I have a charge for a local call made while sitting in my home.   I was not roaming at any time and should not have roaming charges on my bill.

Hi @Jaypveep 

We have reviewed the details and we have been able to remove the roaming charge since it was triggered due to accidental data roaming, feel free to check the details in your self serve account when you get the chance.

This is a worldwide situation where the phone can pick signal from a tower across the border when you are living or traveling close to the border.

We recommend switching data roaming off and also switch to manual network and select Koodo in the phone settings, this would prevent the connection to a US tower when near the border.
