Phones & Devices

Hey everyone,I find that one I'm in a remote area I lose my LTE service, which is as expected, but then my phone goes back to full bars at HSPA however there is no data coming or going.In these scenarios is there a setting that needs to be changed?Thanks,Bashir

I have given my nephew a Koodo phone number - 7056072269.   I am responsible for the payments.  When I try to set up this account on the web (here)  a verification number is sent to his phone and not me to set up the account.   I would like to be able to view this account and pay the bill.

So I became a Koodoo client 2 days ago.The locals told me that Telus is supposed to have the best coverage in the area (Interior BC).The strength of my signal is 0-2 bars.Data speed (when available 5% of time) is 0.24 mbpsMy plan is 10 gb/55$.I rebooted the phone in the last 2 days more that in the previous 4 years with Rogers.I live in downtown of a small tourist town. The reception hardware hasn’t caused me any problems with Rogers except for the areas in the mountains where they don’t have towers.What can be the problem?I feel like I’ve downgraded from Rogers, and am now paying more.

I am a Koodo customer as is one of my brothers.  Our mother transferred her Telus landline number to her Telus mobile.  Phones with Bell and Freedom can phone her but my brother and I just get a message saying it is not in service and 6UC2.  Any ideas?

  Just switched from Android A5 to IPhone SE because I could not charge my Android.   I received a text from Koodo telling me that I need to turn off next gen messaging on my Android but cannot access the Android because it will not charge.   I saw instructions on how to do this online via Google but the service said that I needed to contact Koodoo to have this done.   Can anybody assist here?

I have an iphone 12.  When I go to settings to create a hot spot, it says it cannot and that I should contact Koodo.  As I am sure you are aware, there is no way to speak to someone at Koodo.  Any suggestions?

I was issued a new phone number, activated my new account 24 hours ago and installed the new SIM earlier today after receiving it in the mail. The SIM card matches what is in my self service profile. I continue to see a “No Service” status. Airplane mode is off, Do Not Disturb mode is off, I have removed and re-installed the SIM card, reset my network settings, restarted the phone and still do not have any service on my iPhone SE (2020).  What else have I forgotten to do?  

I'm going away, but want to order a phone while it is on sale. Will they deliver a phone if I'm not there to receive it?  My parents could sign for it, but I wasn't sure if they only deliver to the person who ordered it.  Thanks!

Just ordered a new phone and updated the plan for one of my sons… all good.Went to order the same phone and update to the same plan and that plan is no longer available ?!?!Call back is scheduled 2 days from now, what ever happened to their customer service ?Has anyone experienced the same where a second phone was being purchased but the same plan is not available ?

I upgraded my phone. Old and new phone are both Samsung and with koodo. SIM card is in new phone but phone calls and text still are received on my old phone. What do I need to do to have that part completed?

Hello; So I'm looking at ordering a phone to replace my current one.  However since I've never ordered a phone online (always done it in Koodo shops) I've some questions as to how this will go. First of all let me start by saying I'm no "techie" and after looking at my questions this will become painfully obvious. 🙂What does activation entail when buying a phone online? How does one activate ones new phone through this process? Is it done at the time of order or is it as simple as me inserting the sim card when I receive the phone? Is there a time gap/delay between service? I know when I order in the shop everything is done seamlessly so that when I walk out of the shop I can use my new phone immediately. In addition to buying a new phone I also want to change my plan from my current to another with a visual VM add on. I'm assuming that the current plan is associated with my current sim card so I'm guessing that means that I'll be sent a new sim card with the new phone?  BTW, what hap

I had a repair done on my phone, and was given $100 off i I activated with koodo. I was to cancel within 14 day trial period to avoid being charged. I am trying to activate, but I get stuck at this screen.   

Hi Folks,I’ve got a Pixel 4a and my wife is using a OnePlus 7T. I’ve enabled EasyRoam with KooDoo for both our numbers. On the devices, I have enabled Roaming for the KooDoo SIMs.But, I am unable to send out any texts on SMS on the Google Pixel 4a.I’m can send out test texts from the OnePlus to the Pixel, and the Pixel recives the test. But I texts do not go out from the Pixel to the OnePlus.What have I configured this incorrectly?TIA

Screen stuck on pick new phone/add new line page. Can anyone help me?

Anyone know why I never have internet when the power in my area goes out? The last time, I also had issues with texting anyone.  Can't check on power outage status let alone report the outage without internet.

I have followed all of the steps to transfer my phone number to Koodo, it says it will take up to 2.5 hours. That was 5 hours ago and I currently cant even send SMS messages to anyone I also don’t receive messages if any are sent to me. I DO have the new Koodo sim card in my phone.It is VERY important that this process is complete before tomorrow as I am expecting a very important phone call. I have since called my old provider and they said that for some reason they didn’t get the “yes” confirmation text and I have to redo the whole process. The problem now is that self serve still says the transfer is in progress and there is no way for me to cancel it so I can start over.

I’ve read up on the subject on Koodo, Telus, XDA, and other websites.My OnePlus 6 has volte and vowifi enabled. My APNs and all settings are setup properly.  My SIM is ok for LTE.My Koodo account shows volte as an add-on.But volte does not work. It drops to 3G/H when I make a call.Going into my phone’s *#*#4636#*#* testing menu / phone information, it shows IMS Status / Registration as “not registered”. Who can I contact to whitelist my IMEI so that I can use volte and vowifi? I don’t want to call  regular customer service because they will likely give me the runaround that they’ve given many other people (“incompatible device”) or not know what I’m talking about. I require a higher level technician or engineer.BTW, I also have an LG V30 that has the same problem, yet it’s even on the Koodo list of supported devices! H933 Canada model. It was bought via Bell. My wife’s Samsung S10 (bought from Koodo) has volte and vowifi working perfectly (the testing menu shows IMS as being registered

For few days my data is very slow. Websites will not even load. Its only if I disaable my VPN that data works.  I was told by customer service that Koodo does not support VPNs but it always worked in past.  Anyone else have this issue? What can be done? 

A friend escaping a BAD relationship notes "I hate that even after you block someone on your iPhone they can STILL leave voicemails. Their number doesn’t show up on your call display, your voicemail counter doesn’t show you have a message but when you check your messages, SURPRISE!" Any help to block this caller would be appreciated. I recognize if he changes his source phone # we are SOL. But if he uses his normal phone surely we can block him from VM. Thanks!iPhone 8+

Hi all.So, my wife’s iPhone 12 can receive messages with photos via MMS, but she can’t send them. She always gets this error: “Cannot send message. MMS nneds to be enabled to send this message.“ Sending texts without photos works fine.I’ve thoroughly checked her settings. MMS is turned on. So is cellular data. So is data roaming. It’s not on airplane mode. She’s adequately connected to a network (three or four bars). Cellular data works fine when internet browsing or when sending or receiving iMessages with photos when connected to a cellular network. I’ve rebooted the phone. I’ve reset network settings.Yet the problem persists.Any advice?

I received an email from Koodo with instructions on how to return my phone. But there was no printing label attached. There was a link but it was broken, went to a 400 error. Do I need a label or will they print one at Canada Post? Do I need to provide an address? There is a Telus return policy number. Is this all I need? 

the short version - my voicemail is not working, koodo says it should be working. yet no one can leave a message, and i cannot retrieve the messages. the long version - My friends and family cannot leave me a voicemail.  When they call me, it either goes to a busy type signal or “this person is not available” type message. I am currently out of country (in Mexico). I checked my voicemail about 10 days ago by calling my number (from a different phone in Mexico) and entering my password when my voicemail answered. My mailbox was empty at that time. Yesterday was the first day I tried to use my koodo sim in Mexico. The first call I tried to make was to my voicemail by pressing 1.  The call failed due to ‘call barring’ which I understand might be a koodo hates samsung sort of thing (still under review).  Hopefully they will refund my easyroam charge from yesterday as I was unable to receive an important phone call due to the voice issues on my easyroam. I then assumed not being able to acc
