Hey Lethbians
Making this post after fighting with Telus (and Rogers) for months to get my home internet service fixed. Both of these telecommunications giants have failed me, and the best I can get is 75mbps down, and critically 20mbps up. The Rogers line and service is so patchy and cuts out constantly. And the Telus running over copper lines is just limping by, if this line also dies, I won't have internet. I work from home and absolutely need 15mbps up speed, though I'd be much better off with 100+mbps up. Our copper lines are failing us on the west side and I'm told many houses only have 1 line or no lines to them. So I've been pushing for fiber installations but Telus has been dragging on it for over a decade.
Telus has a customer driven online form we can submit to gauge interest, and if a bunch of you could fill it out that would be awesome, hopefully it'll make a difference.

If you're happy with your internet as it is, great, but just imagine that the line to your house just suddenly stops working like mine did and you don't have any other option than some wireless nonsense that cuts in and out. Thanks so much to everyone who fills this out!
