Go to our network page at www.telus.com/status and in the top right you'll see a green 'Report an outage' button. Then, choose the right button that also says 'Report an Outage'. You'll see a form to fill out your contact info and address of the damaged cable. Check off the 'Cable damage or low hanging wire' box, enter some info in the open field and attach a photo (if you'd like) and fire it off to our team. Someone will be in touch asap!
Alternately, you used to be able to call in to Telus (1-888-811-2323) and after choosing Home, tell the automated thing "a wire is on the ground" and it should then connect you to an agent.

should I move hanging the cable off my property and on to the boulevard so it gets resolved. I don’t know why I even bothered to move it out of the way of the sidewalk at this point.
