Does Telus / Public Mobile support the Twitter short code 21212?

It worked when I was with Rogers but I ported over and it stopped.

Yes they do, you are able to short code with Telus as well.

Oh, that’s unfortunate. I picked up some good information in real time that way from some twitter accounts I follow. How do I request that this gets added?

Thanks - too technical for me and 100 probably not enough. Anyway to ask Telus to implement? Seems most carriers do. Not sure why they wouldn’t.

I found this web page, seems like it is Public Mobile, but... I think it is old Public Mobile Community before Telus purchased it OR before Public Mobile Community moved to a new network platform.

Public has said in the past that they support Twitter's 21212 and 40404 short-codes in this thread from 2015, but that either has changed or broken based on what others have said in this thread. I personally have used none so they may work.

Anyone know how I get a reply from Telus / Public Mobile? Maybe it’s an oversight they can easily correct.

If you want an official response, you'd have to contact the Moderator Team, or other actual staff.

How do I contact the Community Moderators?

For your convenience, here's a link to send them a private message.
Here's how to read and reply to private messages.
For more detailed information, read the knowledge article.

When will they get back to you?:

Support hours are in EDT and run Mon-Fri 9AM to 9PM, and Sat-Sun from 9AM to 7:30PM. Outside of these hours they will not be responding to private messages, and will be queued for the next day. So don't worry, they will get to you.
Messages are responded to in the order in which they are received, which can affect response time depending on queue length.
Usual response time varies between 1-3 hours, but can take up to 48 hours.
Please do not send multiple separate private messages, as it slows down support.
