Community Power UserI just learned Telus is migrating webmail to Gmail!
I suspect this is related to email issues Telus had in August but that's speculation on my part. I was trying to modify my Junk mail settings for Webmail and can't seem to find the settings to change...
I'm extremely frustrated and disappointed by this. The whole reason I setup Telus webmail was to avoid using Google and now they're forcing me back in. I just signed a two-year deal for internet too and this to me should make that void. They're swapping out a product we pay for and adding something that's freely available online.
Guess I have to shop around for a new paid email service somewhere and migrate all my things again. What a pain. This is the kind of thing that will make me strongly consider moving to Shaw for my services especially now that they offer cheap cellphones to go with internet plans. Way to go, Telus

Community Power UserTelus is including the commercial version of Google’s email: G-Suite. You can check the differences between G-Suite and the free product at Google.
Do you know if we get access to the other G Suite apps like Calendar and Contacts, or just the Gmail part? I never considered this and just downloaded the free versions of Calendar and Contacts.

I understood Telus was to migrate Contacts (don’t know about calendaring) from the previous platform to the G-Suite platform, so I suspect you should have access, but have no confirmation.To my knowledge I had no "Contacts" or "Calendar" in the Telus Webmail to migrate. I did not even know it had that capability.
- Click on the square of nine dots at top right of your screen. Calendar and Contacts s/b there.
Yes, I generally do not use the browser based Gmail on my PC, but when I do, that is what I use. I guess my real question is whether or not the G Suite version of Calendar and Contacts is different than the free version. On my iPhone, I just downloaded the free Gmail, Calendar, and Contacts. I do sign in with my G Suite account though.
