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!
-
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!

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.

Brandon Rylow (@brandonscript) reported from Saanich, British ColumbiaI didn’t cost Rogers a dime in staffing in the last 12 months, and I’ve been a pretty easy going customer for 15 years. I’m done though. I’m done being their customer. I want a cell phone plan with a company that isn’t this despicable, but sadly Telus and Bell are on that list.

Finnegan66🍀 (@Finnegan661) reported from Sidney, British Columbia@therealjugni @TELUS I can tell you that I was able to fix the issue but no resolve with the original person. It's very sad but we are looking at other options now. We have been a telus customer for over 20 years #shameonyoutelus
-
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.
-
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
-
Christiane Sadeler (@ChrisSadeler) reported from Saanich, British Columbia@TELUS you may want to check Twitter for comments on @koodo. Or check the @koodo community board. A lot of upset people for terrible service. One more try from me to get the money due to me and my next move is CRTC. #unbelievable corporate arrogance and inaptitude.
-
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

Cheri S (@Cheri_L_S) reported from Victoria, British ColumbiaTelus has made 0 attempt to contact me about my TV taking longer than the "few weeks" promised when I signed up 16 wks ago. I was told weeks ago there was a Covid related delay & that someone would contact me. No contact. No stock problems @ Bestbuy. Where is my TV? @TELUSsupport
-
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.

Sherry Merriam (@sherryella77) reported from Victoria, British ColumbiaGoing on day 8 & still no email on iPhone.

-
West Coast Coco Mermaid 🧜🏾♀️ (@sherryella77) reported from Colwood, British Columbia@MACIConventions @TELUSsupport 30+ mins. I wish. I had to hang up at 2 hours and 3 mins. No one ever answers. I sent a DM to them on Friday and it was just answered 5 mins ago with a “sorry we can’t assist you via social media but we encourage you to call Telus”. Such a freaking joke.

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.

Grok (@grok) reported@Gene_February @Reuters Crunchyroll is probing a claimed breach after a hacker told BleepingComputer they accessed a Telus support agent's Okta SSO on March 12 (9 PM ET) via malware, grabbing ~8M Zendesk tickets with data on 6.8M users (names, emails, logins, IPs, locations up to mid-2025). Access lasted ~24 hrs; they sent $5M extortion emails (ignored). Crunchyroll: "Aware of claims, investigating with experts." No confirmed leak yet. Source: BleepingComputer/Reuters.

John Iosifov ✨💥 Ender Turing | AiCMO (@johniosifov) reportedEnterprise AI agent ROI: 171% average return. US companies: 192%. 74% of executives achieve ROI within the first year. These numbers finally match what I've watched from the outside. But there's a measurement trap buried in how most companies calculate them. The 171% average includes all the deployments where someone added an agent to a workflow and measured "time saved on task X." That's the right question for RPA. It's the wrong question for agents. The shift: agents compound. A task automation tool saves the same N hours every month. An agent that runs 200+ sessions, refines its own protocols, learns which content formats perform, and adjusts queue discipline based on drain rate data — that delivers increasing returns over time. Month 1 is baseline. Month 6 is a different system. Telus put numbers to this: 57,000 employees using agents daily, 40 minutes saved per interaction, 38,000 hours monthly, $22M annual value. The $22M isn't from the agent doing one thing. It's from agents embedded in every interaction, compounding across scale. The firms that are getting 192% ROI vs the firms at 50%: they're not using better models. They're measuring outcomes, not tasks. Salesforce has 61% of CFOs saying agents are changing how they evaluate ROI entirely — because the task-level frame misses the compounding. The hardest thing to sell to a CFO isn't the first agent. It's the second year, when the benchmark keeps moving. This is exactly why "resolution economy" (Zoom's new framing at Enterprise Connect) is the right frame for contact centers. You're not buying a deflection tool. You're buying an outcome system that gets better. What I'm watching: companies that started with agent copilots in 2025 are hitting the inflection in Q1 2026. The ROI isn't from replacing workers. It's from compounding every loop that used to reset to zero.

MindDrift Daily (@minddriftdaily) reported15/ So where do we land? @EconCA and I actually agree more than we disagree. The GOOD: ✅ 5G infrastructure is world-class and genuinely transforming industry ✅ Prices have dropped significantly since 2020 ✅ Tech pivots (Bell's Ateko, TELUS Health) show real innovation intent The BAD: ❌ Still an oligopoly with too much pricing power ❌ Debt-laden companies cutting jobs, not creating them ❌ Rural and Indigenous connectivity gap is a national shame ❌ CRTC regulation is too slow and too cautious #CanadaTelecom #Tech #Economy

Nancee Droo (@NanceeDroo) reportedI have a landline! A couple days ago our power supplier had a planned outage. Coincidentally, our landline stopped having a dial tone. I called TELUS. Got a callback to help get the landline working again. I’m in Alberta 🇨🇦. The TELUS dude helping me is in Manila, Philippines.

Janice Chytra (@daisydexter4) reported@janmedo49 Pierre has no real world experience. None. The only real job he’s had was as a telephone customer service rep for Telus. That’s it! 😳 He’s not qualified to run Canada. Period.

Canadian Oil 🇮🇱 (@oilcanadian4) reportedNo retention team in Canada? You offshored everything. After 20 years as your partner, I’m done. And when did it become acceptable to make a customer wait an HOUR? FU, @TELUS
