My phone was suspended several days for no reason

J
I got a new koodo phone number on 16th,May .and then I got a message on 19th,May . "Your service has been suspended due to suspicious usage. Call *611 to restore."then I called *611, they gave me a telus email and I sent the documents they required . Today is 25th, my phone is still suspended! Anything wrong ? It's really bothering as I left this phone number in my resume as I am looking for a new job here. Could you do anything to help me to restore my phone ? One week passed ,still suspended !!!

Hello Jiang,

If you really need your phone, I would call Koodo to see what's really happening with your request.

That message typically suggest that something triggered a fraud alert. Doesn't always mean it's the case, but given the sensitivity not much is disclosed even if customer is used. Customer is asked to provide additional personal info, an investigation is started and either all is good and account is reinstated or remains closed. It all depend on the findings.

Not really, beyond that the account is still being looked at. Any more info would aid those who really want to commit fraud.

Sorry.  I didnt mean the details of the investigation, but at least an estimated time when the investigation may be completed.  A week is a very long time to be without service

I am a new immigrant here. And I want to know when I can use my phone. One week passed, and I do not know anything about the status. I have offered the photo of both sides of my PR card, my sin number,a bank statement as proof of my address. If more materials needed,could you email me? The worst thing is that I totally have no idea when I can use my phone.

I understand your frustration but there unfortunately isn't much that you can do. I don't know why it takes so long sometimes either as it should be quicker but it is what it is sadly. Maybe you can try calling from another phone or Skype or something to see if anything can be done but for the most part it's whenever the fraud department clears it

ID verification can take some time and often varies in length. Hence the reason why giving even estimated time is difficult.

No comment has been deleted from what I can tell. Is the name the one you are using here is the one on your Koodo account as well?

No . Different one. I post the question on behalf of my friend as she does not have a Facebook account. Can I gave her koodo account through some private way, I mean not publish her account here. Thanks

You can contact Koodo via private message on Facebook or twitter.

I recommend that your friend just create a dummy account to speak with Koodo

I'm fairly sure that they will not give you info on your friends account for security reasons. Your friend will have to contact Koodo via Facebook or Twitter, or call in. I suspect that if their account is still under investigation at this point, something more is going on.
