How to return a Bring-It-Back™ device
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to return a Bring-It-Back™ device
Check the device condition
In order for a device to be considered eligible for return it must meet the following 6 criteria. If it does not meet the criteria you will need to pay the Bring-It-Back™ Program Amount.
- Device must power on and navigate properly to the home screen
- The activation lock must be turned off
- The LCD must function correctly and be free of dead spots or bruising
- The screen must be undamaged and free of cracks
- The rest of the device must be undamaged with no cracks, missing parts or signs of water damage (hinges, keypad, housing, buttons, battery, etc.)
- All information must be wiped
Take advantage of the TELUS Device Checkup app to check your device condition.
Have a damaged device? Check your warranty coverage and repair options.
If your device is not currently covered by a warranty and you would like to repair it before returning it to a TELUS store, check out our preferred repair partner Mobile Klinik and find a location near you with their store locator.
Back up the device
All information will be wiped from the device after it’s returned. So make sure you backup the device.
