Telus Connect is showing neighbours' hardware...
Originally posted on Reddit but I was asked to post here... The title says it all, really. I haven't used the Telus Connect app for a while, and when I logged in today, it's showing the neighbours' Hub, Boost and Optik TV, along with all of their connected devices. When I log directly into MY Hub via a browser, however, I can see all my hardware and other details. I'm going to hazard a guess that this is a huge privacy issue, as I have access to all their settings and such. Is someone at Telus going to get this sorted for me?
Shipping label to return device takes days to receive??
Hello, I'm getting frustrated with Telus as a simple email apparently takes days to receive. I have an old phone that needs to be returned under their bring it back plan. I went to one of their physical store and was told that they can't help me because I ordered my new phone online. The person "sent" me the email with the shipping label to help but I haven't received any email with attached shipping label. She told me that I should've received the shipping label already when my order was processed. None was sent to me. I called *611 two times. Both times the agent "sent" the shipping label emails to two different emails of mine. But still no telus shipping label was found in any of my emails in both circumstances even though they wait for me receive it. The second agent I talked to said he physically can see the electronic shipping label but gave me a reason that due to black Friday coming up, telus has lots of orders and processing is taking some time for the shipping labels to get sent. He assured me that within 24 hours I will get the shipping label. I told him straight up that I don't believe him because I was told the same during my first call. Now my concern is in this day and age, emails do not take days to be received. Under telus' bring it back plan, users have 30 days to return their old device upon receiving their new phone. I feel that I've been getting the run around and eventually will get charged for not returning my old phone. My phone is packaged and ready to go. All that is missing is this mysterious, hard to get shipping label. I feel that I'm going to call telus support again in the next few days for the same issue. How long does it take to receive shipping labels to return phone? Is there another way to further escalate this issue, just to get shipping labels, because the phone agents are not of help. All they say is to wait. I'm afraid that I keep on waiting but eventually get charged for keeping the phone.
Purolator waybill to return equipment was never sent
I need a waybill that a Telus agent promised to send by email but it never arrived. Agent romised a couple of months ago and yesterday again, when I called to inquire about the status. Worst of all: Telus already charged me for the equipment!! If any support agent is on this forum, please help! Carol
Old Account Sent to Collections
Okay, Eric from the Telus reddit said to post here, so this is pretty much my final attempt to get this resolved. Back in 2021-22 I had a Home Security account. I closed it in March of 2022, and received my final bill for $0.00 in June 2022. I have an email copy of this bill and a livechat agent confirmed the cancellation date for me a few days ago, since I didn't have an email record of that (I had cancelled over the phone). A few weeks ago I started receiving collections emails from General Credit Services saying I owe Telus $300 on that account. I have no idea where this came from or why it's sent to collections as I haven't received any communication from Telus about any outstanding balance. Since then, when I try to get info GCS and Telus are just bouncing the issue back and forth. The Telus livechat can't access my info because it was sent to collections. The collections company initially said they'd send a bill but never did, and now refuses to help because "Telus doesn't send bills for recently closed accounts." When I pointed out that it was closed 3.5 years ago they just said "the only way we'll stop harassing you is if you get Telus to say you don't owe anything." I really need someone who is able to see this account info to call or chat with me. I strongly suspect this was a billing error that got way out of hand, considering my last bill was $0 and I never heard from telus about cancellation fees or returned equipment not arriving at their warehouse. But if I can't get someone to talk to me about this I literally have no choice but to wait until the collection appears on my credit report and then file a dispute with all agencies. I have been trying for weeks to resolve this, but I really cannot just be sending a random company hundreds of dollars without knowing why. Plus, if there is some weird billing issue, paying GCS might not even solve it and then I'll be doing this all over again in a few months. Anyway...Eric, you told me to post here, so help me out please.Unable to Send a Detailed PM to Telus Support
As I saw in the community, many people were recommended by moderators to message the Telus Support official account with a PM regarding their situation. I have some sensitive details regarding a Canada Post Support case that I need Telus to take a look at but I am unable to even get confirmation that my message is sending? Is there a character limit that I am not aware about or something? Not that my message is that long to begin with, but after I click "send" the button reacts but the window with my original message remains? What can I do? Should I just publish some of my case information here that is not very detailed regarding personal information so a Mod can help me here?
Can't complete upgrade to new phone
Telus app and telus website will not process the phone and phone plan I am trying to purchase. Both the telus website and telus app I get stuck at infinite loading screen at "Payment details Check that your billing address matches your card's address." Will not process. I confirmed my bank address matches my billing address, updated my credit card by deleting and re-adding, and my billing address is current on all accounts. I called telus and they could not help me but offer me the same plan and phone for way more than the offer I have available. past that point.Why do TELUS CUSTOMER SUPPORT make me regret I made a call??
Just got off a call with Telus customer support as I wanted to change a plan which is available on the website homepage under Black Friday deals, however the agent on the call says Black Friday deals are only available for phones and not plans. When told her about the plan is visible on your homepage, she mentioned she can not see it and for Black Friday plan deals to call in Dec. When asked if I could talk to the supervisor, the response is there is no supervisor!! How does this whole thing work?? All support calls with Telus this year have ended with similar bad experience!Changing to Optik TV from Pik TV: New plan active but not working
I figured I'd ask here first because a) I'm not in a position to contact support right at this moment and b) I might be moving to fast on it. Right now though this sounds like it's a call to support. I took advantage of the $55 black Friday 2 theme pack + 1 premium deal to make the jump from Pik TV to Optik yesterday, with the agent I spoke to saying it would be activated today. Today, I can see that Optik is now active on my account and replacing Pik TV, but MyTelus is not showing my theme packs and my Telus TV+ apps are not working and seem to try to refer back to my Pik TV plan, saying that my service has ended, even after logging out and logging back in. Right now the only thing working on it is the included Netflix subscription by way of the premium option. If I login to order.fibre.telus.com I can see Optik has replaced Pik TV, that tur service is active and that my theme packs are there but it hasn't translated to it showing up in MyTelus or the service actually being available. I feel like there's one of three things happening here: 1. The service is active but hasn't been provisioned yet 2. The service hasn't been provisioned correctly 3. The old Pik TV service still exists in some way and is conflicting with Optik. (Note: Pik TV is no longer showing on my account, which is how it should be) If anyone has any experience with making this transition (ex. Time to the service being availableI could use the feedback, otherwise I'll probably be contacting support when I have the time.Extremely Disappointed with Service Delays and Lack of Support
I had a really frustrating experience with Telus recently. I signed up for internet at my new home and was promised it would be installed by November 21. They even scheduled a technician to come and set everything up. But just one day before the installation date, I got a call saying they couldn’t do it on time because the infrastructure in my area isn’t ready, and it’ll take another two weeks. This has been such a huge inconvenience for me. I work from home and absolutely need the internet to do my job. I asked them if they could provide a temporary solution, like a wireless modem, but they said no. I even suggested they give me a credit so I could use mobile data in the meantime, but they refused that too. So now I’m stuck with no internet for two weeks, and Telus hasn’t taken any responsibility or offered any real help. I’m really disappointed with how they’ve handled this whole situation.
