Error message linking WestJet Rewards to TELUS Rewards
I'm getting the error message "We regret to inform you that your WestJet Rewards account linking was unsuccessful. Please try again." when attempting to link my WestJet Rewards account to my TELUS Rewards accounts.
Have tried starting the linking process from both the WestJet end and from the TELUS end, and have tried from multiple browsers all to no avail. I also can't find anything in FAQ or support articles that even reference WestJet Rewards yet.
Unclear as to how to get help to resolve?

Exact same issue, same error message. I've called support many times since the program started. I have to repeat the error message as it seems new to each rep I speak to. Two weeks ago rep put a ticket in with Westjet . Today after an hour of holds, transfers and dealing with tech, im told to call Westjet!
Same thing just happened to me...3 months later.
Update. After 50mins with Westjet I was told to make sure names match both accounts, they did. Westjet said everything looked good on their end, still didn't link. Next day, I tried and accounts linked so solution call WestJet first. Not sure what magic they did.

Same, and Telus reps even "reset" or updated my Telus profile in some way. Happy to provide account details to help with the investigation.

We'll send you a private message to discuss this further, thanks.
Perhaps Telus needs to post an internal memo to allow their agents to know to wait for Westjet to fix this issue.
I just went through this same issue prior to reading this forum. Telus agents are unsure how to handle this and are transferring the calls from one department to another. Thx.

Hello again! We've been notified by our Rewards team that this is an error on the WestJet side. They're already working with WestJet on a fix and will have it implemented asap. Sorry for the inconvenience!
When will this be fixed? Just spent 1 hour 20 minutes on the phone with telus support talking to 3 different people only to be told to call westjet.

When this error was occurring a few months back, it was an issue on the WestJet side. Have you had the chance to speak with them yet about this?
Any update on this yet? Still getting same error.
