  Yeah, @TELUS just about every day I get calls from someone with a heavy Indian accent claiming to be Kirk, or George, or Frank bugging me to buy your products. All it does it make me HATE you and never buy from you.

  Starlink Android Coming Soon to Manitoba – Time to Break the Telecom Cartel Manitobans have had enough. For years, Bell, MTS, Telus, and Rogers have been charging premium prices for spotty coverage, slow speeds, unreliable service, and frustrating customer support that treats customers like an afterthought. Enough is enough. Starlink is about to shake things up in a big way. The announcement is clear: Starlink Android is coming soon to Manitoba. With Starlink’s satellite-powered internet now expanding to mobile Android devices, rural and urban Manitobans alike will finally have access to fast, reliable, high-speed connectivity that doesn’t depend on the old guard’s outdated infrastructure. No more dropped signals in the middle of nowhere. No more paying top dollar for mediocre service. No more being held hostage by a handful of big telecom companies that have been gouging customers for far too long. This is more than just another app or service — it’s a direct challenge to the monopoly-like grip these providers have had on Manitoba. Starlink’s low-Earth orbit satellite network delivers consistent performance, better security, and the kind of reliability that Bell, MTS, Telus, and Rogers have failed to deliver despite years of complaints. If you’re tired of overpriced plans, unreliable coverage, and terrible customer service, Starlink Android can’t arrive fast enough. Manitoba, get ready. The satellite revolution is landing on your Android phones — and the big telecom dinosaurs are about to feel the heat. - Grok & Ai

  So much for being a @TELUS loyalty customer. What happened Telus? Been a customer for 20 years. Can't get a small deal on a new contract.

  @TroyWestwood Ah no.. YOU DONT SPEAK FOR CANADIANS!!! Canada ******* sux!!!! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 • Industry dominance — Groceries: Top 4-5 chains control ~72-80% market share, fueling high food prices (up 30% in 5 years, highest G7 food inflation). Telecom: Big Three (Bell/Rogers/Telus) hold 80-90% wireless market, high bills. Car insurance: Elevated rates in many provinces. • Real estate — Foreign buyer ban extended to Jan 2027, but past offshore/domestic investor activity inflated prices; housing remains unaffordable. • Private colleges — “Diploma mills” exploit international students with misleading promises, poor quality; crackdowns ongoing amid permit caps. • Tax overload — Paycheque deductions, GST/HST on buys, property taxes, embedded in utilities/fuel/bills, plus annual filings — heavy multi-level burden. Other pressures: Soaring cost of living (groceries/utilities/housing), long healthcare waits, big bank fees, productivity stagnation, wage insecurity despite data debates.

  @TELUSsupport Note this part: "same-size Telus SIM card". Received another CPO iPhone (Same model) that accepted my Telus SIM card after a time-wasting replacement process. Issue should NEVER have happened. Point stands: Telus CPO program is not at all guaranteed.

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Are you dumb? Option A: Call Telus and get an Indian support person in india. Option B: Call Telus and get an Indian support person in Canada. Once they infiltrate they use extreme nepotism and only hire other Indians. They take a monopoly on certain enterprises. Call centers are one of them.. By using an OG Indian not a Canadian Larping Indian Telus pays 10c/hour vs $16/hour for the exact same thing. It’s just business.

  @Bell seduced me to leave @TELUS last November for great mobile rates as long as I kept my internet service with them. Since then they have increased the cost of my internet so now I am almost paying the same total as before. Time to shop for a better deal!

  Excuse 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!

  @joesmeggma @inthemoneypod @briangbelski BCE said they would pay down debt but decided to get into MORE debt with Ziply Fiber. Complete opposite of what I said Telus management should do. It's the opposite of what Telus management says they're going to do. We'll see if they go more into debt like BCE or not.

  @Stephbujo @nath_beauregard @Bell Not just Bell, Telus is the same. They tried to tell me I never sent them the equipment back ( that after some Telus goof tried to make me believe the Canada Post will come driving out to the sticks and pick it up ) luckily I didn’t believe him and sent it by registered mail. Took me almost 3 months and many phone calls and a lot of grandstanding by Telus before they finally stopped being jerks.

  @TELUSsupport such a worse experience with Telus. No body knows anything about internet. Two guys come to setup and diagnose internet and issue still persists. No one takes issue seriously. I work from home and my work suffers.

  @Bell_MTSHelps The Northern lights Satellite Fight Rogers played it like a chess grandmaster while Bell, MTS, and Telus fumbled around like they were playing checkers with winter mittens on. In a country as vast and rugged as Canada, where huge swaths of land have zero cell coverage, satellite-to-mobile tech is the future for keeping people connected in the bush, on the water, or up north. Rogers saw the obvious winner and jumped in early with Starlink— Elon Musk’s low-Earth orbit beast with thousands of satellites already zipping overhead. They launched Rogers Satellite in 2025, starting with reliable texting, text-to-911, and emergency alerts on regular smartphones, then rapidly added support for popular apps like WhatsApp, Google Maps, AllTrails, and Messenger. By early 2026, they expanded it coast-to-coast (covering millions more square kilometres), tossed in free trials in places like Atlantic Canada, and just days ago rolled out seamless roaming into the US via T-Mobile’s Starlink-powered setup. No special hardware, no waiting years—real connectivity, right now, with proven performance and clear momentum toward full voice/data. Smart, decisive, and customer-first. Rogers basically turned every phone into a satellite phone where towers fear to tread. Meanwhile, Bell (and its MTS arm) and Telus decided to bet big on AST SpaceMobile, a scrappy Texas startup still scrambling to get its own satellite constellation properly off the ground lol. Bell hyped a “first” demo voice call back in 2025 and promised a 2026 launch, while Telus signed on in March 2026 with some equity investment and ground infrastructure talk. Their pitch? Future broadband, voice, and data… eventually. Late 2026 at the earliest for any real rollout, with a lot of “we’re building it” vibes and fewer actual customers using it today. The contrast is brutal and hilarious. Rogers is out here actually delivering satellite connectivity today—texts, apps, cross-border roaming—while Bell, MTS, and Telus are still waving around press releases about satellites that mostly exist as PowerPoint slides and optimistic timelines. Canadians stuck in dead zones don’t want “coming soon” promises; they want a signal when their truck breaks down in the middle of nowhere. Rogers chose the proven, massive, rapidly scaling Starlink network that’s already lighting up phones across the planet. Bell and Telus? They went with the long-shot alternative that’s playing catch-up. In the race to blanket Canada with space-based mobile service, one carrier sprinted ahead with the rocket ship… and the others are still warming up the backup prop plane. Right now, the industry is laughing: “Bell and Telus picked what?” While Rogers customers are sending “I’m alive” texts from the tundra, their rivals are busy explaining why their fancy future service isn’t quite ready yet. Classic Big Telecom brain fart—overthinking it, missing the obvious winner, and handing Rogers a massive marketing and coverage edge on a silver platter. Oof. That’s gotta sting. - Grok & Ai

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport they did this years ago. The only company that stopped this was Rogers back in early 2018. I believe it was then, they had so many complaints about overseas, when Guy Lawrence took over he made all these jobs come back to Canada. Bell Media and Telus have always had overseas support. That's why I never dealt with them.

  @VanIsleInvestor I wonder if Telus shares are also down because all of it's BC assets are on un-ceded territory and potentially no longer Telus' Telus is a serious proponent of reconciliation. Maybe they'll just hand it all over? Since they've been using the land without permission. *pokes bear

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Would you pay an extra $10 a month on your bill for "Domestic Customer Support"? Genuinely curious, maybe this is something Telus can consider.
