If you've recently upgraded or changed your smartphone, there are a number of things to be sure to do. We've got some resources below to help you with your new device. Ordering Online Most flagship devices are available for preorder the week before the official launch date. This is a great way to ensure you're getting the hottest new device from the convenience of your home. We all know though that the wait for that phone to arrive can be excruciating. To help, we recommend using our handy Online Order Tracking Tool to keep tabs on your order. We've even got info on how to use it over here! Swapping Your SIM If your previous phone used the same sized SIM as your new one, it's usually as easy as removing it and inserting the SIM into the new one. If you want to swap the SIM online, we've got a handy guide for that as well. If however, your new phone requires a different sized SIM or if you're a new TELUS client, you'll need to purchase one. We always suggest ordering one at the same time as your phone but if you forgot, you can easily order one online or pick one up at the nearest TELUS store. Transferring Content Check out our extensive guide for transferring data from your old phone to your new one. Protecting Your Device Now that your new phone is ready, let's talk about protecting it. An important first step in doing that is to consider a new phone case to protect your new smartphone. Not just an accessory, they can provide peace of mind with shock-absorbing features, waterproofing, and extra grip. Always a smart move. Purchasing an extended warranty is also a good choice, as manufacturer warranties only cover hardware failure. Device Care Complete and AppleCare+ extend the manufacturer's warranty up to 2 years and add protection against accidental damage. FR version12KViews0likes0CommentsReporting Spam
Reporting Spam Here at TELUS we are constantly working to prevent spam texts and other fraudulent communications from reaching our customers. There are actions you can take as well to not only spot a spam message but to report it to our team for investigation. The main things to remember if you receive a spam text message are: Forward the spam message to the shortcode 7726 (SPAM). If you're receiving more than one, we recommend putting 7726 into your contact list so it's easily remembered. Don't respond directly to the number that sent you the spam text. This will alert the spammer that your number is genuine and active. If you're not able to view the number or if it's email spam, forward us the entire message (along with the subject header if it's an email). How To Forward a Spam Text From Your Phone To 7726 iPhone 1. Touch and hold the message 2. Select More 3. Select the message you want to forward, then select the arrow in the bottom right corner 4. Enter 7726 5. Select Send Android / Windows 1. Press the message (be careful not to activate / tap on a link) 2. Choose Forward (from the menu) 3. Forward to 7726 *Reporting spam to 7726 is free. Messages forwarded to 7726 don't count toward your data or Messaging bucket iMessage Spam Reporting The key difference between an iMessage and an SMS message is the colour of the text. An iMessage text appears in a blue bubble, whereas an SMS message appears in a green bubble. If the spam text you receive appears in green, you may need to report it using the steps above. If the spam is an iMessage and comes from someone not saved in your contacts, you'll see a message stating that "the sender is not in your contact list" and you'll have the option to Report junk. Alternatively, you can send an email to [email protected] with this information: A screenshot of the message The email address or phone number that sent you the iMessage The date and time you received the spam iMessage Android Spam Reporting To report a spam message on your Android device: On your Android phone or tablet, open the Messages app Touch and hold the conversation you want to report Tap Block --> Report Spam --> OK You can also open a conversation and report it as spam.
