I decided to upgrade my phone online as I was due for a new device in June, and the deal online was very good. There was no option to pick the device up in store, and I did not see any warning while placing my order that online orders are to be delivered during business hours ONLY. If I had known that, I never would have placed an online order as I work Mon-Fri I can't take time off of work. Ordered new phone on Tuesday, it was shipped Wednesday, FedEx attempted delivery Thursday & Friday during business hours- again, I did not realize they would only deliver during those times. On Friday, FedEx sent the phone back to Telus Calgary. Spoke to Telus customer service on Friday, she said once the phone is returned to the warehouse and processed the order will be cancelled and I can re-order the device/plan I originally chose, and select pick up in store. On Tuesday the phone was delivered back to Telus. The following Monday (June 8) I emailed telusorders for an update on the phone. Then I called customer service 1-866-488-2709. He said he was going to check with the warehouse on the status of the phone. He called back, said they haven’t inspected it yet for the return process. He said no I cannot order a phone online and pick it up in store. First 2 reps both told me I could. No control from Telus over courier delivery time & day. FedEx won’t let me change pickup point online on my end. He said to try contacting Telus again in 1-2 business days after the return team has inspected the phone. Wednesday June 10: over 48 hours since I emailed Telus order team, no response. Order still says “shipped” on order tracker. I need to return this phone by June 26th or pay the owing amount on my bring it back plan. Two business days later, there is no update, no email from the order team, and I am still without the phone I tried to upgrade to over two weeks ago. To say that I'm unimpressed, disappointed and frustrated as a customer of 7 years is a massive understatement.80Views0likes2CommentsPre-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, JC143Views0likes3CommentsAgreed to swap to Telus pre-move in with promised discount. Discount not applied.
Hi all. I made the choice to sign up for Telus internet a month before the move to my new place, and I was contacted by Telus a few days offer who offered a mobile plan that was said to be cheaper than my then current carrier Fido, due to a deal/discount my new building has with Telus. I didn't think a connection fee was mentioned either when I asked for any extra fees/costs. Cut to now and I have a bill coming soon with the 80$ connection fee and no discount--30 dollars more than my old plan. I might swap back immediately if the deal isn't honored as I don't intend on paying this much every month. I tried to submit a dispute form but I only get hit with 'We’re having trouble submitting your bill dispute at the moment. Please try again later.' :( Where do I reach out to get my promotional price back? This is not what was agreed upon. Thank you!145Views0likes4CommentsFree Samsung Watch Promo Issue
Tag everyone in here and whose really concern with this one. Telus said: "Get a Free samsung watch on us, if you purchased a new phone." Me a customer: "Ok, nice promo! I'll buy 2 phones for me and my wife." Agent said: "You'll get an email and you will receive your free watch after 3months." Me a customer: (a believer) "Ok i'll wait for that email. - Takes me everyday to look in my email for Telus to sent that email but nothing came. Frustrations and anxiety creeps in my head. Message Telus Support - really hard to contact an agent. Free samsung watch add is misleading customers. NO right instructions on how to claim the free samsung watch! All I want. Give us the free samsung watch that was said on the promo add. No more questions asked. GIVE US THE FREE SAMSUNG WATCH!728Views0likes2CommentsUrgent: SCAM - please cancel web order
On Aug 30, I received a call from (604) 338-XXXX. A man claiming to be a TELUS agent offered me a "special deal" - a free iPhone 16 Pro Max with a 2-year $45 plan (100GB data). It sounded too good to be true, and I felt suspicious. He reassured me by saying I would place the order myself on the official TELUS website. When I checked, the prices on the website were different and no free iPhone. He told me I needed to complete the order first, then he could apply the offer. At the credit check step, I hesitated because of the sensitive personal details required. At that point, he gave me his name - David, agent# XXXXXX and another number (825) 817-XXXX. I called that number and reached him, which reassured me enough to continue. I completed the order, paid, and received a TELUS order confirmation email (just as David said I would). David then asked for my order number, postal code, and name, which I provided. But when he asked for even more information, I became suspicious and questioned him. He quickly ended the call, saying he would call me back in 10 minutes to confirm the offer, but he never called back. Since then, I have been extremely worried this is a scam. I immediately called TELUS at (866) 488-2709, but the office was closed. I also contacted the TELUS Store in Metrotown, Burnaby BC at (604)438-8920. but they told me they cannot cancel web orders. Up to now, I still have not been able to reach TELUS successfully. I urgently need TELUS to: (1) Cancel my order (XXXXXXXX) immediately before any device is shipped; (2) Investigate the phone numbers involved; and (3) Confirm whether my personal information and payment are secure. Thank you!585Views0likes2CommentsEscalation Inquiry
I had submitted a rather serious and urgent escalation online through the escalation form over the weekend. I prefer not getting into the extremely distressing, saddening and maddening details unless I must, however; the main issue is that we are now at Wednesday and I have yet to receive any kind of response. Any advice? Telus has left us in an absolutely horrendous situation because of all this and the experience is all the way from the frontline LnR Rep to one of the Managers. I had also called in to request to speak with a Manager from Canada but was denied. I am tired of being lied to by Telus Managers (and Reps) while at the same time being given completely false and incorrect information (I know all the calls are recorded). And this is a Business account too. sigh...patience is wearing razor thin.593Views0likes9CommentsBad Shipping Address - Can't Get My Phone
I've been a Telus customer for over 20 years. On Nov. 22, I ordered a new phone and plan, as my old one was due to expire, and I was on the buy it back program. On Nov. 24, I received an email indicating my new phone has been shipped via FedEx and provided a tracking number. On Nov. 25, FedEx called me and said the shipping address was invalid and to call them. Over the next couple of days I spoke to FedEx three times; the shipping label Telus provided only had the city and province on it. I tried to correct the address, but FedEx was not able due to restrictions that Telus put on the shipping. I asked for FedEx to send it to one of their outlets near me and I would pick it up in person. FedEx was not able to due that due to the shipping restrictions put on it. FedEx then informed me that only Telus can fix the problem. I still don't understand why FedEx would not have contacted Telus directly to resolve the problem, instead of involving me. Since then I have called Telus five times, and they either have refused to fix their problem, or said they have submitted forms to correct the issue. Every few days go by and no updates, package still stuck at FedEx. Finally, I receive notification from FedEx that they are returning the package to Telus as undeliverable. I contacted Telus one last time and wanted them to send me a new phone. The person I spoke to finally confirmed they would do it, and submitted forms for that to happen. I was supposed to receive an email when the new order is processed and shipped. Well no email has been received, and now I will need to call Telus again to try and get my new phone. It's been almost a month now, and I am now getting a notification that if I don't return my old phone soon, I will not get credit for it under the program. I am hoping someone at Telus will respond to this that can actually solve the problem, because I'm fed up and prepared to walk away.219Views0likes3Comments
