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

  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

  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

  @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?

  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.

  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.

  @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.

  @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.

  @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.

  🇨🇦🍁 (@kniffy24) reported 6 minutes ago

  Telus Med access, can your customer service at least pick up calls? This is becoming more of an issue now and it’s not great pushing clinic times without explanation as to why! @TELUS @TELUSsupport

  News must be a public service. The closure of radio news 1130 is criminal.Local newspapers were torched over a year ago, along with the radio traffic station. In MetroVancouver, a major city of 3 million, it has gone silent. Companies like Rogers and Telus are ANTI-Communications

• 
  Jamie Billingham (@JamieBillingham) reported 11 minutes ago

  @TELUSsupport i’m trying to cancel an order and Telus expert chat refuses to pass on the request and is demanding a phone number. I cannot take a call right now. I do not want a call back. I want to cancel an order. Any hope of my not cancelling it, has disappeared.

  @MrCharlesky This telus, doesn't work in Nigeria,I tried it one certain time but I was asked for passport

  @jabo_vancouver @Cootes4MVP Nothing we can do about that unfortunately. We don't have enough telecommunications options as a consumer. It's either Telus, Rogers or Bell. Two of those three are ****. Telus might be as well. But at least they're based on the west coast. **** Rogers and Sportsnet.

  @TELUSsupport @TELUS do you want to fix the cable issues today? Or shall we wait until the game is over and I’ve missed it? How hard it is to supply a steady service for people who are paying for it? Get a grip!

  Not good when you walk into a @TELUS authorized repair shop, tell them the issues & before they even see the phone their first question is "is it the Galaxy S26?" @SamsungMobile just released this phone a few months ago & it's already known to repair shops to have issues 🤦

  KDMANN (@KDMANN8) reported 21 minutes ago

  @Trevor_Neufeld What are people going to switch to? Telus or something else? I need ideas as I am with Rogers and it’s time to switch. I pay for a product and listen to fan 960 and this move has consequences. I have been a Shaw, now Rogers customer for 23 years and I am finally going to switch.

  Could a company worth less than $200M be the first name in AI-RAN in Canada? Everything points to yes. The company: $AMPG. Partnered with $T.TO. Precision first, house rule: carriers deploy, vendors supply the layers. The exact claim, full thesis just published: Canada's first AI-RAN deployment will run on AmpliTech radios. Here's the board. 👇 THE ONLY HORSE. Canada has one carrier capable of deploying AI-RAN: Telus. Forced by Ottawa to rip out Huawei, it became open RAN's truest believer. ~5,000 macro sites converting. Half by 2027. It runs Canada's FIRST AI-powered RAN controller, live since September. It's building Canada's ONLY sovereign NVIDIA GPU factories. The first one sold out. 60,000+ GPUs planned. Federal MOU signed. Bell runs a closed RAN. Rogers is selling data centers. One address. ALREADY ON THE TOWER. On every converted Telus open RAN site, each sector runs five radios. Two are AmpliTech's. Commercial. Tier-1. Today. Chosen, per Telus's own VP, for financial strength: Nasdaq-listed, supplying the federal government and NASA. And June 25, on camera: direct supplier, confirmed. Orders EXCEED the $40M LOI by $5-7 million. Telus wants new configurations. Fawad says "which we'll be announcing". THE THESIS, built on the bear case. Telus's VP said in November: no multivendor massive MIMO in the network yet. The 64T64R "has limitations". The customer's own objections. On the record. Now watch the 2026 ladder, rung by rung: ➟ Northeastern validation in May. ➟ PlugFest interop in June. ➟ NVIDIA's AI-RAN ecosystem and NTIA's VALOR in July. Each rung maps onto an objection. And here's why the market cap is the point, not the problem. AMPG doesn't need to out-muscle Samsung or NVIDIA. Telus built its network so radios hang off OPEN interfaces, chosen by a VP who rejects lock-in on the record. In a closed network, the giant wins the AI-RAN jump automatically. In an open one, a sub-$200M company can win a slot. That's not a loophole. That's literally what open RAN was invented for. THE CHECKPOINTS, because a thesis without falsifiers is a pamphlet: ➟ Canada's public certification register (ISED REL). The 64T64R prints there before any press release. Anyone can watch it. ➟ The teased Telus configurations. ➟ August earnings, where conference words become audited numbers. ➟ The red flag, written in advance: November with no cert and no news, and I'll say this thesis took damage. In those exact words. Do not forget, Fawad said that "Telus coming for more and more" and waiting for new configurations. Which one? The market can keep debating the story. I'd rather watch the database. Full thesis, every claim linked. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡
