  @Richard_sfu @TELUSsupport It’s Telus man! Crappy service and worst customer service of all! My latest bill increased by $ 5 each for Optik Tv and 3Gbps Internet which I not getting since upgrading from the 1. 5 Gbps and the speed is even worse. And they have the guts to increase it !

  @Richard_sfu @TELUSsupport I always use social media to vent my frustration because of the lousy support you get from customer service. This is Telus man! Nothing good to say.

  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...

  Telus responded. I got a call from a tech within 2 hours. He has set up an appt with a service person to come tomorrow morning. He says my modem is a couple Generations old. Fingers crossed this fixes the problem. Thank you Joe from Telus Power of internet.

  @MPelletierCIO I cut my Telus bill by 50%, got rid of the cable boxes and all the specialty channels and packages, now I just stream what I want to see on AMZN, APPL, etc. Telus has problems bigger than customer growth, it's guys like me staying with them, but dumping half the services.

  Input distribution in the United States is shifting. Last week it was announced that beginning with the 2027 season, Simplot Grower Solutions will no longer distribute or sell Bayer-branded crop protection or seed. And, starting in 2028, WinField United would not be selling Dekalb, Asgrow, and Deltapine seed brands, though it retains Bayer crop protection. Simplot's Innvictis brand retains licensing access to Bayer genetics, and WinField's Croplan and Armor brands keep Bayer traits. A shift was bound to happen and I doubt it's the last announcement we will see. Bayer signaled a change in its May 2025 strategy update, emphasizing new GTM motions with the US called out specifically as a region where shifts would happen. Bayer has forecast a mid-twenties EBITDA margin in Crop Science by 2029, from roughly 20% today, and while new and novel products are one avenue to improve margin, the other requirement is managing costs and working capital on the other end. I wrote a year ago that distributors and retailers should be ready for changes in product access, rebate dollars, and more high-touch demand generation from Bayer. If I'm a retailer, distributor, or manufacturer, there are several different questions that need to be asked and strategic focus needs to be top of mind. I broke it all down in more detail in this week's Upstream Ag Professional, alongside: - The Law of Conservation of Attractive Profits in crop protection - Q2 2026 results across Bayer, Nutrien, The Mosaic Company, UPL, TELUS Agriculture & Consumer Goods, and CNH - Influence Erosion in Ag Retail - Ambrook Raise - Salience Bias and how it needs to be considered in the context of sensor technology - InnerPlant Data Traits and Increasing Returns + much more How do you think the future of crop input distribution will shift in the next 5 years?

  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

  Hey @TELUS, I’m using your international roaming service, and the experience has been extremely disappointing. The data is painfully slow, and calls keep dropping. Is this really what you charge CAD $18 per day for? Shame on you.

  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.

  @JustMeJamie64 @Rogers I just did the same with Telus they operate out of El Salvador and the Philippines. The service is fast and they are well trained. One guy had chickens in the background, but i wish they were operating in Canada.

  @hotglassofskank @RonnyTheSinner i used to work for telus and had a widow come in to cancel her late husbands cell phone so i had to call corporate and they’re like “we need proof” and she’s like “he died two days ago i don’t have any yet & can’t afford the bill coming out tomorrow” and they said “well too bad!”

  @BoomerDivvies @TELUS They're a nightmare. Say this as a previously frustrated client and shareholder. Hours to get through only for them to spew lies claiming it's smart devices slowing down my Internet and making the TV freeze. 4th repairman told to go to Rogers.

  @ccoutu1 @Rogers @RogersHelps Telus is worse , fyi. Roger’s was the only company with service while I was away this past few days meanwhile I had 0. It’s not a single companies fault it’s the entire infrastructure in the North. Maybe call Chris Sc….oh wait

  John Iosifov ✨💥 Ender Turing | AiCMO (@johniosifov) reported 53 minutes ago

  TELUS deployed a voice AI agent to call new home internet customers in their first 90 days. Not to resolve a problem. Not because the customer called in. Just to check in. Result: customers who got that AI welcome call were less than half as likely to cancel within 30 days. That's proactive retention — and it completely inverts how most contact center AI is deployed. The standard mental model: AI handles inbound. Saves cost. Deflects calls. Reduces headcount. TELUS ran the opposite play. Outbound. Proactive. AI-initiated. And the economics are brutal in a good way. Every churn prevented is worth months of subscription revenue. Voice AI at scale means you can make that call to every single new customer — not the top 10% who triggered a risk score. Gartner projects $80 billion in contact center labor costs cut by AI this year. 88% of contact centers now run some form of AI. But 75% haven't operationalized it. They have tools. They don't have outcomes. The difference between TELUS and the 75%: TELUS defined the outcome first (reduce 30-day churn), then designed the intervention (proactive welcome call), then measured it. Proactive > reactive. Always. In contact centers and everywhere else. This is what the call center AI conversation is missing. Everyone's chasing deflection rates. The real money is in the outbound plays nobody's running yet.

  @TELUS Waiting for the phones in on business plan to run out. Only 3 more left to go then send them back and switch. Never had so many dropped calls or just no service at all. 5g+ and no internet error or dropped calls and dead zones in southern Ontario is crazy.

  @BoomerDivvies @TELUS Amen!! The duopoly situation that CRTC allowed with Rogers and Telus is one of the leading reasons they can get away with such horrific service.
