  Years ago, before joining the railroad, I was a telephone operator at Telus. For a while, all the non-male operators got this rude guy calling, commenting and cursing them out. I recognized when he called because he’d usually hang up and call back to harass the ladies...

  Very long service call with @telus to discover that they’ve been charging me for a service they can’t provide to a rural area. #crtc

  I get my home internet service and mobile data plan from two different companies (Telus and Shaw). A wise plan going forward. #NotRogers #rogersoutage

  @dagdakiayaz @Rogers Switch to Telus. Rogers isn't worth your time and they don't care about customer service. Getting away from them was has been such a good change.

  Hey @Rogers, I requested to move my internet service last month. A technician came out and told me that the Telus cable currently in use is provided by my landlord, while the Rogers cable is buried behind the drywall. Apparently, I now need to hire a third party to demolish the drywall and access the Rogers cable just to get my internet installed. Is Rogers going to help resolve this, or should I just switch to @TELUS?

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport With more of our population aging and companies moving more stuff to the cloud, these issues will continue to happen but without providing a way for the client to get support for a change they did not request, without paying for it, is pretty irresponsible as a corporation.

  Here is a summary of annual net income (profit after tax) for the key publicly traded companies discussed previously, focusing on the major telecoms (Rogers, Telus, BCE/Bell) and major banks (RBC, TD, Scotiabank). Figures are in Canadian dollars (CAD) unless noted, drawn from company reports, Statista, Macrotrends, and related filings. Fiscal years typically end December 31 for telecoms and October 31 for banks. Data covers 2019 through the most recent full year available (primarily 2025; partial 2026 data is limited). Note that one-time items (e.g., asset sales, impairments, acquisition gains/losses, tax adjustments) can cause large year-to-year swings. Adjusted/operating figures are often higher and more stable but are not shown here—raw reported net income is used. Telecommunications Rogers Communications (RCI) • 2019: ~$2.04 billion • 2020: ~$1.59 billion • 2021: ~$1.56 billion • 2022: ~$1.68 billion • 2023: ~$0.85 billion • 2024: ~$1.73 billion • 2025: ~$6.9 billion (significantly boosted by gains, including related to MLSE investment revaluation) Telus (TU) (approximate CAD figures; some sources convert to USD) • 2019: ~$1.75 billion • 2020: ~$1.21 billion • 2021: ~$1.66 billion • 2022: ~$1.61–1.62 billion • 2023: ~$0.84–0.99 billion (lower due to various factors) • 2024: ~$0.99–1.11 billion range across reports • 2025: ~$1.11 billion (attributable to common shares in some presentations) BCE Inc. (Bell Canada parent, BCE) • 2019: ~$2.29–2.45 billion range • 2020: ~$1.85–1.86 billion • 2021: ~$2.16–2.31 billion • 2022: ~$2.09–2.25 billion • 2023: ~$1.54–2.33 billion • 2024: ~$0.12–0.38 billion (impacted by impairments and other items) • 2025: ~$6.5 billion (boosted by investment gains, including MLSE-related) Major Banks Banks are larger and more profitable overall. Figures are reported net income (attributable in some cases). Royal Bank of Canada (RBC / RY) • 2019: ~$12.9 billion • 2020: ~$11.4 billion • 2021: ~$16.1 billion • 2022: ~$15.8 billion • 2023: ~$14.6 billion • 2024: ~$16.2 billion • 2025: ~$20.4 billion Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD) • 2019: ~$11.7–12.1 billion range (CAD) • 2020: ~$11.9 billion • 2021: ~$14.3 billion • 2022: ~$17.4 billion • 2023: ~$10.6–10.7 billion • 2024: ~$8.8–8.9 billion (impacted by U.S. issues/provisions in some periods) • 2025: ~$20.5 billion (strong recovery) Bank of Nova Scotia (Scotiabank / BNS) • 2019: ~$8.4–8.8 billion • 2020: ~$6.8–6.9 billion • 2021: ~$9.6–10.0 billion • 2022: ~$9.9–10.2 billion • 2023: ~$7.3–7.5 billion • 2024: ~$7.8–7.9 billion • 2025: ~$7.8 billion Quick Notes • Trends: Telecom profits were more volatile, with dips in 2020 (COVID) and some mid-period years due to competition, capital spending, and one-time charges. Banks generally showed recovery and growth post-2020, though TD faced specific U.S.-related pressures in 2023–2024. 2025 was strong for several firms due to operational improvements and gains. • Scale: Banks’ profits are substantially larger than the telecoms’. • Sources & caveats: Drawn from company annual reports, SEDAR+/SEC filings summaries, Statista, and Macrotrends. Exact figures can vary slightly by “attributable to common shareholders,” currency conversion (for USD-reported views), or restatements. Always check the latest official filings for precise audited numbers, as 2026 interim results are still emerging. • Other Big Six banks (BMO, CIBC) follow similar patterns of multi-billion CAD annual profits, with growth in recent years but variability from credit provisions and economic conditions. For the absolute latest quarterly updates or detailed breakdowns (e.g., by segment), refer to the companies’ investor relations pages.

  @JustMeJamie64 @Rogers Kicked Telus to the curb last week, they asked why, I told them their installers who were contracted for 2.5 hrs came and did half *** job in 30 minutes while speaking Punjabi in my house. Then upon reaching out to customer service, more foreigners. No Telus No Timmies No Thanks.

  @RogersHelps @rogers: 15 hours with no internet, using my @telus phone as a hotspot. At 8 am, you said it'd take 4 hours to fix. Then 4-6 hours. Then the Rogers outage page kept extending the resolution time by an hour. Now an agent told me 24 hours. WTF? Unacceptable.

  The pre-market is pricing $AMPG ER report and a company as a complete failure, when the truth is that one bigger order is delayed probably with couple of months which led to company to pull guidance. Those are two very different things. Market cap in pre-market is around $85M right now. Add the $6M of July orders to reported revenue and they have already put together $19M this year and we are in August. So let's put things into perspective here and think. Is all of this really worth a 40% drawdown? Two real issues in this report. One, revenue is delayed. Delayed because of matters not in AmpliTech's hands. That's it, really. Delayed, not gone. But because of this, guidance was pulled. Two, margins compressed quarter over quarter. Management explained it with product mix. More detail on that would have been welcome. Those are the issues. Now the other side. Nothing about the progress they have made is erased. The macro conditions are still in place. They still have their 5G O-RAN radios that nobody else has. They still booked $6 million of orders in July alone. On guidance. They are saying they cannot guarantee $50 million this year. That does not mean they are not making money. They are still making money. I think they will land somewhere around $35 to 40 million. So I don't think we are talking about a big miss here. They just did not want to keep a number out there that they cannot guarantee. I kind of understand it. Maybe they should not have given that number in Q1 in the first place. Some updated number would have been great, I admit. Nothing is gone. The fundamentals are still in place. Customers, orders, LOIs. Everything I have written in my articles about the customer base, macro conditions etc is still truthful and accurate. Telus is not affected by any of this. AmpliTech is still shipping them daily. This was all about the South East Asian MNO. Trust in management is definitely shaken, maybe gone for many of you. Fair. I think management was too naive and optimistic during Q1, but the company is still developing in the right direction, with some hiccups along the way. I am not personally selling at these prices, but I really do understand if some of you are. Reminder, there is a PR coming this morning regarding the Titan Crest IP transfer being pretty much completed and upcoming orders related to it. So it was not all bad on the call. Expectations are reset. I learned a really expensive lesson myself about letting myself get too hyped, but underneath all of this, the company and story is still moving forward. What I see is a messy quarter inside a growth story.

  As a Saskatchewan resident, I never expected to be contemplating switching to Rogers Wireless. But @Bell, your latest decision to cap the amount of data one can use on hotspot in a month is downright boneheaded and @TELUS is no better (having made the same decision).

  @Ayan604 That is completely unacceptable, and I am sorry you had that experience Andy. This sounds like a spammer or scammer spoofing our caller ID to pretend to be TELUS. Our team would never speak to anyone like that. To block fake calls like this for good, check out our TELUS Call Control feature.
