Sim Swap scam and how Koodo react

Dear Koodo Customer Relations Team,

 

I am writing to formally appeal the outcome of my recent fraud report regarding a SIM swap scam on my Koodo account.

On Jan 07, 2026, my mobile service was unexpectedly disconnected. I later discovered that my SIM card had been swapped without my knowledge or authorization, allowing an unknown third party to gain control of my phone number. As a result, the fraudster was able to access sensitive accounts linked to my number and caused unauthorized activity and financial loss.

I want to be very clear: I did not request or consent to any SIM swap or account changes. This activity was fraudulent.

I expected clear communication, timely support, and appropriate handling of my concerns. Unfortunately, my recent experience has fallen well below those expectations. The issue I raised was not handled effectively, and I was left feeling unheard and unsupported.

What has been most frustrating is the lack of accountability and resolution. I have spent considerable time attempting to address this matter, yet the outcome has been unsatisfactory and has caused unnecessary stress and inconvenience.

I believe customers deserve reliable service and fair treatment, especially when serious issues arise. I am requesting that this matter be reviewed and addressed promptly, with clear communication regarding next steps and resolution.

I hope Koodo will take this feedback seriously and work toward restoring my confidence as a customer.

I thought carriers have hardend security features significantly regarding SIM swapping? Did you ever receive a SMS from Koodo requesting a SIM change/transfer?

And yet it recently happened on my account through Koodo web site with e-sim and without my consent.

I did contact Koodo customer line as well as loyalty department, but their response was not acceptable and some of them was hard to understand the situation (lack of communication) if you guys ever care about customer, please refer to personal comment that i sent.

Since this is a customer forum, we don't have access to your account or the event itself. It would be helpful if you could describe more details of what happened and what the response was (without any personal information).

By the way, did Koodo admit it's a system problem, and is there anyone else who had access to your self-service?
