Anyone use TelusTV in Calgary?
 
Not actually sure if I am allowed to post this...
We just bought a new flatscreen HD TV and obviously need to upgrade to HD and get a PVR box.
Has anyone used the Telus TV? They are offering us a great package and wonder if it's worth it? Any feedback??:wink:

I know someone who had it had they said it sucked! They ended up switching to Shaw for internet and TV. Personally, I love Expressvu and have been a happy customer since they first started up years ago. I love my 9242 dual tuner HD-PVR!

The max of 2 sets/house and only 1 can be HD was all it took to discourage me.

It blows hardcore, and along with the crappy product, you also get crappy service that goes with it. Skip it if you like to use internet & television at the same time.

Just switched over form StarChoice to Telus. So far so good. We have three sets, but no HD (don't really care too much about that, didn't have it before either). Internet still works fine, TV so far has been good. Installation was done well and timely, they fixed up a bunch of other things with the household while here. Got all the hardware plus a fancy Logitech remote for free and the package is cheaper per month that what we were paying. With Starchoice, we were facing having to upgrade most of our boxes due to age and that would have ended up being a $1000 -$1500 expense.

The biggest factor for Telus is the amount of bandwidth getting to your house. We have a good connection and had more than adequate service to run all three boxes and internet. We could have had HD if not for the third box. Perhaps in the future they will make it work, but I'm not that concerned right now.

HD is actually cheaper than digital+movies :)
