I got charged for 7 different days of roaming charges on my bill in September when I was not in the U.S. I live in a border town and my job sometimes requires me to be all over the city. Usually I get a notification that I may be roaming when I get close to the border and have not had an issue with the billing. This adds up to $98 above and beyond my bill! Not happy! I need this money refunded.

Hi
We have reviewed the details and we have been able to remove the roaming charges since they were triggered due to accidental data roaming, feel free to check the details in your self serve account when you get the chance.
We recommend switching data roaming off and also switch to manual network and select Koodo, this would prevent the connection to a US tower when near the border.
For more info about how to prevent accidental roaming charges, please check out this article https://community.koodomobile.com/plans-services-232910/easy-roam-understanding-how-you-will-be-charged-while-traveling-7811296
Also, feel free to check the available plans in your self serve account, as you might be eligible for a Canada-US plan: https://www.koodomobile.com/en/help/changing-your-rate-plan
With a Canada-US plan, there will be no fees for when the phone picks a US tower while near the border,. On top of that, you can use your phone without additional charges in US (some exceptions apply).
