  @TELUSsupport @TELUS most ATROCIOUS customer service…your agents constantly have to “consult” because previous agent didn’t make notes about why I’m calling. been on hold for 59+minutes & counting. All because u STOLE $800+ from my dead father’s account. Just want the $ back!

  @CTVNews Fk @Rogers . Everyone who deals with them should cancel all their services and switch to @TELUS. It's better service and it's cheaper

  Vancouver council votes this Wednesday on pausing new AI data centre approvals until the city builds an actual framework for water, power, and noise impacts. Telus has two projects riding on it. Asking a company to prove it won't strain the grid before shovels go in the ground is normal due diligence, not overreach. If a project can't survive that review, it was never going to be a good neighbour.

  Quite possibly true, I was raised with discipline, and many today are not. What I got as a kid, people today would call abuse, it wasn't. I started a business selling Internet access in 1995 and had 13 employees, this in North Central BC. We were an ISP until Telus monopolized the industry with the backing of the Federal and Provincial governments and bankrupted every small ISP in two provinces to the cheers of some of my customers. Ignorance is bliss, and yes, I'm still pissed off about it. Anyway, I had a few younger people work for me, some were good, many were not. It is a challenge to find good ones, but I can't help but look at places like Indeed and other online job markets and see how flawed they are. The hiring process is **** now, in the old days you hired your neighbors kid or someone you knew and trusted from Church made a recommendation. Grabbing a resume full of lies and flowery language is useless. Yeah, some kids are trouble but not all, but the way we find them has changed dramatically. In addition, when I got that job at 15, if I didn't pull my weight every minute of my shift, I was gone, instantly. Best advice I ever got was "fire fast and hire slow".

  @sharongregson @Rogers I feel your pain, Sharon. No idea why big companies cannot remove people from lists. Telus is just as bad.

  Has anyone’s data not been working with Telus lately? We switched back from Virgin because virgin was garbage, and now I’m having issues with Telus again. 🙄

  JUST IN: $ERIC just reported Q2 2026 earnings. The post below reads the 3 paragraphs of CEO commentary. And Olyth's right, it's exactly 3. I read the other 43 pages of the filing. And it's bullish for $AMPG. The AI connectivity layer isn't just in Ekholm's closing line. It's in the numbers. Receipts: ➟ Inventories jumped SEK 7.3B (~$750M) in six months. The highest level in the six quarters they disclose. Their stated reason, verbatim: "ahead of planned Q3 deliveries". The giant is loading shelves. ➟ Q3 Networks sales: guided ABOVE 3-year average seasonality. And the margin warning everyone sold? Their stated cause: "higher volumes of network rollout projects". Too much deployment. Read that twice. ➟ The "FCF collapse" headline says Q2 down 85%. The filing says first-half FCF UP 19%. The cash didn't vanish. It became radios, sitting in a warehouse, waiting for H2. ➟ Q2 adjusted gross margin came in above the HIGHEST analyst estimate on the street. The market sold the warning, not the execution. ➟ And the AI layer this post flags? Not just words. An AI drone-sensing demo running on live cell towers made Ericsson's top 3 strategic highlights of the quarter. Network-as-sensor just became earnings-report material. ➟ Dell'Oro, cited inside Ericsson's own report: global RAN market stable in 2026. The pie stopped shrinking. The next wave of orders is what's up for grabs. So put it together. The biggest Western RAN vendor just told you AI-driven connectivity is the next wave, stocked a warehouse for an H2 deployment push, and guided volumes above seasonality. $AMPG is the only American company designing and selling an open 64T64R Massive MIMO O-RAN radio. Standing in front of that exact wave. With management's signaled Q2/Q3 carrier deals going straight to POs. The category is proven. The wave is loading. AMPG's job is execution. August tells us. Tell us. Telus. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  We have $AMPG CEO saying that Telus already exceeded $40M LOI with $5-7 million dollars and that Telus is asking more configurations from them. They cancel ATM and announce stock buyback program AND same time Telus announces that they will spend $66 BILLION dollars to enhance 5G and fibre networks. Connect the dots. This is a huge find by @chinoalemano. 🔥🛰🚀
