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.

Bill Perry (@Captnwilly) reported from Sidney, British Columbia@TELUSsupport how do we get Telus technical support to call us at home?
-
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

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

Reg Brick (@hellonature) reported from Colwood, British Columbia@BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.
-
Sue Stroud she/her 🍊❤️💪🏼 (@suestroud) reported from Central Saanich, British Columbia@PeninsulaNews Who cares? We already know as daily consumers how bad Telus is. They apologized. BCLibs need to find something useful to do.
-
🇨🇦🏳️🌈 Talia M. Wilson #GenXZeneca 🌈🇺🇸 (@olyfilmgirl) reported from Colwood, British ColumbiaSwitching 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?
-
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!
-
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.

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!
-
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
-
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
-
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.

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

-
Bill Brasky (@Polkameister) reportedBigger question (to me) is why are taxpayers subsidizing them to help increase the profitability for Telus shareholders?
-
A (@Jupadia1) reported@TELUS if your going to call and bug me to switch service. Then at least have a human on the other end making the call. I should not have to pause and wait around for the computer to tell a human in a different country to pick up the phone and talk.
-
T Saunders (@TSaundersql) reported@mario4thenorth Telus, can’t Telus anything. That’s been my slogan for them for the last 15-20 yrs, after they tried lying to me on what an issue was with my service.
-
Bud (@Budwiser620) reported@MarkJCarney Telus stock is way down, is this just another financial bailout?
-
OlaOlu🌹 (@DRealOlaOlu) reported@ChainPysch @zaddy_moh @richsongocrazy It’s a lot…****** are locked in on the update years ago. Fake IDs, fake verifications, fake workers... Having multiple accounts and risking your IP. People making a lot from AI **** are so busy to be here telling people it’s soft. Check out Telus, Toloka.ia to grab my point
-
Marc Udeschini (@DukeMarcude) reported@MarkJCarney @TheStalwart Steel or "steal"? Didn't Telus and Carney just grab 300M for work never delivered?

heiba9866 (@heiba986627073) reported@KaileaandTim @WestJet Westjet wanted cheap labor they got it. The agents in Telus El Salvador have a mediocre English level, they can't even understand a spelling, they work with "scripts" unnatural customer service, then they grow after 1 month of training without any experience in airlines at all

Peter Girnus 🦅 (@gothburz) reportedI am the Director of Voice Experience Innovation at Telus International. Six months ago, my team deployed a real-time accent harmonization layer across our Southeast Asian call centers. The agent speaks. The system listens. The customer hears Ohio. I keep a demo reel on my laptop. Before and after. The before sounds like a woman in Manila who went to university in Quezon City and has been resolving billing disputes for nine years. The after sounds like a woman who might be in a strip mall in Columbus. Same words. Same syntax. Same problem-solving. The only thing we change is the part that makes the customer hang up. The metrics are on slide eleven of my board deck. I'm looking at it right now: Customer satisfaction: up 23 percent. Average handle time: down 40 seconds. Escalation requests: down 31 percent. My VP asked what drove the improvement. I said, "Reduced communication friction." Which is technically true. The friction was that our customers don't like talking to people who sound foreign. We didn't fix that. We made it so they never have to know. The system processes voice in 11-millisecond intervals. It maps phonemic patterns to General American English midpoint targets. Internally we call these targets "anchor voices." The anchor voices were generated from 4,000 hours of NPR pledge drive recordings. We picked NPR specifically because listener studies show it's the accent American consumers trust most with their credit card number. (The agent hears themselves the whole time. Their own voice in their own headset. They just know that somewhere in those 11 milliseconds, a machine decides that what they actually sound like isn't something a customer in Phoenix will tolerate for the length of a billing inquiry.) Employee 7734 in our Manila hub asked to hear the output. We played it for her in a breakout room — the one with the motivational poster about "Bringing Your Whole Self to Work." She listened for six seconds. Pulled her headset down around her neck. Went quiet. Then she said, "Is that what they need me to be?" Her CSAT scores are in the 94th percentile. She clocks in every morning at 7:45. I should explain the economics because they're elegant: we hired agents in the Philippines at $4 an hour. We spent $11 million on a system that makes them sound like they cost $35 an hour. The delta is the product. We don't sell accent correction. We sell the gap between what a worker costs and what a customer requires them to sound like. The system doesn't work in reverse. If a customer with a heavy accent calls in, we don't smooth their voice for our agents. Harmonization flows one direction. Toward the customer. Away from the worker. Always uphill. Three agents requested transfers to text-based channels last quarter. They said they felt "disconnected from their own calls." My HR partner coded it as an engagement issue. Recommended a team outing. Bowling, I think. Every morning, 14,000 agents open their mouths and a machine makes a decision about what comes out the other end. They perform the labor. We perform the correction. The customer performs their preference. Nobody performs anything wrong.

Nikki (@Nikki98212136) reported@PWHL_Ottawa Can we watch the pwhl final on any TV channel in Canada? Telus and the CBC are horrid! I got off work early and can't find the game. Did Telus switch to the Center ICE mark up channel for the final?
