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.
Bug in Credit Check Webform
Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this, but I can't find support for Telus' website or app. I can't add a mobile service to my cart. During the "Verifying details with a credit check" step, I get an error saying my BC driver's license number is invalid. See screenshot. I tried different family members’ BC driver’s licence numbers and none pass validation. It appears to be a bug in the web form.
Stream+ selfserve gone - mytelus deleted by CS
I am experiencing an unusual situation and I am unable to get support;was on phone for 1.5 hrs and they couldn't help me. sequence of events: - in Oct 24 I signed up for stream+ and added to myTelus profile, everything worked fine and self-serve was visible when logging in to my account. This was charged to my cc monthly; a standalone service. - Yesterday when trying to update account manager and members I accidentally locked myself out of self serve functions on account by setting myself as member - contact CS on chat; informed he could only fix by deleting mytelus profile and starting new one. CS agent deleted my old mytelus profile and started a new one. received onboarding email, created password and regained access to mobility self serve. - Later on I noticed the original stream+ service was no longer visible; not re-linked to new mytelus profile, became entirely inaccessible. This means can no longer update payment, cancel etc- this is a self-serve only service. - noticed I could start a new stream+ on the new mytelus account - better EPP rate which I did, now am being billed twice, once for original stream+ which I and CS can't access on the back end (spent 1.5 hrs on phone with them), and new account which I want to keep. - need is to either link the old stream+ subscription to new mytelus profile with different email address so I can cancel it myself, or I need Telus to cancel it so I stop getting charged monthly on my visa. old emails from original stream+ have no identifiers other than email which isn't useful as original mytelus profile was wiped from system and new mytelus profile initiated with the same email address. I am able to see transaction numbers on credit card statement for old service which may be useful to find old subscription Either has to be resolved by Telus, or only option input a chargeback, change visa number - really not beneficial to either party
Can't complete upgrade to new phone
Telus app and telus website will not process the phone and phone plan I am trying to purchase. Both the telus website and telus app I get stuck at infinite loading screen at "Payment details Check that your billing address matches your card's address." Will not process. I confirmed my bank address matches my billing address, updated my credit card by deleting and re-adding, and my billing address is current on all accounts. I called telus and they could not help me but offer me the same plan and phone for way more than the offer I have available. past that point.
