  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Not to mention it’s not even about your phone most of the time. It’s trying to sell you cameras or some other product. I called support one time and I legit heard hens in the background of the call. Was unprofessional as ****

  @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

  @flyin_oryan @Sportsnet @TELUS Yeah I have boxes for each TV. We even have a booster because our internet was so terrible I’m surrounded by apartment buildings and live in a half duplex - thought it was just me because there are so many individual networks around us

  @stevemcniven @blondehotcoffee Rogers service is unreliable and just terrible up north. Bell is no better. I don’t even think Telus does internet up north. Only reliable internet provider is Eastlink, however quite a few people have been making the switch to starlink since it’s cheaper than eastlink.

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport At least you get calls. My Telus has been broken for over a year. They don't give a ****. Can't get one of the Filipinos to help ever never speak English clear, always hang up, only ever address half the problem. Sent me 4 new boxes. 3 months later down to one android box. There new superior technology, Telus is absolute joke do not use them! My security hole other gong show of broken and useless equipment. I can't cool anything on our stove or the fire alarm goes off and fire department comes.

  Excuse me @TELUS @TELUSsupport Why do you outsource your call center jobs to India? You're a Canadian company! Why are you not hiring Canadians to do this job? Why am I getting calls from a call center in India about my account? There are more than enough Canadians looking for work I will not accept calls from some call center in India about my service!

  @TELUSsupport such a worse experience with Telus. No body knows anything about internet. Two guys come to setup and diagnose internet and issue still persists. No one takes issue seriously. I work from home and my work suffers.

  We signed up for a three year contract to replace our month-to-month service for business effective November 28, 2025. It was our understanding that Anatoli Jr. Goriansk @TELUS the Account Manager was going to handle the switch, but for some reason he did not cancel our month-to-month service. Now our account has been suspended because of non-payment of the month-to-month service. Can you please assist. @TELUSsupport

  @TELUS what the heck happened to installing the PureFibre to the rest of the Somerset neighbourhood? You started 4 years ago then just gave up, the half I live in did not get the PureFibre and have the worst service because it’s the ‘old’ system! Now Bonavista is in the plans?!
