Telus will need to make some improvements in several areas like Shaw did in the last few months to stay competitive, otherwise they may see another mass customer migration
Well, as Shaw and Bell have proven, the only way to get people to mass migrate from a service is to offer unsustainable cuthroat rates like Telus did. So unless Bell or Shaw do the same, I doubt it will happen.

As for pricing, I agree, the non-promo pricing for Telus isn't anything to write home about, but until Shaw CS times go back to normal, they will still have a hard time bringing back old customers.
