-
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.

Sue Stroud she/her 🍊❤️💪🏼 (@suestroud) reported from Central Saanich, British Columbia@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.

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!
-
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
-
Bill Perry (@Captnwilly) reported from Sidney, British Columbia@TELUSsupport how do we get Telus technical support to call us at home?
-
Jennifer Ross (@JRossfamilymed) reported from Prospect Lake, British Columbia@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?
-
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.
-
David Martin (@SailorsDavid) reported from Pender Island, British Columbia@TELUSBusiness I’m done with Telus, I’ve been with them for over 20 years. This latest fiasco with Telus email being down for 3 days was completely unacceptable and then to kiss and make up with a $10 discount is an insult. Find the missing e-transfers!! I’m going to Shaw
-
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.
-
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.

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!
-
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
-
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

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

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. 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 constellation scale 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 the bulls have an answer to this?

Bob Cotter 🇨🇦 (@gibsonsgolfer) reported@jodyvance @TELUS I finally discovered that it would cost me a lot to cancel Telus with current contracts running until late 2027. I suppose I will have to wait until then.
-
Dave Makay (@MakayDave) reported@Tintie4 @garymasonglobe @TELUS Yeh I switched to Roger’s last fall They are so amazing that many times between Vancouver and Edmonton they had no service including our overnight stay in Valemount.
-
Wes (@AFKnownWes) reported@jodyvance @TELUS It’s bigger than you think. Under new CRTC guidelines, all of Canadas Telecom’s are to switch to an App based service system. All staff are going to be canned, no more call centres. Rogers is ****** too!
-
Bad Pitt (@thebaddestpitt) reported@TELUS @garymasonglobe Don’t do DMs. Do it publicly so we can shame your brutal customer service.
-
Steve Finlay (@SteveMFinlay) reported@TELUS Crisis averted! Service is much more reliable on the way back.

Olyth (@olyth_terminal) reported$AMPG FYI this is not even including the AI-RAN market which is projected to add another $10b in revenue to the $20b from O-RAN by 2030. So that's a market that went from basically 0 to $30b in a little over 5 years. With 6G and AI Tailwinds to drive it another decade or more. You're probably wondering why this industry is growing so fast. It's not primarily the infrastructure upgrade to 6g. Yes it will help speed up the transition to advanced 5G and 6G BUT there's one main reason. Mobile Network Operator CEOs are fed up with vendor lock-in. They're tired of being dependent on a handful of suppliers with little leverage on pricing, innovation speed, or customization. O-RAN and AI-RAN give them the ability to mix hardware and software from multiple vendors. That drives down costs and unlocks new efficiencies and revenue streams. Right now the vendors know there's no competition. How do you think that's going for the MNOs during negotiations? O-RAN and AI-RAN change this. MNOs are speed running to alternatives at this point; the CAGR on O/AI-RAN prove this and $AMPG has proven their radios bring the results CEOs are looking for. The inflection point is this year. This quote from the Telus VP on using Samsung and Amplitech radios should tell you everything you need to know about how MNOs feel about single vendor lock in. It's stuck with me since I read it. It drives my conviction in $AMPG. “That’s our current mix. And it’s really important for us to have that deployment: if it [multi-vendor Open RAN] remains theoretical. It’s not good enough for us.” Do you feel conviction in Bureaus' sentiment? It should stick with you when you think about where $AMPG is headed.

Jody Vance (@jodyvance) reportedToday was NOT the day to FAIL my TV viewing, again @telus.
-
Mattitude (@Mattitude80) reported@garymasonglobe @TELUS They are the worst I have come across. A few years back it took my countless hours on hold and 6 months of repeated calls to setup a new business land line. It's almost as if their staff get paid by making simple tasks as hard as possible

Gary Mason 🇨🇦🇺🇦 (@garymasonglobe) reportedBeen a client of @TELUS for decades. Our home has been without internet service for six days. I thought someone was coming today to fix the problem. But I got it wrong - it's three Mondays from now, not today.
