contractor who has no money in the game son they don’t care. DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AVOID TELUS LIKE THE PLAGUE.

  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.

  @TELUSsupport between July 28 and today Aug 5 l have spoke to at least 8-9 Telus agents to resolve a problem . I've had agents diarize to call me back as follow up ... nothing. Any other business working like this would be bankrupt. Telus is the worst provider choice !!!

  My two biggest fears about $AMPG were the biggest MNO and the margins. That's why I lowered my exposure and positioned myself publicly for $DGXX's earnings. Yet, at these prices, AMPG is very attractive. I think this is an overreaction. It reminds me of $FLNC. Yesterday's report confirmed the "problem" with the Asian program. Last call, they said: "timing delays due to customer deployment schedules and overseas supply chain factors". Yesterday's Titan Crest filing says: "substantial delays in developing its products". That's where I suspected the $70M+ program was going to be in trouble, discussed it with my friends, and shared my insights about it. Today's call: "We do not have any cancellations of orders, or we do not have any changes in the LOIs. The forecast timing has changed". "Particularly within one of our international 5G programs. So this shift is affecting the timing on the follow-on purchase orders associated with that deployment overseas". It's a timing issue. Nobody cancelled. My conclusion is that those problems will eventually get solved, but that OREX's LOI was delayed (the biggest MNO) because Titan Crest. Who knows how long it takes. Thesis didn't change. That's exactly why they pulled guidance: because they can't date the fix. Painful, but honest. The $40M (North American MNO) program is Telus. No problems there. In fact, they've been ordering MORE than the LOI. On margins, last call they told us: "We do not expect margin improvement to be perfectly linear quarter to quarter, especially during a ramp-up phase, but improving gross margin remains one of our key operating priorities". So I understand margins will eventually climb (especially with the 64T64R and everything AI-RAN). My fear was how the market would take a margin reduction when it printed. It printed. The market did what I feared. Both things will get solved and it will stabilize. Same thing happened with Fluence. I bought at $12.60. Euphoria traders ran it to $15. That's what happened with AMPG lately. Lots of euphoria. Lots of likes. Lots of tourists. Then FLNC dropped from $15 to $10 in premarket. Everyone who read "margin cut" hit sell. Market opened. It went back to $15. Now it sits around $13, more or less stabilized. I think something similar just happened to AMPG. All that attention, all those posts with hundreds of likes... that's tourist capital. The tourists saw the margin compression and overreacted. Was it a bad earnings report? Definitely. So was Fluence's. Was it THAT bad? No. Eventually it recovers and stabilizes. And the game, same as Fluence, is watching whether the next reports recover margins and put a date on the product problem. The thesis is the same. The clock is longer. Not financial advice. Still long $AMPG. Long $DGXX. DYOR.

  @WilliamRobk Originally, March 5th 2024, they've been harassing me and threatening me since and is STILL holding my number hostage, demanding money to release it, so im paying for a 2nd line with @Eastlink and i havent had ONE single issue with them while @TELUS ONLY causes issues & trauma!

  @JayGenXer I have another year of a "contract" with @TELUS. I will be cancelling it, paying their bullshit penalty and moving to @Starlink by mid-September. I suggest every Canadian who hates this bill does the same. Once a Musk company offers cellular service, it switches too. I am so done with fascist Canada.

  @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.

  @_northwords I'm in the Sardis Library right now on 5G, with Telus no less, and I can't watch a 30-second basketball clip. I know, first world problems, but I can't access work mail in the Community Forest area. Whereas my wife had cell coverage atop Kilimanjaro and in rural China.

  I think only @koodo @TELUS has the confidence to upgrade a customer from their Basic plan to Premium plan without customer’s explicit request or customer’s knowledge. A thing called ‘Customer experience’ got no meaning 🙁 @CRTCeng

  DEAR AT&T and TELUS, Are you paying attention? A company is only as good as it's service and attention to the most remote and poorest members of its service area. (I still say the same thing about unions too). When areas in SE Alaska don't have phone and internet their lives are highly at risk. It's not just about a drop in communications, gaming, streaming movies or social media. It's a drop in safety tools for these island dwellers too. Not to mention that with millions of tourists every year robbing the locals of bandwidth with high data traffic locals end up in last place as highpaying users for lack of competition. Ketchikan’s main internet (KPU fiber via the Canada route, plus cellular from providers like GCI/AT&T) has "finite capacity". When multiple cruise ships dock and thousands of tourists flood downtown with phones and devices, and that shared bandwidth gets congested—slowing speeds for everyone. When the service is down, many local busineses lose the use of POS machines (but still pay the rent to have them). Starlink solves this in several practical ways: -independant backup, -reliable pathways and -outage resilience. Starlink is already a tremendous service for the Alaska Marine Highway System which is a class 1 essential service for SE Alaska, whereby these ferries are often the only way form of transportation between island communities for so many of these remote residents. In this age of high technology, the current tools, even with their own redundancies, just don't offer enough protections. This isn't an advertisement nor do I get paid for mentioning Starlink. But I will post pricing for SE Alaska residents because these remote areas need options: As of August 2026, Starlink’s regular U.S. Residential pricing (which applies in Southeast Alaska) is: Residential 100 Mbps: $55/month Residential 200 Mbps: $85/month Residential MAX: $130/month New customers can download the Starlink mobile app and the sign up opens on the initial screen. Competition is a beautiful thing. Just saying...

  God my internet is so slow :/ I have Telus purefibre 250 Mbps and man it is sooo slow to download games or stuff on my laptop like it takes an hour plus. tbh i kinda did forgot what internet plan i actually had (lol) but i thankfully will probably upgrade to either purefibre 1 gigabit or 1.5 gigabit and hopefully i will have much faster speeds :) and once i do that, i will only have to get an Ethernet port installed in my bedroom and then i will finally not have to worry about internet speeds again :3

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport 1 hr later no call do had to call in. The frustrating thing is that she didn't want to change anything but Telus is switching boxes, so they force her to upgrade. She told the agent that she's 84 and doesn't understand tech and they told her she'd have to pay to have someone help

  @DouglasTodd @TELUS I would argue that the immigration drove down prices. 10 years ago, I was paying 70 dollars for 1 line with a few GB of data. Today, I have two lines and 150 GB of shared data for 70 dollars.

  @MPelletierCIO 9$ target, at that point depending on what telus is doing, its an acceptable buy if they havent removed most of their old management, then its not a buy yet as they will continue to allocate capital incorrectly. It's hard to allocate capital correctly if you believe you dont need to understand how the technology works that you're managing and building. Bad Culture. Truth hurts. Telus is a dud until they clear the house

  @steeletalk 1/2 That doesn't sound like us and could be scam/phishing calls pretending to be TELUS. Check out our Call control feature that can help prevent many of these types of calls.
