Barbara Darling (@BarbaraDarlin20) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@MirandaWiebe @TELUS Same here 4 hours and someone was supposed to call me back within 30 minutes twice now and I'm still waiting. Really bad customer service and I started at 730 this morning

Brandon ::1 (@brandonscript) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@cohix Hmmm I had a pretty bad experience with them years ago, but if my choice is them or Telus idk!
-
Brandon Rylow (@brandonscript) reported from Saanich, British ColumbiaI didn’t cost Rogers a dime in staffing in the last 12 months, and I’ve been a pretty easy going customer for 15 years. I’m done though. I’m done being their customer. I want a cell phone plan with a company that isn’t this despicable, but sadly Telus and Bell are on that list.
-
Zach (@zaxbux) reported from Victoria, British ColumbiaDoes anyone have any idea why some @Microsoft web properties (recently LinkedIn and Visual Studio Marketplace) randomly refuse connections? Appears to only be an issue on @Telus IPv6. Mobile data and IPv4 are not affected. 🤬🤯
-
Reg Brick (@hellonature) reported from Colwood, British Columbia@BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.
-
Sherry Merriam (@sherryella77) reported from Victoria, British ColumbiaGoing on day 8 & still no email on iPhone. Can’t get any of the old emails I need for this #militarymove What an absolute shit show. Im so mad I could spit nails. The “I’m sorry’s are getting super freaking old. Day 2 with no call back from TELUS even tho Im in queue #telusfail
-
Sarah Campden (she, her) (@scampden) reported from Saanich, British ColumbiaI haven't used it yet, but for those that have, is Telus Health fee based service? I think I may need an antibiotic and the thought of waiting outside a non-existent walk in clinic is awful #bcmed #yyj
-
Ty_soup (@tysoup) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@telusmobility so glad I spent my entire 30 minute lunch on hold with you.. had to hang up as I got to go back to work (something your staff apparently doesn’t do) simple question with 0 answers available online for it.. ppl say I shld leave TELUS, considering it now
-
Jody Klassen (@bellasugarsega) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaI 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.
-
Sue Stroud she/her 🍊❤️💪🏼 (@suestroud) reported from Central Saanich, British Columbia@PeninsulaNews Who cares? We already know as daily consumers how bad Telus is. They apologized. BCLibs need to find something useful to do.
-
H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported from Metchosin, British Columbia@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.
-
Jennifer Ross (@JRossfamilymed) reported from Prospect Lake, British Columbia@DrRitaMc @cpsbc_ca @BCFamilyDoctors Hahahahha is that us after death? Maybe that is a new service telus health could offer? Communication with the dead doctor?
-
West Coast Coco Mermaid 🧜🏾♀️ (@sherryella77) reported 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.
-
H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported from Metchosin, British Columbia@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.
-
Brent Smithurst (@brentsmi) reported from Colwood, British ColumbiaAll 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!
-
Lloyd Mildon (@LloydMildon) reported from Oak Bay, British ColumbiaOn my @TELUS optik TV I now have to watch ads before I am permitted to move on to the programming. This is horrible. I’m the customer. I’m the guy paying the bills. Just stop it, @telus. @telussupport
-
Revheidi Koschzeck (@RevheidiK) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaHow 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
-
Derek Lewers (@critiklthinking) reported from Langford, British Columbia@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

I Love Myself ~~ Pooja (@poojabnf) reportedBreaking this down so it makes sense: BREAKING: Telus and feds to build big AI data centres in B.C. 1/
-
hcky123 (@dundatt1989) reported@acupforusplease @shanelpratap @RobertParizek This is exsctiy right I think the Apple TV deal is more but gets shifted into another marketing arm so the accounting trickery may confuse the issue Also isn’t telus shirt sponsor about 3 million a year alone ?

NeilXbt (@neil_xbt) reportedCANADA JUST SAID NO TO SENDING ITS AI DATA TO AMERICAN SERVERS. Telus is building a sovereign AI network in Vancouver. Three sites. 60,000 GPUs. 150 megawatts of NVIDIA-powered computing capacity by 2032. All of it Canadian-owned. Canadian-operated. Funded in part by the federal government specifically to keep Canadian AI data, intellectual property, and competitive advantage from leaving the country. The first facility in Quebec already launched. Already fully booked. Already ranked on the TOP500 list of the world's fastest supercomputers. Vancouver is next. The race to build sovereign AI infrastructure is not just happening in the US and China. Canada has just entered it seriously. Follow @neil_xbt for more AI infrastructure signal that tracks where the real compute is being built.

Bill Brasky (@Polkameister) reportedCarney literally just announced a $25 billion slush fund offering his wealthy investor friends a chance to profit off Cdn. owned infrastructure. Yesterday Carny enriched Telus shareholders with another $2 Billion taxpayer financed gift. You are an idiot & fraud to not see this.
-
Trendstockers (@Trendstockers) reported@telus big pet peeve of mine is having to call in to a service provider because they have made severe errors on a bill. Makes me think this nonsense is intentional because the average person doesn't catch it.
-
ArisGritzalis (@AGritzalis) reported@LuckyStuey Can you please explain to me as an expert Why VZ chose ASTS Why VODAPHONE chose ASTS Why TELUS chose ASTS Why STA chose ASTS?? The list is long You consider all of these stupid? I read them NOT U or COOK WAKE UP AND SEE
-
Reece Martin (@RM_Transit) reportedHow is AI policy going in Canada? Well *Telus* is going to be building a huge data center in DOWNTOWN VANCOUVER (how is this even slightly compelling) and needs federal government help . . . We are in trouble. . .
-
Preet Singh (@indersinghp) reported@bears_aware I fail to understand how this is an immigrant’s fault. Bell Telus Roger’s are hiring them to do this, point is that economy is in distress,all the companies are trying adopt methods that may be unusual to the Canadian culture. So stop shooting the messenger, target the source.
-
hcky123 (@dundatt1989) reported@JayJanower You are saying on Matt show you have it on authority Caps lost 40 million per year ? Aside from this year player wages were 14 m so total budget at max for caps would be 40m ish. that’s poor/lazy reporting to think they lost that much ? 🍎Tv is 8m/yr Telus is 4 m/yr

Glen Bell (@GlenBellWX) reported@TELUSsupport @TELUS Is there a problem with telus home billing agent support right now. I've been on hold for 1hr 15min currently and over 1hr last evening before being disconnected because call center went closed. Ridiculous
