Extremely disappointed: Public Mobile migration nightmare (Promised 100GB, given 1GB)

​Hi everyone,

​I’m posting here because I am incredibly disappointed with Koodo’s customer service and I have completely hit a wall trying to get support.

​I recently decided to switch from Public Mobile to Koodo to take advantage of a migration offer: $30 CAD for 100GB of 5G data. However, when I tried to process this, the discount wouldn't apply at checkout.

​To fix this, I called customer service. I spent hours on the phone trying to get my provider changed and the promotion applied. After a very long and exhausting process, I was told the original offer couldn't be honored and was offered a fraction of the data instead: $25 CAD for 26GB. While I was frustrated to miss out on the initial deal, I reluctantly agreed just to get the switch finalized.

​Unfortunately, it gets worse. I just checked my account details and realized that the plan actually activated on my account is for a measly 1GB of data.

​I have been trying to call customer service back to get this error fixed, but I haven't been able to get through to anyone or receive any support whatsoever. I am now stuck with a plan I never agreed to and practically no data.

​This has been an awful first impression of Koodo. Has anyone else experienced this bait-and-switch during a migration? Can a Koodo rep on this forum please look into my account and fix this immediately?

​Thanks.

Hello there,

Have you got any screenshots about this migration offer? Any confirmation e-mail received for the 25 CAD for 26GB plan? We can flag a rep here to look into your account to see exactly what could have happened.

​Hi Robert,

​Thanks for getting back to me.

​Yes, I do have a screenshot of the original migration offer, which I have attached to this reply. It clearly shows the promotion for $30 for 100GB at 5G speeds (factoring in the $10 auto-pay discount).

​Regarding the $25 CAD for 26GB plan, I unfortunately do not have a confirmation email for that. That alternative offer was made verbally by the customer service representative over the phone after the original checkout failed. Since it was all done on the call, I didn't get it in writing and I didn't record the conversation.

​I would really appreciate it if you could flag a Koodo rep to look into my account. I just want this resolved so I am not stuck with a 1GB plan after going through all of this hassle to switch over.

​Thanks for your help!
