  @telus our internet speed has been operating like it’s 1998. You have put us 23 years into the past. We have called your disgraceful support 4 times and have waited on hold for close to 5 hours only to receive support from humans with no solution. When are you going to fix it?

  Hey @TELUS @TELUSsupport Stop billing people for wireless service from the time you ship the SIM cards and then put them in regular mail. I’m not paying for a week of service on 4 lines while Canada Post gets around to delivering them.

  @hurrrdurrr @juliekrobe I mean, Copeman still exists, though owned by Telus now so not entirely. Also, you know full well the Canadian health care system would treat her and presumably she’s got travel insurance.

  @keithbaldrey Good for @Telus to remedy the issue with the call centres and finding ppl to man the phones. Just curious why Telus can’t respond to actual customer concerns that quickly & remedy issues that arise. Funny how that works.

  I love how Telus wears "we have the best customer service" on its sleeve and it still billed me AFTER I CUT MY SERVICE. I hate your service even more without even using it. That's a new low for a company in my books.

  @TELUSsupport @pattibacchus Telus is brutal! They convinced us that their service was better so we went to them after many happy years with Shaw, then instantly had issues they wouldn’t resolve and now we are stuck with them unless we pay 3 years of penalties! Counting the months to go back to @support_shaw

  I’ve been with @TELUS since they were Clearnet in 1995 and I’ve always enjoyed them but there is literally nothing they could do to redeem themselves from the year of garbage internet which they charged us $200 to “fix” making bricked unusable internet.

  @TELUSsupport Was on hold for the ‘next available’ customer service agent at TELUS for just over 3 hrs today and finally gave up… (they said when I called my wait time would be ‘up’ to an hour)… guess they work on a different time clock then most.

  Is @Novusnow down AGAIN for anyone else in Yaletown? Super frustrating- second time in a month. Going to have to seriously consider switching to @TELUS or @Shawhelp - major problem when you’re working from home.

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport #piktv #telusplus can you please fix telus+ this is getting ridiculous

  BdblE (@MsYouDoYou) reported 46 minutes ago from Burnaby, British Columbia

  @TheFalconer @TELUS Also **** off. As a business owner who processes transactions, I pay insane fees for everything I do. And so do the clients. And probably the staff. Pay your own fees you dumb *****.

  Hi @TELUS, we do not have access to internet in the last couple of hours. Kindly fix this! Location- UBC, Vancouver!

  @BuddJacket @BigNasty6oh4 @BigNasty6oh4 This. You just play them off each other and watch them beg for your service like the corporate bloodsuckers they are. Telus all day for TV 📺 be never had complaints about your internet just watch the upselling. Bloodsuckers all of them so.

  Mat Thomas (@EmptyUK) reported 1 hour ago from Vancouver, British Columbia

  The inane @TELUS 1.5% credit card bill charge is just another gouge. I pay them so much money already; it’s time to look elsewhere. Also, my actual cell phone coverage is pretty terrible even in my apartment. #CashGrab

  @TELUSsupport @WestVanDistrict As a longtime TELUS mobility x2, home security, Internet 50 x2 & Optik TV customer, I think it’s a fair question to ask why #PureFibre isn’t offered to @WestVanDistrict? After 4+ years of “coming soon”, I’m politely asking for a straightforward answer. Thank you

  @vancitysportswx It is a good route but not capable of handling the inevitable increase in volume, cell coverage is terrible #telus #rogers need to come up with an immediate upgrade plan

  @TELUSsupport You know what? Enough of your bs apologies. Canadians want you to answer the phones, provide good service & to hire locals. Simple stuff! #telus

  @globeandmail Telus is such a dog **** company, we need US competition. Canadian telecoms barely have any canadians working for them

  @Derekrants They're also in all three levels of law enforcement: Toronto Police, Ontario Provincial Police, and RCMP. They work in postal offices, Service Ontario, Service Canada, private security companies, communication companies (Rogers, Telus, Bell, etc).... They are everywhere.

  @markmandel007 @WestJet Westjet wanted cheap labor they got it. The agents in Telus El Salvador have a mediocre English level, they can't even understand a spelling, they work with "scripts" unnatural customer service, then they grow after 1 month of training without any experience in airlines at all

• 
  Lionidas (@JR98726272) reported 13 minutes ago

  @MaretJaks We are doing the same now, not answering the door unless it is a neighbor. Random rail-thin black and brown men in their early twenties are knocking on our door claiming Unicef, Rogers, Telus, etc, i broken English. They look sketchy AF.

  Peter Girnus 🦅 (@gothburz) reported 26 minutes ago

  I am the Director of Voice Experience Innovation at Telus International. Six months ago, my team deployed a real-time accent harmonization layer across our Southeast Asian call centers. The agent speaks. The system listens. The customer hears Ohio. I keep a demo reel on my laptop. Before and after. The before sounds like a woman in Manila who went to university in Quezon City and has been resolving billing disputes for nine years. The after sounds like a woman who might be in a strip mall in Columbus. Same words. Same syntax. Same problem-solving. The only thing we change is the part that makes the customer hang up. The metrics are on slide eleven of my board deck. I'm looking at it right now: Customer satisfaction: up 23 percent. Average handle time: down 40 seconds. Escalation requests: down 31 percent. My VP asked what drove the improvement. I said, "Reduced communication friction." Which is technically true. The friction was that our customers don't like talking to people who sound foreign. We didn't fix that. We made it so they never have to know. The system processes voice in 11-millisecond intervals. It maps phonemic patterns to General American English midpoint targets. Internally we call these targets "anchor voices." The anchor voices were generated from 4,000 hours of NPR pledge drive recordings. We picked NPR specifically because listener studies show it's the accent American consumers trust most with their credit card number. (The agent hears themselves the whole time. Their own voice in their own headset. They just know that somewhere in those 11 milliseconds, a machine decides that what they actually sound like isn't something a customer in Phoenix will tolerate for the length of a billing inquiry.) Employee 7734 in our Manila hub asked to hear the output. We played it for her in a breakout room — the one with the motivational poster about "Bringing Your Whole Self to Work." She listened for six seconds. Pulled her headset down around her neck. Went quiet. Then she said, "Is that what they need me to be?" Her CSAT scores are in the 94th percentile. She clocks in every morning at 7:45. I should explain the economics because they're elegant: we hired agents in the Philippines at $4 an hour. We spent $11 million on a system that makes them sound like they cost $35 an hour. The delta is the product. We don't sell accent correction. We sell the gap between what a worker costs and what a customer requires them to sound like. The system doesn't work in reverse. If a customer with a heavy accent calls in, we don't smooth their voice for our agents. Harmonization flows one direction. Toward the customer. Away from the worker. Always uphill. Three agents requested transfers to text-based channels last quarter. They said they felt "disconnected from their own calls." My HR partner coded it as an engagement issue. Recommended a team outing. Bowling, I think. Every morning, 14,000 agents open their mouths and a machine makes a decision about what comes out the other end. They perform the labor. We perform the correction. The customer performs their preference. Nobody performs anything wrong.

  @mario4thenorth Telus, can’t Telus anything. That’s been my slogan for them for the last 15-20 yrs, after they tried lying to me on what an issue was with my service.

  @globeandmail Does it improve their service? Cause it's pretty lousy. @TELUS Filipino call centre is the worst. @amazon Filipino call centre is the best customer service.
