-
Revheidi Koschzeck (@RevheidiK) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaHow 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

Sarah Campden (she, her) (@scampden) reported from Saanich, British ColumbiaI 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

michael eso (@mjeso) reported from Sidney, British Columbia@bcgeu @TELUS is a profitable company providing payroll services to the BC Government. Shameful that they are not prepared to treat their employees fairly!

H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported from Metchosin, British Columbia@dewolfe001 @TELUS I really wanted to switch to Telus but everyone I spoke with was so inept I ended up staying with Shaw and their substandard service. I just couldn't imagine having to deal with them as a customer when discussing switching and becoming a customer was so very bad.

Ian holt (@holtyny) reported from Brentwood Bay, British Columbia@TELUS sucks 10mins with @Shawhelp and it's all sorted for Friday installation...

Brandon ::1 (@brandonscript) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@cohix Hmmm I had a pretty bad experience with them years ago, but if my choice is them or Telus idk!
-
Tesla Tours (@tesla_tours) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@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

Finnegan66🍀 (@Finnegan661) reported from Sidney, British Columbia@TELUSsupport A little late? We have been Telus customers for years. The problem has been rectified now. After being on hold on 3 sep occasions for more than an hour. Not great customer service unfortunately
-
Tess van Straaten (@tessvanstraaten) reported from Mill Bay, British Columbia@racquets100 @TELUS I didn’t even have to ask, let alone threaten to leave! I was calling thinking I needed to upgrade my internet plan and maybe cut back TV service and the rep offered the upgrade for free AND the TV discount. Very impressed!
-
Jennifer Ross (@JRossfamilymed) reported from Prospect Lake, British Columbia@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?
-
Mike Richter (@mrichter37) reported from Mill Bay, British Columbia@Shawhelp @ShawInfo I just waited an hour and forty five minutes on hold after being told at the beginning that the wait time was between 35 and 45 minutes. This is the third time I’ve called in the last three days with extended wait time and shitty service. Can’t wait for @TELUS
-
H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported 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.

Reg Brick (@hellonature) reported from Colwood, British Columbia@BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.
-
Jody Klassen (@bellasugarsega) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaI 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.
-
Brent Smithurst (@brentsmi) reported from Colwood, British ColumbiaAll 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!
-
Zach (@zaxbux) reported from Victoria, British ColumbiaDoes 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. 🤬🤯
-
🇨🇦🏳️🌈 Talia M. Wilson #GenXZeneca 🌈🇺🇸 (@olyfilmgirl) reported from Colwood, British ColumbiaSwitching 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?

Sue Stroud she/her 🍊❤️💪🏼 (@suestroud) reported from Central Saanich, British Columbia@PeninsulaNews Who cares? We already know as daily consumers how bad Telus is. They apologized. BCLibs need to find something useful to do.

Tam Jam💲 (@Tamjam3z) reported from Esquimalt, British ColumbiaWhy ******** does telus keep calling me at 745pm every night and hanging up? Get real.

Jim G 🏁🎸 (cońvictèd fèloń) (@DemetriosG) reported@Ayan604 @TELUS @TELUSsupport As if a carrier will call its clients to offer them a better deal! They love that you are stuck in an older plan paying more - and hope you never call in asking for a better rate that would be available to anyone who signs up today.
-
C Lo aka Vandal Savage (@intrikitt) reported@TELUS @TELUSsupport you guys are an ABSOLUTE JOKE. I booked my security and internet services with you since July 17th for today, yet you changed my booking with the bell Rep to a random Friday... I then call you TO CORRECT the issue, which you say you did for today..

PsudoMike 🇨🇦 (@PsudoMike) reportedTelus took a $2.1 billion writedown on Telus Digital this quarter, the arm it built to sell AI and customer service work to other companies. Adjusted income still dropped 26 percent once you strip that out. I've built systems like this. The story sells long before anyone checks if the product holds up. Makes me wonder how many other Canadian telcos are carrying an AI unit priced on the same promise.

Mr. Dan Wolfe Foscarini 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇮🇹 (@competentmen) reported@Starlink UPDATE: Been on @Starlink for the last week 100% ... did some tests, interesting results... Since I use a vpn and wireguard for work, I tested the speed of the connections... Fiber Optic from @telus is way faster without the vpn, but I can't do that for work.... Starlink was faster then the optic on the vpn... I don't really have an idea as to why, I do know that I am physically close to the main trunk lines and main pbx for the area, so that might have a lot to do with it... more switches to deal with in vpn mode via optic, less with starlink. This was actually surprising for me. So as far as wireguard+vpn starlink wins for sure. But... I still have an issue with the billing office being in Canada, and randomizing the mac address is still a problem, but that one might be just the way I have configured things, will look more into it. As for the canada connection, that might be solved later via some changes that are coming for us as a family. we'll see.

Bruce McGonigal (@bruce_mcgonigal) reportedSmart TVs also can be turned on remotely, including the Alexa microphone in your remote control. It can also hack your wifi network and all devices on it. China did it for years in the USA. My FireTV when connected to the computer was changing settings on my PC, when connected via an HDMI cable, BUT NOT TURNED ON. I could tell because my PC screen would change as if a new monitor was turned on and found out it was the TV doing it. So a TV not turned on was still interfacing with my computer without my permission. I also noticed my TV was doing updates despite the fact my TV was not connected to my wifi network. Instead it was doing the updates without my permission, using the 4K Telus digital box it was connected to.

Johan N. (@rk8215) reportedThe pre-market is pricing $AMPG ER report and a company as a complete failure, when the truth is that one bigger order is delayed probably with couple of months which led to company to pull guidance. Those are two very different things. Market cap in pre-market is around $85M right now. Add the $6M of July orders to reported revenue and they have already put together $19M this year and we are in August. So let's put things into perspective here and think. Is all of this really worth a 40% drawdown? Two real issues in this report. One, revenue is delayed. Delayed because of matters not in AmpliTech's hands. That's it, really. Delayed, not gone. But because of this, guidance was pulled. Two, margins compressed quarter over quarter. Management explained it with product mix. More detail on that would have been welcome. Those are the issues. Now the other side. Nothing about the progress they have made is erased. The macro conditions are still in place. They still have their 5G O-RAN radios that nobody else has. They still booked $6 million of orders in July alone. On guidance. They are saying they cannot guarantee $50 million this year. That does not mean they are not making money. They are still making money. I think they will land somewhere around $35 to 40 million. So I don't think we are talking about a big miss here. They just did not want to keep a number out there that they cannot guarantee. I kind of understand it. Maybe they should not have given that number in Q1 in the first place. Some updated number would have been great, I admit. Nothing is gone. The fundamentals are still in place. Customers, orders, LOIs. Everything I have written in my articles about the customer base, macro conditions etc is still truthful and accurate. Telus is not affected by any of this. AmpliTech is still shipping them daily. This was all about the South East Asian MNO. Trust in management is definitely shaken, maybe gone for many of you. Fair. I think management was too naive and optimistic during Q1, but the company is still developing in the right direction, with some hiccups along the way. I am not personally selling at these prices, but I really do understand if some of you are. Reminder, there is a PR coming this morning regarding the Titan Crest IP transfer being pretty much completed and upcoming orders related to it. So it was not all bad on the call. Expectations are reset. I learned a really expensive lesson myself about letting myself get too hyped, but underneath all of this, the company and story is still moving forward. What I see is a messy quarter inside a growth story.

♠️ ACE of Spades™ (@HanyaToderoff) reported@AngelaUnspoken I only connected the dots recently when my phone crashed and I had to replace it. Started searching for the best mobile phone rates and explored the links: Interesting that there are only Three Major Networks and Subsidiaries in Canada Telus Network Family ◦Telus Mobility: Main carrier providing nationwide 5G coverage. Visit Telus. ◦Koodo Mobile: Mid-tier flanker brand owned by Telus. Visit Koodo. ◦Public Mobile: Value/prepaid brand operating on the Telus network. Bell Network Family ◦Bell Mobility: Major national carrier. Visit Bell. ◦Virgin Plus: Flanker brand offering mobile and-home services. ◦Lucky Mobile: Prepaid discount brand. Rogers Network Family ◦Rogers Wireless: Major national carrier. ◦Fido: Popular flanker brand. ◦Chatr Mobile: Discount brand focused on talk, text, and budget data. One Independent / Regional Network ◦Freedom Mobile: Major regional carrier owned by Quebecor. It looks like Virgin Plus at Bell offers the best plan at the best rates and Koodo at Telus plays a lot of pricing games on customers. So few choices in Canada. Wonder how that happened?

Alex Maclean (@canmaclean42) reported@TaraArmstrongBC The bean counters and Wildfire operations are married but sleep in different rooms. The ministry is actually one of the poorer agencies of the government and sort of like the US marines there is rarely all the equipment and personell one wants but generally people are gung ho and will always make do. There are some internal skirmishes and rivalries like contract vs ministry firefighters, or between crews but generally it's friendly and all in all BC has one of the most professional and world class wildfire suppression systems. I can say that because I've been doing it for 10 years and have worked with firefighters from a dozen countries and half the provinces and territories. When it comes to finances it's a different world. For example some idiot thought it would be a great idea for Telus (the phone company) to do the ministries payroll, a universally hated arrangement by crews. After all on a slow year there are a thousand firefighters sitting around on base or doing make work projects on the governments dime. Why bother with additional funding, it doesn't buy votes. On a hot year one does what can be done with resources available until a state of emergency is declared and then the money rolls in and the millions flow. Probably costing considerably more than if sufficient crews and equipment were allocated in the first place. I'm not in management but the solution is probably in training and maintaining an additional 1000 ministry firefighters, expansion of the Para program, a few additional air assets and properly funding the type 2 and type 3 contract resources instead of a chronic loss of professional firefighters leaving the profession because there is no work or incentive to stay on a slow year. On a forest management perspective perhaps allowing green belts (natural fire breaks) to grow instead of spraying glyphosate (dries out the forest) for profit, or hiring enough Rangers to police the logging companies to get them to actually stay in line and manage the forests the way they pretend they do. Current logging practice drops water tables. But that's a conversation nobody wants to have
