I don't think this is standard across the board with Telus. I've also heard (rumours?) of a similar $250 prefix change free associated with Shaw/AS6327 changes before, and also a much larger $750 change prefix change fee with BELL-GT/AS6539, but the customers I know who use them definitely don't get charged these types of fees.
