Hey allHubby ran over his fone and now won't turn on. Took sim card out and put in an old phone he had. He can use this fone to make and receive text messages and phone calls from his number but doesn't have any record of texts for last two years. As I can't power up the phone he ran over..is there anyway to transfer texts without phone?

Reset Network Settings 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.

Physical SIM data not working

I recently went to the US and used an eSIM for data only. Once I got back to Canada I deleted the eSIM and my phone shows the 5G signal, but every app gives the prompt “no internet connection”. I’ve tried removing the SIM and putting it back in, restarting the Cellular Data Network, restarting my phone multiple times (haven’t tried factory reset yet though), turning cellular data on and off, etc. Has anyone else had this problem? (I have a iPhone 13 pro max).Thanks in advance!

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?

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

Recently I bought a new phone through Koodoo. They said my new plan and SIM was on its way. Then I received an email saying they found an old account and for some reason couldn’t complete the subscription. I still received the phone but I have no plan or card. How do I fix this? I have no idea about an old plan with them. I tried to setup a Samsung account on my old phone but could never access it. Can you help this confused guy/

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
