  Zach (@zaxbux) reported 11 seconds ago from Victoria, British Columbia

  Does anyone have any idea why some @Microsoft web properties (recently LinkedIn and Visual Studio Marketplace) randomly refuse connections? Appears to only be an issue on @Telus IPv6. Mobile data and IPv4 are not affected. 🤬🤯

  @EmmaCParston @Google People complain that high quality electronic products by companies like Apple and Tesla are overpriced until they waste valuable time on the alternatives. For my part, I’m wishing I’d stayed with Fido & Shaw instead of getting duped into Telus’ marketing-first service-last model

  @BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.

  Telus has made 0 attempt to contact me about my TV taking longer than the "few weeks" promised when I signed up 16 wks ago. I was told weeks ago there was a Covid related delay & that someone would contact me. No contact. No stock problems @ Bestbuy. Where is my TV? @TELUSsupport

  @EComm911_info congrats on your new Dispatch centre here in Victoria, however tried calling to report an incident and it was like calling Telus and was on hold for nearly 10min as it said call takers were busy. As such, missed the ability to report as parties left scene #yyj

  @MACIConventions @TELUSsupport 30+ mins. I wish. I had to hang up at 2 hours and 3 mins. No one ever answers. I sent a DM to them on Friday and it was just answered 5 mins ago with a “sorry we can’t assist you via social media but we encourage you to call Telus”. Such a freaking joke.

  @antric @TELUS @ShawInfo Yup @ShawInfo asked me to DM. Then I did. Then they didn’t respond. I tried their virtual assistant online. No response either. I get better service in Nicaragua than here. @cbcmarketplace help.

  @TELUS you may want to check Twitter for comments on @koodo. Or check the @koodo community board. A lot of upset people for terrible service. One more try from me to get the money due to me and my next move is CRTC. #unbelievable corporate arrogance and inaptitude.

  How is it the Province's fault that a million people couldn't follow simple instructions and wait to call for a vaccination until it was their turn? Not having a callback queue was definitely a big mistake which I hope Telus will fix. #blamegame #CommonSense

  Oh @TELUS, as a 30yr+ customer, I’ve never been so frustrated. I just had my appt for tomorrow cancelled. All because fiber hasn’t been run to the house yet. This is after an appt last week was cancelled for the same reason. Plz note, I made last weeks appt a month ago.

  Switching back to Shaw for internet. Although Telus's website said our service wouldn't change, the guy Drew talked to said we could only get slower internet. So, just waiting for Shaw order to process. And who new self install was a thing?

  I didn’t cost Rogers a dime in staffing in the last 12 months, and I’ve been a pretty easy going customer for 15 years. I’m done though. I’m done being their customer. I want a cell phone plan with a company that isn’t this despicable, but sadly Telus and Bell are on that list.

  Brent Smithurst (@brentsmi) reported 41 minutes ago from Colwood, British Columbia

  All I want for Christmas is more than one bar (at best) of cel service in Royal Bay. Get it together, @TELUS /@Bell. I’ll switch to @rogers if they’ll do something about this. 2.5 years of this is ridiculous!

  @MirandaWiebe @TELUS Same here 4 hours and someone was supposed to call me back within 30 minutes twice now and I'm still waiting. Really bad customer service and I started at 730 this morning

  Why ******** does telus keep calling me at 745pm every night and hanging up? Get real.

  @p_barbeau @TuraEmanuela @DrKathleenRoss1 Sorry, I have to ask. How does Telus get away with charging service fees to access longitudinal care then? I don't get how they're allowed to do what doctors cannot.

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport as long as this keeps going on I will advise our new neighbours to go to @Shawhelp a lady yesterday was having problems with telus to move in next month so now she is calling shaw this morning. Shaw as been brilliant.

  I haven't used it yet, but for those that have, is Telus Health fee based service? I think I may need an antibiotic and the thought of waiting outside a non-existent walk in clinic is awful #bcmed #yyj

  Jayem 🇨🇦 (@LXXIIpercent) reported 7 minutes ago

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport I never answer calls from Telus. I know it'll be some foreigner so I won't understand a word they say. If I call them & get a foreigner I ask for a supervisor. Supervisors speak proper English. I think when you ask for a supervisor it gets transferred back to someone in Canada.

• 
  Elli (@ElliMicki) reported 9 minutes ago

  I had the most difficult time communicating with the @TELUS @TELUSsupport agent today. The guy cannot understand and articulate himself properly in plain English. I hate these companies offshoring their service team elsewhere and provide mediocre services to the customers.

  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

  The only issue I had with @TELUS being with them for just under two months, was that their computer agent was responding incorrectly and it took me a long time to get to a human. The humans were great. I was not on earbuds. I was talking directly into my phone. It was not me.

  @Stephbujo @nath_beauregard @Bell Not just Bell, Telus is the same. They tried to tell me I never sent them the equipment back ( that after some Telus goof tried to make me believe the Canada Post will come driving out to the sticks and pick it up ) luckily I didn’t believe him and sent it by registered mail. Took me almost 3 months and many phone calls and a lot of grandstanding by Telus before they finally stopped being jerks.

  MTF 🇨🇦 (@EhmTEhf) reported 17 minutes ago

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport they did this years ago. The only company that stopped this was Rogers back in early 2018. I believe it was then, they had so many complaints about overseas, when Guy Lawrence took over he made all these jobs come back to Canada. Bell Media and Telus have always had overseas support. That's why I never dealt with them.

  @ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport You wanna pay low mobile rates, talk to the people in India, if not we have the Canadian Cusotmer Service line, but that cost $15 more a month. Your choice.
