S26 Ultra Galaxy Watch 8 Promo Email
Greetings, Just wanted to see if anyone has gotten their Galaxy Watch 8 email to claim and activate the $15/mo plan yet? I received my phone and plan went active 6 weeks ago (fine print stated 4-6 weeks eta on email) and so far nothing yet. It seems there is no way to track if the offer is still processing through my TELUS account. I am just interested in making sure there was no mix up on the back end in regards to the promo. My Galaxy Watch 4 classic is on its last legs and the Watch 8 was the big draw when I signed contract. Any update would be appreciated. Thank you
mytelus app
I'm a recent new customer and downloaded the mytelus app onto my iphone and under the Quick Actions section it states that i completed "1 out of 4 tasks" however when i see the remaining tasks that need to be done they are in fact complete and i have verified that. The UI interface is annoying and i deleted the app, turned off my iphone and reinstalled the app and still under the Quick Action section it still states that "1 out of 4 tasks" need to be done. Yes a minor cosmetic annoyance but is there any way how to get rid of this message. Thanks.
MyTelus App access issue after account cancellation; collection agency contacted despite fee miscommunication
I had Telus mob. account <Admin edit: removed personal info. Please see house rules.> with 2-year cont. In May 25 and prior to end of term (June 2025), I requested cancelling the account, keep phone and transfer number to a regular Telus mobility. We were told by Rep at Telus Wireless City Calgary that we would be contacted for remaining fee of 300 Canadian Dollars as we decided to keep phone. I tried to access account via "MyTelus App" and every time a message that account linked to email and log in credentials was cancelled and no access. Not even given account number to use in communications. I called Customer Service and every time I call to check, Telus Rep came back with answer that they could not see any outstanding fees on any of accounts. I kept checking and all of a sudden, I received a call from collection agency. I requested details from agency, and they provided Telus account details related to case. I phoned Telus back and filed several complaints and escalated issue several times to Escalation Team. Hours of phone calls, I tried to explain to them that previous Telus reps miss-communication and misleading info and also me having no access anymore to the account via MyTelus App led to this issue. I didn't receive any mail/communication from Telus to my address or email linked to MyTelus account informing me with outstanding amount. After escalation team filed a request form to Payment Depart, request was denied and reason was that Telus sent me a message at time I cancelled the account, which was received. By the way we were informed by the Telus Rep at time of cancelling account that a message was going to be sent and we received it, but no info on account billing. However, they totally ignored issues listed above, which were initiated by their system and reps and led to me being penalized for their mistakes and chaos. In Feb 26, escalation team directed me to Payment Department and pay was done after much hassle and surprisingly after a month I figured that Telus didn't send payment notification to collection agency creating issues and problems. I need Telus to cancel case with collection.Fed up with Caller Id Spoofing
Generally changing a cell number isn't recommended if your mobility number has been used for caller Id Spoofs. However, for the past 5 months, I have been getting numerous call backs and text messages from caller id spoofing a week (sometimes several a day). Today someone threatened to report me to the police for harassing them. I have reported it to the fraud and cybercrime RCMP site. Should I just go ahead and change my mobility number? Obviously, this will be a major pain in the arse.
Google Play Charges to my Telus Bill
Hello, I got a Google Pixel 3 watch when I renewed my mobility contract back in March 2025. In June 2025 I started getting random Google Play charges added to my Telus bill, apparently through my watch 'phone number'. I have never setup Google payments through Mobile Carriers on my Google account, transactions are always through my bank. I checked my Google transaction history, my payments and subscriptions, payment methods etc and these transations do not show up ANYWHERE! When I first contacted Telus they told me they could not tell which vendors the charges were from, but they were able to provide a corrolation ID for each purchase. I submitted a Unauthorized Charge Claim to Google and they came back with the automated message: 'After reviewing your claim, we were unable to confirm fraudulent activity in this case, so no refund will be provided by Google at this time. If you would like to pursue the matter further, you can reach out to your financial institution.' The problem with that response is, my bank can't help because these charges weren't through my bank. I then contacted Telus again via phone, and this time they were able to tell me the charges were for Snapchat, and Audible (I don't purchase anything through either of these apps). I asked for the corrolation ID's for the newer charges and the woman said she couldn't provide them. Yet when I contacted them again through live chat they were able to provide the IDs. I then submitted another claim and received the same response. To reiterate, these charges have not appeared anywhere else across my accounts; Google, Snapchat, Audible etc, they only show up on my Telus bills! I do not have Mobile Carrier set up as a payment method! The charges are now up to $32.15. I don't know what else I can do so I am hoping to see if anyone else has had a similar situation. Thanks for reading!
Bad 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.
Mobility offer - scam or great deal?
Received a call from 888-519-0122 - said they were calling from Telus. Being polite, and having time, I was curious about the offer - asked about some kind of streaming / mobile plan bundle. Eventually landed on talking about $35 / month / line deal for mobile - unlimited talk / text CAN + US, 5G LTE, etc. I asked to be emailed the details - he said he couldn't do that (something about competitors getting the info?). Seemed a bit off. So I asked for a call back b/c I was busy. When he called back, I asked for additional verification that he was from Telus. He read account details (billing details, etc.). These were accurate. He then sent an automated "how to sign up for an e-sim" email that was also legit. When I call back the number, it goes to a Telus automated menu. However, when googling the number, I came across these two conflicting posts with Telus: Post 1: It IS a legitimate number (https://forum.telus.com/discussions/mobile_devices/is-this-a-scam/171441) Post 2: It is NOT a legitimate number (https://forum.telus.com/discussions/mobile_devices/verify-telus-number/174523) Anyway - I read somewhere that you can ask the rep to post a comment on your Telus account that you can then login to see. He said he didn't know how. So I said that if he can figure that out, I'm interested. If not, sorry. So - am I too paranoid or appropriately cautious?
