Christiane Sadeler (@ChrisSadeler) reported from Saanich, British Columbia@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.

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?
-
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

I was told weeks ago there was a Covid related delay & that someone would contact me. No contact. No stock problems @ Bestbuy. Where is my TV? @TELUSsupport
-
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
-
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.
-
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
-
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. 🤬🤯
-
Tesla Tours (@tesla_tours) reported from Victoria, British Columbia@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
-
Penny Holt (@canukgenie) reported from Saanich, British Columbia@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.
-
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@mackenzie_moira @unionwill @TELUS Even without the pandemic, for the amount the gouge from us service should be far better whether phone, tv, internet etc.
-
Reg Brick (@hellonature) reported from Colwood, British Columbia@BridgieCasey @TELUS Block them. They are a horrible money loving, aggressive company w **** customer service.
-
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.

-
Fully Vaxed Gordie Logan (@GordieLogan) reported from Langford, British ColumbiaOh @TELUS, as a 30yr+ customer, I’ve never been so frustrated. I just had my appt for tomorrow cancelled. All because fiber hasn’t been run to the house yet. This is after an appt last week was cancelled for the same reason. Plz note, I made last weeks appt a month ago.

Tam Jam💲 (@Tamjam3z) reported from Esquimalt, British ColumbiaWhy ******** does telus keep calling me at 745pm every night and hanging up? Get real.

Ireney (@ireney33) reported@KirkLubimov I complained to Telus about an aggressive customer service agent in India and I got a call from the manager who said to me, yes we are trying to move customer service back to Canada. So this must be their answer. Idiots. So all my personal info sits in India.
-
Victor Conway (@ConwayWStern) reported@endthehkylckout @yonkojohn First off, you're a moron. I've been through these buyouts from both Shaw and telus in the past. They will get the 12k employees off their payroll. You have no idea what you're talking about, and should probably just log off for the day lest others think you're an idiot too.

Peter Girnus 🦅 (@gothburz) reportedI 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.

rick douglas (@rickdou78681875) reported@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.
