Picture Message charges

I have a basic plan for my daughter that provides 100 Canada-wide minutes, 250MB shock free data and unlimited (text) messaging.She primarily only uses her phone while on Wifi, but will sometimes use it while at a friends, walking to/from school or out and about.When I first setup the phone we were having issues with her data being used very quickly for messaging while away from home (the rep was fantastic and explained iMessage, photos, etc is not included in basic texting so it was using data).  To rectify this, we increased her data to 5GB.  She rarely even uses much data at all, but I looked back at billings and noticed this month and 2 months ago there were charges incurred for “picture messaging”.  I called and spoke to a rep, who informed me that using the phone away from wifi, will incur picture charges if “stickers”, pictures, etc are being used because her plan is only for (text) messaging.  I asked why the data would not be used to cover this, as that was the entire point of

How do I get pics w/ msg, and cancel Koodo?

I tried to get a human after a hours of loging in to every section Koodo could think up. I did finally get a callback, BUT, the agent said “Please may I have...” and went silent.I went through all the hoops again THREE times hour after hour and still no one calls back. Maybe Koodo  needs to get a good mobile carrier.Adding insult to injury, the Artificial I(no where near intelligent, not even close) that insist I have to log in to log in, using my landline locally, and calling my digital phone (DP) is long distance. Calling my wife on her Koodo account is long distance. WTH, she is sitting right bedside me and the phone never goes anywhere anyway.QUESTIONSWhy does Koodo keep suggesting I talk to a human, and I book the appointment, and I Koodo fail to call back 3 out of 4 times. Are we as victims allowed only one call-back and that’s it?  Just one agent that can’t stay connected and after that, it’s pound sand? QUESTION: Is there a quick way of reaching a human by xcalling them and not

I changed my number through koodo self serve in July 3rd, but it still have not updated on my actual phone.

My koodo account already changed my phone number in their system, but my actual phone still has my old phone number. I tried restarting my phone and even resetting my phone network settings, since it was recommended, but I’m still stuck with my old phone number.

Changed plan Billing is the same

After Koodo upped my last plan by $5 i have switched to a better one for the original price. $50 for 40GB. I’m still being charged $58.75 and not the $50 +gst and other which would become the $53.75 ($54 ish). Why am i still being charged for my old plan?

Wrong name on file, wrong tax being applied, monthly discount not being applied, available mobile app?

Hello,I recently signed up with Koodo and got my first bill. Firstly, the name on file that the agent put in is incorrect, it shows Mattel instead of Matteo.Secondly, the plan I signed up for was the $50 a month with the $5.25 monthly credit each month. My most recent bill does not show this credit and I’m being charged for the full $50. Third, I’m not sure why the tax I’m being charged isn’t the correct tax for the region I’m in.Lastly, I was wondering if there was an available mobile app where I could check my usage, pay my bills and such for my Koodo account. I downloaded the MyTelus app and putting in my phone number and account number both return an error saying it’s invalid. Thanks,Matteo

Why is Koodo invoicing me for next months plan add ons?

I signed up for stream and some other plan add-ons on June 11th and on my bill Koodo charged me for partial service from June 11 to the end of my billing period (July 1st). Then they charged me the full amount for my next month's period (July 2 - August 1) causing my bill to super high. Can someone explain why I'm being charged for next month already on this bill?

eSIM Quick Transfer on Prepaid

Telus just announced support for eSIM Quick Transfer, which had already gone live quietly: https://www.iphoneincanada.ca/2023/07/06/telus-iphone-esim-quick-transfer-canada/ Any news on when this will be supported on Koodo for prepaid? Currently, it only works on postpaid SIMs. None of my local stores are carrying eSIM vouchers anymore.

Can't activate SIM card

Lost my phone and bought a new SIM card. Self Service gives me two alternatives to send verification code to: email and phone number. Obviously I don't have the number now so I chose email. Nothing comes through email after hours even if I resend. Note: I’ve checked spam messages nothing. Try calling customer service but robot only give call back option. I’ve no phone now.

Security Incident: Be Aware

Anyone who has been receiving obsessive password reset emails when they do not request password resets for their Koodo account should be seriously concerned. For months I’ve been intermittently receiving password reset emails, sometimes 4-5 per day that I do not request and yes they are from Koodo. I’ve contacted Koodo multiple times and they told me they were sent in error and to ignore them. Alas, I keep receiving them. Multiple times. I’ve changed my password 10-12 times now, just to be certain.  Today, I received an alarming email from Koodo, pasted below. I just want to make everyone aware that this has happened to me and to connect with Koodo if you’ve been receiving password reset emails incessantly. I’ve had to call Equifax to add a fraud alert to my credit file and will be cancelling my service with Koodo. This is totally unacceptable. Dear (name removed for privacy): We recently detected a security incident impacting your Koodo online account. What happened: Koodo Security id

Felt like a phishing scam

Om Thursday, June  29 @ 6:45 AST,  I received a phone call from a Koodo agent.  He was offering me a deal as a long time customer of Koodo.  I was offered 75 GB, 45 GB, 25 GB, and 25 GB for the four lines on my account.  In addition, I was offered a free camera (inside or outside) and free international texting on all four lines.  This offer came with an additional cost of about $20 per month (taxes in).  I agreed to the upgrade and that’s where the trouble began.  All of a sudden a lot of information was needed.  My full name, birthdate, and the last 4 digits of my driver’s license.  I did not suspect a thing because they would have to verify it was me and needed an address to send the camera.  I was put on hold for quite awhile and then the rep came back and asked for my full license number.  THEN, he asked for my social insurance number and when I said ,”absolutely not”, he said that I could instead give him my health card number or my passport number!!!   WHAT??!!    The last time

Device Care Complete waste of time

I recently had my phone stolen at work. went through the online process of deactivating it, followed the automated steps to input my account information through insurion, invalid information.Double checked my account  and letter for letter inputted into insurion. still denied.Okay….looked into it a bit further and it looks as though the previous owner of my number has her information inputted with insurion so I can not continue with the process. God forbid you need a real persons help, ive been bounced around between numbers (all but 1 was automated) and given literally 0 help.I pay for Device Care Complete and the lady i finally talked to told me i dont have coverage…then what the f** have i been paying for for over a year?Incredibly capable of taking my money, completely inept when the exchange of service is required.Im done with this garbage company, I’d recommend somewhere else but the whole cellphone industry in this country is an absolute disgrace.
