  DEAR AT&T and TELUS, Are you paying attention? A company is only as good as it's service and attention to the most remote and poorest members of its service area. (I still say the same thing about unions too). When areas in SE Alaska don't have phone and internet their lives are highly at risk. It's not just about a drop in communications, gaming, streaming movies or social media. It's a drop in safety tools for these island dwellers too. Not to mention that with millions of tourists every year robbing the locals of bandwidth with high data traffic locals end up in last place as highpaying users for lack of competition. Ketchikan’s main internet (KPU fiber via the Canada route, plus cellular from providers like GCI/AT&T) has "finite capacity". When multiple cruise ships dock and thousands of tourists flood downtown with phones and devices, and that shared bandwidth gets congested—slowing speeds for everyone. When the service is down, many local busineses lose the use of POS machines (but still pay the rent to have them). Starlink solves this in several practical ways: -independant backup, -reliable pathways and -outage resilience. Starlink is already a tremendous service for the Alaska Marine Highway System which is a class 1 essential service for SE Alaska, whereby these ferries are often the only way form of transportation between island communities for so many of these remote residents. In this age of high technology, the current tools, even with their own redundancies, just don't offer enough protections. This isn't an advertisement nor do I get paid for mentioning Starlink. But I will post pricing for SE Alaska residents because these remote areas need options: As of August 2026, Starlink’s regular U.S. Residential pricing (which applies in Southeast Alaska) is: Residential 100 Mbps: $55/month Residential 200 Mbps: $85/month Residential MAX: $130/month New customers can download the Starlink mobile app and the sign up opens on the initial screen. Competition is a beautiful thing. Just saying...

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport I had to call technical the other night because my emails were not working. The front line person I received - I don’t know what she did - but it didn’t help so tonight I went through ChatGPT and it helped me step-by-step and I fixed my own email problem!!!

  @BenRabidoux Most people already have cellphones. Most of the times when I speak to a representative of Telus I come away with the feeling that they are trying to cheat me in some way. It is not a surprise that subscriber growth has slowed down.

  @christyclarkbc @grok before Christy Clark left office, she made sure the local telecom company Telus could not be named on Bc place. Here she is seen supporting bell on her jersey, a company from the east coast. What was the reason why she favours an east coast company? Revenue to help support taxpayer funded buildings would be good no?

  @Ayan604 @TELUS @TELUSsupport 🚨 March 2026, Telus, Roger’s, and Freedom all had data links. As a result, bad actors are calling clients as if from a major provider and HAVE enough client details to make people believe it’s a legit call. Nobody in Canada should be providing anything on a cold call now. 🚨

  @Starlink UPDATE: Been on @Starlink for the last week 100% ... did some tests, interesting results... Since I use a vpn and wireguard for work, I tested the speed of the connections... Fiber Optic from @telus is way faster without the vpn, but I can't do that for work.... Starlink was faster then the optic on the vpn... I don't really have an idea as to why, I do know that I am physically close to the main trunk lines and main pbx for the area, so that might have a lot to do with it... more switches to deal with in vpn mode via optic, less with starlink. This was actually surprising for me. So as far as wireguard+vpn starlink wins for sure. But... I still have an issue with the billing office being in Canada, and randomizing the mac address is still a problem, but that one might be just the way I have configured things, will look more into it. As for the canada connection, that might be solved later via some changes that are coming for us as a family. we'll see.

  @Ayan604 @TELUS @TELUSsupport When dealing with repeat offenders, I say "I'd love to" when ask something. Then I set down the phone.

  @AngelaUnspoken Virgin Mobility it's essentially Bell Mobility under a different branding. Same EPC, same billing system, same network backbone. Same thing goes with Telus and Koodo. Koodo is Telus' flanker brand. My guess is that you've probably switched to a BYOD plan by switching to Virgin from Bell. This is how much I pay, on a BYOD plan. Just a disclaimer, this is a business / corporate account.

  @BenjaminDEKR Happy to hear your needs are met but I don't think that is the rule - or at least I think there's a legit market I live in a suburb of Toronto and take @GOtransit into the city Every day I have infuriating dead spots with @TELUS and these guys are a legit service

  Does not help when they spend over 8b over 14 years on companies in the Telus Health area will little to no synergy benefits. Ag biz is bad too I hear. Add massive sector headwinds (Elon)… not pretty. They also have to stop silly vanity RE projects.
