  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?

  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!

  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. 🤬🤯

  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.

  @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

• 
  H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported 21 minutes ago from Metchosin, British Columbia

  @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.

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

  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

  Derek Lewers (@critiklthinking) reported 36 minutes ago from Langford, British Columbia

  @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

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

  Christiane Sadeler (@ChrisSadeler) reported 44 minutes ago from Saanich, British Columbia

  @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.

  Brandon Rylow (@brandonscript) reported 54 minutes ago from Saanich, British Columbia

  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.

• 
  Jody Klassen (@bellasugarsega) reported 57 minutes ago from Langford, British Columbia

  I was a @Shawhelp customer for 5 years, until today. Cancelling my service and going with Telus instead. Don’t use this company for internet services, all you’ll have is regrets and ****** hardware.

  @DrRitaMc @cpsbc_ca @BCFamilyDoctors Hahahahha is that us after death? Maybe that is a new service telus health could offer? Communication with the dead doctor?

  Jenn Tranmer (@vicmomdoc) reported 58 minutes ago from Langford, British Columbia

  @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.

  @PeninsulaNews Who cares? We already know as daily consumers how bad Telus is. They apologized. BCLibs need to find something useful to do.

  Kurt Rowland (@ruhbarb19) reported 14 minutes ago

  @FringedCanuck @Starlink Interesting as I had Starlink for several years and never an issue. Telus ran fiber optic out past our place and offered a great price.. so we sucked in and got hooked up. We have been having issues with it cutting in and out the past few days. Strange coincidence

  Here is a summary of annual net income (profit after tax) for the key publicly traded companies discussed previously, focusing on the major telecoms (Rogers, Telus, BCE/Bell) and major banks (RBC, TD, Scotiabank). Figures are in Canadian dollars (CAD) unless noted, drawn from company reports, Statista, Macrotrends, and related filings. Fiscal years typically end December 31 for telecoms and October 31 for banks. Data covers 2019 through the most recent full year available (primarily 2025; partial 2026 data is limited). Note that one-time items (e.g., asset sales, impairments, acquisition gains/losses, tax adjustments) can cause large year-to-year swings. Adjusted/operating figures are often higher and more stable but are not shown here—raw reported net income is used. Telecommunications Rogers Communications (RCI) • 2019: ~$2.04 billion • 2020: ~$1.59 billion • 2021: ~$1.56 billion • 2022: ~$1.68 billion • 2023: ~$0.85 billion • 2024: ~$1.73 billion • 2025: ~$6.9 billion (significantly boosted by gains, including related to MLSE investment revaluation) Telus (TU) (approximate CAD figures; some sources convert to USD) • 2019: ~$1.75 billion • 2020: ~$1.21 billion • 2021: ~$1.66 billion • 2022: ~$1.61–1.62 billion • 2023: ~$0.84–0.99 billion (lower due to various factors) • 2024: ~$0.99–1.11 billion range across reports • 2025: ~$1.11 billion (attributable to common shares in some presentations) BCE Inc. (Bell Canada parent, BCE) • 2019: ~$2.29–2.45 billion range • 2020: ~$1.85–1.86 billion • 2021: ~$2.16–2.31 billion • 2022: ~$2.09–2.25 billion • 2023: ~$1.54–2.33 billion • 2024: ~$0.12–0.38 billion (impacted by impairments and other items) • 2025: ~$6.5 billion (boosted by investment gains, including MLSE-related) Major Banks Banks are larger and more profitable overall. Figures are reported net income (attributable in some cases). Royal Bank of Canada (RBC / RY) • 2019: ~$12.9 billion • 2020: ~$11.4 billion • 2021: ~$16.1 billion • 2022: ~$15.8 billion • 2023: ~$14.6 billion • 2024: ~$16.2 billion • 2025: ~$20.4 billion Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD) • 2019: ~$11.7–12.1 billion range (CAD) • 2020: ~$11.9 billion • 2021: ~$14.3 billion • 2022: ~$17.4 billion • 2023: ~$10.6–10.7 billion • 2024: ~$8.8–8.9 billion (impacted by U.S. issues/provisions in some periods) • 2025: ~$20.5 billion (strong recovery) Bank of Nova Scotia (Scotiabank / BNS) • 2019: ~$8.4–8.8 billion • 2020: ~$6.8–6.9 billion • 2021: ~$9.6–10.0 billion • 2022: ~$9.9–10.2 billion • 2023: ~$7.3–7.5 billion • 2024: ~$7.8–7.9 billion • 2025: ~$7.8 billion Quick Notes • Trends: Telecom profits were more volatile, with dips in 2020 (COVID) and some mid-period years due to competition, capital spending, and one-time charges. Banks generally showed recovery and growth post-2020, though TD faced specific U.S.-related pressures in 2023–2024. 2025 was strong for several firms due to operational improvements and gains. • Scale: Banks’ profits are substantially larger than the telecoms’. • Sources & caveats: Drawn from company annual reports, SEDAR+/SEC filings summaries, Statista, and Macrotrends. Exact figures can vary slightly by “attributable to common shareholders,” currency conversion (for USD-reported views), or restatements. Always check the latest official filings for precise audited numbers, as 2026 interim results are still emerging. • Other Big Six banks (BMO, CIBC) follow similar patterns of multi-billion CAD annual profits, with growth in recent years but variability from credit provisions and economic conditions. For the absolute latest quarterly updates or detailed breakdowns (e.g., by segment), refer to the companies’ investor relations pages.

  @araghougassian Too bad Freedom is not available in Montreal (at least they don't ship sim cards there) I had 60 gigs for 25 bucks with Telus, but they slapped an extra 5$ on and thought they would get away with it. I lowered it to 1gb with 25gb addon + data rollover and am at 52gb currently lol

  @TELUSsupport @TELUS At the end of a support call, your agent asked my father what his accent is. He said he is Israeli. He was then treated to a rant about Palestine and it seems like the agent did not actually finish his request.

  Telus World of Science TWOS - So much water damage. Why? Sure. Lotsa rain. But the damage is excessive. Are the Engineers that designed the building boy responsible ?

  @MPelletierCIO I cut my Telus bill by 50%, got rid of the cable boxes and all the specialty channels and packages, now I just stream what I want to see on AMZN, APPL, etc. Telus has problems bigger than customer growth, it's guys like me staying with them, but dumping half the services.
