  So we are now down to not being able to call on weekends or peak times because of over saturation and terrible signal. Neighbour is a nurse and the hospital can’t reach her half the time. Any news on helping out your rural customers? @TELUS @TELUSsupport

  @TELUSsupport Your telling me @TELUSsupport doesn’t have access to Telus support? Really? All I want to know is when Athens Ontario is going to get the tower upgrade we have been promised for over 2 years.

  We have had @Xplornet for about 11 years in our current location. Had them before that too. Up until last January I would give them a minus star review. Now 5 stars! Now if our Telus cell service was as good… Thanks for the incredibly positive changes Xplornet!

  $TU - TELUS CUT ITS DIVIDEND 55% AND RAISED CAPEX. THE FREE CASH FLOW GUIDE FELL A QUARTER. Every rung of the 2026 guide moved at once. Free cash flow to about $1.8 billion from about $2.45 billion; capital expenditures UP to about $2.6 billion from about $2.3 billion; consolidated service revenue growth to flat-to−2% from 2% to 4%; adjusted EBITDA growth to −2% to −4% from 2% to 4%. The quarterly dividend was reset 55% to $0.1875 a share, an annualized $0.75, which TELUS says frees roughly $2.7 billion of cash through 2028 for debt reduction. The payout policy moved to 45–60% of trailing free cash flow from 60–75%, and the discount on the dividend reinvestment plan is gone from October 1 — the company says that reduces shareholder dilution. The leverage target itself never moved. The deadline did: about 3.0 times net debt to adjusted EBITDA by year-end 2028 rather than 2027, from 3.5 times at quarter-end, citing "competitive pricing pressure and reduced subscriber demand amid lower population growth." Mobile phone net additions were 17,000. A carrier that grew by connecting a growing country is repricing for one that isn't. The dividend is what pays for the extra year. Shares fell about 12%.

  @JordanW34476060 I’ll be back, just need to give it a little cooldown time. It’s pretty sad that the previous research barely got any recognition, it’s $AMPG's biggest MNO, bigger than Telus, and that’s saying something. Thank you for your support! 🫶

  It’s fairly obvious at this point that $AMPG and Telus are collaborating on Telus’ 66 billion dollar network investment through 2030. Yes, if $ampg gets even 1% of that cake their market cap quadruples. (Not even including the dozen other projects they have going on) But what if that’s not all they are contributing to Telus? Telus is now hiring waves of AI Voice Data Specialists to train next-gen voice AI. What could a wireless operator company possibly need AI voice data specialists for? You call your local pharmacy/carrier/small business and you get a ****** prompt operator you have press 1, 2, or 3 five times in a row to get to who you want to reach. It takes an hour to complete your phone call. This is the Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. My inference is simple. Telus is going to revamp and wipe out the competition of IVR (which is a ~6 billion/year industry btw) Telus operates in over 35 countries. Guess whose radios get to be the backbone of this entire operation? $AMPG Data center tailwinds too lol this isnt a bubble $NOK $ERIC $IREN $NBIS $DGXX

  @TELUS I did not ask for a new service. After 20 years of paying for my security system, you would think that you have all the information you need to update my system.

  I hate how @TELUS doesn't care or help with bills, even if you are disabled or low income. So, you switch to another company and get "new promotions" and a smaller phone dealer (ie. Koodoo vs FIDO). And NOW they are upset I left! That's 20+ years of F OFF

  @TELUS Support team is supposed to be coming out today, but the service was supposed to be activated last Thursday and I’ve ate through my phone data to compensate :(

  @Pagmenzies @CANMNT_Official @onesoccer Do you pay for the app on top of everything? I already pay Telus to watch on TV. I shouldn't have to pay to watch online as well. I appreciate the help. I hope to see the rest of the Canadian games.

  I follow dividend kings and champions very closely. Today, TELUS $TU just cut its dividend by 55%. That move ends a 22-year streak of yearly increases at the second-largest telecom firm in Canada. Shares were down as much as 14% as soon as the news came out. The red flags sat out in the open for some time. The firm carried a weak dividend score of 6.8. Its payout ratio sat at a wild 278%. The yield hit 11%, and anything over 6% already looks risky. Debt forced the issue. Management needed cash, and the dividend was the fastest place to grab it. The company is listed in my International Dividend Champions report. The next update of that list will show the change.

  @MPelletierCIO @BNNBloomberg Telus should worry less about selling non-core assets and more about minimal, basic customer service. As a client I'm appalled, they never answer the phone. Farming your customer service out to third world countries is pathetic, Telus deserves to keep imploding.
