Earlier in this thread, it was corrected with different bandwidth caps, but I am assuming the rest of the information is correct. I also assume that one of many Telus employees who frequent this thread can tell us how up to date the info is. Going by these numbers, Telus will charge twice as much per GB, on a comparable plan, than Shaw does for overages.

If this info is wrong, then I withdraw my statement that switching to Telus would be a bad idea based on UBB alone, but given the responses so far in this thread, by people who seem to be "in the know with Telus" I have no reason to doubt them.
The information above is posted 4 months ago, so I'm not sure how much as changed. Also, it doesn't mention Telus Optik. Telus High Speed and so on are different from my understanding because it doesn't come packaged with Telus Optik TV. Also utilizing different technology

Plus if the exceeded limit is true, then $2 per gig would be the same as Shaw. I don't know how that can be worst. If anything, it's the same overage charge.
