Telus TV PVR keeps deleting all recordings and scheduled
We recently switched from Shaw (July) our PVR has totally erased (including all scheduled) 8 times since July. Anyone else have this issue ?
There is currently a temporary service disruption that was caused by one of our vendors. Some personalised services like recordings are temporarily unavailable. Your recordings should not have been deleted - they will be available when full service is restored. I'll reply here when that happens.

Do you have the TELUS TV Digital Box (model TELUSTV-21T on the bottom) with a remote control that has Netflix and Prime Video buttons? If yes, you do NOT need a new set-top box if you lost recordings as they are stored in the cloud, and accessed from your box, from the TELUS TV+ app and from telustvplus.com. Our service has been restored, including recordings, so I would urge you to check the box or your TELUS TV+ apps again to check if your recordings have re-appeared (mine were restored after being unavailable for the couple of hours).
If your recordings have been restored, you can call or chat back in with an agent to cancel the order for a replacement box - this will save you the work of installing a new box and sending back the old one.
There is nothing you need to do on your end to prevent this from happening, it was system-wide due to a change a vendor made in their systems. After investigating what happened, they resolved the issue and recordings should have been restored.
Yes, we have that type of digital box with the remote that has Netflix and Amazon buttons. We rebooted the box and our recordings never came back. We also still don’t have the ability to record shows (the record button has not come back on both the tv and the Telustv+ app). I’m resigned to thinking the recording are gone. Half a day spent on this.

What happens when you go to telustvplus.com or on the telus tv+ app? Are you able to see recordings there?
