home security
16 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.31Views0likes1CommentRenewed 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.47Views0likes1CommentVery 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.57Views0likes3CommentsVery unprofessional Door-to-door Marketing and customer support
I'd like to report an incident involving unprofessional behaviour from a Telus employee and customer care representative. The employee visited my home after 8:30 PM, and despite my polite decline of the services, they continued to ask personal questions. They also made inappropriate comments about my security camera. When I called customer care to express my concern, the representative seemed dismissive and accused me of being a repeat caller, which was untrue. They also hung up on me. I appreciate Telus's efforts, but I believe there's a need for improvement in respecting customers' personal space and time, as well as in the customer care department's approach to addressing concerns. I'd like someone from Telus to investigate and resolve this issue.264Views0likes4CommentsLucky to get hold of Tech Support
May be other customers feel the same pain/joy to approach Tech Support. Been trying to get hold of the tech support from couple of months for the issues in cameras and every time I try to approach via the number shared by TELUS on there website my efforts rendered useless and broke my heart like M leaf's. But tried again with enthusiasm next time. After trying many times in the span of 3 months I finally got hold Tech Support not sure how, same phone and same chatbot let my call go through. What a sign of relief and joy I felt have no words to describe. Well the tech support was very nice and helped to resolve the some issues and promised to send new camera. ... continued ......😂😂43Views0likes1CommentNo call when alarm triggered, again.
My alarm had been triggered a few times since having this service and I never received a call. I believe this is a breach of agreement where the provider is not able to fulfill their obligation. I've seen a few other posts about this so it doesn't look uncommon. Is this still happening with others?93Views0likes5CommentsReuse existing QOLSYS panel with Telus Smart Home
I'm moving into a house that already has Telus Home Security equipment's in place. It has iQ Panel and door/window sensors. Right now, when I open or close the door/window, it doesn't have the chime sounds. I have checked in the panel, in the PowerG test, all sensor have no signal, and I think that's why sensors are not pairing with the panel now. I tried to entered with installer code for advanced settings, but default code 1111 does not work. All I want is to have chime when I open/close the door/windows.51Views0likes1CommentLack of Technical Support
I am an old ADT customer transferred to Telus after their purchase of ADT. My security system is Honeywell Lynx Plus model L3000. My system needs service, either to replace a defective door sensor or reprogram to eliminate a Zone. Contacted Telus mid September to request service, given a ticket # and was told request would be escalated. After approx. a month of no contact or service call I followed up. Told the service call was NOT escalated, unable to find a technician who knows how to service my system. New service ticket prepared and promised the request would be treated as urgent and escalated. Several follow ups, still cannot find anyone who knows how to service my ADT system. Now almost waiting 2 months for Telus to find a technician who understands the ADT security system. It's a 15 minute reprogram job. No problems with ADT service, no problems with Telus service 6 years ago but today no one available. Where can I please find help ?Solved52Views0likes3CommentsOld 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.55Views0likes1Comment
