[news]

Just rec'd email yesterday from Telus that our community in Calgary SW have until July 25/2023 to complete final phase & bring fibre Optik into home-it is mandatory. Don't want it now-even if free. Had spoken recently to Telus agent & they said don't have to decide for a few years. Will take Calgary a few years to totally switch over &Thus we can continue with regular service (land line & internet) & decide in a few years. We don't have cable-don't watch TV. We have & love our landlines & do not own cell phone-do not want to own cell phone cannot afford a cell phone(which will only last a short time & then ends up in landfill). Our landline phones have been good for mega years. QUESTION-Is this a bullying tactic from Telus for us to switch in our community right away? Legally can they force to switch by July 25 or can we wait for a few years f still be supported-copper? This is totally different from Telus agent that I had spoken to. All Telus conversations I'm assuming are recorded. Thank you for your I put.
