Telus TV - Is it worth making the switch?

Making The First Call to Telus:

If you're like me, you have Telus as your telephone provider. Perhaps like me you also have Telus internet. Even if you don't have Telus internet now, you may want it. A family member informed me how my money they were saving after asking about Telus bundles. This prompted my first call to Telus and Telus bundles.

I was shocked at my price savings for bundling all my services. I was going to double my 1.5 MB Telus internet speed to 3.0 MB. That means double the speed of my internet downloads. I was going to pay a lot less for my phone with cheaper long distance rates plus get caller ID!

Of course this is a Telus TV review so let me get into that. Previously, Shaw TV basic cable gave me all the channels that I really wanted. Previously, Telus TV couldn't quite match what I wanted. The fact is, with Telus TV I was going to get more television channels than I had with Shaw for a LOT less money. Even better I am getting a FREE wireless modem (because of my contract term) and a free to use HD PVR for one of my televisions (because of my contract term). Since I have 2 televisions, I get the second digital box free to rent.

** Remember this next part. The Telus TV rep on the phone made specific mention of the fact that the PVR will not allow me to record and watch a different channel at the same time. Why did they mentioned this to me? I imagine because of customer outrage. Most people expect their PVR to record one channel and allow them to watch on another. Regardless of this apparent issue with Telus TV PVR limitation, it made no difference to me. I was just suffering from sticker shock and the major savings.

If you're thinking this all sounds too good to be true, then read on. I must have my hooks in you as a reader! Seriously though, it was so fantastic that I took a leap of faith before really knowing how good or lousy Telus TV really was. Unlike you right now, I did not extra reading online about Telus TV.

Dealing with the Telus rep was great. They definitely care about keeping you as a customer or getting your business. I was very happy after making the call and learning about everything new from Telus that I was getting. What I was getting after my first initial call to Telus and Telus TV:

• Cheap new phone plan with calling feature!
• Faster Telus internet from 1.5 to 3.0 speed!
• Telus TV with Watch A Bunch Bundle!
• Free HD PVR and free Digital TV box for my second TV!
• Free wireless modem for signing a long term contact!
• 3 months with all the channels for no extra charge!
