ambivalent_one (@ambivalent_one) reported from Ottawa, OntarioHi @koodo! I'm wondering what I can do about consistently low cell reception at home. I get poor audio on calls, dropped calls and often calls go right to voicemail. This isn't new, it been gradually getting worse over the last couple of years. It's also affecting the Telus cells
-
Michael.L (@OCT_Fan) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@HeneinThorn I’m pretty happy with Virgin 🇨🇦 @virginmobilecan Though I’m thinking of going back to Virgin as TELUS has the worst policy re paying ones bill .

ambivalent_one (@ambivalent_one) reported from Ottawa, OntarioHi @madebygoogle I love my Pixel 6 Pro but it's by far the phone with the worst signal strength I've had in my area. @koodo and @TELUS both have low signal normally but of the phone I've had this is the only one that has dropped calls and gone offline. I'm in the burbs.

Eric Goodwin (@auxonic) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@TELUS I support government owned and operated infrastructure because the big telcos like you refuse to invest in it. You’re looking for a handout and to that I say “shove off”
-
antpepe (@antpepe) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@tleehumphrey @TELUS It will be good, the working from anywhere needs more bandwidth. This will help people increasing their cellphone speeds. Businesses need to recover.
-
Michael Suddard (@MichaelSuddard) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@Ottawa_Biker @OC_Transpo Normally I don't have any issues in the tunnels until this past week and late week before. So strange. The St Laurent Mall Telus network usually picks me up no problem. Maybe I should try that one too. 🤔

Paul McGuire (@mcguirp) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@JenniferNKing @TELUS @TELUSsupport That's what they said. Will never travel with a @telus phone again. Lesson learned. Terrible customer service.

Dave D Garand (@DaveInBlackburn) reported from Ottawa, OntarioMy #Telus phone service is kaput, anyone else?

Eric Goodwin (@auxonic) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@ALL_CAPS @TELUS How about cut off all incumbents from new spectrum auctions until there’s fibre literally every damn place.
-
Vivek Dehejia (@vdehejia) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@TELUSsupport Thanks, nope I didn't transfer this and got it from Telus last fall. Worked fine till this glitch today. But just had a friend call me and it's working again now. So I assume it was perhaps network congestion or something else temporary. Anyway, all good now!
-
Paul McGuire (@mcguirp) reported from Ottawa, OntarioAmazing statement today by @TELUS - if you keep your phone on airplane mode while overseas you will still incur roaming charges. Only way to prevent this, leave you SIM card in Canada. Terrible #CustomerService by @TELUSsupport
-
EA (@ealculumbre) reported from Ottawa, OntarioAs long as I’m on LTE my #Ottawa reception is at 1 bar and reception extremely choppy. When changed to 3G service goes up to 2/3 bars & audio conversations became possible. - We shouldn’t have to choose between the two @TELUS @TELUSsupport
-
Paul Atkinson 🇨🇦 (@Paulysworld) reported from Gatineau, Quebec@mikesbloggity @jkenney @shandro It's their plan to privatize for $ healthcare. They only care about $ & the wealthy. They gut AB healthcare, fire 11k during a pandemic, refuse to shut down, go MIA, & will "suddenly" come up with a "private sector" (Telus health) solution... this is skulduggery they're Ghouls.

Michael Suddard (@MichaelSuddard) reported from Ottawa, Ontario@Ottawa_Biker @TELUS @OC_Transpo Perhaps mine is post morning rush hour issues.

David McGuffin (@mcguffindavid) reported from Chelsea, Quebec@perreaux I ultimately quit Bell mobility and went to Telus for a variety of reasons which could be summed up as “I really didn’t feel like they gave a crap if I was a customer or not.” So far Telus feels more attentive. Kind of like the difference between Air Canada and WestJet.

x - newb.exe (@n3wbtewb) reported@TELUS why’d almost half of canada lose internet and cell service recently?
-
AB_Wild_West (@AB_Wild_West) reported@Telus For the rest of my life, I will NEVER deal with you again. One and a half hours to cancel services and most of that was on hold. You make it extremely difficult to be able to speak to an actual human being and then I could barely understand the person I dealt with.
-
Sea Dog (@Van_Isle_SeaDog) reported@FringedCanuck @martianwyrdlord 100% agreed!! I actually had to sic the FEC on them for charging me for **** I never had! It took months and you could never talk with anybody that would/could do anything to stop it! **** Telus!

Dale Alton (@DaleAlton5) reported@JonSedore HOW SOON WE FORGET The data breach involving Telus Digital in March 2026. Telus Digital confirmed investigating a cybersecurity incident March 12, 2026. The breach involved unauthorized access over several months prior (possibly undetected since late 2025). The hackers stole a massive amount of data—up to around 1 petabyte (700+ terabytes according to some reports). This included customer records, call-center recordings, personally identifiable information from multiple clients, source code, If you're a Telus customer , consider steps like changing passwords or enabling monitoring for identity theft.

Janet S. (@Jes_561) reported@GG37374104 Wow really !? I still have my landline with Telus and have never had them ask me to give it up. People wonder why I keep it but I find it way better sound quality than any cell phone I’ve ever had.
-
Sandilou2u (@sandilou2u) reported@peternowak I called Telus support a few months back and could hear a rooster ****-a-doodle-doing in the background.
-
Sarah (@shankarita) reported@deliaflower1 You probably got someone in Pakistan. I had to get help from the BBB once before a Canadian Tech from Telus called me and fixed the problem.
-
bar_1 (@bar1_crypto) reported@KirkLubimov Been waiting for a reason to cancel my telus account and this is it.

Brules (@Bellrules) reported@albertaseparate The NDP didn’t share it with anyone that wasn’t supposed to have it. The unions don’t have it. Never have. Now you’re lying about this. Telus and Rogers don’t have our voter information. You separatists just have to keep lying to believe your narrative. The world has caught on.
