• 
  🇨🇦🏳️‍🌈 Talia M. Wilson #GenXZeneca 🌈🇺🇸 (@olyfilmgirl) reported 21 seconds ago from Colwood, British Columbia

  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?

  Does 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. 🤬🤯

  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.

  @TELUS you may want to check Twitter for comments on @koodo. Or check the @koodo community board. A lot of upset people for terrible service. One more try from me to get the money due to me and my next move is CRTC. #unbelievable corporate arrogance and inaptitude.

  @EmmaCParston @Google People complain that high quality electronic products by companies like Apple and Tesla are overpriced until they waste valuable time on the alternatives. For my part, I’m wishing I’d stayed with Fido & Shaw instead of getting duped into Telus’ marketing-first service-last model

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport as long as this keeps going on I will advise our new neighbours to go to @Shawhelp a lady yesterday was having problems with telus to move in next month so now she is calling shaw this morning. Shaw as been brilliant.

  @gillrh They are the worst, along with mobile phone plans. You should have been a fly on the wall where Chris took on Telus. Not pretty.

  Sarah Campden (she, her) (@scampden) reported 36 minutes ago from Saanich, British Columbia

  I 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

  Sue Stroud she/her 🍊❤️💪🏼 (@suestroud) reported 37 minutes ago 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.

  Revheidi Koschzeck (@RevheidiK) reported 41 minutes ago from Langford, British Columbia

  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

  @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.

  Brandon Rylow (@brandonscript) reported 42 minutes ago from Saanich, British Columbia

  I 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.

  @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

  @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.

  Reg Brick (@hellonature) reported 49 minutes ago from Colwood, British Columbia

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

  Tam Jam💲 (@Tamjam3z) reported 49 minutes ago from Esquimalt, British Columbia

  Why ******** does telus keep calling me at 745pm every night and hanging up? Get real.

  H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported 52 minutes ago 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.

• 
  H. Neal Cropper (@RealNealDeal) reported 57 minutes ago 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.

• 
  Lloyd Mildon (@LloydMildon) reported 58 minutes ago from Oak Bay, British Columbia

  On 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

  @tunguz you've never seen an oligopoly better-suited to bungling every conceivable natural advantage than Canadian telecoms. You should not be bullish on this if Telus is involved in any capacity whatsoever

• 
  Jason 🇨🇦 (@JasonCraigBrown) reported 7 minutes ago

  @terrynewman As an @TELUS customer, I would love to be able to speak to a real human in this country! It's getting harder to speak to anyone when dealing with them. Have a problem? They'll call you back in a day or two maybe.

  Half the people talking about the Telus data center in Vancouver are literally some of the dumbest people in Canada I swear to god. Why Telus? -Because who TF else is going to build it? Why downtown Vancouver? -Because that's where the ******* internet exchange is. Downtown in a city is the most retarded place for a data center!!!11!!11! -No, you're literally an idiot stfu. The data center will be loud and create loads of issues for people?? -NO, you're literally an idiot stfu. Why is Telus the only business in Canada who can build data center infrastructure? -Because they've been doing it for the past 15 years and they know how to do it. Why is there nobody else in Canada who can do it? -Because they all work at Telus. Can't Rogers do it? -No. Can't Bell do it? - LOL. Why can't some other company other than Telus do it? -Because there is literally nobody else. How can a company with no experience in data centers build data center? - They have 5 data centers already and building a data center has less to do with what is inside and more to do with the services it provides and the SLA. How can it be true that the only qualified party to take on one of the most important technology projects in the country is one of the biggest technology companies in the country? - ... How can it be true there is only one qualified party in the country? - Why would the opposite be true?

  @MarkJCarney Great Job @MarkJCarney!You definitely know how to support your Buddy Victor!Maybe focus on driving this country to success instead of dumping contributors' money into the pockets of @telus' shareholders!

  @JamesDueck @MarkJCarney Makes sense for Telus, free money from the Feds, AI eliminates masses of employees, Telus rakes in more cash. Win , win for those damn shysters.

  @VanCityVice @Emily_Lowan We’re saying that instead of addressing any of the issues you crudely describe as noise (homelessness, opioid epidemic, wealth inequality) the gov is fast tracking projects for Telus that don’t do **** for the community.

  Oh Boy It's Kale (@OhBoyItsKale) reported 16 minutes ago

  @LXXXIVMJW @Emily_Lowan Well telus reported 525 for these 3 sites. These jobs will include technicians, operators, engineers, managers and support roles like security

  @janelleybelley3 I can handle my own but I can't imagine a single woman alone having either of these 2 creeps coming into her home. Always have another person whenever Telus sends a rep. The 2nd rep was trying to get feely with me, gave me his card & said call anytime I like everything WTF gag

  Jojo (@jojojojojobz) reported 17 minutes ago

  @EvanLSolomon Zero qualifications to handle AI and digital innovation. Wtf does a broadcaster know about LLMs? ******* gong show of a government. Tell us taxpayers how much kickback from Telus you are going to get.
