-
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.
-
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

Barbara Darling (@BarbaraDarlin20) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@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

Sherry Merriam (@sherryella77) reported from Victoria, British ColumbiaGoing on day 8 & still no email on iPhone. Can’t get any of the old emails I need for this #militarymove What an absolute shit show. Im so mad I could spit nails. The “I’m sorry’s are getting super freaking old. Day 2 with no call back from TELUS even tho Im in queue #telusfail
-
Jenn Tranmer (@vicmomdoc) reported 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.
-
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

Anthony Kershaw (@audiophilia) reported from View Royal, British Columbia@TELUSsupport @TELUS thx Dave in Tech Support (via phone). The hour long hold was worth it. Total professional and very effective. Did he know his stuff! 👍👍
-
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.
-
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. 🤬🤯
-
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
-
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!
-
Finnegan66🍀 (@Finnegan661) reported from Sidney, British Columbia@TELUS I am absolutely disgusted as a long time customer. 3x now having to reschedule and be on hold for over an hour. How is that customer service???? 🤔 only to be told now that the rescheduled appointment 'may' go forward jesus
-
Fully Vaxed Gordie Logan (@GordieLogan) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaOh @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.
-
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
-
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!
-
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
-
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!
-
Penny Holt (@canukgenie) reported from Saanich, British Columbia@gillrh They are the worst, along with mobile phone plans. You should have been a fly on the wall where Chris took on Telus. Not pretty.
-
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.
-
Derek Lewers (@critiklthinking) reported 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

Armando Asuncion (@qmanT) reported@Richard_sfu @TELUSsupport I always use social media to vent my frustration because of the lousy support you get from customer service. This is Telus man! Nothing good to say.

Johan N. (@rk8215) reportedBREAKING: $T.TO EARNINGS REPORT: FY26 CAPEX INCREASED FROM $2.3B TO $2.6B. FOCUS ON WIRELESS NETWORKS AND NETWORK INFRA UPGRADES! $AMPG just got best possible news from their biggest client 🔥 Telus just reported their earnings and increased their CAPEX from $2.3B to $2.6B. The old guide implied roughly $970M of H2 spending. The new guide implies roughly $1.27B. And the new CEO listed where money goes from here: the wireless networks, network infrastucture upgades and site enablememt is on the list. Telus just raised the one line that pays its equipment suppliers. I think I know one of those suppliers. Long AmpliTech 🔥🚀
-
Chris Helik 🇨🇦 (@helik_chris) reported@TELUS I did not ask for a new service. After 20 years of paying for my security system, you would think that you have all the information you need to update my system.
-
Torina (@Torina1036429) reported@TELUS you need a service so people needing temporary suspension between house moves can pay a fee and when you get the new house restart service!
-
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.
-
M.Brown (@MsMJBrown) reported@SidewalkSeedli1 @MrStache9 You are correct. But I have another year before the deal is over and then my cell service will go up to$45. Still $70 cheaper than Telus. I had Telus home service. It would drop off at least four times a day and I lose the tv as well. Very irritating when you are watching any sport or movie. I’d gladly pay the extra for reliability.
-
Beefhouse (@Tom_Selleck) reported@ODSPoor Also it's an old ****** Telus box (redundant statement since Telus implies ****) even the cable box upstairs stutter lags every time you change a channel. **** Telus.
-
FROMLOWHTOHIGH (@FROMLOWTOHIGH88) reportedPlease share this around. @TELUS @TELUSsupport, explain how it’s acceptable that after months of trying to get my internet fixed, all I’ve ended up with is a much higher bill for the exact same poor service. My internet is still slow, constantly lagging, and barely usable.

𝒯 (@trriixsha) reportedthis is what the telus app tried to do, the issue is scheduling, nothings available

Frank (@FamilyFarns) reported@rhum01 As a Telus customer I can confirm it's a shitco, It's working on the penny stock status
