Derek Lewers (@critiklthinking) reported from Langford, British Columbia@EComm911_info congrats on your new Dispatch centre here in Victoria, however tried calling to report an incident and it was like calling Telus and was on hold for nearly 10min as it said call takers were busy. As such, missed the ability to report as parties left scene #yyj

-
Jenn Tranmer (@vicmomdoc) reported from Langford, British Columbia@antric @TELUS @ShawInfo Yup @ShawInfo asked me to DM. Then I did. Then they didn’t respond. I tried their virtual assistant online. No response either. I get better service in Nicaragua than here. @cbcmarketplace help.
-
Fully Vaxed Gordie Logan (@GordieLogan) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaOh @TELUS, as a 30yr+ customer, I’ve never been so frustrated. I just had my appt for tomorrow cancelled. All because fiber hasn’t been run to the house yet. This is after an appt last week was cancelled for the same reason. Plz note, I made last weeks appt a month ago.

Reg Brick (@hellonature) reported from Colwood, British Columbia@BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.
-
Cheri S (@Cheri_L_S) reported from Victoria, British ColumbiaTelus has made 0 attempt to contact me about my TV taking longer than the "few weeks" promised when I signed up 16 wks ago. I was told weeks ago there was a Covid related delay & that someone would contact me. No contact. No stock problems @ Bestbuy. Where is my TV? @TELUSsupport
-
Zach (@zaxbux) reported from Victoria, British ColumbiaDoes anyone have any idea why some @Microsoft web properties (recently LinkedIn and Visual Studio Marketplace) randomly refuse connections? Appears to only be an issue on @Telus IPv6. Mobile data and IPv4 are not affected. 🤬🤯
-
Lloyd Mildon (@LloydMildon) reported from Oak Bay, British ColumbiaOn my @TELUS optik TV I now have to watch ads before I am permitted to move on to the programming. This is horrible. I’m the customer. I’m the guy paying the bills. Just stop it, @telus. @telussupport
-
Brandon ::1 (@brandonscript) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@cohix Hmmm I had a pretty bad experience with them years ago, but if my choice is them or Telus idk!
-
H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported from Metchosin, British Columbia@p_barbeau @TuraEmanuela @DrKathleenRoss1 Sorry, I have to ask. How does Telus get away with charging service fees to access longitudinal care then? I don't get how they're allowed to do what doctors cannot.
-
Jody Klassen (@bellasugarsega) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaI was a @Shawhelp customer for 5 years, until today. Cancelling my service and going with Telus instead. Don’t use this company for internet services, all you’ll have is regrets and ****** hardware.
-
Sarah Campden (she, her) (@scampden) reported from Saanich, British ColumbiaI haven't used it yet, but for those that have, is Telus Health fee based service? I think I may need an antibiotic and the thought of waiting outside a non-existent walk in clinic is awful #bcmed #yyj
-
🇨🇦🏳️🌈 Talia M. Wilson #GenXZeneca 🌈🇺🇸 (@olyfilmgirl) reported from Colwood, British ColumbiaSwitching back to Shaw for internet. Although Telus's website said our service wouldn't change, the guy Drew talked to said we could only get slower internet. So, just waiting for Shaw order to process. And who new self install was a thing?
-
West Coast Coco Mermaid 🧜🏾♀️ (@sherryella77) reported from Colwood, British Columbia@MACIConventions @TELUSsupport 30+ mins. I wish. I had to hang up at 2 hours and 3 mins. No one ever answers. I sent a DM to them on Friday and it was just answered 5 mins ago with a “sorry we can’t assist you via social media but we encourage you to call Telus”. Such a freaking joke.
-
H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported from Metchosin, British Columbia@dewolfe001 @TELUS I really wanted to switch to Telus but everyone I spoke with was so inept I ended up staying with Shaw and their substandard service. I just couldn't imagine having to deal with them as a customer when discussing switching and becoming a customer was so very bad.
-
Brandon Rylow (@brandonscript) reported from Saanich, British ColumbiaI didn’t cost Rogers a dime in staffing in the last 12 months, and I’ve been a pretty easy going customer for 15 years. I’m done though. I’m done being their customer. I want a cell phone plan with a company that isn’t this despicable, but sadly Telus and Bell are on that list.
-
Penny Holt (@canukgenie) reported from Saanich, British Columbia@gillrh They are the worst, along with mobile phone plans. You should have been a fly on the wall where Chris took on Telus. Not pretty.
-
Ian holt (@holtyny) reported from Brentwood Bay, British Columbia@TELUS sucks 10mins with @Shawhelp and it's all sorted for Friday installation...
-
Jennifer Ross (@JRossfamilymed) reported from Prospect Lake, British Columbia@DrRitaMc @cpsbc_ca @BCFamilyDoctors Hahahahha is that us after death? Maybe that is a new service telus health could offer? Communication with the dead doctor?
-
Ian holt (@holtyny) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@TELUS @TELUSsupport as long as this keeps going on I will advise our new neighbours to go to @Shawhelp a lady yesterday was having problems with telus to move in next month so now she is calling shaw this morning. Shaw as been brilliant.

GD (@DonatoG44) reported@TELUS your customer service sucks. I have been on hold for over 20 minutes waiting for an agent and your virtual system is just as bad
-
Jay Pee (@JayRaigh) reported@nenshi When I was working on 5G towers the Filipino Temporary Foreign Workers were falling off of the Towers and dying. Rogers and Telus did not pay out compensation because they were sub contracted to the projects for 50 cents on the dollar. Also the Temporary workers brought down wages of Canadians. Is this the society we want? Cheap and disposable labor? Canada is not as good as the 1980s and 1990s and 2000s.
-
Kit Kat (@KitKatKomeBack) reported@Malor77 @DanMazierMP Telus and Health Canada, both answered all the questions and the CEO of PrescribeIT didn’t have the information on hand but will hand in all the documents and information. The PBO was on a 6 month contract and his term ended. Trudeau was never a drama teacher.
-
heiba9866 (@heiba986627073) reported@markmandel007 @WestJet They can't even price q plane ticket ask them questions about pricing and they won't know what to say, Telus has trainers and quality agents who have never touched a plane 😢, while Canada has staff with several years of exp who do not rely on scripts
-
Dubon007 (@gdubon007) reportedRogers and Bell have both told reporters they do not plan to adopt similar accent‑modifying AI for their customer‑service channels, drawing a distinction with Telus on how AI should be used in call‑centre operations
-
x-Stunning Steve ⬆️ (@SteveDickerNL) reported@koodo @TELUSsupport I got a call yesterday from 1-844-372-1809, "TELUS" showed on Call Display. I said hello, caller thanked me for being a Koodo customer, then hung up. Was this a legit Koodo/Telus number, or was this a scammer? #koodo #telus
-
Scott Trustworthy Robinson - I am the hero Dr. Z (@ScottRRobinson) reportedIf Telus was in that room and didn't take my side it's "had a problem with confident men" I won't be kicking not confident men to the ground. I will give them my hand back onto two feet and they can think status all they want #Telus
-
Jonny5AB (@Jonny5AB) reported@johnIrish007 Telus CEO is stepping down
-
Indubitably Tho (@IndubitablyTho) reported@peternowak WOW. And I thought it was bad, years ago, when the Telus tech support robot stayed on script for asking a home consumer q's when he's talking to a business with a server room.

Jd (@ProfesorRefer) reported@Tablesalt13 For those that want to know TELUS outsources the most: It runs a massive global BPO operation (TELUS International/digital solutions) with call centers and services abroad. Its Canadian headcount has steadily declined while global grew. • Bell does offshore some customer service/IT (complaints about India/Philippines agents and recent moves are common). • Rogers has done the least visible offshoring for customer-facing roles: It publicly committed to (and delivered) 100% Canadian-based call centers/customer service teams (including repatriating Shaw jobs in 2023). It still positions itself as the only national carrier with this focus, though recent cuts, AI, and third-party shifts have drawn criticism like the others.
