They won't return your call

They won't return your call. 1 Week now I requested a call back to cancel my home phone. We don't use the service since December 2025. They get money from my CC December and then January. Avoid this company at all cost. They will not entertain you if you want to cancel the service.

I have been using iTalkBB home phone service in Toronto for years and recently subscribed to their Hong Kong phone number app service which is capable of inter alia receiving messages like OTP
I found this very useful when I traveled to Hong Kong and China for 3 weeks since early October.
For the last two days I accidentally logged out of my account and could not log back in despite several futile attempts. I got lucky Ah Wing came to my rescue that she responded to my request promptly. She was so nice that she tried several ways to guide me step by step and I could now use my account as originally intended.
Thank you Wing . Thank you ! 🙏

Be careful about the hidden fee in the monthly payment!

italkBB is well known about their cheap plans. They use them to attract the new customers. But be careful to check closely the contract.

My current subscription is CA 8.99 Unlimited Canada Plan No Contract. But I am paying $13.41 every month. When I went to check with the customer service, they mentioned about $2.88 monthly payment for account management, paying their supplier. My question is if this is monthly requirement, why is it included in the monthly plan. This sounds dishonest!

Hi Lynda Wu, thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand your concerns and appreciate the opportunity to address them.
The $2.88 fee you mentioned is a standard regulatory/compliance charge, which covers several essential services, including porting costs, E911 charges, system access fees, HST paid to service and equipment providers, Do Not Call costs, DID costs, and other related regulatory fees. These charges are collected by iTalkBB and paid over to the relevant government departments.
This fee is clearly highlighted in the application process and is also available for review on our website, ensuring transparency from the start. We aim to provide a simple and inclusive pricing structure by charging a low flat rate for these fees, unlike many other telecom providers who itemize these charges separately.
We value your business and are committed to providing you with high-quality service. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to contact us at [email protected].
Thank you for your understanding.

Thank you for reaching out regarding your concerns about points redemption and the cancellation process. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to clarify these matters.

We apologize for any confusion regarding the expiration of your points. Our current policy does not automatically deduct points each month, as we want to ensure all customers have the opportunity to redeem them at their discretion. However, we understand that this can lead to misunderstandings, and we are reviewing our processes to improve the customer experience.

Regarding your cancellation request, we recognize that waiting for a callback can be inconvenient. Our team is working diligently to ensure timely communication, and we are committed to making this process as smooth as possible.

If you have any further questions or need immediate assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly at 1-877-482-5503 or [email protected].
