Build-out plans for fiber into existing neighborhoods
I'm looking at having a home built in Inglewood, and want to have fiber internet service, but it doesn't look like Telus fiber services are available there. Where to I go to find out about Telus services roll out schedule for neighborhoods not currently serviced? Is there a schedule for Inglewood? My timeline for installation would be about two years from now.
What does it take to get wifi-6? Telus reps REFUSE to fix mistake
I've been trying to help my 64 year old dad upgrade the modem in our house as the internet connectivity and speed has significantly slowed down. We successfully got some sent in from the loyalty department, just to find out that they were the exact same models that we have. After spending an hour waiting for our call, the representatives at the call center kept transferring us. I made it CLEAR that we wanted to upgrade our Wi-Fi modem and she said she would transfer us to the correct department. She also said she would include a note to give me authorization so that my dad would not have to be on the call and to avoid us from repeatedly being verified each time. After a whole bunch of transfers and somehow ending up at the security department (we do not have any Telus security products btw), we're still at square one. Does anyone have any tips for trying to obtain a Wi-Fi 6 modem without going through HOURS of their call center? I CANNOT imagine how difficult it is for others trying to request for services and waste so much time to be transferred to the wrong department. Definitely a headache of a process.
Pole Removal
Hello Telus, BC Hydro recently replaced the pole that our electrical and telecommunication lines are on. They used the 'cut and kick' method which left your lines connected to the old rotting pole that was cut down and tethered to the new pole. How do I begin the process of getting Telus to move their lines over to the new pole and removing the old pole? BC Hydro has instructed me to contact you to finish the process. I reached out to your technical support team who made me an appointment with a technician. After nobody showed up for the appointment, I was told by another agent that the incorrect team was dispatched. I'm not confident your front-line call centre staff are familiar with how utility poles are replace here in Canada. I have reached out to you via private message and haven't heard back. I see from other posts you were able to help get the ball rolling. While not an emergency case, I'd like to ensure it does not fall by the wayside. Thank you in advance for your assistance!

How to install my Ubiquiti gateway into my Telus fiber home network?
Hey guys, I want to move away from Telus' equipment and install my Ubiquiti UCG-Fiber and U7 Lite access points. I currently have fiber internet, Optik TV with legacy equipment, and a home phone. In the network panel, I have a Telus-supplied NAH, WiFi booster 6E, and some splitters. What is the purpose of the MoCA port on the NAH? I have no idea why there are multiple splitters installed and with RG-6 cables on them. I want to clean and tidy up the network panel as it's a total mess. Is it possible to remove the NAH and plug the ONT, legacy TV equipment, and home phone to my UCG-Fiber? I know the internet works if I connect the ONT directly to the UCG-Fiber's WAN port. If not, is the best case scenario to leave the home phone and legacy Optik equipment with the NAH, and then bridge one of the LAN ports and connect that to the UCG-Fiber? Not sure what a NAT and double NAT are, but will this problem occur with this setup? I have no interest or desire to install Rogers' Internet service. For my security, is there a way to unplug Rogers' equipment from my house, or if it's a condo? I'm contemplating installing MoCA adapters. Looking for advice on how to best optimize my new home network/topology. Thank you!
Trying to cancel, Telus makes it near IMPOSSIBLE, why?
Is being unethical like this really worth the hassle it leads to? This only results in CRTC complaints... Have been trying to get in contact with anyone from telus and it is a big loop online with the ai chatbot trying to set up a callback which fails, no email to contact, only number i can call refer me back to the ai chatbot. I Just want to cancel a dead persons account and even though it is NOT on contract, u keep charging me new fees even though service has been unusued for more than 3 months. How do u EASILY and without HASSLE just CANCEL.
Fibre Optic
We have had the Fibre Optic brought into our condo building, the wire runs to each condo above the door. My question is why do we have to have wires running all around each condo to each TV? I would like to go with the fibre optic but I don't like the way neighbor's have had wires running around the walls across the stucco popcorn ceilings and ruining the look of the home. Why cant something be fitted where my modem is now just inside the door and then use Wi fi for everything?Contact Info BC
Hello, Can anyone please help me with contact info in British Columbia for customer service? Since October, we’ve dealt with horrible experiences with unknowledgeable customer service agents that have continuously increased the bills, including adding services NOT requested. This is an account for an elderly home bound 90 yr old senior with hearing impairment and very very little tech experience. Please help. Thank you.
