Usual Telus hacks in my condo lobby, cornering me in the mailbox area (I should have skipped mail check that day). Basically laughs at what I'm paying monthly, said he could get me a bunch of extra features added to my plan and my price would still be lower. At no point did he mention signing a contract. All he did was prop up what he was 'giving to me' and 'lowering my bill' while talking fast in a rural ass Indian accent.
He was going to give me a security camera FOR MY FUCKING 500SQ FT CONDO THAT I LIVE IN ON MY OWN. And I'm barely home. Oh nooooo, someone gonna steal my baking soda and flip flops?!?!
I had to ask if it's a brand new contract and he danced around it a bit before saying yes 'but but but savings!'
I said 'no, I'm moving out soon'.
Then when it came to finally cancel, I knew I would have to free my day completely up. Luckily, it only took 1.5 hours and that was it. I had to keep myself calm because I knew the guy was probably chained to a desk with someone behind him, screaming at him to keep my account active.
This company needs ass cancer at the bottom and a brain aneurysm at the top. Fuck em all and their shady ass 3rd party TFW wrangling scumbag contractors too.

Cancelled cable 2 years ago and have been rocking just internet, credits are up next month so called today and got sweet talked by Telus getting TV again lol. That said it was $50 more than what I'm paying now which includes Disney, Netflix Premium, and a 3rd choice which I opted for Sportsnet. I fugure I already have Disney and Netflix which run me $40/month so I'm really just paying $10 more for TV.
