      Surprising but good. I wonder what the legitimate reason for them scraping it was 🤔

        Maybe an act of “good faith” they can use during the pushback against the incoming CRTC regulation. Probably not.

        Probably too many people moving to alternate payment forms that cost them more to process, like sending in cheques, etc.

        Personally, I just used a scheduled automatic bill payment from my bank and it was fine with no extra charge. I might put it back on the credit card now so I can get some points though.

      I was kinda hoping we’d see the CRTC actually do something… although I’ll take the benevolence of Telus I guess.

        The CRTC is worse than useless, I would be genuinely shocked if they did anything to hurt the telecom oligopoly

    They would have gotten much more good will by lowering the bill for people who don’t use credit cards. But no. Gotta be greedy.

    To little to late. I left Telus because of this stupid money grab and will never go back to them.
