Beware of Scam
 
Please don't fall for the scam where a guy with an indian accent calls you and tells you he's gonna fix your computer over the phone.
They'll ask you to download software from ammyy.com!

They have started calling numbers in Canada. Dont fall for it!

It's an easy out, find a location in or around the city that telus can't service, call them up and say you're moving there (provide your "new" address) and want to transfer your service, they'll say they don't have service there and that'll be it, you'll be let off the hook free of charge.

You'll lose your phone service with the move order
