Telus Outage in Port Moody, British Columbia

@TerryPlatt5 @TELUS @Shawhelp I had a similar problem when I had Shaw. Turns out old cable has impedance that isn’t compatible with modern digital equipment. Not all technicians know that.

@Telus and @TELUSsupport please can you explain the cause if disruption of service on 26 May2021 at 13:30 PST on the Burnaby area? #PoorService

I swear, putting me on hold for so long when I phone you to cancel my internet service just reinforces the fact that I want to leave. Like do they think it's a tactic so people get impatient and hang up? Really Telus?

@maxfawcett You haven’t lived until you’ve had to deal with Telus customer service. A vacation in hell would be more pleasant than dealing with the abomination that is @Telus

@hurrrdurrr @juliekrobe I mean, Copeman still exists, though owned by Telus now so not entirely. Also, you know full well the Canadian health care system would treat her and presumably she’s got travel insurance.

@TELUSsupport I have sent you a DM about my ongoing internet connection dropping issues with Telus internet with my case details, kindly respond to my DM, thanks.

@CALCocoReads You should still have 911 access... phones are designed to hop on to any network it can pick up to place an emergency call, even if you have no SIM card... just means that Rogers/Fido customers would hop in to Telus/Bell to make the call.

@kboyd05 Good luck. Took 1.5 hrs to deal with @TELUS yesterday to deal with an over billing issue. On any given day, Telus is possibly the worst company in Canada to deal with. Bureaucratic, unresponsive, inept, and that’s just the start.

Next stage of working with @Telus: 1) phone call, told to go to store 2) store says they can't help me but they can sell be a SIM card, call this number 3) called that number, told they can only fill out a form for things to be activated in 5 days, my SIM is useless

@steeletalk I found out via media...I am so very upset as we have been asking to be included and “radio silence” and then “boom” media drops this important info? We don’t have unlimited staffing and people like @TELUS to help us man the phones...why no notice to supposed front liners ! Sigh

I’m just far too exhausted. I’ve exhausted every option other than going to Er st Paul’s And it’s just blah The doctor on Telus health app felt all bad last night

I get that there's a new version of the Pik TV app for Android and you are excited for the to update, @TELUS. But unless it's absolutely necessary, forcing me to upgrade or quit when I launch the app is the worst experience!

@CBCStephenQuinn just last week I had another awful call with @TELUS over the the 50% hike in my monthly home services bill. Loyalty discounts just don’t exist in the #telecom sector and they REALLY should.

@keithbaldrey Good for @Telus to remedy the issue with the call centres and finding ppl to man the phones. Just curious why Telus can’t respond to actual customer concerns that quickly & remedy issues that arise. Funny how that works.

@PaulDoroshenko Except @Telus is far from an expert at much of anything. Their reputation is horrid at most everything. Even their own employees acknowledge how bad they are.

@keithbaldrey If youve ever had to deal with @Telus you’d know this fiasco is par for the course. On a good day Telus is in a tight battle for one of the worst customer service, unresponsive, bureaucratic co’s in the country, on a bad day you get what happened.

@Bzubyk @TELUS If you’ve ever had an issue with this horrid Telcom, you’d understand how bureaucratic & truly Inept they actually are. This isn’t really all that surprising when you team an inept co with an obviously feckless bureaucracy

@casper5803 @richardzussman @TELUS where are they getting these agents so quickly? Great if they actually can, however, the reality remains where are they getting them & why werent they deployed yesterday when it became obvious their ineptitude was creating huge issues?

@Bzubyk We all know it’s drivel damage control written by a PR hack. What it didn’t say was how they were going to remedy to situation. Probably because that cost $ & everyone knows @Telus is loathe to spend $ on much but virtue signalling PR campaigns.

@RobShaw_BC @VaughnPalmer @TELUS So these call center agents are Telus employees? Adding agents to answer over a million calls is not going to solve the problem. A supplementary online system would have helped.

@MdmCurt @TELUS @TELUSsupport I’ve had them all. Rogers, bell, TELUS. They all suck bag. I keep switching hoping one of them will listen and fix but it’s been nothing but a frustrating mess for 20 years so I doubt it’ll get any better.

@Emir_Kazic Telus did try to call me a few times trying to offer me something, first the timing was bad and then I just couldn’t take the calls as I was busy.

@maddyshumi @FitCityJordan @Shawhelp Um Telus is worst it took me 3 hours to reach someone lmao.

telus continues to be the absolute ******* worst.

@TELUS why the hell do you have door to door sales people out at 8pm or at all? Wake up my child and I will cancel all my services with you.

@erinxo @TELUS They used to be so good and now they’re in the “IDGAF how we treat customers” category. Used to function like a local service business determined to keep your business and now on par with Rogers and Bell in worst customer service titles.

@leafsweetie @TELUS Terrible

UPDATE! I'M A KRIFFING IDIOT. Old phone bricked, so I bought a new one. A new Verizon phone. For my Telus sim card.

So how bad is lining up for a vaccine at the Telus Convention Centre? I went elsewhere for dose 1.

@NapsAndSarcasm Got a Saturday appt at Telus Centre. Bit of I drive but I don’t mind. Anything in NW Calgary was July. You probably already know but when things settle down, go in and modify your appt and see if you can find sooner
