  @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.

  @TELUS why are you trying to scam your customers?? I called to cancel my contract and paid $1200 to pay off my device. Your representative offered me a new contract to stay. They are now refusing to honour the contract I was offered even after admitting your employee assured me

  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

  @nath_beauregard @Bell I've been with Telus for decades with my internet, and not once has the bill gone up but the speed of the service did. When I started I was paying $99/month for 1.5Mbit DSL service and now I'm still paying $99/month for 3000Mbit up/down. Just look periodically at their plans.

  Maybe Pierre Poilievre negotiated a payment arrangement for a customer on his paper route. Or when he did collections at Telus. Tons of experience.

  @LauraBabcock Canada 🇨🇦 • Industry dominance — Groceries: Top 4-5 chains control ~72-80% market share, fueling high food prices (up 30% in 5 years, highest G7 food inflation). Telecom: Big Three (Bell/Rogers/Telus) hold 80-90% wireless market, high bills. Car insurance: Elevated rates in many provinces. • Real estate — Foreign buyer ban extended to Jan 2027, but past offshore/domestic investor activity inflated prices; housing remains unaffordable. • Private colleges — “Diploma mills” exploit international students with misleading promises, poor quality; crackdowns ongoing amid permit caps. • Tax overload — Paycheque deductions, GST/HST on buys, property taxes, embedded in utilities/fuel/bills, plus annual filings — heavy multi-level burden. Other pressures: Soaring cost of living (groceries/utilities/housing), long healthcare waits, big bank fees, productivity stagnation, wage insecurity despite data debates.

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Happened to me too, was calling about my internet services and the person who picked up said he was from the Telus customer service in India I legit couldn’t believe that they have a department in India of all places. Why do they have people there managing Canadian accounts

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Would you pay an extra $10 a month on your bill for "Domestic Customer Support"? Genuinely curious, maybe this is something Telus can consider.
