2 TopicsTelus customer service lying to customers
Telus has been calling me twice a day to sell the Telus mobility services, ever since I enrolled for Telus home service. Each time it is from a different number hence not possible to screen the calls. They convinced me to consider a discounted connection offer as am a Telus home service customer. Sent me SIM card and promised repeatedly that I have time to consider till the activation of the SIM card. As I will only be charged once the SIM is activated. That was not true. Then they charged me for the unactivated SIM card. I called them and they confirmed the charges are dropped. Again a lie. And now they have sent the case to action collection. Never thought I have to see this day. I would like to complain via this forum as I have been made to believe lie after lie by the on call support. I would like to claim damages and distress caused by Telus with repeated calls and lies. How do you do business if you allow your own customer service to convey lies and misinformation to your own customers? I know how, because you have the market monopoly!59Views0likes4CommentsFraudulent Calls/Emails
I received a call yesterday and today from 1-866-558-2245 and 1-866-558-2277. Both were offering me an upgrade on my phone and plan, paying just 55$/ month for a brand-new iPhone 15 or Samsung Galaxy S23 and Tariff Plan for each line + Unlimited Text Messages (All network across the Canada/USA) + Unlimited Calls (All network across the Canada/USA) + 30GB 5G (Internet Data) + 1000 International Calling Minutes. I thought it was weird that they were calling for a promotion but didn’t have any of my information on file, including my email, or see that I just got a new phone/ plan less than a year ago. I asked them to send an email and the email came from promotion@telusupgrade .com and was full of grammar and spelling mistakes. Luckily I have just enough tech literacy to recognize this to be a scam, but it did take a bit of sleuthing to realize. Hopefully others can do some searching and find relevant posts to see this is a scam before falling for something that feels just too good to be true.4.1KViews0likes2Comments
