My husband and I travelled to the States for 3 days, we were both charged roaming which is fine because we used our phones while we were there however, I have an extra $10 data charge and we have at least 3 to 4 $14.00 charges where it looks like a call was made for 1 min. From what I understood, if you have roaming on, you pay the daily fee and your regular services apply, I am not understanding all the extra charges. Hoping a koodo rep can explain.
Thanks.
Is this mainly the 10 dollar charge? You get to use your plan as normal. Did you potentially go over your data allotment? If not, I can flag a rep to look inot it.
No, we were both charged the $42 for the three days of roaming individually which is fine.
Then we got a $10 (US 1X Data Roaming charge) and under airtime we have six separate $14 charges for one minute that say ER/VC. We did not make any phone calls while in the United States
I’ll flag a rep t assist as they’ll need to for the data roaming charge. So you’re saying that these 6 charges for 1 minute were on separate days from the data usage? Easy roam charges show up as ER/VC 1 minute to initiate easy roam.
Ahh I see now...okay yes then we need to just check the extra $10/data roaming.
We were also charged almost $40 for calling New York from Niagara Falls when we were cancelling a hotel reservation, it was supposed to be a 1-800, not sure if they can do anything about that.

Hello
We verified the account and it seems like adding the Easy Roam Feature and getting the charge were very close, timewise. It is a possibility that there was a delay until the Easy roam feature took effect and for a brief moment you connected to the US and got charged for data.
We can confirm that the roaming feature was added before the charge so we can credit that $10 fee.
As for the Long distance international calls, they are valid fees and cannot be credited.
The $10 will take effect within 3-5 minutes in the overview section of the Self Serve account.
I will also include a great help page that can provide more details about roaming:
thank you.
