Replacement remote TV Digital Box

hello. Went to the store to get a replacement remote to which they provided a slimline 2 remote which doesn’t work. 

I need a replacement remote for my digital TV box. How can I order one?

 

thanks

    There is no more stock available of the original Slimline remote, so your only option would be to find one privately, perhaps through a family member / friend, or online, etc. You mentioned the Slimline 2 not working... were you receiving an error trying to program it?

      The Android based TV box, where the remote works through Bluetooth. 

      neither the slimline or slimline 2 remotes will work, and I have no idea how to get a replacement Bluetooth remote.

      This is not for a slimline remote. This is for the Telus digital TV box. 

      The store erroneously gave me the wrong remote.

        Pasting my reply from a previous inquiry. https://forum.telus.com/t5/Home-Services/Replacement-Remote-TV-Digital-Box/m-p/166054

         

        "You should absolutely be able to order a replacement remote from an agent and compatible remotes are NOT available in stores (the Slimline II is a legacy remote that works with legacy equipment and does not have Bluetooth capabilities)...you can use the Google Home mobile app as a remote until you can get a replacement."
