Checking to Verify a Telus Number
The first time this number called me weeks ago, it seemed suspicious, so I blocked it. However, it started calling every few days this past week, so I want to know if I should unblock it or not. The number is 1-833-880-8388. Is this a legit Telus number? Thanks.Cmount9914 hours agoJust Moved In36Views0likes2CommentsCustomer Service above and beyond
I stupidly became another victim of the "free mobile phone" scam. I immediately contacted the scammers (I did not know it was a scam) telling them to cancel the "free" phone. After much protest, the lady said she would and sent an email confirming cancellation... Not trusting that she had actually cancelled it I reached out to "real" Telus through Loyalty program (I think), because scammer said I would get big discount and free phone for my loyalty. Long story short, this is when I found out it was a scam. The agent, I believe his name is Brandon, explained everything to me about what had happened. Because it was within minutes of my finalizing the transaction/activation involved in the scam, he attempted (and ultimately was able) to reverse the iPhone upgrade and refund me the activation charges. Telus was under no legal obligation to help me out of this mess and I wanted to thank Brandon for his patience and for his great customer service. I have now read the Telus Community comments on this scam and various incarnations of similar scams...feel very silly to have fallen for it and will definitely be more suspicious in future.elwatso4719 hours agoJust Moved In31Views0likes1CommentPre-authorized payment discount not active ?
Hi there, I've been using Telus for a little bit more than 3 years now with 2 phone plans and 1 home service. Today, I learned about the pre-authorized payment discount that we can get on phone plans (and potentially on the home internet service too ?) and realized that I've never got it. I am paying my bills with the pre-authorized payment from a checking account (not from a credit card), and from the research that I did, it looks like my plan should benefit from that discount. Does anybody know if the EPP Unlimited 25GB 5G is really eligible for that discount ? Is the PureFibre Internet 1.5G plan also eligible for that ? Thanks in advance, JC80Views0likes3CommentsMissing 2GB Monthly Bonus Data After Renewal
Hello, My $100 annual prepaid plan was automatically renewed on May 23, 2026. When I originally activated this plan, it included a promotional bonus of 2GB of data per month. However, after the renewal, I do not see the 2GB bonus data in my account.Could you please check whether the 2GB monthly bonus data should continue after renewal, and if so, whether it can be restored to my account? Thank you for your assistance.Cellular Signal Issue

Switched to Telus from Rogers a few months ago and am on their business 5G account. Switched cause of the deal I got, but have been finding the LTE/5G to be horrible. I'm in Richmond, but go to Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey and Coquitlam often. In every city, there are very slow internet even in areas with telus stores the internet is super slow, like Richmond center, aberdeen mall, metrotown, coquitlam mall. I just don't understand it. Rogers was nothing like this when in areas like this. Am i missing something here?TKO6042 days agoNeighbour11KViews1like5CommentsNetwork Unlock Code

So kids phone got stolen today at knifepoint and multiple attempts to contact Telus to report the phone as stolen has resulted in nothing but them tying to sell me an Avanti service for $8 to protect the account. This is completely unacceptable at this point and I'm beyond mad that nobody in customer support or at a local store was willing to help. One agent even said I had to go to Apple to report it and hope that they can help. I have since tried to report the IMEI on a separate website for blacklisting phones worldwide but I don't have any hopes that will actually work as it was stupidly easy to do so. I am so disappointed in Telus right now that it has me wondering what value I get from them for the hundreds of dollars that I am paying in charges a month for services.Willpoz2 days agoNeighbour11KViews1like14Comments
