    @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.

    @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. 🤔

    @TELUS fix your dang app please. I can’t pay my bill through the app because it won’t load. I either get wrong password or cannot connect to server. #help

    @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 .

    @BrennenLisa @TELUS @TELUSsupport Seems to be. First time we have had these issues with @telus really suggest not travelling with a Telus phone #buyerbeware

    @TELUS your website sucks...being forced to change my plan online to avoid a surcharge yet the website won't let me...

    @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”

    Hi @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

  • auxonic
    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.

  • MichaelSuddard
    Michael Suddard (@MichaelSuddard) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @Ottawa_Biker @TELUS @OC_Transpo Perhaps mine is post morning rush hour issues.

    EA (@ealculumbre) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @TELUSsupport I can confirm this is happening in #Ottawa area codes starting with K1Y. Please bring this up to management - Telus tech support has already acknowledged the issue and now we’d like to see it resolved. Keep us posted with steps your taking to resolve it.

    Eric Goodwin (@auxonic) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    @human3500 @ALL_CAPS Lol... do we have an approach? Other than telus/bell looking for handouts to marginally improve poor service

    @TELUS Wrong geo location for this ad, no one in Ontario gives a shit

    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 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.

    @mrabson Any chance you’re on Telus or Koodo? Their free Call Control service blocks robocalls. I haven’t had one in more than a year.

  • ambivalent_one
    ambivalent_one (@ambivalent_one) reported from Ottawa, Ontario

    Hi @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.

  • bramabramson
    Bram Abramson (@bramabramson) reported from Hull, Quebec

    @Mark_Goldberg @TELUS And not just normalizing for units consumed, either: also reasonable bundle allocation & a dozen other things. Dividing aggregates by aggregates is the worst approach, except all the others -- better would be to opt out of market analysis. Which apparently has perils too. #crtc

    @Tobzy47 That's the issue bro. Even if jobs come, new accounts are getting banned after 24 hours of the 1st job. I'm currently exploring Mercor and Telus.

  • OscarGrouchAjax
    Oscar Grouch (@OscarGrouchAjax) reported

    @TELUSsupport I was by use the setting use location for time zone. But I tested again around lunch and unchecked the setting, and it again switched to Atlantic time. Was wondering if this a Telus network issue. I will try to reboot my phone at the end of the day.

    sad they're tearing down the telus building on boundary, probably to turn it into some heinous-looking condos

  • mochouinard
    Marc O. Chouinard (@mochouinard) reported

    @TELUS I'm TIRED OF YOUR MARKETING CALLS !!! Do you guys even listen to what they do ??? They call you and don't let you pickup and they cancel the call ! OR the time the agent decide to remain and I could pickup, and I told them I am not interested, they just HANG UP ! No Thanks you or "I hope we can serve you better next time.." ! No ! Hangup to your face !!! And you guys wonder why Telus public opinion is dropping fast !!!

  • Techjunkie_Aman
    Techjunkie Aman (@Techjunkie_Aman) reported

    They didn’t leak passwords. They leaked something worse. Crunchyroll breach: • ~1.2M emails confirmed (subset of a larger dataset) • Third-party vendor (Telus Digital) compromised • Malware → Okta SSO → internal tools exposed (~24h access) Data taken: • Emails, names, usernames • IPs + approximate locations • Full support tickets (billing issues, chats, activity logs) That means attackers know: • Your recent support conversations • Billing disputes or issues • Account activity patterns Enough to send highly convincing phishing. Timeline: • Mar 12 → initial breach • Mar 23 → ~6.8M emails claimed • Late Mar → data sold on forums • Apr 4 → 1.2M verified (HIBP) Crunchyroll says no passwords leaked. But context > passwords. What to do: • Change password (especially if reused) • Enable 2FA (authenticator app) • Check HIBP • Watch for targeted emails/SMS This was a supply-chain breach.

  • MChernichen
    Mike Chernichen (@MChernichen) reported

    @jillschnarr Do you feel good about a company that bullies customers to purchase new home security systems by issuing a threat to refuse to monitor the customer's existing system? I received a registered letter today from Telus doing just that. Sounds like I should be talking to the CRTC!

    Hey @TELUS maybe get some support staff and customer service instead of calling me every time I’m one day late stop being ***** and help the customer
