  @TELUS @TELUSsupport 1 hr later no call do had to call in. The frustrating thing is that she didn't want to change anything but Telus is switching boxes, so they force her to upgrade. She told the agent that she's 84 and doesn't understand tech and they told her she'd have to pay to have someone help

  @icenineleafs @araghougassian how is the reception and is there ability for wifi calling? My daughter was on Freedom last year, but had poor reception at her school, and in other places she frequents (she's a rep hockey player, lots of arenas), where Telus has been great. It's a bit more money ($37/mth) tho

  @JustMeJamie64 @Rogers Kicked Telus to the curb last week, they asked why, I told them their installers who were contracted for 2.5 hrs came and did half *** job in 30 minutes while speaking Punjabi in my house. Then upon reaching out to customer service, more foreigners. No Telus No Timmies No Thanks.

  @HotStoveD I just went through the same problem a few weeks ago. Phone agents were even less helpful and unwilling to retain my business. Decided to finally switch to Telus. Unfortunately, they have been just slightly better so far. The telecommunications monopoly in 🇨🇦 is a huge problem.

  @MarioNawfal Ontario government: 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.

  @FringedCanuck @Starlink Central Alberta here on Starlink. We have had no issues to speak of here. After years of Telus non-service and dial up speed level internet service, we are really happy with Starlink.

  Building RSC Boundary, Hookie, and Streambench (native Mac app for Kafka/NATS/Redpanda). Spent the last few years shipping AI-powered dev tooling at TELUS: an incident workflow (500+ reports), an LLM eval framework on the Vercel AI SDK. Looking for a senior product engineer role in AI-native devtools. Remote, Canada. Open to scoped contract work too, audits, specific features, fixed fee. DMs open.

  @Lidsville @Rogers This sounds like when I was being called by Telus for months about their security service. I kept asking to be taken off the list, they kept calling. Telecoms are evil

  Their service sucks because they sub contract out their technician calls to a 3 rd party contractor who has no money in the game son they don’t care. DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AVOID TELUS LIKE THE PLAGUE.
