      About time, and they should make companies unable to change the price of the plan I agreed to

      Koodo started to increase my bill over the course of 3 months First added a $3 3g charge without informing me Then increased the price 2x increasing my monthly bill by $10 overall

      I agreed to 30 gb for $35 not 30 gb for $50

        Adding charges without your permission goes against the wireless code.

        I had great success last year arguing koodo back down to $35 monthly, and got a free upgrade to boot!

          I did get it brought back down. But this js what happebs when all we got is a Triopoly. Idk why all our communications is privately owned. My town is finally getting fibre installed by a small company and currently we can get a max of a 10mbit down 1mbit up line…

          Private companies provide worse service for more because they jave to pay share holders. Bout time we just nationalise the big 3 providers

            Oh and the arguement why they were allowed to dobit is koodo does not do “contracts” and no lobger provided that option so moved me to the next package…

            Yes this is what the koodo rep told me
