why on a $15 plan incoming calls are  counted in the 100minutes, the plan states incoming calls originating in Canada are free?

Best answer by Darius Koodo

Hello @str 

I’ve looked into the plan specs for you and, the one offered on postpaid, states : 

  • 100 outgoing nationwide minutes
  • Unlimited incoming nationwide minutes   

Receiving calls from Canadian numbers within Canada, to Canada, will be unlimited. While checking the usage in the Self Serve account, you would be able to differentiate between outgoing and incoming.

That should be correct. However, they are likely referring to Canada-wide calls that are made from a Canadian number. Does the caller have a different area code from another country?

Is this a current or older 15 dollar plan?

The terminology for both the prepaid and postpaid 15 dollar plans simply states unlimited incoming minutes and Unlimited incoming Canada-wide minutes with no fine print. Incoming calls while in Canada for your plan would be free. So I don't know why you're getting charged. I'll flag a rep to assist.
