      Dear Better Business Bureau,

      I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the customer service provided by TELUS, an issue that has caused me significant distress and financial repercussions.

      Recently, my wallet was stolen, resulting in the compromise of all my accounts. This situation was reported to the authorities, causing immense stress as I lost not only all my identification documents but also a considerable amount of money. Unfortunately, amidst this chaos, I inadvertently missed a pre-authorized credit card payment set up for my TELUS mobile service.

      Despite my over two years of loyal association with TELUS and the extenuating circumstances surrounding the missed payment due to the theft incident, I received no resolution or understanding from their customer service team. To my shock, TELUS reported this missed payment to the credit agency, resulting in a loss of over 100 points on my credit score.

      I want to emphasize that I have always been diligent with my payments and have promptly cleared the outstanding amount owed to TELUS. However, their lack of empathy and failure to assist me during this distressing time has been deeply disappointing. Their actions have unfairly impacted my credit score, something that I've diligently maintained.

      I implore your assistance in escalating this matter to TELUS and ensuring that they rectify the damage caused to my credit score. My intention was never to neglect payment, and I have already taken steps to clear the overdue amount owed to TELUS.

      I kindly request your intervention to help resolve this situation and seek appropriate compensation for the unjustifiable damage caused to my credit history. Your attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated.

      Thank you for your prompt assistance in this urgent matter.

      Sincerely,
      ***** ***** ************

      Dear BBB,

      Thank you for bringing ***** ******* concern to our attention. This correspondence is intended to address and resolve this issue.

      The customer wanted to
      fix his credit report due to 2 late payments being report, I explained to
      the customer that unfortunately we did notify him via email about the late
      payment, considering the reporting was factual we would not be able to have any
      corrective measures applied to the credit bureau, the customer can however
      communicate with the credit bureau and ask to join a narrative report to
      explain the situation and exceptional circumstances and cause for the late
      payments. 

      I also offered a
      goodwill credit of 50$ to the customer as a token for the situation and his
      trouble.
      The case is now
      resolved. 

      Thank you

      This seems to be the issue every time I try to call Telus. I am now emailing to complain as no one can help me via phone..

      Dear BBB Administrator,

      Thank you for bringing this customer's concern to our attention. This correspondence is intended to address this issue.


      The client originally had the account under her name. She stated that she requested the account to be transferred into another individual's name in February 2022. However, the transfer was not completed successfully, and the account remained under the client's name. Over the year, multiple emails and text messages were sent to the client, notifying them of the outstanding balance on the account. Unfortunately, due to non-payment, the account was eventually canceled and subsequently sent to a collection agent. Based on the accurate reporting of these events, a credit bureau amendment is not warranted and the client remains responsible for the charges.


      Sincerely,
      TELUS Resolution Team

      I am rejecting this response because: this is not true. I asked the Telus rep to cancel the account once she said **** was successfully changed on the account she cancelled it. It may have been behind on payments but that was not my responsibility as it was supposed to be under ****’s name and not mine.

      I have active accounts with Telus and this never should have happened to begin with. *** ** ****** ** ****** *** ** *****

      So we were without service the entire day. Not data, no text, no service just SOS. I contacted Telus to be on chat with a virtual assistant. The virtual assistant kept offering a call back. Which I found so frustrating because I had no service how was I suppose to take a call back. It was a non productive day as I had no service. The company did not even offer compensation, no acknowledgement of how this could have affected the customer they serve.

      Dear BBB, 

      Thank you for bringing this clients concern to our attention. 

      The clients issue was caused because of a port in request. TELUS did not cause any interruption of his service. 

      Also, TELUS does not offer any compensation. 

      The port in was completed on 10-31-2023 and the client has full use of the service.

They are being ********* and obviously if they checked on their repair dates they would know I speak the truth about the service disruption.

      I am rejecting this response because: I work storing the day and cannot receive calls at work and Telus had called me 3 times yes but during school hours. I would like to be credited for my service for the entire day in my 3 devices. Now a days most people do not have home phones and this put us in an u safe situation with no phones. It is not a lot to ask for.

      Thank
      you for bringing ****** ************ concern to our attention. This
      correspondence is intended to update you on this matter.

       We have tried contacting the client multiple times with no success. The client is requesting we provide her with a credit for 3 days worth of service as she experienced an outage. The clients base rate for the plan is $160 per month plus tax. 3 days worth of service would amount to $16 plus tax for a total of $18.08. We have made an exception to provide a credit of $50 to the client's account. The account can see this by logging into her online account. This a onetime exception and a gesture of goodwill. As per the service terns, TELUS is not able to guarantee service availability and compensation is not provided. If the client needs further assistance at this point. She is able to call customer service at1-866-558-2273.

      I signed up with Telus after being contacted by ******** on august 13. I ported 2 Numbers where was promised bill credits and my first bill to be $40 with all the credits. I got a credit alert from ******* which advised Telus did a credit check which surprised me as I never consented to one but what mostly caught my attention is that I owed $160 to Telus. I reached out to the account manager (********) but to no avail until I ported out to **** as they gave me a better plan. ******** reached out to me to ask why I ported out, I told him it was because I did not receive the promised an amount. I asked ******** what would be the last bill and how can I pay it, ******** informed me I will get an email final bill with all the corrections. I lost my access to the Telus app and was not longer able to log in since I ported out before the first billing cycle and relied on what the agent told me. A few days ago I noticed a credit bureau alert and when I checked Telus marked I missed a payment even though I never got a bill no first or last bill which the agent told me I would get and I did receive an email when I closed the account advising I will get a final bill. I contacted Telus and had to escalate to ********* **** who provided me with a $120 credit and told me that she will attempt to send a request to get a credit bureau amendment. Case # ********, acct # ********. It got escalated to ***** ******* who said bills are not mandatory and they are a courtesy and that even though I contacted Telus numerous times and was provided the wrong information it was my fault and that he will send a credit bureau amendment request but he can guarantee it will declined. ***** was extremely rude and even told me to go to the better business bureau, ccts and crtc and it won’t change anything and told me in a *********** way if I doesn’t pay the remainder of the bill it will further affect the bill. I paid the bill and request that they amend the credit bureau which they declined to do.

      Dear BBB, 

      Thank you for bringing this clients concern to our attention. 

      We have submitted a request to remove the TELUS Mobility tradeline from the clients credit report, which can take up to 30 days before its updated. 

      In regards to the credit check, unfortunately, the client accepted it by agreeing on the customer service agreement, therefore, cannot be removed.

      Friday October 20th:
      Around 3pm I went to Telus Koodoo on ********* *****. The person there looked up my account and told me I had ********* insurance (not telus/*******) and to go to ****** ***** to get my phone fixed.
      I went to ***** ***** and they told me to make an appointment and go to the ***** *****.
      Went home, made the ***** apt, drove to a different city to go to the nearest ***** store waited for 1.5 hours to be told I don’t have ***** care and to go back to Telus.
      I went to Telus Koodoo in the mall, they told me I HAVE TELUS INSURANCE NOT ********* and to go back to ****** *****, which is now closed.

      Saturday October 21st:
      Around 10am I go to ****** *****. They tell me I have to submit an insurance request online before it can be repaired under insurance.
      I go home and submit a request.
      I drive to a relatives home in a different city so I can use a phone. I call *******. I am told my claim will be processed within 24 hrs. I asked “do you work Sundays” she said yes and for sure I will get a response by 10am Sunday.

      Sunday October 22nd:
      ******* is closed on Sundays. Telus business support is also closed on Sundays. THIS IS NOT WHAT I WAS TOLD BY *******.
      I drive to ****** *****, at this point I have lost 3 days worth of income, as weekends are the busiest for my small business. I am prepared to just pay out of pocket to get my phone because this has been an absolutely ridiculous process.
      The person at ****** ***** tells me he doesn’t know how to repair ******* and to come back on Monday because someone will be there who does.

      If I had known this is what it would be like with Telus/******* I most definitely would not be paying for this service. I have been a business customer for 6 years, and I also pay for Telus internet. I always pay my bills on time and have been a very loyal Telus customer. I need this to be resolved as soon as possible. This is terrible practice for a company that preaches how they help small businesses.

      Customer was contacted on October 31st regarding difficulty placing a repair through what client assumed was ***** care. Confirmation of extended warranty from TELUS was DCC. In this case client did not want this warranty and requesting to have the feature removed. Removal of feature and credit applied to account from time contract date. Total credit provided $60.

      Hi there,

      This complaint concerns my line, ###-###-#### ( Account *******), under my account in the name of ****** **** (my wife).

      * **** **** * ****** ** ***** ******** ***** **** *** ***** *** ****** **** ***** * ***** ********* ** **** * **** ****** Also, I have trusted Telus with my **** Credit Card for monthly payments. The issue is that my Credit Card expired, and I was never notified that I needed to update the website. Because of that, two bill payments didn't go through, and that destroyed my Credit Score, which went from 849 to 735 due to a debt of $102.00.

      Telus claims they send text notifications to the line ###-###-####, but I checked the phone with my wife and confirmed that she only got a text notification today, two months after the late payment. The other texts she got from Telus were about data usage and did not mention the Credit Card expiry date. Coincidently, I also got an email from Telus today, or two months too late, advising me of the late payment.

      Telus always sends me spam emails and texts and makes unsolicited phone calls but fails to advise me about the Credit Card expiration date. ** **** ******* ****** * ** ***** ** ******** * *** **** *** *** ****** **** * **** ********* *** **** ***** ** ******* ************ ******* ** ********* ** ******* ** *** *******  I made a $156.63 payment to Telus regarding the two months of "past due" bills and the one coming up soon using Online Banking yesterday, Oct 17th, when I found out the bill payments weren't processed.

      Thank you for bringing this clients concern to our attention. 

      We have communicated with the client and advised the validity of the late credit reporting. The clients credit card expired July 2023 and did not change it in time. 

      We sent out sms notifications on July 1st, July 15th and July 26th. We also sent out e-bill notification by sms to remind of bill payments.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because: Telus claims to have sent three
      texts to my wife's number, ###-###-####, advising of the late payment,
      but she says she did not get any. We checked her phone together and only
      saw notifications about data usage. ****** ***** **** * ** *** ****** ************** ** ********** *** ********* ** * **** **** * ****** **** **** *** *** ***** ******* * ****** **** ******** ****** *** **** ** ****** **** ********** **** *** *** **** ******** ********** ***** **** * **** ************** *** ** ********* *********** ** **** ** ****** ***** *** *** ***** ***** ********* *** 

      As
      the account owner, I never got an email notification to let me know
      about the problem, except on Oct 18th, when I had already missed two
      payments and was about to miss the third. Had Telus sent me an email 15
      or even 30 days after I had missed the first payment, I would have immediately
      jumped on it to fix it. *** *** ***** *********** **** **** ****** *** ***** *** ***** *********** ***** ***** ** **** *** ******** *** ****** **** ********* ************ ****** ** *** ********

      ** ** **** **** **** Telus and any other Telecommunication company should
      ** ******** ** send automated email notifications - NOT text messages -
      related to Credit Card expiration dates and late payments before it can
      negatively affect their clients' Credit Rates. ********** ** ******* ********* *** **** ******* *** *** ** ****** ************ ********** ** ***** ************ **** ******** *** ******** ************* ******* **** ** ****** **** ******* ***. The fact is that automated email
      notification is common to most businesses that provide their clients
      with pre-authorized payment options. This measure should not be
      considered a negative point against their clients or imply they don't
      take responsibility for their finances. *** **** ** **** ****** *** *** ***** ** *** ** **** **** * *** * *** *** * *** ****** ****  ** ***** * ********* ****** ** ***** **** *** *** ******** ***** These corporations
      also have the option to utilise an Automated Updater Service that takes
      care of automatically updating Credit Card expiration dates for their
      clients. In fact, three of my accounts were updated in that manner.

      As I explained before I reject this response because, as the owner of the account, I never received any notification about my **** expiration date. The only email I received from Telus was after the payment was missed twice. Any SMS sent went to the phone in possession of my wife - ###-###-#### - none was directed to my phone number - ###-###-####. If nothing else can be done, please close the complaint with a note that I reject the response because of the facts I stated above.

      Thank you.

      I have spoken to Telus multiple times informing them of my medical and financial situation and listlessly like nothing was done to really help me. * ****** ******** **** ** ** ******** *** **** * *** **** ****** *** **** ** **** ** *** *********** ** ****** *** *** ***** *** ************* *********. I can no longer afford to pay the $1000 of dollars they were asking for. At the same time I was trying to return a tablet my son had which we couldn’t use because none of the apps worked properly and the way I got it still seemed sketchy the line wasn’t clear and I thought it was a scammer telling me I’m getting a free tablet like sure go ahead and send it. Anyways we got it but it didn’t even work properly and a request was made to return it within 30 days. And they never sent the return label in the mail. I call again to see what up and since it’s past 30days they won’t send it again and oh whoops it was sent my email not mail. Like seriously? Anywho as my financial situation decreases I look to get a better deal. The internet provider I’m with offered me that and Telus couldn’t do that for me. I explained to them my situation and sadly that I will go with ****. This was all on the phone and none of them told me I had to pay off the whole phone right away and that I can’t return the phone if I did this. If someone had been honest with me I would honestly weighed my options. **** ** **** ** ****** ****** ****** ******** *** * *** ********* ** ******** ****** ** ** **** *** * ******** ** ********** ******* *** ***** ** ******* ***** and trying to pay all these people off and Telus so unreasonable they’re asking me to pay $1000+ within 30days or it goes to collections. **** **** ******* ** ** ******* ***** ******* * **** **** ** ***** *** **** ***** ***** **** ******* *** **** ****** ***** ***** **** **** **** **** ******** ** ***** * **** ***** ********* ** ** ******* ** * ***** ***** *** **** ******* ***** ** *** *** *** ****** **** ***** **** ***** **** *** **** ****

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because: Telus has not actually offered me any effective care on their part. When covid  came along they were so happy to help. But they only cared to continue enlarge their pockets. **** **** ******** ** ** ******* ********* *** ************ ** *** *** **** ******* ****** ** ***** Which they were aware was not possible for me. No appropriate solution was given to my situation. No advisement of account closure was provided to me either. No call, no mail. Nothing. I want the late payments expunged the collections amounts removed. Telus knew what I was going through and failed to provide the care they offered so many. **** ** *** **** ***** *** **** *** ***** *** ** **** ****** ***
       

      Sincerely,

      October, 5th 2023
      Amount paid to ****** ******** ****  ( Telus)
      $372.20
      I went in to purchase two new phone plans and was charged extra fees.
      I bought two phone case protectors
      One at $65.00 and another one at
      $35.00. Two glass protectors are $30.00 each.
      So my Bill came to $372.20 minus the $160.00 for the phone cases and screen protectors. Which means I got charged an extra $212.20. I have no idea what I have been charged and they won't disclose any information. They kept saying that their system was new and acting up. I phoned the Telus support line and asked if they maybe charge me for a connection fee of $120.00. But the tech told me that if they did charge the connection fee it would have been noted in my file. Also in the agreement form, it says the the connection fee would appear on my next bill. That being said if they did charge me a connection fee of $120.00, I still have a $92.00 charge. Also, I will be charged another $120.00 connection fee when my bill comes, being that it was never noted. I have been with Telus for many many years and I feel so taken advantage of. I don't make a good income like I once did so my money is very tight and to be shorted an extra 200 plus is very hard on me.
