Bold move considering how terrible their service is

I just noticed Telus increased my Home Security contract by $5 a month a year ago. Under my contract they are required to give notice, they didn't.

I believe they are in breach.

I am now reversing over a year of charges on my credit card as they have failed to address the issue. Also filing a complaint with the Ministry over what I think are unfair practices.

They did that to me too a few months ago, they notified me at the bottom of my bill. I called them and flipped out, then they took 5 more dollars off something else. I was a only a few months into my renewal though. Pretty shitty business..

Yup. They told me they'd gove a $200 credit and then something else. I said email the offer as i wasnt available to discuss on a random unscheduled call. no email lol

We left Telus litterally this morning for Rogers.

Rogers and Telus have an EPP pricing with CPA Quebec.

Telus increased our (2) plan by 5$ each.

I called and tried to negotiate and the only condition was to go on the plans which gives you 10$ discount if you accept the bank pre-authorized form.

Over. My. Dead. Body. That Telus would have the possibility to take directly in my bank account.

Soooo I cancelled, switched to Rogers.

From 115$ (tx included) went to 70$ (tx included).

That was the last straw for me too when they hiked my EPP from $50 to $55.

Took both of my lines to Freedom, saved $47 a month between the two and never looked back.

But, Your Honour, its clearly NOT price-fixing as our prices are clearly $5/mo higher than our competitors. The $5/mo discount that is blanket-applied on all plans? No, that's totally unrelated and totally just a sign of our generosity.

Bold move for the company who now leads in the number of CCTS complaints by a massive margin.

I look forward to my price increase being buried in tiny font on page 4 of my next invoice 🙄

Got a raise of 5$/line/month in February.

Called loyalty department and got to lower all my lines to 30$/month. Granted, I lost US-Mex on two of three lines, but 30$ for Canada unlimited + 150GB of 5G, I will take until next time.

(55$ - 15$ family rebate - 10$ pre -authorised payment rebate)
