Transfer ownership of home services to surviving spouse

Hello

Looking for advice / assistance on transferring account to a surviving spouse
Father passed away and trying to transfer home services over to his wife's name (80 yrs young)

she also has her own Telus home phone account  
Have spent many hours on phone 3 different occasions - mostly waiting on hold and receiving conflicting advice 
1st agent says the Home services email my Telus login passwords etc will transfer straight over - and will follow up next day at an approximated time by agent to confirm  - no call back 
Call in again - agent reports no problem - then says account is on copper transferred  -  hold again 
next agent says will not be able to use same Anonymous.net email if transferred - and to just create a new Gmail account

Promises made for follow up calls do not happen. Forced to call in again 1-888-811-2323 having to re-live and re explain the ordeal all over again - I cannot believe how disconnected this process is - people pass everyday why is this process so broken - Greatly appreciate advice wisdom and suggestions on what has to be done to complete what seems to be a simple process.  
Thanks for your time  
Randy

    I did receive the private message from you with direction on how to proceed
    I see you are a standing active member here on the site offering help to many
    I am however curious if private messages (with links to other sites) is standard practice

    Please excuse my apprehension here
    The links provided appear to be valid
    Can the community confirm links via PM is standard practice and this is not a scam or other nefarious act
    Again, please excuse my apprehension and of being overly concerned
    Thanks again

    Definitely not the experience we want our customers to have. I'll send you a private message to discuss further.
