Managing Third-Party Application Purchases
Third-party vendors can charge applications and web services directly to your TELUS invoice instead of requiring credit card payment. These charges appear as application purchases on your bill. How Third-Party Billing Works Vendors offer pay-per-use applications and web-based services like mobile dating or social networking sites. When you download or subscribe through their platform, charges apply to your TELUS account automatically. This eliminates the need for separate credit card or PayPal transactions. Disputing Unauthorized Charges Contact the vendor directly if you see charges for services you didn't subscribe to. The vendor must resolve billing disputes for their services. If you don't recognize the vendor name on your bill, contact TELUS support to identify which company charged your account. TELUS can provide vendor contact information but cannot remove third-party charges without vendor authorization. Prevent Future In-App Purchases iPhone (App Store) Open Settings Tap General Scroll down and tap Restrictions Tap Enable Restrictions Create a passcode when prompted Under Allowed Content, turn off the In-App Purchases slider All in-app purchases now require your passcode. Android (Google Play) Open the Google Play Store app Tap Menu Select Settings Scroll to User Controls Check the box next to "Use password to restrict purchases" Enter your Google password to confirm All in-app purchases now require your Google account password. When to Contact TELUS Contact TELUS if you need help identifying an unknown vendor on your bill or if a vendor refuses to remove fraudulent charges after you've disputed them directly. TELUS can provide vendor contact details and escalate unresolved billing disputes, but the vendor must authorize any charge removals for their services.

Bill overdue errors
I've noticed a pretty concerning trend with my telus mobility and internet bills, where my account will show my account is overdue just as a new billing cycle commences. I've tried the good ole log-out log-in trick, but alas I am stressed out of my mind that I am late for a payment I have already made every month. This overdue error is doubly confusing as I use pre-authorized payments. Here is my anxiety-inducing dashboard (still showing October's bill, despite Nov 15th being the new bill cycle): and here is my very contradictory transaction history, showing the bill was paid on the 31st (and the existence of a November bill that I do not have a statement for): Any fixes for this? I've called in before and have just been told to wait a few days and to check again, and by then it is usually resolved (just at the expense of my sanity). I can't help but feel that if the shoe was on the other foot Telus's payment department wouldn't exactly accept me paying them out of whack with the excuse of "just trust me bro".Partner passed away, need to cancel his account
What do I need to do to cancel my partner’s account? He passed away a few weeks ago and said that I won’t be able to cancel it until after he’s gone and I can bring a death certificate. I don’t mind going to the nearest store to do this, I just don’t want to forget something and have to go back and forth. I already have so much to do since his passing. I’d like to get this taken care of quickly. thanks in advance
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.
Specialist appt call. didn’t help me then transferred me to closed department
The specialist just called me to review my whole account. Didn’t answer any of my questions and without letting me know transferred me to a closed department . You guys leave me with no choice to to contact crtc or please have a manager or someone who will actually call me today or I will be contacting crtc to make complaint that no one will help meEmails from Collections - could this be for a closed account?
So I have been receiving mysterious emails from General Credit Services recently, saying I owe Telus $300. At first I thought this was an issue with my internet account, but the account number GCS has does not match that, so now I'm wondering if this bill is from my old mobile phone account? I switched form Telus to Koodo back in January (broke my old phone, decided to replace it, Koodo was cheaper) and I don't have any account info for my old mobility account anymore. I also have not recieved any communication from Telus about owing $300 and I don't remember the Koodo clerk saying anything about that when he moved my account over. Can anyone help me find out about this account number and if I actually owe Telus $300?
Sent my bill to collection agency
Closed my account in 2018 with 0 balance. Got a warning from a general credit Inc saying I owe 107 dollars and it was my second notice today. 7 years later.. Warned if I don't pay, they will report me to credit bureau. How dare telus do this and try to destroy my credit over their own mistake. Completely unacceptable. This is not the way to do business. What is wrong with this company. Absolutely pathetic. Telus if you actually read this, contact me and fix this asap.
