I'm an existing monthly koodo customer. I've been considering upgrading my phone since its paid off. I've been eyeing some of the phones and the prices. Up until recently, the monthly tab prices would show as higher until I logged into my self serve, the screen asking if I wanted to upgrade for my existing account would pop up, and once I selected that, the prices would lower. However, recently the prices have stopped lowering. Once I log in and select that yes I want to upgrade, the prices just stay the same. For example, the Samsung s24 FE is now $13/month for tab plus or mid, vs $3/month before. There is a slightly better offer for a cheaper plan ($45/month with autopay vs $50 before), but that still works out to be more expensive. I'm just wondering if this is normal, or am I experiencing a glitch? I've tried logging in with different devices and browsers, but same results. The Samsung is just one example, all of the prices are higher now.
Also, I recently had a major issue that makes me weary to stay with koodo at all. I was sending text messages to people and from my end, I was definitely texting the right person. But other friends were contacting me saying they actually received my messages instead. I was extremely concerned about this, since it's a HUGE privacy issue. I dont want to have to worry that if I text my partner, its somehow accidentally going to one of my parents, or if I'm venting to a coworker, that my boss could be getting it instead. Has anyone experienced this before? I reset the network settings and it seems to have stopped, but it's not like I had been messing with the settings before that, so I'm not even sure if that was the issue or why it would have been. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
