  How 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

  @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.

  Oh @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.

  @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.

  Switching 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?

  All 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!

  @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

  @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.

  @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.

  I 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.

  @BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.

  @TELUS sick of AI bullshit customer service. Getting charged higher fees even though my contract isn't up until next year. Wasted an hour trying to contact customer service.

  @Penkauskas87735 My home wifi disconnects whenever I interact too much on X or TikTok, but I haven’t had any issues with mobile data - all Telus - scary

  @TELUSsupport @brndntlrnlsn TELUS changed my internet plan from 1.5 Gbps to 1 Gbps without my knowledge or consent. There was no notice, no explanation—nothing. If I ask them to fix it, only results is they charge me $200, no improvement after the repair.

  It’s fairly obvious at this point that $AMPG and Telus are collaborating on Telus’ 66 billion dollar network investment through 2030. Yes, if $ampg gets even 1% of that cake their market cap quadruples. (Not even including the dozen other projects they have going on) But what if that’s not all they are contributing to Telus? Telus is now hiring waves of AI Voice Data Specialists to train next-gen voice AI. What could a wireless operator company possibly need AI voice data specialists for? You call your local pharmacy/carrier/small business and you get a ****** prompt operator you have press 1, 2, or 3 five times in a row to get to who you want to reach. It takes an hour to complete your phone call. This is the Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. My inference is simple. Telus is going to revamp and wipe out the competition of IVR (which is a ~6 billion/year industry btw) Telus operates in over 35 countries. Guess whose radios get to be the backbone of this entire operation? $AMPG Data center tailwinds too lol this isnt a bubble $NOK $ERIC $IREN $NBIS $DGXX

  @TELUSsupport I have a bad experience with Telus Support over the weekend. A Philippino woman who said her name was Casey. I told her to do nothing on my account and today I got a $255 charge that I didn't authorize. I don't want to renew my contract.

  @TELUSsupport And now Telus has again shut down my business account without any approval. The account is in good standing. Even better, no one at Telus can address a business line outage on the weekend.

  I subscribe to Sportsnet through my TELUS television package. Every month I pay for your channels, yet because I live in Calgary and support the Vancouver Canucks, I am expected to purchase a full Sportsnet+ Premium subscription simply to watch out-of-market games.
