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

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.
-
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!
-
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
-
Lloyd Mildon (@LloydMildon) reported from Oak Bay, British ColumbiaOn my @TELUS optik TV I now have to watch ads before I am permitted to move on to the programming. This is horrible. I’m the customer. I’m the guy paying the bills. Just stop it, @telus. @telussupport
-
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
-
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
-
Ian holt (@holtyny) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@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.
-
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
-
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!
-
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

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.

Anp🅰️nman (@spacanpanman) reported$SPACE: A common refrain I've heard from short sellers, skeptics, space consultants and legacy players is that XYZ space investors are absolutely delusional. You know what, they're absolutely right. We are 100% delusional. Can you imagine holding $ASTS for almost 6 years through a constant barrage of FUD and the stock price getting shorted down to < $2? And then being delusional enough to keep buying all the way down AND THEN continuing to hold and buying on the way up? You know who else is delusional? Abel Avellan. This mfer created the direct-to-cellular satellite broadband category in 2017 against all the haters, naysayers and legacy clowns who said it was impossible. At the low point AST SpaceMobile was worth $700M with only $100M in the bank. Throughout the lowest lows AND highest highs, Abel has never sold a single share all these years. This guy must be insane?!? It takes a special kind of crazy to be a founder like Abel and it takes a special kind of crazy to have the conviction, fortitude and patience to be invested alongside him. Let's tip the hat to these deluded strategic investors as well: AT&T, Verizon, Google, Rakuten, Saudi Telecom, Bell Canada, Telus and American Tower Delusional? Crazy? Insane? Yes that's us.

Tegan (@tegan4618) reported@mcgregis @status_is_down We have starlink, never an issue. But phone, Roger's, what an awful company I did have Telus, no issues till in all hubs wisdom switched me to Roger's ugh. Seriously considering a landline, not sure what we were suppose to do were we to have an emergency
-
Zenith Zalapski (@nitwitschool) reported@RoneelkRo In my area it’s Telus and they don’t give a single **** about upgrading us beyond 2010 era internet so my only choice is Elon, which is a surprisingly good service as much as it pains me.

Rich Peter (@peterli34923561) reported$ASTS --- Japan’s government plans to issue up to ¥1.48 trillion (approximately $912 million) in large-scale public subsidies for a satellite communications project led by Rakuten. Rakuten is a core early investor and strategic partner of ASTS. The two firms are advancing a joint venture (JV) in Japan to secure full regulatory approvals for commercial direct-to-device (D2D) operations. This government subsidy effectively covers ASTS’s Asia network deployment costs head-on, drastically easing market concerns over the company’s cash burn trajectory. The firm successfully launched BlueBirds 8, 9 and 10 in mid-June 2026, and all three satellites are operating smoothly in orbit. Shortly after, ASTS officially announced plans to deploy BlueBirds 11, 12 and 13 in early August 2026. Why the August Launch Matters This batch will carry ultra-large antenna arrays spanning 2,400 square feet. ASTS previously hit a peak download speed of 98.9 Mbps on unmodified consumer smartphones via satellite connectivity; the new August satellites are projected to double this maximum throughput. 1. The World’s First Truly Gap-Free Cellular Network Legacy satellite communications systems including Iridium and early Starlink require custom antennas, ground terminals or dedicated satellite handsets. $ASTS ’s proprietary technology enables billions of existing unmodified 4G/5G smartphones worldwide to connect directly to orbital satellites. The innovation instantly erases all terrestrial coverage dead zones across oceans, deserts and mountainous terrain. 2. Landlord-Style Model Locked In With Global Telecom Giants $ASTS does not compete for end users against carriers like T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon — instead, it acts as their critical infrastructure ally. The company has executed binding commercial agreements with top-tier global operators: AT&T, Verizon, Japan’s Rakuten, Canada’s Telus and more. These carriers willingly share revenue with ASTS to deliver seamless connectivity to subscribers operating in off-grid regions. This business model pushes customer acquisition costs (CAC) nearly to zero, and will generate massive high-margin recurring cash flow once the full satellite constellation is operational. 3. Ample Cash Runway to Alleviate Cash-Burn Skepticism As of the latest quarterly filing, the company holds $3.5 billion in cash on its balance sheet versus only around $2.9 billion in long-term debt. This robust liquidity provides unconstrained capital to ramp launch contracts and satellite manufacturing through 2026–2027, eliminating near-term risks of dilutive equity offerings or distressed asset sales. Management’s official guidance pins full-year 2026 revenue between $150 million and $200 million, with revenue poised to approach $1 billion in 2027 as the network activates commercially.

Kelly Rehel (@kelly_rehel) reported@Telus @TELUSsupport why is it taking 14 days for a technician to come to my house to fix my internet? 14 DAYS!!! I work from home and you’re a national corporation. Get it together!!

Temple 8 Research (@Temple_Eight) reported@ChairmansLedger Let's expand the argument then. Starting with what ASTS gets right. While ASTS has a small lead on broadband connectivity their real advantage is spectrum access via carrier exclusivity and they've locked up nearly 60 mobile network operator partners covering over 3 billion subscribers AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone, Rakuten, Telus, Bell, etc. SpaceX operates more than 9,000 satellites around 60% of everything in orbit. ASTS has roughly 9 including recent launches, and is trying to accelerate to about one launch a month to hit 2026 targets. Analysts are skeptical it can sustain this. Each BlueBird Block 2 is a 6,100 kg spacecraft, far more complex and expensive per unit than a Starlink satellite and AST can't launch anything close to the pace of Musk. SpaceX owns the rockets while ASTS has to buy rides on Falcon 9, New Glenn, etc. SpaceX's hardware iteration speed is, as one analysis put it, a real and durable advantage, and if their next gen satellites deliver on data performance, the competitive gap narrows while the scaling gap stays insurmountable. SpaceX already took the biggest carrier prize in the US being T-Mobile. So the carrier moat cuts both ways. SpaceX obviously has access to vast capital after IPO, with Starlink generating ~$10.4 billion of revenue in 2025. ASTS is pre-real-revenue at scale ($70.9 million in 2025) and funding itself with convertible debt and dilution. Do you really want to hold through heavy short to medium term dilution over years??

Temple 8 Research (@Temple_Eight) reportedI hope the $ASTS boys like dilution because you're going to need a lot of it to fund your ambitions.

M.A. - "Losers always whine about their best" (@LayThemBare) reportedHave any of the ISP like Bell or telus spoken against c-22? Or are they onboard with the digital tyranny? Asking because I am going to outright cancel my entire service and go with an VOIP home phone and smoke signals for encryption

don't chew with your mouth open (@kFaNsUpAfLy) reported@davidmgustin @TELUSsupport Hey! I've been a @TELUS customer for over 10 yrs and the problems I've had with them the last cpl is absurd. Check your bill every month for costs u dont owe, like cloning your services and charging you dble!! I used to be happy, I no longer am.
