John N. Davis (@johnndavis) reported from Toronto, Ontario20200605: National Post : As Ottawa dithers, Canada's major cellular providers shun Huawei ["Telus has not backed out of its February announcement that it would be incorporating Huawei tech into its 5G network likely because it would need to interface with its existing… network"

Rishabh Sinha (@rishabh_snh) reported from Toronto, Ontario@TELUSsupport @TELUS I am having issues with phone. My services aren’t disconnected. Can you help

Stephen Punwasi 🌋 🚀 (@StephenPunwasi) reported from Toronto, Ontario@robnicholsontor Classification is an oligopoly at a high level, but the pressures are monopolistic when they can fail and take out the whole banking system. Bell and Telus were fine, but just a Rogers failure was able to grind the country to a halt.

Mayssia (May) Elajami - Toronto Lawyer (@Mayssia) reported from Toronto, Ontario2/2 even though it was $0.00 that is what companies like Bell & TELUS etc usually charge on the credit card at first to see if it is valid always check everything daily through online banking - it is good I caught it - but sucks now b/c I have to change all my automatic payments
-
Willem de Ruijter (@Willem_Michael) reported from Toronto, OntarioI spent my #snowday speaking with @TELUSsupport service reps. In December 2017 @TELUS and other major Cell companies matched the @FreedomMobile #10GB plans. 14 months pass they raise the fee $10. The price we pay for #Cellphone service in #Canada is ridiculous. @CRTCeng

Garrick The DJ (@GarrickTheDJ) reported from Toronto, Ontario@AstridManson @TELUS @TELUSsupport You too Astrid? Sorry to hear. Hoping “TELUS” resolves this problem soon. There are going to be a lot of frustrated customers out there. #TELUSDown

Peter Muscat (@Peter_Muscat) reported from Toronto, OntarioAlso seeing tweets from people as far away as #Winnipeg saying they have no #Telus service either. #Telusdown
-
jennifer evans 🇵🇸 (@nejsnave) reported from The Beaches, OntarioWe can't even summon enough public pressure to get Bell Telus and Rogers to flip the switch to allow mobile service in the TTC, something they could do in hours, after A CHILD DIED during an assault at a station. After all these stories about "safety" .
-
Sheldon Kerzner (@sheldonbk) reported from Toronto, Ontario@Ani1u7 @TELUSsupport For sure Telus is wrong.. Turning off Wi-Fi turns the feature off because it's something that has to be supported by the cellular network. I don't know what OS he was running. He's our IT consultant so he may be on a beta or something
-
Andrea Gimblett (@andreaLG) reported from Toronto, Ontario@AnthonyFarnell Telus has a service that blocks those calls. You can create an approved list but anyone else has to enter a code.

Madushan 🥭goda Jegatheeswaran ☸️🇨🇦 (M.A.J) (@369ix) reported from Toronto, Ontario@ZAKtalksTECH Yes. I have tested this with a Google Pixel 5 and iPhone 12 Pro. Both didn't any issue with 5G connectivity. Also Telus investigated confirmed that I have 5G and i shouldn't have this 5G connectivity issues. The adviced me to replace the phone.

Ai AM CAVEMAN (@CanadaScamada) reportedThe Northern lights Satellite Fight Rogers played it like a chess grandmaster while Bell, MTS, and Telus fumbled around like they were playing checkers with winter mittens on. In a country as vast and rugged as Canada, where huge swaths of land have zero cell coverage, satellite-to-mobile tech is the future for keeping people connected in the bush, on the water, or up north. Rogers saw the obvious winner and jumped in early with Starlink— Elon Musk’s low-Earth orbit beast with thousands of satellites already zipping overhead. They launched Rogers Satellite in 2025, starting with reliable texting, text-to-911, and emergency alerts on regular smartphones, then rapidly added support for popular apps like WhatsApp, Google Maps, AllTrails, and Messenger. By early 2026, they expanded it coast-to-coast (covering millions more square kilometres), tossed in free trials in places like Atlantic Canada, and just days ago rolled out seamless roaming into the US via T-Mobile’s Starlink-powered setup. No special hardware, no waiting years—real connectivity, right now, with proven performance and clear momentum toward full voice/data. Smart, decisive, and customer-first. Rogers basically turned every phone into a satellite phone where towers fear to tread. Meanwhile, Bell (and its MTS arm) and Telus decided to bet big on AST SpaceMobile, a scrappy Texas startup still scrambling to get its own satellite constellation properly off the ground lol. Bell hyped a “first” demo voice call back in 2025 and promised a 2026 launch, while Telus signed on in March 2026 with some equity investment and ground infrastructure talk. Their pitch? Future broadband, voice, and data… eventually. Late 2026 at the earliest for any real rollout, with a lot of “we’re building it” vibes and fewer actual customers using it today. The contrast is brutal and hilarious. Rogers is out here actually delivering satellite connectivity today—texts, apps, cross-border roaming—while Bell, MTS, and Telus are still waving around press releases about satellites that mostly exist as PowerPoint slides and optimistic timelines. Canadians stuck in dead zones don’t want “coming soon” promises; they want a signal when their truck breaks down in the middle of nowhere. Rogers chose the proven, massive, rapidly scaling Starlink network that’s already lighting up phones across the planet. Bell and Telus? They went with the long-shot alternative that’s playing catch-up. In the race to blanket Canada with space-based mobile service, one carrier sprinted ahead with the rocket ship… and the others are still warming up the backup prop plane. Right now, the industry is laughing: “Bell and Telus picked what?” While Rogers customers are sending “I’m alive” texts from the tundra, their rivals are busy explaining why their fancy future service isn’t quite ready yet. Classic Big Telecom brain fart—overthinking it, missing the obvious winner, and handing Rogers a massive marketing and coverage edge on a silver platter. Oof. That’s gotta sting. - Grok & Ai

dapipi.imba (@DapipiImba) reportedI was told CRA would Never Never Never go after Telus and Rogers to audit their tax, where massive corruption happens

Kam Webb (@KamWebbwo7e) reported@TELUSsupport we spent a total of of three hours on hold. Your reps would periodically answer & then transfer the call to another rep but no one knew how to help us. We are cancelling all our phones and homes services with you tomorrow. Worst customer support. @TELUS
-
RoseAnne Hutchence (@WordsAreCrucial) reported@TELUS @TELUSsupport My telephone bill went up 30% from last month. Service has not improved, I'm receiving NO additional features for this extra cost. Great way to lose a long-time (35 year) client! Thankfully, other service providers offer competitive rates.

Mieke (@MiekeWasHere) reported@TELUS @TELUSsupport you guys are 100% losing customers due to your horrible customer service. Your AI agent is useless on the phone "I understand" humanising comments being repeated is a waste of everyone's time. No option to bypass the 5 mins of BS with AI agent verifying, only to have to do it again. A lack of proper training in your overseas call centre is obvious. Again, with redundant language meant to intimate an effort to manage expectations, but all it's doing it wasting more time on both ends. That a person needs to get transferred to multiple departments to deal with any services screams disorganisation. What should have been a 15-20 minute call (including hold time) was 2 hours yesterday, with no solutions due to errors on your end "we will call you back in 24-48 hours" on a time sensitive matter that your competition was able to address in 15 mins TOTAL time on the phone. Crazy idea, maybe instead of gauging us to keep the upper brass earning way more money than any company CEO deserves...you can bring customer support back to Canada. You know, make jobs for Canadians. DO NOT REPLY TO ME ON THIS.

Dallas Scott (@DallasHansScott) reportedDon’t know why I’m having such issues with @TELUS representatives…getting inconsistent answers and EPP offers - unable to offer what I was promised a few short days ago, I just want to upgrade 😭 #TelusMobility

ᴎiɿɘ (@erinh5995) reportedPeople from Telus must have a humiliation kink because they keep calling me no matter how much i tell them to **** off.
-
Alan (@Alan13105453) reported@TELUSsupport Note this part: "same-size Telus SIM card". Received another CPO iPhone (Same model) that accepted my Telus SIM card after a time-wasting replacement process. Issue should NEVER have happened. Point stands: Telus CPO program is not at all guaranteed.
-
Sharon Daniel ©️🎭 (@sharondaniel91) reportedSo here goes again, @TELUSsupport @TELUS If my contract ends on April 22, 2026, why would you charge me the full price of the service before the contract ends ? For example, if I pay $65, the service should be $113 after April 22, not before. You’re breaking the contract??
-
MIKE 🆅🅴🆁🆂🅰🅲🅴 🗣💨 (@RealMikeVersace) reported@jodyvance @TELUS @TELUSsupport The most frustrating thing when dealing with customer service is th recording telling you to log in and use the app for your request. Trust me, if the request could be processed through the app/site - I WOULD. YOU THINK I WANT TO WAIT ON HOLD FOR AN HOUR TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE???
