Telus Corp. wants to pass on credit card fees to customers and plans to add a 1.5 percent “processing fee” starting this fall.

In a letter to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, the telecom giant says the surcharge is intended “to cover the processing costs that credit card payments incur” and would apply to current and future customers outside Quebec.
