SmartHome Security
29 TopicsCan my calls since April 2025 be reviewed ????
I have already spoke to loyalty department with no result and they said there is no where for me to elevate my concern. Moved in May 2025, was told to leave all My equipment at the old house the same as my house before….Called for the new installation for September 30th. Was going to let my contract just run out expiring in May 2026. Upon installation, was charged again for all equipment I had owned previously to the new location and was also renewed into a 3 year contract without my knowledge. Called but they said that I was advised of all this. My calls should be recorded. Why would I renew my contract another 3 years? I think maybe the call agents have sales targets. My last call with Elvis Calanche on Dec9th reassured me I could cancel on May 2026. Then this week my bill went up another $11.00 and apparently I was signed up by Elvis for Telus online security add on so I called in today and Christine cancelled this but then also advised me I’m in contract till September 2028 also asked her if my bill would go down by returning uninstalled equipment the tech left behind and she said because I have an unauthorized discount that she said my bill might go up. She also said. I’m lucky that my bill is low! Feeling very lost and confused with Telus. I only wanted to move my existing contract to another property and the representative signed me up on a new contract???? Why??Now I am stuck.33Views0likes1CommentNew panel, old lock
Telus recently replaced my security panel. At the same time, the technician replaced the batteries in my door lock. The lock works and I can open it with the codes etc, but it is not registered in the panel at all and so I cant lock or unlock the door in my app anymore. (So it also no longer has an audible "door locked" message) I took the lock case off and performed the reset instructions given in the app but it just won't connect at all. Any suggestions? I really dont want to have to call a technician out again.41Views0likes2CommentsRenewed contract without consent
I have a Telus security contract 21832413 that was $32.00 a month renewing in May 2026, when I moved they said I could transfer to another address with no cost. I had it installed and then I was charged over $200 for installation then my bill went up to $42.00 a month. When I called in, I noticed my contract had been extended and renewed without my knowledge and my bill was now $42.00 a month . I called and spoke to loyalty department and Elvis Calanche said not to worry I could still cancel in May of 2026 but my bill went up by $10 a month due to added equipment. No additional equipment was added that I didn’t have at my large home from before. Then he said there’s nothing more I can do. I hung up and he emailed me both contracts. Now my newest bill is showing $52.00 a month and someone from Telus was searching my profile on LinkedIn. I want help on this matter. I feel like I have been taken advantage off and a prisoner to a contract I didn’t renew.48Views0likes1CommentVery Unclear Service
I had a horrible experience with the Telus. I had a 2 years contract with telus from Jan1st 2024 so it will be expiring on 31st Dec 2025. On 1st Jan 2025—when I moved into my current address, I upgraded my wifi speed from 1gb to 3gb. THIS IS WHERE THE PROBLEM HAPPENS. A staff who came to install the wifi said I’m elgible for Home Security System (a little camera) with no EXTRA charges. He said it will be available as a free offer till the end of my contract. I declined the offer since I didn’t need it but he insisted me to take the camera because it was a free offer. Later, they shipped a camera to my address. I checked what it was and put it back in their box. I didn’t use their so called home security system. Now, I’m going to move out from the current address and contacted to Telus to cancle all my services since the contract is ending on Dec 31st. And they said there is a cancellation fees for Home Security System and the service is from Dec 2024 - Dec 2027. For 3 years? I didn’t even ordered their home security service and they made a contract for 3 years. I was so confused because I only accepted it because a Telus staff said it was a part of my wifi plan and it was free till the end of my 2 years contract. I contacted to Home Security Department and they said I had to pay. That doesn’t even make sense. Now I have to pay something I didn’t even use it at all. I’m not going to pay for it and I need actions from Telus asap. Telus need to come clear with their complicated offers and train their staffs to make valid offers.61Views0likes3CommentsJammers.
I was away from home for 10 days with my Telus app on away. Yet when I returned I found the grouts in my bathroom dirty when I had left them chloroxed and when I went to vacuum 2 days later Oct 19th, the cannister was filled with dog hair when my dog was groomed in September. Can people with jammers bypass home security? How can I check activity Oct 6 to 17?88Views0likes3CommentsURGENT: My Payment Arrangement Was Honoured — Yet My account was sent to collections.
I am extremely frustrated and disappointed with how this situation has been handled. I made a formal payment arrangement with your team, and we clearly agreed that if I paid a large amount upfront, my security would be reactivated and I would be able to finish out my contract. I followed through on this agreement and paid over $1,000 exactly as instructed. Despite fulfilling my end of the arrangement, my account was still sent to collections immediately afterward. This is completely unacceptable and shows a serious lack of communication and accountability on your end. I upheld my commitment in full, and I should not be punished for doing exactly what was agreed upon. I expect this to be corrected immediately and for my account to be removed from collections without delay. i also can’t get ahold of anyone or get a straight answer and management doesn’t call back when they say they will.55Views0likes2CommentsRenovations
I am going to be conducting some renovations in the near future and these will likely interfere with the telus home security system, especially the lock/deadbolt and sensors on the front door. What is the procedure for this? The door itself is to be replaced with a new one. Do we need a telus technician to reinstall all the security hardware? What is to be done from the software side of things? Do I just disengage the entire system until the renovations are complete? Thanks22Views0likes1CommentTelus SmartHome Security Login
I try to login through the web via MyTelus and then want to manage SmartHome Security, it asks me to log into it using SmartHome Security credentials. I try using MyTelus login and it does not work. So I try the forgot password function and enter email that is associated with MyTelus account and the email never comes including spam folder. “Send me a login link” works in that I do see the email come through but it ends up for logging into MyTelus account. I do see my security account under MyTelus front page along with my other Telus services so it does appear to be already linked. I am wondering is Telus SmartHome login supposed to be the same as MyTelus log in or is it completely seperate?I try to log in to MyTelus and manage SmartHome Security, but it asks me to log in using SmartHome Security credentials. I try using MyTelus login, but it doesn’t work. I then try the “forgot password” function and enter the email associated with my MyTelus account. The email never comes, even in the spam folder. The “send me a login link” option works, but the email ends up logging me into my MyTelus account. I see my security account listed under MyTelus on the front page, along with my other Telus services, so it appears to be already linked. I’m wondering if Telus SmartHome login is supposed to be the same as MyTelus login or if it’s completely separate?13KViews0likes10Commentsover paid account

Hi, we had two salespeople - looking like they were in their early 20's, one male and one female - arrive at my door today (20th of October). I forgot to verify their IDs but they were selling a bundled Telus ADT phone/internet package that included home security. There have been some scams in the neighborhood and I wanted to make sure they were legitimate. Did you have two agents doing door-to-door sales today in the afternoon, in the streets surrounding Southworth Street in Welland, Ontario?96Views0likes1Comment
