BdblE (@MsYouDoYou) reported from Burnaby, British Columbia@NoLogsNoCrime I will try this. We had Telus internet, too. But my strata won’t let fibre and Telus makes the other service useless so you’ll upgrade and we couldn’t run the business so we had to switch. Pretty sure that’s not solved so no going back.

DeeDee - Living the dream! 👑 NO DM’s. (@deedee_living) reported@ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport I’ve been with Telus since I got my first cell phone many years ago. I called them and a person from India asked me for my social insurance number. I hung up on them and called a supervisor and cancelled my service.

Vancouver Island Guy 🌊 (@VanIsleInvestor) reportedBNN Andrey Omelchak: $T Telus I'm worried about the dividend, the payout is high and problems with leverage. They have a leadership transition and a ex Bank CEO taking over. I expect they cut the dividend. Look to reset and see the CEO look at new growth initiatives.
-
Jayem 🇨🇦 (@LXXIIpercent) reported@ProvoGal01 @TELUS @TELUSsupport I never answer calls from Telus. I know it'll be some foreigner so I won't understand a word they say. If I call them & get a foreigner I ask for a supervisor. Supervisors speak proper English. I think when you ask for a supervisor it gets transferred back to someone in Canada.

Alvin "everything is completely satire" Alberta (@AAlberta1905) reported@CoryBMorgan Haha. I'm about to get starlink. The telus hub for rural internet is garbage. The lag times for watching live streams is so bad. My kid is losing his marbles getting timed out on his games. Done.
-
MRD (@MRD87694463) reported@VanIsleInvestor I wonder if Telus shares are also down because all of it's BC assets are on un-ceded territory and potentially no longer Telus' Telus is a serious proponent of reconciliation. Maybe they'll just hand it all over? Since they've been using the land without permission. *pokes bear

Ray Gaur (@raygaurca) reportedWe signed up for a three year contract to replace our month-to-month service for business effective November 28, 2025. It was our understanding that Anatoli Jr. Goriansk @TELUS the Account Manager was going to handle the switch, but for some reason he did not cancel our month-to-month service. Now our account has been suspended because of non-payment of the month-to-month service. Can you please assist. @TELUSsupport

Genius White (@ThomasLK007) reportedHey @TELUS ********* please tell paying Camadian customers on your network why there is a new ******* phone scam every week and where are these Indian cockroaches getting our phone numbers? I can only get rid of the rats when I tell them I'm gonna eat them alive.

Ai AM CAVEMAN (@CanadaScamada) reportedWinnipegers have had enough. For years, major telecom providers like Bell MTS and Telus (along with others in the big telecom club) have dominated the market in Manitoba with high prices, unreliable service, frequent outages, and frustrating customer support that often leaves people on hold for hours or bouncing between agents. Customers routinely report surprise bill increases, slow or inconsistent speeds, poor coverage in parts of the city and surrounding areas, and endless hassles when trying to fix simple issues. Many feel taken advantage of—paying premium rates for subpar, sometimes insecure connections that struggle during peak times or bad weather. Complaints have piled up nationally, with the big providers frequently topping lists for billing disputes, contract problems, and overall poor service. It's a classic case of limited competition leading to complacency: pay up or put up with it. But relief is on the horizon. Starlink is stepping in as a game-changing alternative, delivering high-speed satellite internet that works almost anywhere with a clear view of the sky. No more relying on aging cables or spotty towers—users in and around Winnipeg and rural Manitoba are reporting faster, more consistent speeds (often 100+ Mbps down), lower latency for streaming and gaming, and far better reliability than traditional options in areas where wired service has lagged. Setup is straightforward with self-install hardware, there's no long-term contract lock-in for many plans, and it's proving especially valuable for those fed up with the old guard. While pricing isn't the absolute cheapest in dense urban spots with fibre available, it often undercuts or matches what people were paying for inferior service—and the freedom from constant headaches makes it feel like a bargain. The message from frustrated Winnipegers is clear: the days of being held hostage by shoddy, overpriced telecom are numbered. Plastering their names on the local hockey teams heads as a mark of ownership will fool none. Starlink is here to give people real choice and better connectivity. Time to point that dish skyward and leave the old frustrations behind. -Grok & Ai
