    so the answer is no then,  I can't buy a phone from Telus as an existing customer without changing my current plan.

      Not unless you purchase it outright. Getting a device on a 2 year term will require a rate plan change.

        Can I purchase it outright through Telus? that's been my question the whole time 🙂

    so I can't buy a device directly from Telus? as an existing customer

      Your best bet would be to purchase a device from the retailer directly.

    There doesn't seem to be an option for just a phone.  Or do I have to go to a store in person?  online it kicks me to select a plan after picking a phone.

      Not available online, you'd have to go directly to Apple, Samsung, etc.

    If you purchase the new device outright, there shouldn't be an issue. If just renewing and getting a new device (but not fully purchasing it) it's doable if the plan you're on is still in-market (available).
