Heather Badenoch 💉💉💉 (@HeatherBadenoch) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@mrabson Any chance you’re on Telus or Koodo? Their free Call Control service blocks robocalls. I haven’t had one in more than a year.
-
Chris Beeston (@Sunston72) reported from Ottawa, OntarioBad guys score 2-1 for the @Ottawa67sHockey 2nd period. #NoQuit #AllConnected @TELUS

antpepe (@antpepe) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@tleehumphrey @TELUS It will be good, the working from anywhere needs more bandwidth. This will help people increasing their cellphone speeds. Businesses need to recover.
-
Michael Suddard (@MichaelSuddard) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@Ottawa_Biker @OC_Transpo Normally I don't have any issues in the tunnels until this past week and late week before. So strange. The St Laurent Mall Telus network usually picks me up no problem. Maybe I should try that one too. 🤔
-
Eric Goodwin (@auxonic) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@ALL_CAPS @TELUS How about cut off all incumbents from new spectrum auctions until there’s fibre literally every damn place.
-
EA (@ealculumbre) reported from Ottawa, OntarioAs long as I’m on LTE my #Ottawa reception is at 1 bar and reception extremely choppy. When changed to 3G service goes up to 2/3 bars & audio conversations became possible. - We shouldn’t have to choose between the two @TELUS @TELUSsupport
-
Eric Goodwin (@auxonic) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@human3500 @ALL_CAPS Lol... do we have an approach? Other than telus/bell looking for handouts to marginally improve poor service
-
Michael.L (@OCT_Fan) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@HeneinThorn I’m pretty happy with Virgin 🇨🇦 @virginmobilecan Though I’m thinking of going back to Virgin as TELUS has the worst policy re paying ones bill .
-
Bram Abramson (@bramabramson) reported from Hull, Quebec@Mark_Goldberg @TELUS And not just normalizing for units consumed, either: also reasonable bundle allocation & a dozen other things. Dividing aggregates by aggregates is the worst approach, except all the others -- better would be to opt out of market analysis. Which apparently has perils too. #crtc

Vivek Dehejia (@vdehejia) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@TELUSsupport Thanks, nope I didn't transfer this and got it from Telus last fall. Worked fine till this glitch today. But just had a friend call me and it's working again now. So I assume it was perhaps network congestion or something else temporary. Anyway, all good now!

Christina (@CJAY932) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@TELUSsupport I ordered Airpods on June 11th and was told they would take 3-5 business days to arrive. Still haven’t received any updates or shipping info. HELP! @TELUS

Michael Suddard (@MichaelSuddard) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@Ottawa_Biker @TELUS @OC_Transpo Perhaps mine is post morning rush hour issues.
-
Paul McGuire (@mcguirp) reported from Ottawa, OntarioAmazing statement today by @TELUS - if you keep your phone on airplane mode while overseas you will still incur roaming charges. Only way to prevent this, leave you SIM card in Canada. Terrible #CustomerService by @TELUSsupport
-
Paul McGuire (@mcguirp) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@intudes @TELUS I think they use that to their advantage. Also doesnt excuse terrible customer service @TELUSsupport
-
Stacey Simmons (@mssimmonssays) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@mcguirp @TELUS It doesn't matter, they are all awful😪
-
EA (@ealculumbre) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@TELUSsupport I can confirm this is happening in #Ottawa area codes starting with K1Y. Please bring this up to management - Telus tech support has already acknowledged the issue and now we’d like to see it resolved. Keep us posted with steps your taking to resolve it.

ambivalent_one (@ambivalent_one) reported from Ottawa, OntarioHi @koodo! I'm wondering what I can do about consistently low cell reception at home. I get poor audio on calls, dropped calls and often calls go right to voicemail. This isn't new, it been gradually getting worse over the last couple of years. It's also affecting the Telus cells
-
ambivalent_one (@ambivalent_one) reported from Ottawa, OntarioHi @madebygoogle I love my Pixel 6 Pro but it's by far the phone with the worst signal strength I've had in my area. @koodo and @TELUS both have low signal normally but of the phone I've had this is the only one that has dropped calls and gone offline. I'm in the burbs.

Paul Atkinson 🇨🇦 (@Paulysworld) reported from Gatineau, Quebec@mikesbloggity @jkenney @shandro It's their plan to privatize for $ healthcare. They only care about $ & the wealthy. They gut AB healthcare, fire 11k during a pandemic, refuse to shut down, go MIA, & will "suddenly" come up with a "private sector" (Telus health) solution... this is skulduggery they're Ghouls.

Jose Putanero 🇨🇦 (@JPutanero) reported@JakeLandauTO I got a call from a customer service agent (not Telus) today. His accent was so thick that I had a lot of difficulty understanding what specifically it was that he wanted to talk about. An AI that could make him more intelligible would be good for me, him and his employer.
-
Richard Wilson (@Richarddw56) reportedall you got was nothing for that wifi. that will be fix. new wifi router. telus will not be giving you the password. that is why you do not use cellphone data. they go to the cellphone company and steal all your passwords and hack you. they have the router.
-
Gulbs (@gulbraa24) reported@TELUS @TELUSsupport how the hell can I be standing in the middle of my yard on top of an effing hill and still not have enough phone service to send a picture? You guys absolutely suck. #turndownthesuck #absolutegarbage
-
Greg Hadubiak (@BreakPointca) reported@TELUS what is with service outage in Magrath neighborhood of Edmonton?
-
Michael Collett 🇺🇦 🇳🇴 🇫🇷 🇮🇪 🇮🇹 (@michaelgcollett) reported@TELUSsupport Working with Telus is not awesome. Getting technical support is impossible.
-
Fernpick (@Fernpick) reported@NorthugCapital @danielfoch Telcos are on the rocks. BCE took major hit (maybe not enough yet). Rogers is a **** show, not sure about Telus, and Quebecor/Freedom isn’t spending sufficiently on Network but plenty of spending in future. How long is long?

Peter Girnus 🦅 (@gothburz) reportedI 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.

Mar (@MarleneCorp) reported@TELUSsupport So very tried of daily calls to Telus trying to fix an issue. Had PVR replaced yesterday, now things are worse. Hello Rogers?

Jerry Lambert 🍏 🍏 🍏 (@JerryLambe75755) reported@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.
