*sigh* ok

telus offers:
home phone plus +1 for 21 dollars, 4 cents a min LD and any 1 calling feature of your choice
home phone plus+5 37 dollars then you can choose whatever LD plan you want to go with it

we also offer home phone +10 with unlimited NA calling and 1000 mins over seas for 55 dollars, same plan shaw has

telus has the exact same rates, although, the 21 dollar plan isn't advertised as much as shaws because we cannot give it out to just anyone. If you don't live in a major center or an area with competition, the CRTC regulates the rates and we can't charge that low. Oh and as far as your bundling savings...

TELUS high speed 6.0 30$, 15.0 43 dollars (bundled pricing)
Shaw high speed 7.5 35$, 15.0 45 dollars (bundled pricing)

not sure where all these savings you speak of are, strictly speaking about price, shaw is more expensive, especially when you add TV to the mix. Our base package on a bundle (if you have phone or internet) is 22 dollars a month now with bundle discount, and is all in digital, unlike shaw where you pay 30-35 dollars for 20-30 channels in analog, or, 60 bucks a month for 60 channels all in analog. Numbers are numbers, and the pricing is simply better on TELUS if you're in a non regulated area like calgary

edit: and this really has nothing to do with me working for TELUS or Shaw or anyone. I have a telus home phone and shaw for internet.
