Phone not working in parts of my apartment

HelloI have a Samsung Galaxy S21 phone and I’m on the 5G network with Koodo. I live in a small 1-bedroom apt in a highrise building in downtown Toronto and strangely, my phone doesn’t work in parts of my living room which is small. It doesn’t work in the kitchen/dining area and sometimes doesn’t even ring.  I only know if someone has called me if they leave a voicemail.  In the living area, my voice cuts out depending on where I’m sitting. I have to sit in an armchair close to the balcony to have a conversation. The apt is only 650 sq ft and it’s ridiculous that I don’t get signal in parts of it. I’m wondering who I could talk to and if anyone else has experienced this problem. I would appreciate any thoughts on why this might be happening. I don’t have any problems outside of my apt.

cannot receive calls from certain numbers

cannot receive calls from certain numbers eg Intuit; Koodo. I have tried with Call Control enabled/ disabledI went to a Koodo kiosk and the agent duplicated the issue, He said that He hadn’t seen the issue before, and gave me a number to call to talk to someone but it didn’t work as the calls from Koodo support aren’t getting through to me. I have a brand new LG Velvet phone, and my partner has a  Samsung note 9 with the same issue

Koodo keeps contacting cogeco instead of rogers

So, I've tried to sign up for Koodo internet to no avail. The first time, I signed up, got my equipment, and when I tried to set it up, nothing worked. Contacted support, and for some reason, Koodo has my address as serviced by Cogeco, so when Koodo reached out for access, Cogeco advised they don't service my address.  Right, because my address only has coax internet with Rogers.  So tech support notes the account, says to return the equipment and reorder, and hope they contact the right company this time. Both times I selected Rogers as the current provider. Second time, same thing, they contact Cogeco again. So what gives? Does Koodo not want any business in this massive area of Hamilton that has no fibre cable and also no Cogeco service? Doing a callback doesn't help since they just tell me to reorder......how can they not change this?

SMS Not Working

Hi,I transferred my number from a different provider to Koodo about a week ago. I received and replied to the text message for the port request. Unfortunately, my text messages are not working; I can’t send or receive them. Phone calls and data are working fine though. Has anyone encountered this issue and is there a solution? Thanks!

Reset Network Wettings fixes iPhone for a day, only - apple says it's a Koodo problem.

We;ve had my wifes Iphone 14 pro max at the apple store twice to find out why the voice is not working all the time when she is speaking. it sounds garbled and faint when she holds the phone to her ear, until she puts in on “Speaker”. then we can hear her fine. She can always hear us fine.we “reset network settings”, based on the Apple service advice. it worked, but only for about a day, then it went back to garbled and faint when she holds the phone to her ear. but it works fine when she is on speaker.Apple says to speak to Koodo to fix, as they (Apple Store) did their diagnostics on the phone, and says it is a Network problem, the phone checks out fine.Can you help with this problem, of my wifes Koodo phone speech being gabled and faint when she holds her phone to her ear and speaks?Please let me know...thanks very muchI should have stated, that we also removed and replaced the sim, and also restarted the phone to try to fix. But the problem remains.

Cant Send-Rec Texts from ONE Contact, otherwise fine

Greetings. I have Koodo, iPhone. My friend has Telus and who would know what kind of phone? She sends texts, they don’t arrive. I send texts, she doesn’t get them. She doesn’t use other messaging apps. She’s the only contact I have that this happens with. We have tried everything to resolve on our own. Stymied. Thx. SF

Rogers Cable installer cut my line while i was away on vacation URGENT!

I just got back from a week long vacation in Mexico to find my Internet is down. No signal to the model after several reboots and disconnecting the power for 1-2 min.When I asked my neighbour if they saw anyone do anything to the line (was running through a tree from install during the winter) from their house. I was told Rogers was onsite buried the cable the other day. I fear the install was not done correctly and I no longer have a live signal coming into our house. Worst timing as I have work to do!I kept going in circles with requesting a callback. "We're busier than usual right now, and unable to get you to a rep at this time" This is pretty horrible service folks! When I need you to get Rogers back to correct their mistake I can't even get through to anyone at Koodo!Could I please get some assistance with this?

WIFI connected but no internet

I recently got koodo internet.Everything is setup, the modem is showing full connection; wifi shows a green light, but I can’t access any webpage, other than the wifi router page.  Internet works when I connect directly to the modem.I’ve tried connecting through Lan 1 from my computer and still no success.I’ve tried changing the DNS settings both on the router and my computer, 8.8.8.8 still no luck.I’ve tried contacting koodo but they’re busy.  I’m not sure if its a defective router.  I can ping up to the modem, but pinging outside doesn’t work. I’ve tried everything I can think of with no success.  Thank god I didn’t cancel my old internet yet.

Lost 5G connectivity

Sometime in the last week my phone devolved to 4G, perhaps around the time that I received a bunch of Android updates. My phone runs the latest Android 13 release. How do I get 5G back?

New Phones

How often does Koodo change the phones on their website?  I saw a deal on a phone advertised for a few days. I went to go buy it when I had the chance and now it's gone. I am wondering if it will come back or if they change the deals monthly?

New phone No SIM card

Transferred Wrong Phone number in error, how to fix?

Ok - So I made a mistake and don’t know how to fix it.I have 3 numbers with Kodo.  1 I activated in December and is my daughters.2 numbers I have been sitting on and just got around to transferring them.When I transferred the first one, I selected my daughters phone number instead of mine (temporary) and then put in all the info to transfer and it worked.  However, I now have my phone number going to my daughter’s phone and it replaced her phone number.What are my options?  Switch the SIM in her phone to mine to get my phone call to my phone, but just accept there her phone number is gone?

Apple live voicemail not working

Hello, I am a new customer to Koodo. Ever since I switched from my previous provider to Koodo, I am unable to use Apple’s Live voicemail. S/w - iOS 17.4.1 (before switching to Koodo and currently on the same iOS version while reporting about this issue).The following settings were checked by Apple tech support:Live voice mail feature - turned on Hey Siri - turned on Call forwarding - turned offPerformed a network settings reset When I was with my previous carrier, I had this same issue. All i had to do was to reach out to customer service and ask them to disable the voicemail tagged to my phonenumber. This ensured that, all the calls came into my phone’s live voicemail. Currently , after I switched to Koodo my Live voicemail feature is not working. Requested the tech support to perform the same thing. ​​​​​​They disabled the voicemail feature but now the calls are getting disconnected with a busy tone or “1B1 the client you are trying to reach is not available”. Tech support disabled a

Just tried to order a new phone & it became unavailable as I tried to send the order

I had a phone in the cart with a new plan selected and then suddenly the phone was “out of stock” and the other colour still available was now a different price. Something similar happened last time I tried to order a new phone a couple moths ago. I’m so frustrated, it’s like Koodo doesn’t want me ordering a new phone. I’m about ready to just buy one off Amazon so I know the phone I’m trying to order actually exists still.

not going to be home/wrong apartment number

I ordered a phone a couple days ago, I put the address on my ID cause I assumed I would pick up the order at an access point. I moved from that apartment into the one below it. So  my ID says 2 and the one I live in currently is 1. I'm also going to be gone the whole day of delivery which is the 17th.  Koodo has made it so it cannot be delivered anywhere except the original address, which is my neighbor. I'm just so frusterated and worried I'm not going to get my phone. I set up a callback with koodo for the morning so hopefully they can change the shipping address and day, or let me pick up the item at a access point preferably.
