Consumers lodged hundreds of complaints against telecom companies between January and August of 2013. Here is one of the more unusual complaints, obtained by The Canadian Press through an Access to Information request. A complaint from the owner of a mobile home park alleges up to 20 residents were without service for months. The complainant says they spoke to Telus about repairs, but the company kept delaying. The CRTC forwarded the request to Telus and asked the carrier to provide a report to the agency within 20 days. Hall said that during service outages in rural areas where there is no full-time technician, the company aims to send an employee to restore service as soon as possible, adding that any delays are likely due to scheduling errors by dispatchers. "Our focus is on minimizing that."
