The Wise Investor 🧠 (@TheWiseIC) reported@NorthugCapital @BubleQe Telus still has ~ 15% down to go before I think it is fairly valued. It is still at a premium to bell.

Emmanuel Richie (@emmanuel_r90) reported@NotsoEezzy @amara_is_weird @Blissyboo1 Got someone in the US, UK or Canada that could help you apply for remote jobs like Telus or outlier..? Link up and let's make weekly income together

SpacBobby (@SpacBobby) reported@Jamesdevo72 @TELUS I have and it sucks. Have to point your phone to the satellite and not have it obstructed, so clear line of sight
-
HeyItsCherry (@HeyItsCherrry) reported@jaimepern You'll get better internet with Telus... but their customer service is pretty dogshit - slightly worse than Rogers/Shaw. Call Rogers, tell them you're a telus customer and ask what they'll offer you to switch. Take that, call Telus - leverage it for a great deal.

Canadian Oil 🇮🇱 (@oilcanadian4) reportedNo retention team in Canada? You offshored everything. After 20 years as your partner, I’m done. And when did it become acceptable to make a customer wait an HOUR? FU, @TELUS

Nancee Droo (@NanceeDroo) reportedI have a landline! A couple days ago our power supplier had a planned outage. Coincidentally, our landline stopped having a dial tone. I called TELUS. Got a callback to help get the landline working again. I’m in Alberta 🇨🇦. The TELUS dude helping me is in Manila, Philippines.

Jaye R. Walter MBA, CFP, CIM, TEP, FMA, FCSI (@JayeWalter) reported@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 ?

Sandra Thomas (@sthomas10) reportedWe’re on vacation so at the pool with music in the background & our server gave us her earring to get the SIM card out. It was a journey and Miguel never gave up. If there’s a @TELUS medal, he deserves it! 🥇🥇

Jennifer from YWG 🇨🇦🇺🇦🍁🏳️🌈 (@Jenniferl554563) reportedMaybe Pierre Poilievre negotiated a payment arrangement for a customer on his paper route. Or when he did collections at Telus. Tons of experience.

Dramatha (@Dramatha) reported@telus @TELUSsupport what the holy frick is going on with your outages lately? Good Friday thru Easter Monday you were offline more than online and today is back to intermittent outages. Please fix your ****… your service is absolutely atrocious for what you’re charging! #yyc

Court (@Court_TheRock) reported@stevemcniven @blondehotcoffee Rogers service is unreliable and just terrible up north. Bell is no better. I don’t even think Telus does internet up north. Only reliable internet provider is Eastlink, however quite a few people have been making the switch to starlink since it’s cheaper than eastlink.

Unacceptable Fringe Angie 🇨🇦🇮🇱 🍎 (@AngieGreyhound) reported@ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Every single call center now is in India. It's so frustrating when you get someone who really can't speak the language but thinks saying "I'm sorry Miss" over and over is how they'll fix whatever problem I'm having.

Laleczka (@Lalatran7) reported@TELUSsupport Who can we talk to at Telus that will help us? March 25- we pay $150 April 2- suspended April 3- we pay $144 Services back on April 9- next payment if not paid we get suspended AGAIN! WE told telus we can pay remaining amount in full on the 16th.

MRD (@MRD87694463) reported@VanIsleInvestor Telus cut 500M in maintenance and network build to buy back shares. The problems they need to resolve won't be fixed, and shares are still worth less. Telus is focused on the current quarter, and screws itself over for the long term. The future is friendly, but today isn't.

Sadiabc (@74Sadiabc) reported@TELUS took almost 3 phone calls since my Dad passed away in August 2025 to get through to a Telus Customer Service rep who could actually help. You should give Carl a RAISE! The rest of your agents are useless. Train them better
-
Tracy🌴♌🌊🎱🏹 (@ProvoGal01) reportedExcuse me @TELUS Why do you outsource your call center jobs to India? You're a Canadian company! Why are you not hiring Canadians to do this job? Why am I getting calls from a call center in India about my account? There are more than enough Canadians looking for work I will not accept calls from some call center in India about my service!

Crystals (@temizzereloaded) reported@Tobzy47 That's the issue bro. Even if jobs come, new accounts are getting banned after 24 hours of the 1st job. I'm currently exploring Mercor and Telus.
-
MRD (@MRD87694463) reported@VanIsleInvestor Dont forget the security breach was known about for months before telus admitted to it. Did telus pay? are they allowing their customer data to get released? No outcome yet, but the timing is also perfectly aligned with Darren leaving. Just customer data, or something else?
-
Derek Elliott, Libertarian (@Elect_Elliott) reported@jbrredux2 @nopenotnathan @avilewis One can't steal something that is handed over voluntarily. Get rid of the bureaucracy and all the unneeded red tape and anyone could start a company to compete and undercut bad companies. Telus, Bell, and Rogers have ZERO incentive to change thanks to cronyism.

REDEMPTION Golf (@REDEMPTION_GOLF) reported@TSN_Sports thinks we want 5, FIVE friggin channels of womens @MarchMadnessWBB #DEI insanity Time to cancel my @TELUS sports and join the streaming world.

Ai AM CAVEMAN (@CanadaScamada) reportedWinnipegers have had enough. For years, major telecom providers like Bell MTS and Telus (along with others in the big telecom club) have dominated the market in Manitoba with high prices, unreliable service, frequent outages, and frustrating customer support that often leaves people on hold for hours or bouncing between agents. Customers routinely report surprise bill increases, slow or inconsistent speeds, poor coverage in parts of the city and surrounding areas, and endless hassles when trying to fix simple issues. Many feel taken advantage of—paying premium rates for subpar, sometimes insecure connections that struggle during peak times or bad weather. Complaints have piled up nationally, with the big providers frequently topping lists for billing disputes, contract problems, and overall poor service. It's a classic case of limited competition leading to complacency: pay up or put up with it. But relief is on the horizon. Starlink is stepping in as a game-changing alternative, delivering high-speed satellite internet that works almost anywhere with a clear view of the sky. No more relying on aging cables or spotty towers—users in and around Winnipeg and rural Manitoba are reporting faster, more consistent speeds (often 100+ Mbps down), lower latency for streaming and gaming, and far better reliability than traditional options in areas where wired service has lagged. Setup is straightforward with self-install hardware, there's no long-term contract lock-in for many plans, and it's proving especially valuable for those fed up with the old guard. While pricing isn't the absolute cheapest in dense urban spots with fibre available, it often undercuts or matches what people were paying for inferior service—and the freedom from constant headaches makes it feel like a bargain. The message from frustrated Winnipegers is clear: the days of being held hostage by shoddy, overpriced telecom are numbered. Plastering their names on the local hockey teams heads as a mark of ownership will fool none. Starlink is here to give people real choice and better connectivity. Time to point that dish skyward and leave the old frustrations behind. -Grok & Ai

Jon Cowley | Decision Tech + AI Founder (@whatifi_io) reportedI can't even begin to express my extreme frustration with @telus as a company and their customer service workflow. My father passed away 3 weeks ago. I've been trying to settle his account, close accounts, pay bills, etc. I've spent 5 hours on the phone to date... 6 calls. And just received another $500+ "overdue" bill that I settled weeks ago. And you try to call their support number on their website. And instead you get a sales pitch... no opt out. So I "press #" and it kicks you out saying this number doesn't work in my calling area (I'm in Canada). So I write down the number they suggest... only to have it come right back to the same voice workflow... and the same death loop. I was able to reroute my Father's hydro bill in less than 10 minutes. I don't think Telus realizes how much potential revenue they are losing as a result of their clunky, poor quality controlled customer experience. Try to book a call back? Only to be told they will call back in three days... and when they do... the automated voice system is entirely in French.... And EVERY single rep I talk to ends up just trying to upsell me on a new service... when all I am trying to do is shut down my father's accounts, settle his bills, and move on. Every step of my experience with Telus has been unnecessarily painful.

Genius White (@ThomasLK007) reportedHey @TELUS ********* please tell paying Camadian customers on your network why there is a new ******* phone scam every week and where are these Indian cockroaches getting our phone numbers? I can only get rid of the rats when I tell them I'm gonna eat them alive.

Ray Gaur (@raygaurca) reportedWe signed up for a three year contract to replace our month-to-month 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
