9 TopicsWho Are the Community Power Users (CPUs)?
What's a Community Power User? You may have noticed a "CPU" designation attached to the profiles of prominent members in our community. CPUs, or Community Power Users, are customers - just like you - who are passionate about sharing knowledge and collaborative problem-solving. They come from all walks of life and bring their unique experiences into the conversation with the goal of helping you get the most out of your TELUS products and services. Do CPUs Get Perks? Absolutely. We want our most active members to be well-versed in our products and services beyond what they're subscribed to so we hook them up with perks including (but not limited to) the following: Special Permissions: CPUs are provisioned access to features and exclusive areas of our community that are not available to the general public. Products/Services Pilots: We want authentic feedback so we enlist the help of our CPUs during product/service development. Some of the very products you use have input from this group. Access to Internal Team Members: CPUs are a curious bunch so we help them scratch that itch by connecting them to members of our Product Teams. And More: We made this purposely vague. We want to properly recognize their contributions but it's not always a one-size-fits-all approach. We set up the CPUs to understand our entire portfolio of products and services to help you 🙂. How do I Become a CPU? We're always on the look-out for helpful members so we may reach out to recruit you. Alternatively, we may activate an application form right on this page but we're not currently taking submissions.

I've made multiple attempts to try and purchase a Stream+ Premium Subscription. When I reach the checkout I'm continually redirected to a page that says "Thanks for your interest ... this subscription is only available for Telus customers who have certain Telus services". To clarify, I have a Telus phone plan. I've contact customer support they confirmed I should be able to purchase the subscription, they advised me to complete an online ticket for subscription services detailing my issue. That was three weeks ago. I contacted customer support again, my account was deleted an recreated and still no luck. They said to give it 24 to 48 hours, after recreating my account for their database to update and try again. Again no luck.85Views0likes1CommentHow to Get in Touch with TELUS?

Hello there, Wondering if someone could give me a hand on how to get TELUS to Connect my Building with TELUS Pure Fibre. I have been calling, emailing ([email protected]), and submitting the online form for the last 2 years with no help or contact from TELUS. Anyone have any recommendations on how to get their attention? or get me into contact with someone who can escalate/resolve this?1.1KViews0likes4CommentsTelus raising prices unprecedented.
   Hi, Home writing this in regards to not being able to communicate with anyone that has been able to fix this issue. I’ve been on phone calls and I’ve been told that they can’t fix it. Went on the phone. I was put on hold for hours just to talk to the same person and not rectify the situation. They then emailed me telling me that they were gonna call me back so I can speak with the manager and they never did, It ended up being the same person I spoke to when I was put on hold. Before I reach out to CCTS I am reaching out on here in hopes to find a solution. I was offered a specific plan if I transferred All four lines in my family to tellus. For a year, it was great but come 2025. They raised the rates with no questions asked. I find this very disloyal that they did not honour the original agreement. Me and my family feel scammed. Here the the price differences in monthly bills.    1.6KViews0likes5Commentsvalorant poor routing
Im experiencing people stuttering hits not registering when doing tracert it times out and when doing a ping plotter graph this is what comes out I have contacted riot games multiple times and their telling me this is a routing issue I have tried port forwarding i have tried literally everything when using shaw it works perfectly fine but only when i swap back to telus do i have this issue TezukaTlipokah (VALORANT Support) Dec 4, 2024, 23:29 UTC Greetings, From Ixaocan comes Tezuka to help you! From what I've seen in the pingplotter image you've sent this seems related to some issues your ISP is currently facing regarding your routing to our servers. Even if other games or apps work fine, keep in mind that each of them has different paths, so the problem could only affect your path to our game. Since there's not much we can do on our end, try contacting your ISP and ask them to look into it. If you need help on how to approach them about the situation, you can request a reroute, and it's a good idea to ask your ISP to assign you a static IP address if possible, and you'll need to ask them to check if you're getting a public IP consistent with all your traffic linked to the Internet, regardless of protocols. Additionally, you can try asking for a level 2 or specialized agent, as they should be able to find the root of the problem more easily. In case your ISP needs all the details about the route we are using, please provide them with our PeeringDB page and suggest they contact us directly.  5.9KViews1like20CommentsTelus refusing service and hanging up on me
My entire neighborhood with all my neighbors around me have been upgraded to fiber, all the houses are built the same, they are townhouses. The previous homeowner refused the wire upgrade, but I had an electrician come and confirm that yes, my house can be serviced and is ready to upgrade to fiber whenever Telus comes out. However, they continually refuse my calls, and even hang up on me as soon as I tell them my address. I've made 10 separate requests to the service center and they still won't get back to me I've always been polite with them, and have never had an issue until I moved to this address. But it seems like they have now blacklisted my account, and refuse to even give me a simple call back. I'm about ready to cancel, because they've made me feel plainly awful for wanting to pay them for their service at my own home.. Has anyone else had problems like this and how did you resolve it?967Views0likes1CommentFaulty Smoke Detector - Replacement Required - Telus won't send it to me?
Short version: smoke detector faulty > Telus won't send me new smoke detector until I sign up for new contract Hi, I am originally an ADT customer (now Telus since last night, I guess?) and my smoke alarm has been beeping and the yellow "fault" light has been flashing. I installed new batteries yesterday, but that did not solve the problem so I called Telus Technical support (twice). They also had me replace the batteries again, which I did. New batteries were used each time. They said the smoke detector was likely faulty so I requested a new one. Technical Support said they could not order the replacement smoke detector for me and therefore had to transfer me to the Loyalty Department who could help... they couldn't and then transferred me to the Customer Care team? (I don't know of that is the department's official name.) When speaking with the Care team, I was told the only way to get a new smoke detector was to sign up for a new three year contract. I said I was surprised that they could not simply send me a new smoke detector but they assured me this was the only way. Thinking about my family's safety, I said OK to the new contract under duress (strong word, I know, but not sure how else to phrase it). They said I would now have to wait two weeks for the new one to arrive! Overall, I am beside myself. I just need a replacement smoke detector, which is part of a service I am already paying for but no one can help. In short, this kinda feels like extortion (again, strong language, but not sure what else to call it). My smoke detector is faulty. I simply need a replacement. And Telus won't send me a new one unless I sign up for a new three year contract. And when I did reluctantly sign up, they said I now need to wait. I am at a loss with what to do here. Hoping someone in this community can help! Thank you all.3.9KViews0likes2CommentsTelus pure fibre connection help
Hello everyone, I had my home tv and internet connections upgraded through my Strata. Telus came and installed their pure fibre wires and new boxes to connect to my suite. Now I have recently upgraded my TV and AVR to 4K compatible tech and purchased cat 8 Ethernet cables. However I just noticed that I didn’t replace the ones that came with the Telus hardware ONT/T3200m. Now my question is, what cat rating is the cable that would have come with the Telus equipment, specifically the ONT box from the wall that connects to the T3200m, and do I need to upgrade that cat cable.? Please help, thank you5.1KViews0likes3Comments
