Why do I still have to pay Telus for email when they've handed my email account to Google Gmail?
I've been paying over $15 per month for Telus webmail (2 email addresses) for years...although most email services are free. Now they've migrated the accounts to Gmail. Can I stop my monthly payment...
If you want free email from Google then you need to get a gmail account [email protected].
If you want to continue using [email protected] then you need to pay or be a TELUS Internet customer. TELUS pays Google to run the telus.net mail service, it's not free to TELUS as it would be for individual gmail accounts.
rc Never paid for email service it is inside of the internet package from day one on using telus internet. At one time norton was free inside the package on copper when i had fiber installed they started charging. I have 25/25 at 85 $ no extra email charge.
For about $7 per month TELUS will provide an email address, people usually use this as a temporary transition measure when they move from TELUS internet to another provider.
Yes email is "free" if you have TELUS internet.
