Ads on Stingray Music
I started hearing ads while listening to Stingray music a few weeks ago. We are subscribed to TELUS Optic TV and Stingray is included in the package. We pay big bucks to stay with TELUS TV, rather th...
The Telus ads on Stingray were annoying initially when they occurred about every half hour. This week (2nd week Feb) they seem to be about every 15 minutes. It interrupts the pleasure of listening to the music, and I hope they are a temporary feature.
I noticed the ads right after I locked in for two years. Horribly annoying and I am done with Telus. Will drop them first opportunity regardless of switching costs. I know they're doing really well recently and have been rewarding shareholders handsomely. Seems to embolden them into abusing their customers, I guess to suck up a bit more. With no meaningful competition in Canada it's easy to get away with it. Sad. I'm not Trump supporter but do agree with more US companies allowed here including internet and cell phone providers as well banks. Canadians constantly get screwed and we often don't know it, or worse just ignore it. High fees we pay go into communications budgets so they can bombard us with their propaganda to tell us what a great service we have them. Sorry, that's my Sunday rant.
- Agreed. They're even more frequent now. Things like this, the very poor customer service from Telus, the over billing errors, the gutting of decent Canadian jobs by Telus (in favor of mostly using contractors who get no benefits or stability from Telus), the excessively high CEO and other Executive pay in Telus, are why Telus has lost so much trust from the public.I am using Telus tv and stingray less because of those factors and particularly because of the ads on stingray now.
