poor customer service
25 TopicsUnauthorized Google Play Charges on Watch Account
I have received google play charges for a transaction on my Telus watch account. I have not done this transaction. There is no history of any such transaction on the google play account nor is there any active or inactive subscription to support this transaction. Basically this transaction does not exist. Telus customer care directed me to Google to ask for a refund. Google support page Https://payments.google.com/payments/u/0/unauthorizedtransactions requires a correlation id to dispute such transactions that do no appear in history. Their page clearly states carrier will provide this id and that this is a required field for raising such a dispute. Telus is now shying away form their responsibility and nopt providing me this correlation id. When the seller (Google Play) shows no transaction and the buyer (myself) says there is no transaction how can the middleman the payment gateway (Telus ) charge me for any thing. If they do, they need to provide a proof of the incident in correlation id. It is impossible that they do not have this Id. Online forums show this is not an isolated incident and hundreds of other customers have reported such fraudulent charges on their watch account. In each case they have demanded the correlation id. Here is the catch many customers have stated that customer care has provide this correlation id to them. So Telus indeed has this id but the customer care agents are too lazy to search for it or have no knowledge that such a thing exists. Telus is looting its customers with fraudulent charges and refuses to do anything about it.24Views0likes1CommentHome Security Scam
Recently my girlfriend’s mom had a Telus representative sell them a Doorbell home security system. The representative stated the price for the system was $90 but later was charged $200. Talked to multiple different people and nobody has resolved this representative scam.53Views0likes1CommentFiber issues and business down
We have changed a firewall and spent 2 days with Telus to get it operational. We were working than a few hours later go offline. Was told it was resolved last night. Today we are down again, no internet, emails, business connect voip phones etc. Called telus support and they advise it is a hardware issue at their end and a tech can get to it Tuesday. Is this common and what restitution is there when I have to shut my office down for two work days to wait for a tech to fix their issue?44Views0likes5CommentsHome Security renewed without agreeing to new terms.
Hello, My Telus home security was up for renewal and I was given a code on my bill to renew. I received an email with nothing except “your order is complete” and now I’m supposedly locked into a contract with a higher price and agreement. I was never given the opportunity to review the new price or new agreement. Nothing was sent to me.87Views0likes1CommentBusiness phone over fibre not working - need re-programming help!
Hi, I'm hoping a community manager sees this and can help me out. My business uses Telus over fibre for our business phone. It has not been working all day (both incoming and outgoing) and when I called tech support they told me that from their end, it also shows the line is not working and that the programming is completely missing. I asked them if they could please reset the programming but the tech support said they are unable to do it from their end and need someone from the back end to do it. Unfortunately they cannot give me an ETA on how long this will take but said it's typical to take up to 24 hours. Can a community manager please help me escalate this issue? It is severely impacting my business especially it being the end of year which is my busiest time, I have a case number if that helps. Thank you!35Views0likes0CommentsCan 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.78Views0likes1CommentRenewed 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.121Views0likes1CommentVery 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.99Views0likes3CommentsVery 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.327Views0likes4CommentsBusiness Line Support Process Frustrations
I've seen through the forums that many of us have the same problem. 1 - We experience an issue with our telus business line so we go to the technical support page. We spend time to explain our problem and then submit the ticket, we then experience the first problem. It also wipes our forms so if we didn't save our information, we lose it all. 2 - We go to the chat to explain our problem to the AI. The AI is confused and doesn't understand the issue, when we also explain that the problem is we can't log a support ticket. It gets more confused. 3 - We finally admit to ourselves we have to call the Telus Business Support Line. We experience the AI problem again, in circles it goes - if it mishears you - it goes on a tangent about changing plans. You need to call back, speak with purpose and when it understands you need technical support - it begins its troubleshooting. NOW thats a nightmare. Especially if you're a engineer. 4 - The final boss. You get put into the Telus support queue finally. The IVR then lets you know, there is over an hour to wait. No option for callbacks, just wait and then sprinkled within the IVR is letting you know about upgrades. If I knew this was the level of support I would be getting on a business line. I would have just opted for a consumer line, I truly regret the decision to move to Telus 3 years ago and when the contract comes up for renewal - I'll be moving unless something changes.101Views1like2Comments
