Customers fight back at Bell and Telus over text message fee fiasco

Bell and Telus’s decision to charge 15 cents an incoming text message, even for messages that are wrong numbers or SPAM has gone over like a lead balloon with customers.

I actually called Bell and asked about the unfairness in all this.

Get the response.

The company that owns telephones and runs the Internet refuses to deal with its customers over this issue by phone or by e-mail. You need to write them a letter and mail it.

Here’s the address to save you the frustration of the phone call that will get you nowhere;

Bell Executive Officer

Client Relations Advisor

5099 Creekbank Road East Tower

Mississauga, Ontario L4W 5N2

Here’s some good news though. The braintrust at both companies may be attempting to ignore their customers but they’ll have more trouble ignoring this.

Go get them gang and sign me up or alternatively Bell and Telus why not use some common sense and come up with a fair practice? Naw, that would mean admitting you were wrong. Can’t have that can we?

Yeah John and they run the phones and the Internet, yet refuse to receive concerns on this particular issue this way. Even the lady I dealt with on the phone at Bell admitted it was baffling but she was passing along what she had been told. As soon as my contract is done I'm gone over this issue. I doubt I'll be alone.

The market will look a lot different in a few months. I can hardly wait for a little competition to start bringing down prices.
