EasyRoam questions - re: dates, price change, travel pass

Hello all,

Two questions that I hope you can help me with:

  1. I activated EasyRoam before a trip to Ireland August 30 to September 7th. I was under the impression that it was $16 a day, which is what the website said when I researched it a few days before travel, as well as the text that Koodo kindly sends me from the airport. But when I looked at my bill recently, I see I was changed $16 per day for the first couple of days, but $18 per day for all the days from Tuesday, September 2nd onwards. Was there a rate change during my trip? Seems strange to start that on a Tuesday and/or the second day of the month. It also would have been nice to be alerted to that beforehand in the text (e.g. “Please note: rate will be increasing to $18 a day starting September 2nd.”)
  1. Today on the website, I see there is something called a “travel pass” where you can get 14 days for Europe for $50. I double-checked and Ireland is an eligible country. I would have definitely done that! But that travel pass was not appearing on the website when I researched all this back in mid-August. My husband wanted me to go the eSim route, but I wanted to keep my Canadian text number in case of emergencies. So I was sure to look all this up before I left and rationalized 9 days x $16 to be worth it if there was an emergency. So my question here is if the travel pass is not a continual promotion but one that only comes up every now and then? Because today it is showing on the website right in the EasyRoam section in a big red box that is hard to miss. 

I am aware that these two questions are more like forensic accounting now seeing as I just learned you only have 30 days to dispute any changes. I’ve been more of a “happily pay for good service without questioning it too much” customer up until now, but I suppose that time has now ended.

Thanks for any information you can offer.

Hey,

On the rate jump: Yes, Koodo changed Easy Roam pricing mid-trip; US went from $16 to $18/day, International from $16 to $18/day. The timing (Sept 2) lines up with their pricing update, though they didn’t notify you in-app. That’s frustrating but unfortunately happened.

On the travel pass: It’s a rotating promotion. Passes appear seasonally (Black Friday deals were just mentioned in November threads). Mid-August wouldn’t have shown it; that’s why you didn’t see it then. Worth checking back before future trips.

The 30-day dispute window is real. If this still bothers you, I can flag a rep to review the Sept 2 charges.

  1. Regarding the rate plan change in mid-trip. If you received a text saying you only had to pay $16 at the beginning, I would think you had a strong case to dispute even it is more than 30 day. However, you have to schedule a call back from Koodo. 
  1. The EU travel pass has been in the Koodo system for a while. It is just a bundle of roaming day package offered normally to all customer. And it was there in August 2025. 

Here is a previous thread in the forum 10 months ago about it
