    @AmazingZoltan @VanceYung_73 Telus customer service has been extra terrible over the past few years...not much better than Rogers.

    Just got a call back. Pressed 1 three separate times to accept the callback and your automated service hung up on me to try again later. This is absolutely a joke at this point. Nothing works at Telus. I can’t cancel my services cleanly. Can’t get thru. Callback not working

  • tegufy_news
    Tegu breaking news. (@tegufy_news) reported

    A fibre cut has left Telus customers in several northern B.C. communities without internet, TV, home phone, and wireless services. The outage, affecting areas such as Masset and Prince Rupert, is due to vandalism, according to Telus. The company has not yet provided an estimated time of repair.

    @Shawhelp Thanks. I have been trying to use the chat since 9AM. The auto log out feature every 10 minutes is brutal when you have to hold for support for at least hours. The only reason I stayed with Shaw is because you have had better support than Telus, historically.

    @TELUSsupport Hi Telus support! I cancelled tv and Internet in Jan 26 and you just charged me for equipment not being returned. Canada post shows it returns to you with signature on 26 Jan 26. We need to remove the cancellation charges please.

    @TELUS @TELUSsupport why does your network suck *** the last 4 days? Please don’t respond with “restart your phone” or “have you called Telus support”

    @MrStache9 Much as I'd love to make the switch, the upload speed is no good for my use case. I'm getting 900+Mbps up/down on Telus. It ain't cheap though. $170/mo after tax for unlimited usage. And boy howdy, do I use it. a couple TB/month up and down.

    @TELUSsupport You know what? Enough of your bs apologies. Canadians want you to answer the phones, provide good service & to hire locals. Simple stuff! #telus

    @cdntradegrljenn I'm on a $50/mo unlimited plan with Rogers that includes no roaming charges. Absolutely NONE! Longtime Telus customer and they couldn't give me free roaming. Rogers is the devil but Telus got to $17/day for roaming.

    There must be a way to sue @telus for the piss poor stream vs advertised. What a ******* joke.

    Frustrated about Telus customer service. After they acquired ADT they don’t know how to restore a portal password. 7 hours on the phone with 9 different agents over the last 30 days No one knows how to do it. @TELUS @TELUSsupport @TELUSBusiness

    The sound is all ****** up on the @TELUS TV app and @Sportsnet plus doesn’t want to work either. For what I pay for this **** I’m very unimpressed

    @TELUS It seems you just want the public to see your trying to help ppl on here. The reality is you do nothing.

    @Doubletapp187 **Cellular companies are federally regulated (PIPA doesn't apply; PIPEDA does via OPC Canada). They serve many Alberta customers.** Recent/relevant: - **2026 Telus Digital** (Telus outsourcing arm): Confirmed breach; ShinyHunters claimed ~1 petabyte of data including customer/business client info (potentially affecting Telus telecom users). - **2026 Rogers/Fido**: Alleged breach; 10.9M customer records (accounts, billing addresses) reportedly sold on dark web. - **Bell Canada**: 2017 (~1.9M customer emails/phone numbers); 2018 (100k); 2024 (2.2M data leak). Older incidents exist too. Full details via OPC Canada reports. If notified, monitor accounts/credit. OIPC Alberta site won't list these.

    Why won’t @TELUS step up to buy the club? They have the money and would be celebrated as community heroes for decades to come. International profile. Customer base explosion. They can write off losses in the down years. #VWFC #SaveTheCaps

    @IgorRyltsev Looks like the Neanderthal works for Telus maybe? Regardless, leave the kids out of it. Why traumatize them with CPS? ******* idiot.

  • ConwayWStern
    Victor Conway (@ConwayWStern) reported

    @endthehkylckout @yonkojohn First off, you're a moron. I've been through these buyouts from both Shaw and telus in the past. They will get the 12k employees off their payroll. You have no idea what you're talking about, and should probably just log off for the day lest others think you're an idiot too.

    @Tablesalt13 Actually ok with this because I can't understand a ******* thing usually. Also I left Telus, Shaw, Rogers, Bell years ago. **** them.

  • blammenwerfer
    turbonerd (@blammenwerfer) reported

    @AmazingZoltan All of the big telecom providers. I'll never forget getting a $1200 cancellation fee from Roger's, arguing for three weeks with Bell that no I never asked for cable internet please stop sending technicians, or watching Telus cry like babies when Virgin wanted to come up here

  • BlackStangBC

    @TELUSsupport I'm having issues with global.....is this a station problem or a telus problem?.....if your watching that channel specifically sound cuts out for about 20 seconds comes back 5-10mins later it does it again

  • QuarkSoupie
    Adam Robinson (@QuarkSoupie) reported

    @TELUS I doubt you will help even though ive been with koodo for over a decade. Being on disability means i need to be frugal. Not refunding me and claiming you did is a bit frightening that you can be so wrong

  • gdubon007
    Dubon007 (@gdubon007) reported

    Rogers and Bell have both told reporters they do not plan to adopt similar accent‑modifying AI for their customer‑service channels, drawing a distinction with Telus on how AI should be used in call‑centre operations
