  West Coast Coco Mermaid 🧜🏾‍♀️ (@sherryella77) reported 18 minutes ago 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.

  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.

  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.

  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?

  @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.

  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.

  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!

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

  @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

  Has anyone’s data not been working with Telus lately? We switched back from Virgin because virgin was garbage, and now I’m having issues with Telus again. 🙄

• 
  Sporting Vancouver (@vansport) reported 11 minutes ago

  **** Rogers. Switching everything to Telus. Might look into Starlink options.

• 
  Shawniño (@sasieiro) reported 12 minutes ago

  @ipawskatyt Virgin Plus is Bell. I don't mind Telus. Until their customer service tells you they forgot to tell you about a 39 dollar outstanding bill that is now gone to collections because, well, they just can't be arsed. Canada has the worst telecoms set up in the world.

  The most overlooked part of the Maxim interview isn't Telus $T.TO ordering more than expected and wanting more and more configs. It's what Fawad said about SCALING. Because he casually answered the number one bear question about $AMPG. And almost nobody noticed it. THE BEAR QUESTION. "How does a company that counted ~47 employees in its last annual report deliver Tier-1 carrier volumes?" Fair question. Every micro-cap hardware story lives or dies on it. Now listen to the CEO answer it, unprompted. THE MATH HE VOLUNTEERED. "You're talking about tens of thousands of radios that are going to be used by any single MNO at a time". That's his own sizing of ONE carrier win. Thousands of radios per month or per year. He's not scared of that number. He designed the company around it. THE MODEL. LNAs and defense-grade radios: designed and built in the US. Commercial radio volume: contract manufacturers, structured so AMPG can, his words, "scale up when the demand goes high, and we can scale down when the demand goes low". And the punchline, verbatim: "we don't create a tremendous amount of overhead, and we're cost-effective enough to provide a very large quantity in relatively little time". Translation: capacity is RENTED, not owned. No factories to build before the revenue shows up. No factory overhead bleeding through down-cycles. POs land, capacity scales up. POs pause, costs scale down. The giants carry factories through winters. AMPG carries designs. THE SECOND SCALING LAYER almost everyone missed. Every MNO runs different spectrum. That used to be the moat protecting incumbents: a custom radio per carrier, years per win. AMPG spent its R&D budget killing that moat: "Each MNO has a different frequency... but the beauty of our product is that it's configurable". And then the sentence that IS the thesis: "As soon as that adoption happens, it's just going to spread". One carrier win isn't a contract. It's a template. THE THIRD LAYER: where this goes. Asset-light capacity + revenue scaling = operating leverage. The CEO connected the dots himself: "Revenue has been increasing. Next stage is profitability". That's not hopium sequencing. That's the mechanical consequence of the model, if the revenue holds. AND IT'S ALREADY BEEN STRESS-TESTED. This isn't a whiteboard. This model has already put 2,000+ radios into a Tier-1 network. It's shipping daily against orders that EXCEED the $40M LOI. And it absorbed a real shock this year: war-related logistics interruptions, disclosed by the CEO himself. Status: back on track. A capacity model that survives a war disruption during its first scaling year got tested by reality, not by PowerPoint. Everyone watched the Telus reveal. The quiet part was the CEO explaining how a micro-cap absorbs a Tier-1's demand without building a single factory. Market cap: micro. Capacity: elastic. That's not an accident. That's the design. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  I don't know if it's $AMZN. I don't know if it's $NVDA. I don't know if it's Telus. But my bet? High odds it drops as soon as TOMORROW. Here's what I DO know, on the record: $AMPG's management already told us Q2 is coming in "definitely much higher" than Q1. And here's why tomorrow, or any morning this week, wouldn't surprise me one bit. The company has promised news sitting in the chamber (new carrier deals signaled, straight to POs). They just killed their ATM and authorized a buyback, which you only do with everything buttoned up. After doing numbers. Why would you kill an ATM and authorize a buyback if you don't know the money you'll need? To be crystal clear: that's my bet, not information. Nobody outside the company knows the date, I'm not suggesting they'd manufacture news to support a price, and deals land when they land. But if the incentives and the calendar were ever going to line up, it's this week. Now, read this thread. This is the kind of detective work FinX needs more of. The chain he builds: Amazon's logo quietly appeared on $AMPG's customer wall in June. No press release ever explained it. AMPG launched a satellite LNB line in late 2024, covering the Ka band, the hard one. Amazon Leo runs on Ka. Leo has to scale from a few hundred satellites toward 3,236 by 2029, and a constellation is useless without ground gateways. Ka gateways need exactly the low-noise front end AMPG now builds. Amazon NDAs its suppliers hard, so silence proves nothing either way. Is that confirmation? No. And credit to Johan for labeling it as speculation. That's how it should be done. But here's why I'm not stressed about WHICH name it is. Look at the counterparties stacking up around this sub-$200M company: ➟ Amazon: on the official customer wall, product fit for Leo. ➟ NVIDIA: world-first open-source AI-RAN demo on its platform. ➟ The Tier-1 carrier (deduced to be Telus): deploying today, 2 of 5 radios per sector. ➟ A Fortune 1000: five-year LNB supply agreement. ➟ A Fortune 500: a $2M record order. I don't need to know which one moves the needle next. Management already told me the needle moves. Q2 guided much higher. Deals expected this quarter or next. Dilution off the table. The market wants a name. I'm fine with the number. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  @tsxman The company I work for is a customer of Telus Health, and the pension plans I am a trustee for use Telus Health as pension actuaries.
