41 TopicsOvercharged Scam from Telus
What is happening? Sometimes, when we were told to join you guys then you guys say that even if we connect our credit or debit card the pre-authorization payment will be activated and the discount of $10 will be applied but now after using the Telus network for 3-4 months, now you guys tell me that card is not accepted and we should connect our bank to activate pre-authorization payment and get that discount. This is really not happening, I have recorded everything when I switched to the Telus network. I even have recorded voice call that I was with the agent when I was joining Telus Network. This is really kind of disappointing to the new customers, in any way you guys are charging me more than the amount that you promised me to charge. If this is the case then I and my partner were already happy with Fido. Sorry to say but we feel like we are scammed by Telus. This is not done guys. We are paying $20 more again. As a working and struggling in this heavy rising prices in the country how can we pay more and more everytime than the promised charge when joining the Telus network. Please fix this, this is not done.21Views0likes1CommentBilling Issues
We know Telus's customer getting worse on the contrary of the increase of the internet and home security service charge. Telus increased more than $6 on the internet service charge and the Home security service although we are not using the Home security service at all. Telus removed the 6 month $5 discount on the internet bundle. Last time the Telus teller asked me to call again to get the temporary prmotional discount after 6 month. I talked a tell, but she was saying she can't give the discount. Also the Home security contact was 36 month, but Telus changed the contract to 24 month and increased the charge upto $3 more without my agreement. I am really moving to Rogers at the end of this contract. So I started to change my email account to Google. My request ;1. additional 6 month $5 discount on the internet service 2. Restore my Home security contract to the original contract. Also the customer service connectivity is so bad.94Views0likes3CommentsPossible scam?
Hello, I recieved a call from 1-844-368-7379 regarding a special offer since I just signed up on home services my account being installed on April 1, 2026. The offer they offered was my home internet would go down to $50/mo with $150 bill credit from $68/mo if I switch my 2 phones lines from Rogers. The offer for mobile was $35/mo each for 2 lines so $70/mo with 100gb date each line. Just wondering how can we verify this was a legit caller and offer?74Views0likes1CommentBill Dispute Form Not Working
When calling in for business mobility support to dispute $1200 in erroneous charges I am only able to receive a texted form, and AI bot told me I could not speak to human. Well the form doesn’t work! The error states, “We’re having trouble creating a support request at the moment. Please try again later.” And yes, I did try later and received same response. Is there a direct phone number for a human?65Views0likes3CommentsUnauthorized 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.38Views0likes1CommentBilling Issues
I ended my Telus services and account last June. But I received an email from a debt collections agency that I owe an outstanding charge on my account. I never received a bill from Telus with the amount the debt collection agency stated, and I payed the last bill I had from Telus in full before the account was canceled. If there was an actual charge left outstanding on my account why was I not notified? and if not, why did I get sent to a debt collections agency if I did not have an outstanding charge? I am very disappointed in the service quality of Telus, I shouldn't have my canceled account information sent to a collections agency without my notice of a bill.122Views1like6CommentsAbusive and Unprofessional Conduct
As a Senior who recently had a heart attack and am currently trying to recover, I was astounded to be called <names> 3 times during a conversation with one of your representatives. Telus charged $340 to my account for a Bring It Back device that was returned in good condition on October 14, 2025 and for which I was explicitly promised a $340 credit. I have written confirmation of this assurance in an email from Telus which was sent on October 16, 2025 after my phone was assessed. Despite this, the credit was not applied and the amount was instead treated as an outstanding balance. For a month & a half I have been trying to rectify this situation, having made 11 attempts. However, I have been told 3 different excuses for the charge. First, I was told that the phone was not received by Telus until I sent the proof of delivery notice from Purolator. Second, I was told that I had chosen to keep the phone. Again I provided proof that the phone had been returned and today I was told by an executive that my phone was too badly damaged. I know this to be untrue because I personally took my phone to the Uxbridge Telus store on October 12, 2025 & had them inspect the phone. My friend who is a lawyer was with me & can attest to this.148Views0likes3CommentsMobility Account Issues
On January 27th I received a promotional email from Telus for more data on a 5G postpaid plan, and a Pixel 10 on a 2 year payment plan. On January 31st I called Telus to inquire about whether I qualified or was eligible for the promotion and I was told yes I was. So while on the phone with that same person we began switching my provider to Telus. 4 days later after having been through the following (1) No cell service for over 3 days, and needing to find alternatives to legal and personal texts. (2) No follow up email after getting disconnected during the set up call. (3) Still not able to receive emails from Telus at either my Protonmail or Gmail, and talking to technical support about it yielding no solution. (4) Being told to wait longer for service when that wasn't the issue at all. It was an Esim issue on Telus's end. (5) Hours spent on the phone. Needing someone to babysit my 1 year old so I can get service. I understand that is not all Telus's fault, but when I just so happened to off-handedly mention my rate to a representative two days ago (because I can't seem to yet register for MyTelus), I was told I was paying more than the promotion indicated, and man that draws the line. I'm livid. After all of that and a week later, I get told that the promotion only lasted 1 day and now I don't qualify. The only reason I went through all that was because Telus sent me an email, I didn't go looking for some better deal, and I asked explicitly multiple times on the first call whether I qualified, and I was told yes. I even reiterated details of the deal. That's the only reason I switched. To experience this kind of dishonesty and deception and lack of integrity.. I don't know if I've ever been so angry and mistrusting of a business before. I don't even understand why pay a marketing department to piss people off. The whole point is to attract me as a customer with that deal. I'm baffled as much as I am upset. This is unacceptable.57Views0likes1Comment
