Last updated: September 2026

Most Koodo complaints go to the CCTS, not the CRTC. Billing errors, unauthorized charges, contract disputes and service that does not work as sold are all CCTS matters. The CCTS is free, independent of Koodo, and can order refunds of up to $5,000. You can reach it at 1-888-221-1687.

Reaching Koodo First

Koodo does not publish an inbound support line. Support runs through Koodo Assist chat, which schedules a callback — so the call comes to you.

Before You File

The CCTS expects you to have tried to resolve it with Koodo first, so do this part properly — it is also what makes your complaint concrete.

  1. Contact Koodo through the support route above and note the date, who you spoke to, and any reference or ticket number.
  2. Write down what you are actually asking for: a refund of a specific amount, a charge removed, a contract cancelled without penalty.
  3. Keep your bills. The bill showing the disputed charge is the single most useful document you have.

Escalating Beyond Front-Line Support

Koodo is the one brand here that genuinely hands its complaints to its parent. Koodo’s own inquiries page routes to the TELUS complaint portal, which handles TELUS and Koodo together and escalates to a management team.

Beware numbers you find on third-party "customer service number" sites for Koodo. At least one widely published number is an outbound caller-ID Koodo uses for scheduled callbacks, not a line that receives calls.

We track the rules that decide what lands on your bill

Activation and cancellation fees were banned in June 2026, and by April 2027 providers must let you cancel online. We follow the CRTC proceedings behind rules like those — one email when something is actually decided.

Filing with the CCTS

Koodo appears on the CCTS participating-provider list as Koodo, so a complaint can be filed against it directly.

  1. Go to the CCTS complaint form
  2. Select Koodo as your provider
  3. Describe the issue and the steps you have already taken
  4. Include your account number, any reference numbers, and copies of the relevant bills
  5. The CCTS contacts Koodo on your behalf, and the provider gets 20 days to resolve it before the CCTS investigates further

There is a one-year deadline. The CCTS will not act on a complaint brought more than one year after you knew, or ought to have known, the facts behind it. If your dispute is older than that, file anyway and explain when you found out.

Fill in the bracketed details and paste this into the CCTS form. Factual and specific beats long and angry:

"I am a Koodo customer (account [number]). Since [date], [describe the problem — e.g. I have been billed $X per month for a service I did not order / my promised credit of $X has not been applied / my service has not worked as contracted]. I contacted Koodo on [dates] and spoke with [names/reference numbers]. I was told [their response]. The issue remains unresolved. I am seeking [specific resolution: refund of $X, removal of the service and a credit for all charges since [date], cancellation without penalty]. I have copies of my bills and my contract available."

Two Rules Worth Knowing
