Solving an escalation
I spent 2.5 hours with Telus yesterday speaking to 3 different employees & waiting. Telus is not honoring the verbal offer that I was given by the first agent - they are redacting their statement and breaking the verbal contract that I entered with them when I agreed to proceed with the offer. I escalated the issue and requested a supervisors intervention, he agreed to look into the issue and call me back the following day at a time conducive to my work schedule. He called me back with no answer other than redacting the offer, I also requested a call back to cancel TV services as I already waited on hold to do it the day before and they were unable. I was told I would get a call this evening from a cancellation rep and I would hear back from him. No one contacted me. My experience with customer service has been horrendous. If this does not get rectified I intend on issuing a formal complaint.
Telus taking me to collections after an account closure from 5 years ago
I recently started getting emails from a collections agency for an account that was closed back in 2020 which was 5 years ago. I have spoken a few times with customer support, the collections team, and the loyalty team at Telus and have been sent all over the place with no answers. The collections team originally stated that they would go through an approval process to credit the charge back since I was never given any indication that I had owed any money to Telus. No emails, no phone call, and I had opened a new home services account with them a year and a half after closing the original home services account but was never told a thing. Just this week I had spoke with the collections team again who said that the account was opened by a technical mistake and that they would put in the requests with the back office team to credit the amount back. The collections team agent then said I will have to speak with the loyalty team to get the credit the amount back so they forwarded my call to the loyalty team. Speaking with the loyalty team member they informed me they would put in some approvals and call me back in a few days to provide an update. cont..
Internet service contract expiration arbitrarily changed by TELUS
I signed up in October 2023 for what was then called "office" internet, with a 3 year contract (expiring October 2026). At the end of 2024 we moved, so I started inquiring about moving my existing service to our new home. After several back and forth emails and phone calls, I was told that the move would not be a problem, since the same fibre 1G service was available at my new location, and that the existing static IP address could be kept as well. On the date scheduled the TELUS installer came to connect the service but, surprise, I was told me that he was not aware of this been a continuation of a business plan, but a new home installation. After a couple of internal call on the tech part, my service was enabled (also got a new account number). After several calls with tech support, my static IP was as well. Fast forward one year, and I contacted TELUS to inquire about possibly switching to home service ASAP, or when my contract expires, and also ask about TELUS repeatedly overcharging my account, even though a valid CC has been on file according to the MyTelus website. In the course of multiple phone conversations, I am told that my contract is now set to expire in November 2027. I kept asking the reason why this could have happened, since my original contract duration was 3 years, not 4. Eventually the rep tells me that the reason for the change was the move itself: according to them there was simply no way the contract could not have been "reset" by moving, even though this was never pointed out to me ever during me asking about moving my service I asked to be called back by a supervisor, and she confirmed that the move was the one and only reason for this. There is NOTHING they can do, except moving me to monthly renewals, which effectively doubles my costs for the next 2 years. I've been with TELUS since the 90s, copper, DSL and finally fibre. I just wanted to ask if anyone knows if the story I've been told makes any sense.
Incorrect Information On Bill Website?
I logged into my account to see that on my bill page it says that I have an overdue bill of 10 days (said it was due on December 2nd) but I paid that bill on Nov 13th. So when I clicked the pay now, as I assumed the website would be correct, I realized that I already paid for the month and I now paid ahead of time for December now. This is more of a notice to the tech side of the webpage but I did not appreciate that jump care only for it to misread my payments. And I am curious if anyone else had this message pop up for them? Thanks!

Why did Telus send my outstanding balance to collections before statement due date?
They sent my outstanding balance to collections, effectively screwing my credit, less than one week after I suspended my services. The due date on my final bill, which was never actually sent to me by email OR snail mail, is September 24th. The current billing cycle is for a month that I didn't have any services through them. This is absurd.Bills bug
I was checking my bill that is for August and found my bill suddenly doubled, even though the bill file says -- Balance forward from your last bill is 0. How could this happen? I tried to contact with Customer service but no one is responding. Is there anyone who can help to resolve this bug?
