I am writing to express my concern regarding a recent increase in charges on my Telus bill ( 28 March 2025, 28 April 2025). I noticed that the total amount for this billing period is higher than usual (Usually 42 cad But from March it has gone up to 47 without any reasons), and I have not made any changes to my plan or services that would justify this increase.
Could you please provide a detailed check on change in pricing? I am not aware of any change in my plan or rates, I would appreciate receiving help from BBB to stop Telus billing department to Impost such charges without any prior notice and information..
On Text Chat with Customer Care the response was not satisfactory . I had a 3 year fixed Contract for the services. In which they never marked about increasing the price as such.

Once again Telus contacted me despite my objections and insistence that they have no further interaction. Furthermore they could not promise their door-to-door solicitors could abide by any protest I've made to no longer be contacted by this company. ** **** ***** ** *** ******* ********** *** *** **** *********** **** * ***** ******** **** ***** ** ** ***** *******Business Response

Subject: Ongoing Charges After Account Cancellation with Telus
Dear Better Business Bureau,
I am writing to file a complaint regarding Telus Communications. I cancelled my plan with Telus around May 2024. During the cancellation process, I spoke with multiple representatives over the phone. While they made several efforts to retain me as a customer by offering alternative plans and deals, I clearly and repeatedly stated that I wished to close my account entirely.
Despite this, I recently reviewed my credit report and discovered that Telus is still charging me, and the account appears to remain open. This is both unexpected and unacceptable, as I had clearly communicated my intent to terminate the service.
I would appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter and ensuring that Telus corrects the status of the account and reverses any unwarranted charges.
Thank you for your time and support.Business Response

Good afternoon,
We have attempted to resolve the client's issue and offered what we believe to be a reasonable resolution; however, it was rejected. Unfortunately, the client's current request goes against our company policy, which is clearly outlined in the service agreement she signed. Therefore, we are unable to take any further action on this matter on behalf of Telus.

I am filing a complaint against Telus Communications for engaging in ********** sales tactics, withholding of material information, and refusing to provide a fair resolution despite multiple escalations.
I told the Telus rep I didn’t need additional phones, but they were pushed on me under the assurance that it would cost just $1/month. Only after attempting to cancel the service — due to months of ongoing network and call issues — was I told that I must pay over $2,000 to cancel, including the full price of those same devices. I was never told this during the sales process.
Since starting with Telus, I have experienced dropped calls, missed calls going straight to voicemail, unreliable 5G, and constant data disruptions — *** ***** ********* ** ********.
I escalated to the Office of the President, where the only offer I received was 25% off the device costs. This is unacceptable.
I am requesting that Telus:
Cancel my contract without charging for the devices
Honor the $1/month cancellation fee originally promised
Allow me to move my number to another provider immediately
***** ***** *** ******* ********* **** ****** *********** ******** *********** ******* *** ********* ****. I would like BBB’s assistance in getting this resolved.Business Response

Complaint: ********
Thank you for your response and for acknowledging my concerns. I appreciate your willingness to review the situation and offer a 50% reduction on the outstanding device balance.However, as mentioned throughout this process — and again for clarity — I was very clear at the time of signing up that I did not want any additional devices. Despite this, I was still convinced to take them after being told that they would only cost $1/month, which heavily influenced my decision to accept them. At no point was I told that I would be liable for the full device cost if I chose to cancel services early.
Given the circumstances and the fact that I never intended to use these devices, I believe a more reasonable solution is the following:
I am willing to return one of the devices, which is still sealed and unused in the original box, in lieu of paying the remaining balance.
In return, I request that any remaining cancellation/device balance be fully waived, and I be allowed to port my number to another provider without additional penalty.
I feel this is a fair and balanced resolution that respects both the spirit of the original offer made by your sales team and the dissatisfaction I’ve experienced with the service since.
Please let me know if Telus is able to accept this counter-offer so I can proceed accordingly.Thank you again for your time and attention to this matter.

On Thursday, April 10, I received an email from ****, my internet provider, informing me that they had received my request to cancel my services. Initially, I thought this was spam since it was in my junk folder. However, on Friday, I woke up to find that I had no WiFi at home. Upon contacting ****, I was informed that Telus had submitted a form indicating that I was switching providers. I NEVER DID THIS.
Telus used my personal information, which they had saved from a previous request back in November 2024 (I was also their cellphone user for four years), to *********** me and submit this form. Despite ignoring dozens of spam calls and paper deals in my mail from Telus, they found an "easier" way to switch my provider by canceling on my behalf. **** *** ** *** **** ************* *** **** *****. **** *** ** ***** ** *** ** ** ****** ** ** ****** ** ******** ************ ********* ** ******** ******* ******.
I demand that Telus eliminate any trace of my information from their system. * **** ***** **** ****** ******* **** *** ****** **** ******. If I hadn't checked my spam folder, I would have been unaware of what had transpired, as Telus did not send a "welcome email" until I informed them that I had filed a police report on Friday, April 11. The police are aware of this situation, but Telus must be held accountable and remove any charges from the "ghost account" they created, as I do not possess a Telus modem. Telus is excusing themselves by claiming it was a system error, but a system does not fill out a form and send it to my provider telling them I gave them permission to do so.
Telus sent out this request to **** on April 7 with cancellation day starting on April 10.

Good morning,
* ******** **** ******* ********* ***** *** ******** ** **** *********
Last time I checked, their system showed that I had a balance of $80 or so (I don’t exactly remember the amount) for home internet when I don’t even have a Telus modem.
Nevertheless, I just checked “my account” a few minutes ago, and it shows $0; which makes me believe they have finally realised their mistake and cancelled my account.

I’ve since gotten repeated sales calls (**** ***** **********) for a new mobility service. I have spoken to managers and told them I do not want the mobility service, I am happy with what I have.

At the end of march I called to make a payment arrangement for the third time in 3 months due to Telus not holding up the agreement with payment dates and today April 10th I called as my services were suspended and last time I spoke with customer services a agreement was made to pay 150 when I called and I did and the remaining to get paid on the 17th when I get paid and pay all my bills, when I called today on the 10th of April I was told that I got suspended due to a overdue balance which would not be correct if they held up there agreement to be set on the 17th and was told if I want to continue the call and work out the problem I would have to pay them 135$ to get help and to keep the original payment agreement of the 17th cause there records state the 3rd of April for the agreement on file. Now I have tried to resolve it and speak to a “manager” about the issue but all that happened was the same response and no explanation as to why this would be the 3rd agreement not held up and set for the wrong dates. I would have no problem paying them if the dates lined up when I get paid and resolved easier.

I was told that it was my problem and that I should have logged into the site on a desktop to view my bill.

There was no email notification of a bill, a late bill, or a request for payment. *** **** **** *** ***** ***** * ******* ****** ** ***** **** * ******* **** ******** ******** **** **** ** ****** **********.
