TELUS Mobility Vacation Suspension What is a vacation suspension? A vacation suspension allows you to temporarily pause your mobility services and pay a reduced rate while you're away. Am I eligible for vacation suspension? All customers on a monthly plan can request a vacation suspension. If you have an active service agreement, your contract dates will not be affected by using our vacation suspension. How long can I put my service on vacation suspension? You can put your plan on hold for a minimum of one month and up to a maximum of six months, once per year. Is there a charge? While on vacation suspension, your plan cost will be reduced to $30 per month, plus any TELUS Easy Payment® amount(s) for your device(s), if applicable. For wireless Wi-Fi devices such as Smart Hub, portable internet hubs, and mobile internet keys, your plan cost will be reduced to $10 per month. How to suspend service?
