@Reddon

Either your account is closed or your email/password is wrong.

Does it say your account is Active when dialing 611?

Question @Reddon ; Have you signed up for any additional TELUS products lately? I ask this, because the "My Telus" login page uses the same web address as the Public Mobile login page. (Public Mobile is Telus)

They both start with https://telusidentity.telus.com/ and use the same login "cookie"

My login issues started after I had signed up for one of those TELUS Online Security Plans.

I was very confused when I was locked out on either page or both before I figured out what happened. When I create a password on one page and store it in my browser under the same email, I get locked out at the other page, because my browser generates and stores a new password during sign up.

I'm not even sure if Public Mobile/Telus is aware of this.

I was able to change my email and password on the "My Telus" page to match the login credentials on the Public mobile version of the same login page. That worked for me. (changing the email for my Public Mobile account is not possible online)

Anyway, I'm wondering if this could be something you're dealing with @Reddon

It's possible to change the email address for the stored login credentials on any other Telus product that uses the same "cookie" for https://telusidentity.telus.com/

If @Reddon saves and autofill's login credentials on their browser, the email and password is whatever is stored by the same login page elsewhere besides PM.

Maybe @Reddon signed up for Mobility, Entertainment, Security or Health products from Telus. They all seem to be using the same login page https://telusidentity.telus.com/

Can someone confirm that?
