  Brent Smithurst (@brentsmi) reported 5 minutes ago from Colwood, British Columbia

  All 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!

  Why ******** does telus keep calling me at 745pm every night and hanging up? Get real.

  @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.

  @bcgeu @TELUS is a profitable company providing payroll services to the BC Government. Shameful that they are not prepared to treat their employees fairly!

  @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

  Finnegan66🍀 (@Finnegan661) reported 16 minutes ago 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 Rylow (@brandonscript) reported 16 minutes ago from Saanich, British Columbia

  I 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.

  @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?

• 
  Zach (@zaxbux) reported 17 minutes ago from Victoria, British Columbia

  Does 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. 🤬🤯

• 
  Christiane Sadeler (@ChrisSadeler) reported 18 minutes ago 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.

  @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

  Fully Vaxed Gordie Logan (@GordieLogan) reported 29 minutes ago from Langford, British Columbia

  Oh @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.

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport as long as this keeps going on I will advise our new neighbours to go to @Shawhelp a lady yesterday was having problems with telus to move in next month so now she is calling shaw this morning. Shaw as been brilliant.

  Tess van Straaten (@tessvanstraaten) reported 35 minutes ago 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!

• 
  Mike Richter (@mrichter37) reported 37 minutes ago 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

  Ian holt (@holtyny) reported 48 minutes ago from Brentwood Bay, British Columbia

  @TELUS sucks 10mins with @Shawhelp and it's all sorted for Friday installation...

  @mackenzie_moira @unionwill @TELUS Even without the pandemic, for the amount the gouge from us service should be far better whether phone, tv, internet etc.

  Sarah Campden (she, her) (@scampden) reported 52 minutes ago from Saanich, British Columbia

  I 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

  Tesla Tours (@tesla_tours) reported 54 minutes ago 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

  @BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.

  Lil Whip (@LILWHIPMUSIC) reported 2 minutes ago

  @Rogers you need to upgrade your upload speed. telus can go up 10GB Up And Down and you can only do 200MB up like you seriously need to make your upload speed faster. i chose rogers because its more reliable than telus.

• 
  Rob B (@BoppinBobby) reported 3 minutes ago

  @TELUS Tsn and CTV 1, basically all the world cup feeds have no signal.

• 
  Jay A (@rodice11) reported 6 minutes ago

  Reporting missed payment for the same bill. The damage this has caused my credit standing has been doubled. @telus and the credit agency both reporting an open debt, both reporting missed payments neither of which were charged off. I am hiring a lawyer and escalating this.

• 
  R. Weyland (@WeylandR) reported 7 minutes ago

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport Hey Telus. You guys are now worse than an airline. Your product (internet in this case) is less reliable than checked bags and now you wait longer on hold to resolve issue. And likely an average of 4 phone calls and 2 technician visits to solve the problem.

• 
  Dezskills29 (@dezskills29) reported 11 minutes ago

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport I'm tired of your marketing where you spam call people using Canadian numbers yet the people are calling from ******* India call centers. @telus have the ***** to hire Canadians. Can't understand a word they say how about support local main reason I left.

  @ColleenEJordan1 @jodyvance @TELUS Thanks for bringing this up … we pay for a Premium Service and getting the services we are paying for is nearly impossible!!!

• 
  Nysha Sharma (@nysha1818) reported 16 minutes ago

  @TELUS lost husband last year, tried to save the house , couldn’t. Wanted to cease the services until I find a place may be for 2-3 months. @telus wants over $550 to cancel. No compassion, no humanity???? Calls over calls, telling the whole situation 100th time, no solution

• 
  jodi birdsall (@jay_elbee) reported 17 minutes ago

  @jodyvance @guyfelicella @TELUS A friend had issues. She said that the equipment was old and somehow there was a glitch that allowed a customer in Alberta to delete their recordings. It was a mess. She eventually switched to Rogers. She’s much happier, cheaper too. I have Rogers. It’s ok. Usually a reboot fixes

• 
  Sam Ganguly (@sg_sam_sg) reported 18 minutes ago

  We have had the worst experience with @TELUS After cancelling a Bconnect service, confirming by their reps that it is cancelled, we are still getting billed a year after. No matter who we call at Telus, they all ghost us! Absolutely the worst customer service @TELUSsupport

  Most of this map is noise to the average investor. But one name is quietly sitting on the layer everything else depends on, and almost nobody sees it. That name is $AMPG. The one that I think will do a parabolic move like $SIVE or $AAOI. Let me tell you the whole story. Look at where it sits: Connectivity & RF. The re-shored, certified domestic alternative for 5G, SATCOM and defense. One name in its lane. Here's why that lane is the one almost nobody is pricing correctly. Look at every other layer on this list. Photonics. Compute. Physical AI. Drones. Space. Energy. Every single one of them, at some point, has to move its signal somewhere. Data has to travel. And the layer that moves it through the air is RF, the radio. It's the connective tissue under the entire map. No radio, nothing else talks to anything. Now the problem that makes this a thesis and not just a product. America does not make its own radios. The companies that build the RF backbone of modern networks are all foreign: Nokia (Finland), Ericsson (Sweden), Samsung (Korea). The Chinese ones, Huawei and ZTE, are banned outright on national-security grounds. So the most powerful country on Earth, about to wire its economy, its defense and its AI into a wireless network, depends on other countries for the physical layer it runs on. That is a strategic vulnerability. Washington knows it. That's the gap $AMPG fills. AmpliTech is the only American company that designs and commercializes a 64T64R Massive MIMO O-RAN radio. That's the highest-capacity radio configuration in the modern stack, and it's the physical hardware that open AI-RAN runs on. Not the only one on Earth, Nokia and Ericsson make them too. The only American one. In a decade defined by re-shoring critical tech, that single word, American, is the whole point. And this isn't a pitch deck. It's already real. It's deployed at Telus, a Tier-1 North American carrier, running on live Open RAN sites alongside Samsung. It's a Strategic Partner in Open6G, the wireless hub funded by the US Department of Defense and run by Northeastern, sitting in the top partner tier right next to NVIDIA, Dell and Qualcomm. Its radio was the physical unit in the world's first open-source Massive MIMO AI-RAN demo, running with NVIDIA's Aerial software. And it was the only American-designed 64T64R radio to pass multi-vendor interoperability at the O-RAN ALLIANCE Global PlugFest. Then look at who shows up on its customer wall: NVIDIA, Amazon, IBM, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, L3Harris, NASA. You do not land defense primes by accident. Those relationships take years of qualification before you're even in the room. That's a moat you can't fake. Now the fundamentals, because a thesis needs a business under it. 48% gross margins, up from 33%. Debt-free. $50M revenue guidance for the year (and they hit their prior guide, they don't have a habit of underdelivering). And managament promised even more. Real backlog, real LOIs. This is a company that already makes money doing this, today, with the radio. And stacked on top, for free, two pieces of optionality. AI-RAN, where towers become intelligent edge nodes, the demo with NVIDIA points at exactly where this goes. And quantum, where AMPG makes the cryogenic amplifiers superconducting quantum computers need for qubit readout (it's delivered proof-of-concept units to names like IBM and Google). I'll be honest about both: optionality, not the core thesis. Cheap call options on top of a real business, not the reason to own it. Here's the honest framing that actually makes this stronger, not weaker. $AMPG is not a chokepoint nobody can replace. AI runs without it. Other radio makers exist. I won't pretend it's irreplaceable, because it isn't. What it is, is the sovereign alternative. The American option in a layer the US increasingly refuses to outsource That's a strategic preference backed by policy and funding, not a technical monopoly. And strategically favored can re-rate a sub-$1B company just as hard as technically indispensable can. And the timing isn't subtle. The US just restricted its most advanced AI models from all foreign nationals, even allies. When a country starts walling off its critical tech from its own friends, it tells you exactly how it's going to treat the physical layer its AI economy runs on. It's going to want that made at home. So in a map full of chokepoints and physical inputs, $AMPG is the layer that moves the signal, re-shored, certified, and American. The screens get the attention. The infrastructure gets the returns. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡
