Default Was TELUS Mobility Hacked last night?

We have a corporate plan at work and around 6pm last night everyone's phones were shut down with no service.

Does anyone know anything about this?

I find it strange that phone service was shut down for one account and the assumption is that Telus was hacked.

I entered the wrong pin on my debit card once, and it declined my transaction. Should I change banks?

I love how you get murdered on this site for asking a question

I wasn't assuming Telus was hacked I was looking for information on if there were other people affected besides our account or if this was just us.

Thanks everyone for your comments they really helped.

Your question was fine. It was your title that got you "murdered".

What swrong with the title?

I could understand if it was..

TELUS Mobility Hacked?

It was clearly stated as a question. Apparently someone cloned one or more of our sim cards and Telus shut down the entire corporate account.

I was actually wanting to know what the back story is for it was. I wasn't implying that your question was inappropriate.
