Got a new phone last night. Sitting in my home right now and says I'm roaming. Been in my home for 2 1/2 years and have never had this problem. Why is my new phone doing this?
I am a new customer of Koodo. I switched over from Fido two days ago and now I’m travelling to San Francisco California. I get no service. PLEASE HELP.! URGENT! THANK YOU!!
I have a found iphone in the Saugeen SHores Ontario area. Want to reconnect it with the owner. Its locked with no Emerg conttact, data or wifi. I have the SIM number hoping that KOODO can contact the owner. tg
I’m currently with Public Mobile, and I recently found out that they usually throttle their 4G LTE down to 3G speeds. I see that Koodo and Public are both sub-brands of Telus, so I was wondering: does Koodo do this as well?
How do I look at old deleted text messages from 5 months ago?
Hey, bought a new SIM card for Koodo, I want to activate it for my unlocked phone and keep my number. Surely this can be done easily online by now?
Hello,Could someone explain to me why I am getting data warning on my phone at 2gb when I pay for 6gb? I get those in my phone data usage. Thanks
Lately I have not been able to use my data while I am out. My texts will not go nor can I access any apps that require data on my iphone. When I am connected to wifi everything is fine. I have not used up my monthly data limits and I have already reset my network connections. Both my kids who are also on Koodo are experiencing the same problem. Someone said it is because there is too much traffic on our one tower in town? Any suggestions? I am really considering switching carriers. I have missed important texts and emails while I am out.
When I hold down the “1” to access voicemail it says “voicemail number unavailable”. When I go into the voicemail settings to check it shows no voicemail number assigned, but you can’t click on anything to input a number. any thoughts?
Just switched my phone to an A32. Can not text or recieve texts
I’m trying to switch my service to Koodo with a monthly plan but the cheak out won’t accept my Cibc Visa debit, BMO Master debit or BMO MasterCard charge card.Are there any other ways send them money or open an account?
Hi Everyone, I’ve signed up for Koodo Mobile yesterday and I’ve had the unfortunate circumstance of facing difficulties at almost every stage of the signup process. I requested to port my number from Freedom, but spent the last 48 hours in the blank. Koodo has informed me that Freedom and Virgin Mobile have been experiencing issues with their service and have been unable to send a Port Request SMS.Therefore, the Koodo Customer Service Rep changed my temporary number in hopes of pushing through the request. That attempt initially failed and I had to endure a 48 hour wait before randomly getting a Port SMS. Upon accepting and replying “YES” my original number was disconnected and upon putting the new Koodo sim card in my phone the number was never ported (or potentially ported to the original temporary number assigned). In any event, I’ve setup three call backs and I can’t manage to receive any assistance. The automated system asks me to select “1 to talk to a representative” and then t
Hello, i ordered a new phone , its unlocked from a. 3rd party. Can i just put the sim i have in my existing phone into the new phone? The new phone is unlocked i bought from 3rd party, nothing to do with Koodo. Will it lock the SIM card up forcing me to have to buy a new sim at a kiosk? Its the same nano sim size so,……. Can i just put the sim i have into the new phone?Thanks. Existing customer, existing phone dieing hard and surely, trying to avoid extra costs or stupid steps. Please make life easy for me PLEASE. Is it as simple as just move it the sim over? thanks
Is anyone else having issues with not receiving incoming calls? Incoming calls go directly to voicemail
Hi there,I would like to cancel the phone and account because I moved to overseas. Can I cancel by e-mail or on-line? I already made a payoff my tap ( will pay sooner), so when can I cancel the phone and how? Please let me know that. Thanks.Sincerely, Jiyoung.
For years I have had a bring your own phone plan. I pay $40 for 500mb data, 500 minutes, and unlimited text messaging. I am now looking at changing my plan and I see a prepaid plan for $30 that is 500mb+500mb with automatic top up, and unlimited calling and messaging. This is a better plan for cheaper. I was wondering what the difference was between prepaid plans and a bring your own phone plan, and if there was any downsides to a prepaid vs my regular phone plan. Any help/information would be greatly appreciated.
There have been many threads on this but have not seen anyone post evidence to show data usage from their phones to rule out apps draining data in the background. I’m experiencing the same thing as everyone has said, random blocks of exactly 100.00 MB of data being used, sometimes more (as much as 1600.00 MB in my case). Yesterday I received an automated text stating I’ve used 90% of my data for this billing cycle.Here are some screenshots showing what the built in android data tracker is reporting vs what Koodo is reporting. I don’t expect them to be exactly the same but when the difference is about 6 GBs, something is definitely wrong. I don’t think rogue apps are to blame here.Phone: Pixel 4 - Build RQ3A.211001.001 (October 2021 update)
I am 5 days into my cycle and I got a text saying I’ve used over 5G. I’ve never used 5 G in a wholemonth before. When I check on self serve it shows that I’m at 6521/10240, but when I click on view details it shows I’ve only used 518.1641 MB. That’s a pretty massive difference. Which one will Koodo use? Will j get overage charges if the first one is wrong or will it use the detailed number? This is my first month with Koodo so I’m not sure if I should be calling them or if someone can help me here. Thanks!

Hello,I received a roaming alert by Koodo. The e-mail stated:Looks like ***-***-3260 is roaming on a USA network. Just so you know! . . . I am in Canada. Someone else would be currently roaming with my phone number in the United States, or somewhere else.How can this unapproved using of my telephone number be ended?I have not activated roaming in my account. I cannot block this kind of third party roaming. I cannot call Koodo in this matter; and I don’t find any assistance online.What can be done?Sincerely,Rene
I’ve blocked about 7 numbers which is working very well however since then, I’ve had some friends trying to call me and they need to press a one single digit to be able to bypass the blocking feature. Is this part of the blocking option, because most of them don’t listen to all of the message and hang up without hearing the prompt to enter the single digit number to proceed. Hope my question is clear enough. then they tell me, “ I tried to call you but your number’s blocked” TY
Hi There can anyone help me? I am super worried because I accidentally searched inappropriate websites with my koodo data. Will Koodo know I have searched those inappropriate websites. If you get this message can you please message me thanks
Hi. I cannot receive sms verification codes from my bank overseas. I don't see records of texts from the bank in my message history when I log in to koodo self serve, so that rules out the possibility that the issue is with my phone. I can receive texts from family abroad.Does koodo block texts from overseas banks? I've seen a few threads on this same issue but couldn't really find a solution posted. I also looked into the Canada sms short codes list (https://www.txt.ca/en/) and don't see my bank listed on there. However, there are other banks on the list from the same country overseas. I'm really at loss as to what to do next. If anyone has a solution to this, would really appreciate the help. Thank you!
I want to verify the process for verifying an add a line order done with a rep on the phone. I received a text with an AAL offer and called the number from in the message. After discussing with the agent decided to go through with an activation. The asked standard account verification questions like my PIN, DOB and address. Then was asking credit verification question, which felt personal and unnecessary since this is an additional line, and no credit check would be done. The agent explained it was a 4 question verification process that needed to be done for any addition of services. It was questions like the province my SIN was issued. I was uncomfortable with this. She was saying its mandatory guidelines from the CRTC which I know to be untrue. So my question is, is this actually a verification process standard to koodo?
Can I change back my # to the previous one I had?
