Brad (@PigeonLakeBrad) reported from Red Deer County, Alberta@TELUS An hour and fifty minutes in to holding waiting to speak to a representative because you billed my account $20 for roaming charges which were incurred when my wife and I walked "behind the falls" at Niagara Falls while on vacation - on the CANADIAN side! You are the worst!

Alvin "everything is completely satire" Alberta (@AAlberta1905) reported@CoryBMorgan Haha. I'm about to get starlink. The telus hub for rural internet is garbage. The lag times for watching live streams is so bad. My kid is losing his marbles getting timed out on his games. Done.
-
OrSh (@oreoshitwagon) reported@ryangerritsen I just canceled Telus internet yesterday (contract over) and I’m so relieved to be free from their overpriced garbage service. I would’ve much preferred the online route had it been available. They offered me same service at half price locked in for 5 years. *******.

Aphy Sykes (@AphySykes) reported@MahyJ @Bell Seriously just switch to Telus while youre a fresh customer. Promise you'll save a lot of money in the long run. 20 years with Bell and for whatever reason they choose to be the most expensive provider in Canada.

K.J. (@KSJaswal97) reported@ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Happened to me too, was calling about my internet services and the person who picked up said he was from the Telus customer service in India I legit couldn’t believe that they have a department in India of all places. Why do they have people there managing Canadian accounts

neo (@vtripath1) reportedNever believe a @TELUS store rep and read their agreements before you sign any contract with them. The rep will lure you saying your billing amount won’t change during the whole contract period but their agreement would say something else. And that’s where you are trapped.

Ai AM CAVEMAN (@CanadaScamada) reported@Bell_MTSHelps 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

Fat & Furious (@Monthon92467113) reported@ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Called the customer service of my bank yesterday. Some trailer trash answered the phone, I hanged up right away. I called again, another trailer trash answered the phone again, I hanged up again. Called third time, a filipina answered the phone. And I was like, thank God.
