This is not a hardware problem, it is likely an account setup issue. Do you see a profile selection screen at telustvplus.com? If yes, I would try factory resetting the box (Settings > Device Settings > Device Preferences > About > Factory reset). If no or the factory reset doesn't resolve the issue, you may need to contact customer service.

Update:
As per KHR, I did a factory reset which did fix the problem. After fully booting, the “Who’s watching” screen came up with both profiles shown. Thank you.
One minor issue that came up during the setup was trying to get the remote to pair. The white LED on the remote was flashing (pair mode), but still by pressing 7 & 9 on the remote didn’t fix the problem including another reboot on the Telus box. It kept prompting to pair every few minutes.
I think because it was already paired before I did the factory reset, it got confused that it was originally already paired.
In order to fix this issue, I removed the batteries from the remote and then rebooted the box again. When everything came back up to the Home screen, I put the batteries back in and then it immediately automatically paired the remote and the white LED stopped flashing.
