  Rogers took ~$82M via Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy program, with top three telcos (Rogers, Bell, Telus) receiving >$240M while paying billions in dividends. Individuals receiving CERB had to repay over-payments, white collar welfare industry did not. Now mass layoffs.

  @TELUSsupport It’s great to see Telus results continue to decline. Customer service is awful. Waiting hours to speak to a human …. not giving loyal customers the same offers as new customers …. watching woke commercials to social engineer people …. I’ll NEVER come back.

  @johnnycakes91 Happens pretty frequently with Telus/Rogers. Telus in particular is bad because their agent bill things wrong pretty frequently and they just dump the file on Telus after they do the sell

  @woods_lin_ @Beefshaver Check Telus Sky Calgary, it sat there unfinished in delays for 2-3 years and was horrible, probably still pretty bad.

  @jffxns Reminds me of why im never going back to telus for internet. I'd had similar 10 years ago. Was paying about $120 month for "high speed internet" of 6mbps cause that was the fastest offered to my house/town. Parents paid the same price for same package, but was 500mbps for them.

  I am the Director of Voice Experience Innovation at Telus International. Six months ago, my team deployed a real-time accent harmonization layer across our Southeast Asian call centers. The agent speaks. The system listens. The customer hears Ohio. I keep a demo reel on my laptop. Before and after. The before sounds like a woman in Manila who went to university in Quezon City and has been resolving billing disputes for nine years. The after sounds like a woman who might be in a strip mall in Columbus. Same words. Same syntax. Same problem-solving. The only thing we change is the part that makes the customer hang up. The metrics are on slide eleven of my board deck. I'm looking at it right now: Customer satisfaction: up 23 percent. Average handle time: down 40 seconds. Escalation requests: down 31 percent. My VP asked what drove the improvement. I said, "Reduced communication friction." Which is technically true. The friction was that our customers don't like talking to people who sound foreign. We didn't fix that. We made it so they never have to know. The system processes voice in 11-millisecond intervals. It maps phonemic patterns to General American English midpoint targets. Internally we call these targets "anchor voices." The anchor voices were generated from 4,000 hours of NPR pledge drive recordings. We picked NPR specifically because listener studies show it's the accent American consumers trust most with their credit card number. (The agent hears themselves the whole time. Their own voice in their own headset. They just know that somewhere in those 11 milliseconds, a machine decides that what they actually sound like isn't something a customer in Phoenix will tolerate for the length of a billing inquiry.) Employee 7734 in our Manila hub asked to hear the output. We played it for her in a breakout room — the one with the motivational poster about "Bringing Your Whole Self to Work." She listened for six seconds. Pulled her headset down around her neck. Went quiet. Then she said, "Is that what they need me to be?" Her CSAT scores are in the 94th percentile. She clocks in every morning at 7:45. I should explain the economics because they're elegant: we hired agents in the Philippines at $4 an hour. We spent $11 million on a system that makes them sound like they cost $35 an hour. The delta is the product. We don't sell accent correction. We sell the gap between what a worker costs and what a customer requires them to sound like. The system doesn't work in reverse. If a customer with a heavy accent calls in, we don't smooth their voice for our agents. Harmonization flows one direction. Toward the customer. Away from the worker. Always uphill. Three agents requested transfers to text-based channels last quarter. They said they felt "disconnected from their own calls." My HR partner coded it as an engagement issue. Recommended a team outing. Bowling, I think. Every morning, 14,000 agents open their mouths and a machine makes a decision about what comes out the other end. They perform the labor. We perform the correction. The customer performs their preference. Nobody performs anything wrong.

  @Kapur_AK in Calgary we have Rogers or Telus. we used to have Shaw. we have NO competition now. the costs keep going up. the service is disgusting. before the Libs did this i had Shaw internet/TV & my cell with Rogers. Both were excellent then. now it's a horror story. Champagne.

  @NelsonHackewich @cjones2451 That isn’t even the inherent problem. Eg. Flames has Telus as helmet sponsor while NHL obviously partners with Rogers. This issue is whether those team-level deals having exclusivity in team/player branding over the league. I honestly didn’t even know that was a thing lol
