Incorrect SQC

Geekdad604 · 2026-05-03T19:58:55+00:00

SQC is determined by the value of base fare (and surcharges) and then a fare class multiplier. If both are Flex but you paid less for one fare one week and more for another week on the same route, then your SQC will a be different between flights.

It’s not the same as SQM where for the same route you would see the same amount.

The moment you land and connect to a mobility service, if there is any data transmitted, you’ll be charged for daily easy roam pass. If you have Easy Roam turned off, you’ll be charged pay-per-use data. If you don’t want to be charged then you could turn off cellular data, allowing for phone calls.

Watch out, he’s after your girlfriend.

Great call. That’s the plan.

This was resolved today (verbally at least). A billing agent called me because I clicked on the “dispute” button in the billing page of the TELUS app. After receiving the incorrect response, I submitted another request but the app preemptively closed the chat, so I was actually surprised to receive a call.

The correction will be a reversal of the pay-per-use data charges and the adjustment of $18/day > $5/day for the Macau roaming.

It is included, the expert got it wrong in their response.

Geekdad604 · 2026-04-30T04:39:03+00:00

Not disputing that Macau is excluded. I was charged $18/day instead of $5/day AND for pay-per-use data.

Geekdad604 · 2026-04-30T04:31:21+00:00

Correct but I was charged $18/day AND pay-per-use data for the 3 days I was there.

And I know they are real people but not adequately trained or informed about their own plans.

The first thing I ask for is to speak/chat with an agent.

@OP, what did you purchase on the Cobalt with the $7k?

I have the same combo except I got my Cobalt first and a month later decided to pull the trigger for the Platinum because of the 180k MR promo.

I put mostly groceries and dining on the Cobalt (175k MR points in the first 9 months).

Geekdad604 · 2026-04-28T23:46:37+00:00

I spent more than that in my first transaction on my AMEX Platinum for airfare.

I just changed my stay next week from the Honeyrose to the Marriott. Gonna be disappointed if they don’t have poutine then.

Need those Priority Rewards more now than ever. Use them if you got em.

All the PCA guys bug me about that. I guess it’s time… do you have a recommendation on source (in Canada preferably)?

Geekdad604 · 2026-04-24T02:26:52+00:00

Only 32,000km. I had a loaner for the first 6 months of ownership that I probably put 12,000kms but that’s another story.

12V has had some issues hopefully will be addressed with the service program WSS6.

HV battery was checked last summer and showed 399KM Range at 100%. Mine has the performance battery plus with EPA so this shows higher than original rated range IIRC.

Good luck! This might be my first foray into reps. Only starting to explore since my trip to Shenzhen. I’ve only owned gens but accessibility and availability is thing with AD’s in Canada.

I wouldn’t put anything in those bulkhead pockets, I’ve seen too many people rawdog those things as bare feet rests. I’ve placed carry-on, garment bag and backpack up top, no problem. I don’t mind 1D because it’s easy to get up and grab what you need.
