Can you use shaw cable with telus internet?
The new place I'm moving into has telus internet and I want shaw cable can I use the two together?
I think the short answer is no. Shaw is not going to run their internet over Telus copper or fiber. You need Shaw cable into your residence to run Shaw. We have both and I compared the two options and picked Telus. I think your real issue is your e-mail address. If it is a Shaw address you may have to change the e-mail to a Telus one, or to save some hassle just go direct to Google Mail.
ShawSpy you said "Shaw tv is far superior to optik tv because almost everyones home has a ton of coaxial connections everywhere"
I have 8 RJ45 jacks and WiFi throughout but only 3 coax outlets in my house. By your logic Optik would be far superior to Shaw in my house on that basis.

It turns out that the place already has shaw internet and cable installed. So all I have to do is transfer ownership to my name and change the tv packages around a little.
Make the last owner cancel the service, this way they foot the bill for cancellation. This move will make you a free agent and allow you to sign up for new customer promotions from either Shaw and Telus as long as you are willing to commit for 2 years on a contract. Otherwise Shaw is gonna treat you like an existing customer and make you work with existing rates, no promo's....and you lose the option to switch to a Telus EPP until the contract you assume is either complete or bought out.
