Thanks for the present Telus - you shouldn't have.

I very much doubt any company can get away with this, so fear mongering over this situation is a waste of time. Any message sent by Bell or Telus will not cost you anything. If I'm wrong, I will be truely surprised.
That said, there is still no good reason for any mobility company to charge a receiver. If they need to, RAISE THE COST TO SEND!
These two companies fail at PR.
