Phone Return Issue
On October 1 got a call from telus offering to lower my senior mom mobile bill. Needless to say she ended up with the person shipping her a new phone. She received a return label and sent the phone back through purolator. Now she has a $140 month bill. (My senior mom can't afford this!) From $23 a month. I called telus on her behalf and they have not received the phone, so they won't do anything. Is there anyway to remove those charges from her account?800 deposit when not in contract when got the phones new customer
Hi I ordered service on 10 of Sept of 4 lines . Moved from rogers to telus. Biggest mistake! 1st service is bad. Was under sky and looking for signal on London ontario . Complained them Main issue: the telus rep never stated there is a 800 $ deposit fee. When I saw the bill of 1104$ . 1st bill. I was in shock!!!. Wtf is this? I called the telus rep said. I ve sold so many and never had any issue like this . My credit score is excellent!. There is nothing in my contact stated i ve to pay the deposit fee. Nor the telus was aware of any like this. If it was. He would ve told me in advance !! The telus rep was in shock too I am in shock and disappointed!! This feels like scamming ppl! I need help to get this removed!!
data "running out" when it's not
Consistently have this problem where they claim I'm out of data for the month and then I check my usage and its like 65 Mb out of several Gbs. It's usually followed up with 'check your account balance' even though it's a prepaid plan. No point buying data if I can't use like 95% of it ever lol Customer service hangs up after a moment of silence and if you do get a representative you can't understand a word they are saying. UnfortunateUrgent: SCAM - please cancel web order TD2636615
On Aug 30, I received a call from (604)338-9379. A man claiming to be a TELUS agent offered me a "special deal" - a free iPhone 16 Pro Max with a 2-year $45 plan (100GB data). It sounded too good to be true, and I felt suspicious. He reassured me by saying I would place the order myself on the official TELUS website. When I checked, the prices on the website were different and no free iPhone. He told me I needed to complete the order first, then he could apply the offer. At the credit check step, I hesitated because of the sensitive personal details required. At that point, he gave me his name - David, agent# TD4000 and another number (825)817-2012. I called that number and reached him, which reassured me enough to continue. I completed the order, paid, and received a TELUS order confirmation email (just as David said I would). David then asked for my order number, postal code, and name, which I provided. But when he asked for even more information, I became suspicious and questioned him. He quickly ended the call, saying he would call me back in 10 minutes to confirm the offer, but he never called back. Since then, I have been extremely worried this is a scam. I immediately called TELUS at (866)488-2709, but the office was closed. I also contacted the TELUS Store in Metrotown, Burnaby BC at (604)438-8920. but they told me they cannot cancel web orders. Up to now, I still have not been able to reach TELUS successfully. I urgently need TELUS to: (1) Cancel my order (TD2636615) immediately before any device is shipped; (2) Investigate the phone numbers involved; and (3) Confirm whether my personal information and payment are secure. Thank you!
Bring-it-Back Issues
Bring it back is an extreme scam of a system. There’s no notifications about it ending, there’s no notice or flag for it ending nothing. We realized that our Bring it Back contract ended last month and tried to get a new phone today (17 days past) to be told we are past the 30 days. The charge hasn’t been added to the account yet but will appear next bill. Only option was to “trade in the phone for less then the owe amount and lose about $100” Customer service is a joke, this service is a scam.
TELUS GST Scam
TELUS has a good racket going with GST. Here is a prime example. I requested a credit for a billing issue. I was charged on my original bill, the amount of $14.00 + GST. When I received the credit, they only credited $13.33, meaning that when GST is credited to that amount, I received an additional credit of $0.67 for a total of $14.00CR. However, I originally paid $14.70 so TELUS pockets $0.70.
Technician Scam
Had a technician visit 2 weeks ago for home services and he sold me on a great sounding mobility plan, when i switched from Bell EPP. I asked explicitly if I could use my Apple Watch with this contract and if this counts towards a discount for my home services. Turns out now there is no way of using the plan with my Apple Watch, it doesn’t count towards a discount on the home service, only mentioned the $60 connection fee after already transferring the number, a rep on the phone told me that I could have signed up for an unlimited plan for less, in the end I’m basically now paying more for less and I’m screwed on the Apple Watch connection. However phone reps are not letting me out of the contract or let me change it. Good reminder to never let a rep or tech let you sell something you haven’t read the fine print on … 1 month in and already can’t wait to switch away from Telus. Anonymous, if you let techs sell stuff please make sure they actually know what their selling …
