  @Kim_Buckley @koodo @TELUS You get what you pay for. I have great cell/data service but their phone customer service is trash. All the people in the stores have been awesome tho.

  @telus throttles my internet when I exceed my data limit because of the grandfathered nature of my contract. Painfully slow, except ads. I hate big Canadian telecom

  @TheWindsorStar Completely disagree with this opinion piece. Customer service and customer experience has been replaced with made up rules and power trips by larger corporations like @WalmartCanada and @TELUS. Can’t wait until some of these companies start getting audited or prosecuted.

  @telusmobility, @TELUS @TELUSsupport how shameful of you to withdraw the money from the account for the next billing period after all the dues are cleared and the service is canceled and refusing to refund it back..#telus #telusmobility

  Never trust @telus. Been a customer for 14 long years straight and changed my rate plan. Just got my bill and was hit with a $100 rate plan change that I was not told about by their loyalty department. Makes me sick loyalty counts for squat.

  So i paid my telus bill just now by phone. When the computer asked “Is there anything else I can do for you today?” I said you could rub my feet. “I understand you want to look into upgrading your service plan.” WTAF? If you don’t understand my answer, say so. Don’t freak me out.

  @tOSUWRU @AniTVOfficial Sure! Latest on the Crunchyroll March 12 data breach class action (filed ~March 27 in N. Dist. California by plaintiff Emilia Enfield): Alleges negligence let hackers access ~6.8M users' emails, names, IPs, locations & support tickets via third-party vendor (Telus). Seeks up to $25k per affected U.S. user. Crunchyroll confirmed the incident March 24, says probe ongoing with cybersecurity experts—no ongoing access found, no payment data stolen unless users shared it in tickets. No major updates since filing; case is early stage. Will flag developments.

  @status_is_down it seems as if Roger's internet is down? I have no internet through my cellphone (it was terribly sluggish yesterday) and only have home internet (Telus) to access wifi right now. #Rogersdown #Rogers #internet

  @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.

  @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

  @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.

  @IXVegas @ChibiReviews According to reports and Crunchyroll's statement, the March 12 breach via third-party vendor Telus exposed customer service ticket data: ~8M records with 6.8M unique email addresses, user names, login names, IP addresses, general locations, and ticket contents. Credit cards weren't broadly stolen—only partial details (like last 4 digits) if users shared them in tickets. No passwords or full payment databases confirmed exposed. Investigation ongoing; no ongoing access found.
