Highly Recommend Tellus!

I visited the Telus store at Erin Mills Town Centre today and was assisted by Huzaifa. His customer service was outstanding. He was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain every detail of the internet plan options in a clear and easy-to-understand way.
Thanks to his help, the entire sign-up process was smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate his professionalism and friendly attitude.
I highly recommend Huzaifa to anyone looking for exceptional service at Telus.

Thank you for the review Doina.

However, we believe you may have confused us with a different Tellus. We are Tellus with two Ls, a real estate fintech company based in California. We are not the Canadian telecommunications company.

Great app, bad investor and experience

I really like the app and how user friendly it is. The returns are also great. The only issue with Tellus is they don’t offer investors any financials or audit reports to review. If I’m investing with a company it’s only fair that they let me review how the company is doing. Not allowing me to see anything when I ask for it puts up a red flag in my book.

great when i needed it

I used tellus when 45 was president and had absolutely zero issues. However, I could not get past the FDIC insurance component. Now that the app has some hair under it's chin, i'm looking to come back. The date of experience is wrong because the site will not let me go farther than a year back.

Don't bypasss this opportunity to earn money!

Initially, I found this app while trying to find a way to manage my first rental property. I love it. Easy. Customer service is quick and top-notch. As a bonus, they offer amazing interest-earning savings opportunities that beat any bank I've seen. I am passively making money every day. They make it fun and are always encouraging ways to earn more.

Tellus is a great company

Tellus is a great company. Easy to get around on the app. Transactions are done in a timely manner, both money going out and money being deposited. I’m afraid to put too much money in because it is not insured. But other than that I’m very pleased with this company.

Best interest rate out there

I am so glad I found this app. This is by far the best interest rates out there. 8% on your first $2500 in a reserve account and a base rate of 5.59% in the boost account and if you activate all the boosts and take advantage of their frequent promotions, it is easy to get close to 7%. Withdrawls usually process in one day and have never had a problem with them
