Had a technician install new telus internet at the beginning of december. Technician had run to and fro between the house and the street pedestal, and determined that the wiring up on the electrical poles was broken somewhere. Two and half months later, another technician technician came, drove to and fro between the house and the street pedestal (is is more than 100m), climbed few poles, and determined that the wires between the house and the telus street box are broken. I asked him to wire in the modem anyway, so when next technician comes with a spool of wire, they do not have to enter the house, all they need is to run the wire between the box on the outside wall and their street pedestal. Astonishingly, I received a message that the service is now up. Tried to communicate with their AI assistant, asking for live agent. AI assistant failed. Got an email, supposedly from live person, who suggested that I unplug and plug in the modem. Did the movie "Idiocracy", https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0387808/ get its inspiration from how telus functions? Anybody here has an email for someone high up on the telus chain of command who understand the phrase "wires are broken" and can do something about it?54Views0likes3CommentsLaneway house connection?
Hi! I’ve tried calling customer support but get nowhere with this. I currently have Telus home services (phone,internet) to my house. We have built a new Laneway home on the same property. The city requires we run a new Telus service to the Laneway home underground, and also take the older main homes service from overhead and also place underground. Who do I contact to begin this process on Telus’s end? thank you!73Views0likes4CommentsAre there current IMAP email issues?
Currently I can't get my email via imap on windows or ios devices. But, occasionally it works and will sync, but then it fails for another hour. The web interface always works. Is there a separate status for telus imap email, even though it is hosted on gmail? I notice one of my accounts works when the other doesn't, and I don't know how to track down the issue since it will suddenly start working again, and then fail just as suddenly (0x800ccc0e on outlook win, fail to sync on ios).105Views0likes13CommentsWifi asking for sign in
My wifi started asking me to sign in all of a sudden but I am unable to do so. The sign in link takes me to an unavailable page for order.fiber.telus.com. I've never had to sign in to use my wifi before and restarting the modem did nothing. Can someone please help me to get this working properly again?68Views0likes3CommentsPoor Routings to game servers
I’ve been a long time customer at Telus for about 6 to 7 years and possibly experienced 3 or 4 outages since but every time I play Valorant or apex legends the routings to those games are horrendous sometimes I won’t even send the required packets for the server to give me enough updates and it’s not even just Valorant I used a software on my computer called pingplotter which measures packet loss and hops in your network routing and to Apex Valorant Marvel rivals CoD and so many other games but CSGO my graph was green and i was lagging if you want test the same thing download ping plotter set your trace interval to 1 and Focus time to 5 and ping 192.207.0.1 and let me know how your graph looks75Views0likes3CommentsSolving an escalation
I spent 2.5 hours with Telus yesterday speaking to 3 different employees & waiting. Telus is not honoring the verbal offer that I was given by the first agent - they are redacting their statement and breaking the verbal contract that I entered with them when I agreed to proceed with the offer. I escalated the issue and requested a supervisors intervention, he agreed to look into the issue and call me back the following day at a time conducive to my work schedule. He called me back with no answer other than redacting the offer, I also requested a call back to cancel TV services as I already waited on hold to do it the day before and they were unable. I was told I would get a call this evening from a cancellation rep and I would hear back from him. No one contacted me. My experience with customer service has been horrendous. If this does not get rectified I intend on issuing a formal complaint.145Views0likes5CommentsAccount deactivated while on international trip. Need urgent help!!
I’m traveling internationally due to personal reasons and cannot return to Canada until a couple months. So my rental home now has a new tenant who seemed to have activated a new Telus home service. Telus without any intimation deactivated my account and sent me an email to return equipment. I need to be able to use the Telus internet when I get back and don’t mind paying monthly charges towards service although I’m not using . Now Telus says it will slap a fee up to $300 if I don’t return the equipment and that concerns me since I cannot travel to Canada immediately. I need help! Please!57Views0likes1CommentIssue with NH20A bridge mode
Hey there, I’m a newbie when it comes to networking. I have an issue trying to bridge the NH20A to my ubiquiti cloud gateway fibre. I have 1.5G fibre. I’ve tried everything I can think of and from research I’ve done and still can’t get it to connect. I’ve tried all ports bridged, port 1, 10g port. Factory resetting the NH20A and for whatever reason it will not provide internet to the ucg fibre. I’ve tried configuring the ucg to pppoe with all the accurate credentials and vlan 40 tags. I can get it to connect in a double NAH set up but the internet speed is abysmal. Only 0.1mbs. I’ve tried changing the ip addresses. Any further guidance or any other ideas would be greatly appreciated! thanks!102Views0likes1CommentReceived a collections notice for an account closed 2 years ago with a $0 balance
I closed my account with Telus in October 2023 and received a final email in December 2023 noting my account had a $0 balance. 2 years later, I receive an email from ARM collections agency that I owe money to Telus. I called Telus, but they were unable to tell me what the amount was for. After emailing ARM, I got an email that there was a payment and the file is closed. I still have a collections notice on my credit report from another company General Credit Services that says my file is still open. Can I get some help? I never received any notice from Telus that I actually owe money to them, it's just from 3rd party companies I never had any involvement with.Solved83Views0likes1Comment
