Phones & Devices

A number of years ago, I opted out of text message promos, and seeing some of the deals people are getting, my family included, I would like to opt back in. I already signed up for emails, but seeing things like people getting extra gigs has got me wanting the text offers as well. Is this possible?

I bought a phone unlocked on Amazon, can I purchase Device Care through Koodo?

I have a iphone 11 ( not 5G compatible) with a plan where i chose speed boost as a perk(ie. 4G speed with speed boost). Will the speed be better with this plan versus changing to a 5G plan ( no speed boost option)where I only can get the compatible 4G speed( due to my phone)? I think it is better to stay with current plan but wanted to make sure I understood the speed options.

So it’s been a couple of days now trying out Koodo after porting from Rogers. Talk and text is working great, but I’m finding data is a little sluggish and not as snappy as before. For example images on Instagram load one by one, FaceTime/YouTube buffers, and webpages take longer to populate.What’s odd is after doing some speed tests, I was getting around 150 mbps down which should be more than enough. I also went to different locations to test the network and even with full bars, data would still feel slow. I already tried resetting my phone’s network settings and toggling from 5G to LTE, but not much of a difference…I’m currently using an iPhone 14 Pro and Koodo e-SIM.Assistance on this would be greatly appreciated!

i am physically in Ontario, but somehow I have been getting prompted no US roaming for my plan when trying to make phone call.Can’t receive calls either. not sure what is the issue. any ideas? thanks in advance. 

Hey there,I just moved to koodo.I tried a speed test because the mobile Internet seemed to rush. I barely got 4mb in download... my brother next to me is with koodo for years. He did a speed test on his 4G, he got 125 mb in download... I put my SIM card in his phone, we did a speed test, 4-5mb again.Conclusion : the issue is not my phone, it's my plan! Now I read on reddit a huge amount of feedback from people complaining of the same thing. So I'm here to get some help because I've been promised 4G speed so I want 4G speed lol.  Is it slow because I just moved to koodo and need to wait a bit for setup to be completed and all this or is there anything else? Earlier this evening, when trying to connect on data, it said "connected, no internet". I already tried to reset many mobile settings like network type, APNs, etc. I restarted the phone and all. Now, when connecting on Mobile data, it says "4G" instead of "no in

When i call someone, the location display only shows “Canada”. But other phone numbers are showing eg. Toronto, Ontariomay i know how to enable showing city and province? Is there any tweaks on iphone?my area code is 437 to supplement.

Hello I just purchased a certified pre owned phone on a new line on my account for my daughter. She wants to walk school by herself or with her friends but I told her she needed a phone before she was able to. I just want to know if I can pay extra or if there was a way to get expedited shipping ?

We live in the middle of Advanced 4G LTE zone but are getting only 3G service.  About to switch providers if this isn’t resolved. 

Hi, I am trying to get my new VoIP GSM/3G Gateway to work with my Koodo sim card without success.I have tried with other sim cards from Fizz and Rogers and they work perfect, but not with Koodo.My device, TG100 works on the frequenciesGSM Frequency 850/900/1800/1900 MHzWCDMA Frequency 850/1900 MHz, 850/2100 MHz, 900/2100 MHzhttps://www.yeastar.com/voip-gsm-gateway/#specifications-acrIs it a compatibility problem with Koodo frequencies?! I am not sure.thanks

Hi! I need a rep to add volte to the newest line on my account please. Thanks! 

Hi Koodo Kommunity,I recently went backwoods camping with a friend and wasn’t able to connect with any kind of service (which is understandable).  However, my friend had reception and she is with Rogers.  Shouldn’t my phone have been able to connect with her coverage if mine is unavailable?  My data was set to active as was my phone’s roaming option.  I also manually attempted to connect to Rogers.  I just assumed that if I’m not able to connect with my service that I would be able to hop onto another provider’s.  Or is this not the case?Thanks,Clayton 

My ex spouse needed to get a new phone, but his phone is in an account under my name. He contacted Koodo, didn’t have access to my drivers license and couldn’t remember my birthday. Because he didn’t have the needed info, he ordered a phone on line (from Koodo).  When I contacted Koodo about this they told me to shut the account down. He was abusive with violent tendencies, and I was fearful that he would retaliate if I shut the account down.  He hasn’t paid an outstanding balance which is reflected on my credit rating. I contacted Koodo and asked them if they could write off those charges because I had contacted them about him fraudulently obtaining a new phone under my name. I was told because he had paid some bills they could not do that. This left me with the impression that Koodo will allow someone access to a new phone (who is not the account holder) as long as the bill is paid. Once the bill is not paid that’s when they seem to care. 

Hey everyone,I have a koodo sim myself and wanted to set my two up on plans too, adding their lines to my account, so I ordered them each a new sim plan via self serve. It only let me order one at a time and each time made me click ‘add a line’ to go through to checkout, so seemed to make sense.My question is really a double-check have I done everything right? And when will their lines/plans appear on my self serve page? It shows no trace of the two new orders I’ve placed and doesn’t show 2 more lines anywhere - only my own monthly plan.Thanks!

Grandfather was given this phone to replace his broken one, tossed his SIM in and its asking me to unlock it from Koodo, he cant remember who gave him the phone and unfortunately I dont live near him. Is there a AIO lock code for these things?  I tried searching online but its all asking for money to unlock it and because I’m not a Customer, I cant unlock it via Self Help?Current wait for a callback is 2 hours, currently in que .  Wondering if anyone here has any ideas or can help?

Operator of Koodo Telus made a huge mistake and disconnected my previous number to connect my wife s number on this SIM, and my wife still have temporary SIM number. My sim has her number. And my number is not active. I need you to fix it right now! I can't use my number!!!

How can I add on a new person with applying for a new Koodo mobile number under my existing account as a family plan

I switch to 5G plan and restart my iPhone X (IOS16.6) several times, but the voice and data setting shows only LTE/3G.

I just swapped my plan to a 5G plan on a pixel 7. My speeds using 5G are measuring slower than if I force my phone to use 4G. Any advice? 

I was interested in buying the iPhone 14 where you pay $32.08 over 24 months. Does anyone know if I would have to change/upgrade my phone plan in order to buy this? My phone plan already has some modifications on it and is a good deal so I don’t want to have to change it. Thanks.

Has anyone received this message lately? I can’t find it on the know fraud community and want to know if I need to be concerned.  messageKoodo: We've received a request to transfer a wireless phone number on your account to another service provider. We've sent a text msg request to the wireless user to approve the request. This message is for your information only . Thank you. thanks!!

I just heard all of my colleagues receive an emergency alert (not a test) and I did not.  Can anyone help please?  This has been the case with my last two iPhones.  Currently on an iPhone 11 and it is updated.  Thank you!  

I wanna cancel seasonal hold, but my phone number is unable to get callback, i need use other number to get callback, but now i don’t have other number to get callback. What should I do? Thanks!

Hello Team,The apartment where I live has this phone access where one can punch in a unit number and it would dial to my phone. Then I’ll pick up the call, able to talk to the caller, and if i wish to open the front door for them to get it (friends, delivery driver), then I press button 9 on the keypads.  It worked once before during the demonstration, but now it doesn’t. The apartment manager said it could be something to do with the phone provider, and i should contact to get a reset or something.please advise.  thank you. Khiem.
