🇨🇦🏳️🌈 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?

Reg Brick (@hellonature) reported from Colwood, British Columbia@BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.

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.

Revheidi Koschzeck (@RevheidiK) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaHow is it the Province's fault that a million people couldn't follow simple instructions and wait to call for a vaccination until it was their turn? Not having a callback queue was definitely a big mistake which I hope Telus will fix. #blamegame #CommonSense

Jody Klassen (@bellasugarsega) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaI 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.
-
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.

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.

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!

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.
-
H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported from Metchosin, British Columbia@p_barbeau @TuraEmanuela @DrKathleenRoss1 Sorry, I have to ask. How does Telus get away with charging service fees to access longitudinal care then? I don't get how they're allowed to do what doctors cannot.
-
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

Trish Maisonville (@macidpm) reportedThey have a list of TELUS mobility clients. When they call me, they don't mention Rogers, only Telus and say "calling from telus, as a longtime customer we see that you ... " So these learning tools should be shared w those responsible for protecting my privacy at TELUS

John Iosifov ✨💥 Ender Turing | AiCMO (@johniosifov) reportedThree things contact center leaders are measuring instead of deflection: **1. Resolution quality score** — Did the customer's problem actually get solved? Not "was the call ended" but "did the issue recur within 7 days?" **2. Post-interaction sentiment delta** — How did the customer feel after AI vs. human? TELUS found that proactive AI outreach (before the customer calls to cancel) had sentiment scores 34% higher than reactive deflection. **3. Revenue at risk per interaction** — Tag calls by customer segment. A 3-year enterprise contract holder calling about billing deserves a different AI routing decision than a trial user with a password reset.

Abhishek (@Abbieshake) reported@TELUS @TELUSsupport I’ve been a customer for over three years, and my home internet has been unavailable for two weeks despite repeatedly contacting support. This has been an extremely frustrating experience, and I cannot recommend TELUS based on the service I’ve received.

iPilot🅰️ (@OmniAeronautica) reported@bscholl $ASTS Blake Scholl Discovers AST’s Thesis, Then Forgets AST Exists Blake correctly identifies the hybrid terrestrial/satellite future, then skips enough due diligence to declare Starlink the “only good” satellite network while ignoring the company purpose-built for exactly that architecture. AST SpaceMobile has nearly 60 MNO relationships representing roughly 3 billion subscribers. AT&T and Verizon are strategic partners. Vodafone, Rakuten, Bell, TELUS and stc are partners. Vodafone, Orange, Telefónica and Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile’s parent, are now conducting integration testing across Europe using ordinary smartphones and carrier spectrum. The fatal blow to Blake’s premise arrived three months before his post: AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon announced a technology-neutral D2D venture explicitly intended to support multiple satellite providers, preserve existing agreements and increase competition. The carriers’ published strategy is the opposite of surrendering themselves to an exclusive Starlink bottleneck. The products are not equivalent either. T-Mobile still advises using Starlink outdoors with a clear view of the sky and warns that coverage may be unavailable inside buildings, aircraft and other obstructed locations. AST’s giant phased arrays are designed to provide carrier-integrated broadband, including voice, video, apps and “one wall in” connectivity. AST is carrier-neutral infrastructure that aligns with MNOs instead of trying to subordinate them. Blake identified the future, ignored one of its central companies, contradicted the carriers’ actual strategy, and typed “QED?” as if kissing Elon’s *** were a substitute for due diligence.

LET GO Habs (@habby44) reportedMan @TELUS sucks for cable or internet trying to get answers on why your bill jumped $50 for no changes. They are like the friend you lent a $100 and can’t get a hold of!!!!

FK (@dagdakiayaz) reportedHey @Rogers, I requested to move my internet service last month. A technician came out and told me that the Telus cable currently in use is provided by my landlord, while the Rogers cable is buried behind the drywall. Apparently, I now need to hire a third party to demolish the drywall and access the Rogers cable just to get my internet installed. Is Rogers going to help resolve this, or should I just switch to @TELUS?
-
Marty (@FrancisMar86314) reported@kristelxo @TELUSsupport Good luck with Telus! I had my internet account paid and service terminated back in Apr and they sent a bill to collections that took me several calls to prove that I owed them nothing 🙄🤬

Johan N. (@rk8215) reported@wliang is bullish on $AMPG and for a very good reason. Apart of partnership with $NVDA, they have the most insane customer base for $140M market cap: $AMZN, $IBM, NASA, Nvidia, Google + pretty much all the defense primes and US goverment. Amplitech has exposure to O-RAN, AI-RAN, Defense, Space, Satcom and quantum computing. Just to give you few reasons why I like Amplitech: 1. Over $118M in signed LOIs converting to POs 2. Gross margins 33% → 48% in one year 3. Guiding over $50M revenue FY26, only 2.4x forward P/S 4. 10M stock buyback authorized, ATM killed 5. Supplies Telus $66B network buildout 6. Only American O-RAN-certified 64T64R radio 7. Only US maker of 4K cryo LNAs for quantum 8. Only US-listed O-RAN pure play 9. C-UAS and defense pipeline forming 10. Member of AI-RAN Alliance
