  • RamoneCat Mike from KayDub 🌴🍁🌴 (@RamoneCat) reported from Kitchener, Ontario

    @FenderGuy69 I bought an S20 5G right from Telus. They had a deal that brought the purchase price way down. Buying any "flagship" phone at full price is crazy imho. Since these things only last a few years, lower capital cost is good.

  • MichelleOram13 Michelle Oram (@MichelleOram13) reported from Kitchener, Ontario

    @figuresk8rmom @shaw @TELUS Oh no. That’s why I am afraid to make any changes to my cable or internet service. Hope it gets resolved soon!

  • JStanley81 John Harris (@JStanley81) reported from Kitchener, Ontario

    @koodo your customer service is appauling. I have been trying to connect to to pay my bill and your phone service wouldn't connect me to a live person I went to your booth in the mall and 3 @TELUS stores asking how to pay. I was told to sign up online which your site didn't allow

  • JStanley81 John Harris (@JStanley81) reported from Kitchener, Ontario

    @TELUS the @koodo website kept redirecting me to customer supper when trying to make an account and your auto messing system kept taking me in circles.

  • JStanley81 John Harris (@JStanley81) reported from Kitchener, Ontario

    I take my credit VERY seriously and for months tried to find how to pay this bill before it reported LATE. people at your @koodo booths or @TELUS stores didnt care to help. Now I have a late showing on my credit report, this is not on me! I demand to and my late be removed

  • Peter_Muscat Peter Muscat (@Peter_Muscat) reported from Woolwich, Ontario

    To bad Roger's bell and Telus need to take Take every thing over and this would happened under bell and Telus

  • kurtseifried Kurt Seifried (He/Him) (@kurtseifried) reported

    @TheJenRollins Telus went to a converged IP network ages ago (they were one of the first telcos to do it actually) over a decade ago. If they crash their BGP there’d be a similar outage to rogers even for “landlines” which haven’t been POTS anywhere in ages. TLDR it’s all internet protocol now.

    @sarrahh011 I was with Telus for yrr put my kid on koodo 15 yrs ago, then I switched 10 yrs ago. Love them. No issues even when in rural Quebec. I think they Have better deals. I hate bell & Rogers equally.... So for the house needs, I am screwed lol.

  • JackieBee_16 JB (@JackieBee_16) reported

    @TrentonFarewell @SherryHallworth I’m not going to. 20 years I’ve been with @Rogers! I also have a cell phone for work that’s Telus so…I could use that in a pinch. This outage could have literally happened to any service provider tho…

  • meilach Sam Meilach (@meilach) reported

    @CTVNews Why couldn't Roger's temporarily transfer all customers to Bell or Telus in such an emergency?

  • biletubes Bill Tubbs (@biletubes) reported

    @BakedGoodsYYC @MondoAlberta @PierrePoilievre I don’t doubt that a regulated utility can be an innovative industry leader (e.g. SaskTel). But I believe market competition ensures all others have to catch up to the leader. I don’t know why Telus/Rogers/Bell are consistently so bad but I think it could be lack of competition.

    Also, I'm seeing a lot of the government should be doing that job comments. As a Telus customer I was largely unaffected at the level I needed. If this had happened to a true government monopoly all of us would have been shut down.

  • CraigArsenault1 Craig Arsenault (@CraigArsenault1) reported

    @RogersHelps There’s a reason I’ve switched my family’s cells to Telus and I guess soon to be home wifi / cable switching to Bell. Roger’s service and appreciation of its customers is 100% non-existent

  • Avi_serfay Avi serfaty (@Avi_serfay) reported

    @JoyAndDefiance I hope they will sue @Rogers ***... even the lotto wasn't working -tied to Rogers ...the first thing I did is change my phone service from Rogers to @Telus ... Hope they will not go down at the same time ...

  • eimaj66 J.L. White (@eimaj66) reported

    @ugottabekiddin You should switch to Telus, my service hardly ever goes out.
