Billing Dispute

Trying to get a hold of someone and not having a lot of luck with all the automated annoyances on this thing. This is the situation: I am still being billed after account was supposedly deactivated/disconnected. I have been living in an area where I cannot access any of Koodoo or regular mobile services since end of May. I moved from the city and have been temporarily living close to the US border to the point that I cannot even use the phone to call other than using my landline or wifi. I am only able to connect to US services, so I have kept it mostly in airplane mode. Since there is no customer service number it makes the issue even more difficult to contact and further explain. The bill should only be from the end-of-may but it keeps getting larger and larger and I am informed in an email that the value has only gotten larger and is threatening me with credit harm and other things. I don’t see how a bill that was maybe $60-80 can get to over $200, while it has been disconnected and

Connection Fee for an existing customer

I’m an existing customer before before moving to Public Mobile. Just wanted to check, if the connection fee can be waived off considering an existing customer with Public Mobile and Koodo. I lately realized the connection fee can be waived off if I do the conversion online. Thanks,Ranjith

Charged 14$ for easy roam while in Canada nowhere near the USA border

Hello, While hiking in Port Moody, BC I was randomly charged $14 for easy roam and have no idea why (wasn’t close to the USA border). Does anyone have a number available or a contact to dispute the charges and have them removed? Cheers

HOW CAN I RETURN A GIFTED TABLET?

I’ve had trouble with unexplained charges and phoned Koodo but go no satisfaction.  Recently a rep phoned and said she’d noticed I had been a longtime customer and wanted to offer me some things.  A new tablet.  More data.  LOTS more data.  I really have no NEED for a tablet (though I suppose it is an expensive item).  I really nave no NEED for more data!Now my bill comes and I have a $60 dollar connection fee.  SIXTY now!  I need to pay a connection fee on a tablet I don’t even need?What do I do??

Changing Data plans

I currently have 2 different phone numbers with Koodoo, and on one I see lots of offers to change my plan to (specifically $55 for 50g), but on my other number I do not have the same offers. Can I get the same for both?Ideally I would like the $39 for 20g for both, but I can seem to find that deal on either number. I do not want any new phones, I want to use what we have.

Can't Enable Wifi Calling and Missing Perk (Unlimited Long Distance Pack)

I used to use wifi calling on my Android Phone and my Iphone while on Freedom. Mobile. I switched to Koodo today and I just bought the iPhone 12 and I’m trying to enable wifi calling but when I do, it just returns a message saying “To allow wifi calling on this account, contact Koodo”.Also when i signed up for Koodo they advised me that I would be able to Enable Unlimited Long Distance to 28 Countries as a perk, however the park does not show up in my “Add a Perk” seciton.The only perks I see are:1. Premium Voicemail2. Rollover Data3. Unlimited International SMSNo Unlimited Long Distance Pack Perk.This was the reason why I switched over, please help.

billing question

Hello! With advice from plan advisor I switched my provider from telus to koodoo when I upgraded my cel phone/plan. I was with Koodoo for one day when my daughter (who is on the same plan with me) advised that we needed to see itch back to telus (reasons based on her other accounts with telus). So, we switched back from Koodoo to Telus and told that this was a simple change and nothing would be disrupted with account (no charges from Koodoo as we did not use the service). I then reviewed a bill from Koodoo for more than $200 and asked for full payment.  This is not a charge that I should be paying as I did not use the provider service. I do not, however, know how to address given there is t customer service to speak to. Your advice and input would be greatly appreciated.  thank you  Andrea

My daughter was charged for EasyRoam

My teenage daughter was in Japan. We switched off data roaming before she left. Somebody called her and left her a voicemail. It seems she touched the ‘voicemail’ button. This is the first time she used her phone outside Canada and she knew she could not and should not use her phone unless she had wifi. Twice I received a notification that EasyRoam was activated. I asked her why it was activated and she did not know why. I was looking at my billing while she was in Japan (I was still in Canada) and I did not see any charges, so I did not know she had accidentally checked her voicemail. You can check the data to see that it was used at most for that accidental purpose. If it’s possible to refund one or both of these charges, that would be much appreciated.

How can I figure out if I will keep my perks?

Recently, I switched from my previous plan to a reduced speed but 75 Gig plan. It included 2 perks (international minutes, which I had before and which are super important to me, but would cost another 10 bucks if I  lost them).  I am thinking of switching phones. The only one on Koodo’s website that I am half interested in (Why is the new Motorola Edge not available????) is the Samsung Galaxy 23 (although I am so done with this annoying Samsung A52). At first every attempt that I made of buying a phone on Koodo’s website with tab resulted in a ‘you can’t keep your plan with this offer’ message. Now it says I can keep my plan, but ‘you can buy perks after purchase’ … To me that sounds like I will be loosing my perks, which I consider part of my plan.(BTW the number of phones available has markedly decreased or am I seeing this wrong? Do they really want us to sign up with TELUS? Is that it?)

Amex Cobalt Not Accepted?

Hi all - a bit of a dilemma. For the past few years I’ve been on pre-authorized payments (post-paid plan) using my Amex Gold card. I’m switching to my new Amex Cobalt and for whatever reason, Koodo will not accept it. Self-serve online bounces back that “There's a problem with the credit card information you've provided. Please try again or use a different card” while *611 flat out states that the card isn’t accepted by Koodo. No idea why that’s the case as my other Amex has worked without any problems. I double checked that name and billing address matches with that on Amex’s file, and even contacted Amex who stated the card is active.Any info is much appreciated! In the meantime, I’ll try callback #2 - the first rep I spoke to transferred me to a Telus billing rep who prompted me to enter my info in their automated system, which then promptly hung up on me once I entered all my card info.

Instead of 1 ! now I'm charged  with canceling  fees and call devices and cancel tab fee and extra fees .! Took me hours to locate  a phone  , to get your koodo rep  to call me back to restore my service business lines  , I thought the other rep solved all the issues but now that I get my bill  and what a surprise !

roamig issuse

I am travelling and turned my cellular on with roaming OFF. I then got a bunch of text messages and an email saying I was roaming although roaming was off. when I go on Koodo it says “add easy roam” but then it also says I have easy roam. I do not want roaming on at all, but it won’t let me turn it off jn self serve because it says I can add it.I don’t understand how I am now being charged for roaming when I had roaming off… I am worried this will keep happening.  I can’t call Koodo, and can’t find a contact email. I am hoping to chat with someone to get this sorted as I don’t want to pay $15+ for roaming a day when I shouldn’t have been able to roam… If anyone knows how to contact Koodo without phong, or how to resolve this please  let me know!

Made a payment plan, and then Koodo took out the money anyhow.

So last night after a very difficult couple of years I finally got around to figuring out my bill payments and made a plan to get all caught up, as well as still be able to afford food for my family and everything else. Part of that plan meant making some payment arrangements wherever possible - so I logged into all my bill accounts (gas/electricity/phone/internet/etc) and was happy to see that KOODO, though somewhat unexpected, was one of the companies that was willing to offer an agreement. So, I set things up to pay 120 now, 120 in a few weeks, and then the remainder after that - bingo-bango-bongo click accept, and BAM - arrangement made (I did indeed take a screenshot of the confirmation). Feeling good about things, I decide that rather than wait the alloted couple weeks to make the first payment I can pay it now, so I do - cross off $120 of what’s owed and YAY, good times ahead right? Well, today when going to buy groceries I suddenly find that I am unable to purchase what I was g

Registration not working

Hi! I’m new with Koodo, switched over from Telus. I have been prompted to sign up for self serve. Every single time I have tried to do this over the past week, the live chat stops responding after my postal code. I am super frustrated and wondering if anyone can help. At this point I have been unable to access the livechat at all.

received promo via text: how do I check the conditions before accepting it?

Hi all. I’m a pre-paid customer and I received a text offering 12GB per month for $30 on a post-pay plan. I was given a promo code too. But then I saw the dreaded “Conditions apply”. I can figure out how to activate the new plan, but I can’t see the conditions. It looks like I’d have to activate the plan BEFORE I can see the conditions. The plan is not listed as a standard plan.

Rep Feedback - Salvador

I wanted to rate a rep that I spoke to recently but that rep was the second one I spoke to that day as the first rep transferred me to him.Since I was transferred and did not speak to him initially the text message I received to rate my experience with the rep for that call was the first rep I spoke to who could not help me and transferred me. So I wanted to send a quick feedback for him as he definitely deserves recognition for his work. I spoke to a Salvador on the 9th of August at around 9:05pm or so.  I wanted to rate him a 5/5 across the board. He was very helpful, kind, personable, attentive, sensitive, and overall had a good attitude. I enjoyed my call with him and as someone who has worked customer support I can tell that he is an amazing fit for the job. He genuinely seemed like he enjoyed helping me out and our conversation.Please make sure this gets to him. Thank you.
