Third party charge on my bill.

Thank you for your reply, I have done as you suggested to further protect myself from unwanted charges. It really annoys me that Telus can't tell me or won't tell me where the charge was from and who charged it. It was only $4.99 thankfully since I have had to pay it. If Telus allows any more charges to my account I will be finding another provider rather quickly. I expected better customer service from such a large company.

Another point came up when I was attempting to talk to a real person, I was asked me for the last 4 digits of my drivers license which I declined to give , then I was asked for the last 3 numbers of my SIN number which I also declined to give I was called. That would have saved a lot of time if we hadn't had to have a back and forth email. I kept giving the answer to the security questions that I had signed up with and not the personal items I was being asked for. That took about 20 minutes during which time she was polite and had a lot of patience with me but I guess she just could have said she couldn't help me instead of arguing that I was required to give a different type of security answers that were not put in my account when I signed up about 3 months previous. I spent about 45 minutes on that call, then another hour searching Google and Google play which got zero answers. So bottom line is, Telus stiffed me for 5 bucks with no recourse so that is a big strike one with me as I was going to tell my daughter to switch over but if I have had a "poor" experience with a company I won't subject one of my friends or loved ones to the possible same experience. I wrote a note to Telus and mentioned this, they didn't answer, that is strike two. I am still annoyed and will keep Telus on probation for quite some time.

Thank you for your help and suggestion, I hope it does put some sort of security in place to protect new customers from unknown charges. ( I just reread your response abut contacting you on FB or Twitter and may just do that, thank you again.)

Hi there, was it an in-app purchase? Have a look here how to disable that. https://forum.telus.com/t5/Mobility/Managing-Third-Party-Application-Purchases/ta-p/124426
