Too expensive

Their service plans are really bad for the monthly prices you pay. Useless unstable data speeds. And they think 5G is better than 4G. Actually NO, it's vice versa. If they get back to their 4G, which was much more stable and faster, I will consider keeping my subscription. Their customer service is not straight to the point, they never have a straight answer, just their poor excuses. 1 star.

Hi Marten!
Thank you for the feedback.

Even though we are building a 5G network, we are continuing to build and improve our 4G network as well. With the launch of the 5G network, the traffic is split between the 4G and 5G networks, which will help with capacity issues on the 4G network, as it will not be as overloaded with traffic as before. If you prefer to use 4G, you can set your phone network settings to connect to 4G only. If you need help with this, please contact customer service at +4792405050 or Livechat: https://www.telia.no/kundeservice/kontakt-oss/

Kind regards, Telia

Extremely expensive

Extremely expensive and slow internet connection that disconnects for long periods at random times. Customer service is very bad and rude, they can't even explain why they charge their remaining customers their outrageous monthly high prices, much higher than what they promised.

Do not take a contract out with Telia, you will be sorry

When my family came to visit, I needed a simcard for them to use. A Telia salesman said that it was best for me to take out a contract for them, even though they were only going to be here for 3 weeks. It has cost me dearly! 1. They did not cancel the contract at the end of the month like they assured me they would. 2. I had to pay Telia extra, which when they finally ended the contract, they did pay me back. 3. HOWEVER, after 2 years, I know find out that I owe money for cancelling the contract even after the salesman assured me that all money was paid to all parties and no more money was owed. Apparently SMS were sent but this was never added to my monthly bill & was not displayed on my Telia account either. The assistant on the chat went around in circles saying, "no its for this," & when challenged, said, "oh no its for this," "oh sorry no for that," "okay actually for this." So who really knows! I keep receiving invoices even though I no monger have an account with them. I feel like l'm just going to owe Telia money now every month for the rest of my life. I wish I had never taken out a contract with them because now I am locked in for the longhaul!

I can not emphasize how much I advise…

I can not emphasize how much I advise anyone NOT to use this company.
I was a customer many years ago & was left with a bad taste in my mouth due to such BAD customer service. It starts with the sales personnel that will do anything to get you on board, even 'False' information. The second time which I am trying to get out of still is the same reason plus all the extras that are added to the bills, I agreed to kr 249.- per month & was receiving bills for nearly kr 4000.-, I have wasted so much of my life talking or discussing with customer service , I will never go back again!! I cannot see how anyone can proudly work for this company, there is so much discontent from the customers?? I have been left once again with a bad taste in my mouth of puke, I will never come back & again recommend that to any one.

Hi Dominic! We are sorry to hear that you feel this way - it is in no way how we want it to be. Our salespeople must of course be honest, and we send out an order confirmation right after the salescall which summarizes what you have agreed on. This also contains the terms of agreement. Our monthly prices include calls, SMS and MMS within Norway. If you use services such as Strex payment, Calls abroad or call special numbers with your own prices, this will be added to your subscription fee as it is not included in the subscription. Regards, Magnus

Expensive !

I got a SIM card through Telia when I bought an iPhone in installments. Firstly, the monthly price was quite high for the few Gb I got, but then I got a message that the prices would then increase after the New Year due to "increased costs" for the company..! It is very strange that there are other providers who manage to deliver several gigabytes in mobile subscriptions at a lower price without demanding extra money after the New Year. In addition to the high price, they are hopeless at customer service! Steer clear of Telia and Telenor..! There are much better phone companies out there!

Telia Norge is the worst internet…

Telia Norge is the worst internet provider I have ever seen in my entire life. To provide a start here, there is no option below one star or a negative star. We had a wifi problem at home, and we couldn't connect to the internet for no apparent reason. I tried unplugging and replugging the router, but that didn't help, so I tried contacting customer service via mail and chat, which was another horrible nightmare. I tried calling the number 47-924-05050, which is listed on their scumbag website, but it abruptly disconnected the call after nearly 30 minutes, and I tried again, but it said "busy line" or "user busy." I tried to reach the chat service from here: kundeservice/contact-oss/, but that chat window was disabled even during working hours as they mentioned - I tried around 12:30 PM after we clicked on the chat button (I don't have the option to share a screenshot here). I don't know what the IT department is doing every day, but they can't solve such a basic problem for such an old company. I wish If I could be Elon Musk would take over and fire all of these ineffective employees and managers. At least, I would like to request that Musk take a look at these *to take here some bad words what you want I can't type here** large organizations at some point.

I understand that there will always be an issue and that we cannot always be 100% productive, but we can at least be proactive in informing customers by mail, etc. when there is an issue if it is a larger outbreak, or else keep customer service active and try to solve those tech issues at least.

Hi!
Earlier today we unfortunately had an outage on the internet for a period which affected many of our customers. Unfortunately, this led to both the chat and phone being overloaded for a short time. This problem should be solved now, if you still have problems, you can try restarting your router again. As soon as we had identified the problem, information was published on our website and on Facebook.
If things don't work for you again within a short time, you can now try to contact customer service again, everything works as normal there now, but there is unfortunately some waiting time. Greetings Telia

Bad Costumer Service and Tech Support

Really regret to subscribe on Telia. I got no internet for almost 2 weeks. Internet device stop working and when tried to reach technical support I have to wait for 1.5 hr. No option for call back. When wanted to stop subscribtion they gave me finalty. Just no solution from the tech support but does not want to let me go. I am stuck with Telia. Good job Telia

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. I have to use them since my building have agreement with them. Ever since I got Telia, the nett was very unstable. I talked 4 times with them and all they say is there are no problems they can see. Well, I see the problem and its persistant.

Horrible customer service. I’ve been on the phone over 2 hrs, and as soon as clock hit 2000, the answering machine changed from please wait to now we are closed.
I was both on chat waiting for customer service, and on the phone. After 2 hrs, no one replied me.
I can’t fathom how such a company can still function and have clients with such a service.🤮👎🏼🤯

Extremely poor customer service.very…

Extremely poor customer service.Very rude obnoxious people. A rude individual calling itself Jonas answered the phone this morning (October 25, 2022) and was awful in rudeness and didn't give me answers or help me in any way. I tried to call again to speak to someone else, but have been waiting for hours and they haven't been answering the phone.

No customer service

I have been trying to contact customer service for 40min yesterday, no answer. I'm trying for 1hour 10 min today, still no answer. Where is the customer service? This is very frustrating. Consumer wrights are being violated.
It loos like I have missed some payment for additional speed, but they cut off the internet completely. I have overpaid the outstanding amount and still no internet.

Bad company, definitely not recommended! You get screwed!

A few months (almost a year!) ago, the connection to the internet suddenly became very bad, the connection kept getting disconnected and every time for a longer period. Called customer service several times, after at least half an hour of waiting finally reachable. Then you have to do the same actions again and again, such as restarting, checking cables, resetting... and then they just say we must try to buy new cables or whatever..

Eventually a number of times a technician came and he always did something that temporarily fixed the problem. But the cause was always put with us so that we could pay the bills for his visits. In the end it turns out that the responsibility was with Telia (as they have admitted) and they fix the problem (they say!). They do meet us nicely by giving 3 months of free internet (although we have to call every month about the bill we still get).

But a few weeks later it turns out that the solution was only temporary and now the problem is suddenly our responsibility. And we get an extremely high bill for the technician, not only the standard amount of 1112.50 nok, but on top of that the hourly price of that man. And we suddenly have to pay back the last month of the 3 months that we got for free. We have tried to cancel the contract and even then they still charge a month notice period, which is also added to the bill.

We called customer service again to say we don't agree with the bill. Then they sent an email that we simply have to pay everything because it is our own responsibility. We answered the email that we will pay the contract costs, but not the costs of the technician and then it remained silent.........

At first they keep you on a leash for a long time, but in the end you just get screwed! Bad company, definitely not recommended!!!

Hi Nancy!
I'm very sorry to hear that you have had trouble with the services from Telia. We respond to all emails within a week, so please try to send another email if you do not hear anything from us soon, in case some error has happened. I can surely understand the frustration when the issue has been ongoing for so long, so we appreciate the feedback.
The normal cancellation period is 1 month, but I'm sure we can come to some agreement since because of the situation.
If you do not hear from us within a couple of days, please send us a new email, and we will have a look!

Regards, Telia

Telia was a mistake(?).

I have a mobile subscription “Telia Rask”, 100gb, 200mbs speed, “unlimited data”. If you use up your 100gb, your speed drops to 2mbs. Fair enough.

Only one catch: i have still 70gb left and the internet speedtest shows 2mbs. A 2mbs 5G internet. Let that sink in.

So i pay around 500 nok for what exactly?

I had a chat with “support” and all they could do is admit the existence of these problems and provide as a solution… nothing. They literally said that they don’t know when it’ll be back to normal. On the other side, they used smiley faces when chatting, so that’s a plus.

This is fiiiiine…

Hi there! :) It's correct that the speed will be limited to 3 Mbit/s after you've used 100GB with all our Telia X plans. :) If you are experiencing lower speeds also before you've reached 100GB, then it might be a local issue, which then will be fixed, or there can be technical issues with your subscription or phone, which usually are easily fixed. :) There are no general errors on our Telia X plans now that results in reduced speeds for everyone, so we'd recommend that you contact our customer service again, so we can take another look if there are things that are unclear. :) Is there a local issue for instance, we'll be able to take a look at the status here and let you know more about when it's expected to be in order. :) Regards, Telia
