I first got Telus installed because from what I saw and heard they offer the best package. as far as I knew the cable was covered in my rent since I never received any kind of bill. So as you can guess it was discontinued. I called them and they told me I had to come up with $800 to have it hooked up. I explained to them that I was in college and I explained to the rep from Telus. She basically told me to get lost and even snickered. I called hoping to make an arrangement as to paying the bill($100/month extra on my bill) or some other deal that would be good for both parties. Then I hear about a program Telus has for students and crippled like me. so there it is another money-hungry conglomerate just out for the bucks never mind lending a helping hand once in a while.
