  @jillschnarr Do you feel good about a company that bullies customers to purchase new home security systems by issuing a threat to refuse to monitor the customer's existing system? I received a registered letter today from Telus doing just that. Sounds like I should be talking to the CRTC!

  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

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport you guys are 100% losing customers due to your horrible customer service. Your AI agent is useless on the phone "I understand" humanising comments being repeated is a waste of everyone's time. No option to bypass the 5 mins of BS with AI agent verifying, only to have to do it again. A lack of proper training in your overseas call centre is obvious. Again, with redundant language meant to intimate an effort to manage expectations, but all it's doing it wasting more time on both ends. That a person needs to get transferred to multiple departments to deal with any services screams disorganisation. What should have been a 15-20 minute call (including hold time) was 2 hours yesterday, with no solutions due to errors on your end "we will call you back in 24-48 hours" on a time sensitive matter that your competition was able to address in 15 mins TOTAL time on the phone. Crazy idea, maybe instead of gauging us to keep the upper brass earning way more money than any company CEO deserves...you can bring customer support back to Canada. You know, make jobs for Canadians. DO NOT REPLY TO ME ON THIS.

  Never believe a @TELUS store rep and read their agreements before you sign any contract with them. The rep will lure you saying your billing amount won’t change during the whole contract period but their agreement would say something else. And that’s where you are trapped.

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Or sometimes the call center is so noisy or their mic doesn’t noise filter, you can hear the whole room of broken English yapping at once.
