  @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.

  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.

  @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 22 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

  @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 27 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

  @telusmobility so glad I spent my entire 30 minute lunch on hold with you.. had to hang up as I got to go back to work (something your staff apparently doesn’t do) simple question with 0 answers available online for it.. ppl say I shld leave TELUS, considering it now

  H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported 39 minutes ago 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.

  @PeninsulaNews Who cares? We already know as daily consumers how bad Telus is. They apologized. BCLibs need to find something useful to do.

  Mike Richter (@mrichter37) reported 45 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

• 
  Finnegan66🍀 (@Finnegan661) reported 49 minutes ago 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

• 
  Jody Klassen (@bellasugarsega) reported 53 minutes ago from Langford, British Columbia

  I 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.

  @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

  Telus 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

  @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.

  Switching 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?

  ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reported 8 seconds ago

  Could a company worth less than $200M be the first name in AI-RAN in Canada? Everything points to yes. The company: $AMPG. Partnered with $T.TO. Precision first, house rule: carriers deploy, vendors supply the layers. The exact claim, full thesis just published: Canada's first AI-RAN deployment will run on AmpliTech radios. Here's the board. 👇 THE ONLY HORSE. Canada has one carrier capable of deploying AI-RAN: Telus. Forced by Ottawa to rip out Huawei, it became open RAN's truest believer. ~5,000 macro sites converting. Half by 2027. It runs Canada's FIRST AI-powered RAN controller, live since September. It's building Canada's ONLY sovereign NVIDIA GPU factories. The first one sold out. 60,000+ GPUs planned. Federal MOU signed. Bell runs a closed RAN. Rogers is selling data centers. One address. ALREADY ON THE TOWER. On every converted Telus open RAN site, each sector runs five radios. Two are AmpliTech's. Commercial. Tier-1. Today. Chosen, per Telus's own VP, for financial strength: Nasdaq-listed, supplying the federal government and NASA. And June 25, on camera: direct supplier, confirmed. Orders EXCEED the $40M LOI by $5-7 million. Telus wants new configurations. Fawad says "which we'll be announcing". THE THESIS, built on the bear case. Telus's VP said in November: no multivendor massive MIMO in the network yet. The 64T64R "has limitations". The customer's own objections. On the record. Now watch the 2026 ladder, rung by rung: ➟ Northeastern validation in May. ➟ PlugFest interop in June. ➟ NVIDIA's AI-RAN ecosystem and NTIA's VALOR in July. Each rung maps onto an objection. And here's why the market cap is the point, not the problem. AMPG doesn't need to out-muscle Samsung or NVIDIA. Telus built its network so radios hang off OPEN interfaces, chosen by a VP who rejects lock-in on the record. In a closed network, the giant wins the AI-RAN jump automatically. In an open one, a sub-$200M company can win a slot. That's not a loophole. That's literally what open RAN was invented for. THE CHECKPOINTS, because a thesis without falsifiers is a pamphlet: ➟ Canada's public certification register (ISED REL). The 64T64R prints there before any press release. Anyone can watch it. ➟ The teased Telus configurations. ➟ August earnings, where conference words become audited numbers. ➟ The red flag, written in advance: November with no cert and no news, and I'll say this thesis took damage. In those exact words. Do not forget, Fawad said that "Telus coming for more and more" and waiting for new configurations. Which one? The market can keep debating the story. I'd rather watch the database. Full thesis, every claim linked. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  ChinoAleman (@chinoalemano) reported 8 minutes ago

  My $AMPG plan for the coming weeks. Let's start with what I'm holding: ➟ A company with zero long-term debt. ➟ ~$40M in cash. ➟ A signed LOI pipeline over $100M. And growing. ➟ 48% gross margins. ➟ A flagship radio proven inside NVIDIA's AI-RAN ecosystem. Now the plan. First thing I'm waiting for: NOKIA EARNINGS, July 23. I expect Nokia to guide well on AI-RAN, the sector, and everything it shares with AMPG. That would be bullish for the whole lane. Same logic as when MSFT reports datacenter growth and every datacenter name moves. Category guidance lifts category players. __ After that: TELUS EARNINGS, early August. Maybe they announce something. And given who's on record as their radio supplier, with two of five radios on every converted site, you can guess who'd be involved. And even if they announce nothing, we can deduce plenty: their capex pace on the 1,000-site program IS the demand curve for their vendors. Silence teaches too. __ Then: AMPG EARNINGS, mid-August. They've already signaled Q2 comes in above Q1. And remember everything already on tape from the CEO: ➟ Telus won't stop asking for new configurations, "which we'll be announcing." ➟ Orders came in ABOVE the $40M LOI. By $5-7 million. ➟ The Southeast Asia LOI grew, from $78M to over $100M. ➟ They're now going STRAIGHT to POs, from these MNOs and newer ones, with demand growing. ➟ And scaling isn't a problem: capacity is rented by design. Up when demand rises, down when it doesn't. His words. Everything I just listed is public. On camera or in releases. If you hold this stock and haven't watched the full Maxim interview with the CEO, fix that today. 28 minutes. The plan is simple: three earnings dates, each one a checkpoint. I'll grade every one in public, hits and misses. That's how this works. Oh, and between those dates? Something could always drop. The CEO teased announcements on camera. And some of us read government databases for fun. The calendar has checkpoints. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  @TELUSsupport Finally got a hold of a human. Have had techs here past 2 days, they don’t know why I can’t get internet. Or if I do, don’t know why it magically stops working around 8:45am Was a customer with Shaw prior, never had an issue once. I’ve only ever had issues with telus.

  - On 8/6/25, I also just so happened to be going northbound on SWRT; though I heard (& caught a clip of) other people's phones getting bad WPAs from ~20 km away at Osborne Stn, the Telus cells in the area behaved properly at that time. It wasn't until Nairn that I busted 116222.

  Me: I can’t access the internet and it’s clear the modem is the issue- there have been no physical changes of where the router has been for the past five years and it’s worked fine and it stopped randomly at 9pm on a Wednesday. Telus: we’re going to waste an hour on the phone
