  @Rogers I’m tired of your Indian call centre harassing me every other week and they hang up the second you ask them not to call! Next up I’m canceling all my services. Get control of your idiot marketing team using foreign dirtbags to mistreat paying customers #bell #telus

  @TELUSsupport I returned my telus equipment at Canada post a few minutes back after cancelling my internet service. I was told that it may take upto several weeks as they have heavy backlog at Canada post. Pls. Share the Cust.service email to share the Canada post receipt.

  @Lidsville @Rogers 🚨 PSA:March 2026, Telus, Roger’s, and Freedom all had data leaks. 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. 🚨

  Haven’t had a family doctor for over five years now. 🇨🇦 Try to sign up with some online company called Maple: sure no problem, take all my info….then they hit you with “join for $85 / mth.” Try sign up with Telus MyHealth: sure no problem, take all your info…no appointments available. Checked three months out. Canadian health care is so bad. Our BC government runs >$10B deficit, yet outcomes are simply terrible. Luckily, I live near Washington USA. Maybe I’ll just get a doctor down there to finally see how expensive it really is (or is not).

  @Richard_sfu @TELUSsupport It’s Telus man! Crappy service and worst customer service of all! My latest bill increased by $ 5 each for Optik Tv and 3Gbps Internet which I not getting since upgrading from the 1. 5 Gbps and the speed is even worse. And they have the guts to increase it !

  9/ Then start applying to legitimate platforms. Examples worth researching include: • DataAnnotation • Outlier • Appen • TELUS Digital AI Community • Scale AI ecosystem • Other verified AI evaluation/data-annotation companies But don't assume every platform accepts workers everywhere. Country, language, project demand and eligibility can change. Always check the current listing before applying. 10/ Here's something most “make money with AI” posts won't tell you: Getting accepted is NOT the same as getting consistent work. AI-training work is often project-based. Workers report differences in task availability, pay and acceptance rates across platforms and projects. So don't quit your current income source because someone showed you a $50/hour screenshot. Treat it as an opportunity until you've actually established consistent work.

  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...

  @TELUSsupport @TELUS For months I was sent promotional texts from you to switch to Fibre, yet when trying to switch in December’26 there was some issues. I finally caved & authorized the transition in July Now during the final 36 holes of the @FedExChamp I have NO 🛜 NOR CABLE! Make it make sense!
