Telus Outage in Sidney, 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.

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

@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.

@TELUSsupport how do we get Telus technical support to call us at home?

@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!

@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

@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

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

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

@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.

@mssinenomine A couple years ago Telus came & wired our co-op for fibre optic cable using similar tactics. They run the wires to the units but you choose to use them or not. Terrible that they are doing this during a pandemic, though, & being so aggressive! Unacceptable.

Keep in mind, that lady is no spring chicken, which means her father was a vulnerable senior being taken advantage of. How many other Seniors are being double-billed? Will #Telus get NASA & MENSA members to help check that too since they claim they can't because it's too hard?

So a 12 year old had a phone that kept charging $28 multiple times per day every time they used their phone outside of home. Shouldn't there be some shared responsibility? Shouldn't @TELUS have some checks in their system to protect the customer from errors like this?

@mssinenomine This freaks me out bc telus was at my building the other day. 3 workers came outside and were talking amongst themselves about how to treat ppl who were rude to them when they showed up. They were walking away so I i didnt get it all. I'm under contract with Shaw for 2 more yrs

@Leenerrr We live in St. Albert and have had telus fibre optic for few months now. We’ve had telus for internet and tv for years, and I wouldn’t recommend switching from SHAW. We have significant wifi issues and customer support is a hellish experience!

@klaszus And now Telus sucks Albertans dry through cell phone rates and gov’t contracts.

@TELUS hey why is the internet down I north Edmonton?

Telus is so trash wtf. I paid my bill why are they reporting to the credit bureau that I didn’t ??????

@mssinenomine Not giving consent to the installation was not really a clear option. I did “agree“ to them coming into my apartment and installing something. However, I’ve never switched to Telus and that wasn’t seemingly required, despite there being pamphlets in the lobby about the new rate.

@mssinenomine All of the big ones (Rogers, Telus and Bell) use similar tactics. They are HORRIBLE people to deal with.
