  @Ayan604 @TELUS @TELUSsupport Telus keeps spamming me with calls too but I never pick up because I just assume it’s a scam… almost one every day

  @Ayan604 @TELUS @TELUSsupport As if a carrier will call its clients to offer them a better deal! They love that you are stuck in an older plan paying more - and hope you never call in asking for a better rate that would be available to anyone who signs up today.

Now ready to dump gatekeeper... actively looking for alternatives...not convinced their offer for agronomist/mapping solution will be viable (30yrs FP)

  @TELUSsupport @TELUS For months I was sent promotional texts from you to switch to Fibre, yet when trying to switch in December’26 there was some issues. I finally caved & authorized the transition in July Now during the final 36 holes of the @FedExChamp I have NO 🛜 NOR CABLE! Make it make sense!

  @Lidsville @Rogers This sounds like when I was being called by Telus for months about their security service. I kept asking to be taken off the list, they kept calling. Telecoms are evil

  Northwest B.C. cannot continue to be one cut cable away from losing critical communications. Following yet another widespread telecommunications outage on August 2, reportedly caused by copper cable theft, I have written to the Minister of Citizens’ Services asking what the Province is doing to improve the resilience and reliability of our telecommunications infrastructure. When these outages happen, the consequences go far beyond inconvenience. Residents can lose access to emergency information, businesses can’t process transactions, families can’t communicate, and entire communities can be left without reliable access to essential services. After the major outage in May, my office raised concerns with both TELUS and the Province about the lack of redundancy in Northwest B.C. and asked what was being done to prevent another widespread disruption. Months later, we are still waiting for meaningful answers, and now it has happened again. Copper theft is a growing problem, but whether an outage is caused by theft, wildfire, severe weather or infrastructure failure, our communities should not be left so vulnerable to a single point of failure. I’m asking the Province for clear answers on redundancy, infrastructure investment, emergency connectivity, and what steps are being taken with telecommunications providers to ensure Northwest communities can stay connected when something goes wrong. Reliable telecommunications are essential infrastructure, and Northwest B.C. deserves the same level of reliability and resiliency as the rest of the province.

  9/ Then start applying to legitimate platforms. Examples worth researching include: • DataAnnotation • Outlier • Appen • TELUS Digital AI Community • Scale AI ecosystem • Other verified AI evaluation/data-annotation companies But don't assume every platform accepts workers everywhere. Country, language, project demand and eligibility can change. Always check the current listing before applying. 10/ Here's something most “make money with AI” posts won't tell you: Getting accepted is NOT the same as getting consistent work. AI-training work is often project-based. Workers report differences in task availability, pay and acceptance rates across platforms and projects. So don't quit your current income source because someone showed you a $50/hour screenshot. Treat it as an opportunity until you've actually established consistent work.

  @Bell @telus @Rogers please explain why you scam Canadians while we get the same service or better in the UK for cheap?
