I have preauthorization setup on my account because koodo offer $5 credit for it. last month authorization information was changed on my account and I did not get any notification email regarding that. Scammer added a fake CC on my account and any payment attempts made to fake CC got declined and now koodo asking me for that payment, which is Im okay to pay. 

Now my concern is, why there is no 2FA on self service ? Telus has data breach no too long ago and that I pretty sure affect koodo and PM customers as well and anyone that time with either Telus, koodo or public mobile account been exposed to bad guys and now they have access to all our accounts and playing these game.

So coming back to my concern, why no MFA to get into self service ? Any payment got declined on fake CC, will it affect my credit score ? Why there is no notification comes to my cell/email if there is any change on my account ? Should I report this to CCTS or BBB ? All other wireless providers has MFA  including telus and PM, why koodo still not ? There is no phone app so can easily access the self service and live customer service I can call if there is urgency, Im try to schedule a second call with koodo but no availability till tomorrow afternoon, why ?

Hi ​@mpjassal 

From what you described, it may be that your Koodo credentials have been compromised. We recommend choosing a unique password (different from other online accounts that you own)

I don’t think password is the issue, my password is 19 random characters. Issue is why there is no MFA, if any password get compromised either from my side or koodo data get breached, our accounts opened to entire world without our authorization, that’s the whole point of having MFA in place.

Further to that, can you or someone Official rep here can share the thoughts on rest of the issues ? Since there is payment declined on my account it might hit my credit score negatively.


Payments that are posted after the bill date may afffect the credit score

Sorry boss, you are not understanding or answering  my concern. My payment was late because account got compromised because lack of Koodo security and koodo failed to capture that.

Now, all the call I made in past year or so, they have log for it, including my personal cell number, home address and all other account details.

Do you have any evidence to support your claim that the lack of MFA was the reason for your account compromise?

Just to be clear, I read your claim that your CC was changed but was it because of Koodo system or was it because of the customer?

Well, I called telus yesterday and from there I was able to get hold of 4 different CSA and all of them has no clue when and why my CC was changed on my profile. I don’t have concrete evidence and it could be either side but how koodo/telus is protecting customer data. Telus has data breach and/or my credentials could be comprised as well, but Q is pretty simple why there is no MFA. As I said before MFA is nowdays pretty common, I wish I know this before I do any business with Koodo and on top there is live customer service. SHAME !!

No one know that part yet, I have asked Koodo CSA to provide me my last 2 months of login IP address and Origin and it was to them was greek. They kept saying I have to call my bank to sort this out but last four digit of CCI saw on my account wasn’t mine so literally  they have no clue of what happens here. After spending few hours with few CSA, finally they said they are passing on my concert to fraud and prevention department and has to wait atleast week before they get me any update.
