Why activate your upgrades? Leaving your upgrades inactivated is like leaving money on the table. EACH MONTH. Watch our video and see how easy activating your upgrades is. Everything is done in seconds, directly in your account. Video Once activated, an upgrade is recurring and you will therefore automatically benefit from it every month. The upgrades Each time you reach a new level in the My Rewards program, you unlock a new upgrade. An upgrade is a long-term reward that boosts your plan every month, like additional mobile data or a monthly discount on the price of your Home Internet plan. Please note that if the bonus is added during your 4.5-day freeze period before the end of your billing cycle, it will only be activated in the following billing cycle. Since the billing is already visible on your account, this is why you will need to wait for the next cycle for the bonus to take effect. Once activated on your plan, you get to enjoy your upgrade each and every month. Keep an eye out and activate your upgrades as soon as possible to fully take advantage of them. The bonuses have a lifespan of 2 years. Each Fizz plan has three (3) slots on which an upgrade can be applied. The number of unlocked slots ready to welcome an upgrade varies based on your My Rewards level. If you have more than one slot available on a plan, the upgrades you’ll assign to that plan will be cumulative, making your plan even richer. Can I gift my upgrades to another Fizz member, or transfer them from month to month? Your upgrades are yours, and yours alone. You cannot gift your upgrades to another Fizz member. An upgrade, however, gets the same preferential treatment as your plan. As

My phone is using an unusual or high amount of data. Why?
The amount of data your phone uses may vary depending on how you use it, which native installations are running on it, and which applications you have installed. Some applications, native or not, can use your mobile data in the background. For example, cloud-based apps such as Google Drive or Apple iCloud could be using your data to automatically backup your photos, videos, and documents. Some streaming music or video services can also download content in the background. Fizz provides you with handy tools to keep you informed about your mobile data usage: A usage metre (visible when you first sign in to your account) tells you how fast you are consuming your minutes and your data, compared to the amount available in your plan. Notifications at 75%, 90% and 100% of your usage. Note: You must log into your account and activate notifications at 75% and 90% usage. If you do not, you will only receive a notification when you are at 100% of your usage. You can also check your mobile data usage directly via your phone. The steps to follow to check your data usage can vary depending on the type of phone you have. Here are two examples: Android: Settings → Connections → Data usage → Mobile data usage iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Cellular data usage Here are some examples of average usage: Type of service Bandwith Data Consumption YouTube UHD 4K: 6 to 10 Mbps 1080p: 4.5 Mbps 720p: 2.5 Mbps 480p: 2 Mbps UHD 4K: 2.7 to 4.5 GB/hour 1080p: 2 GB/hour 720p: 1.1 GB/hour 480p: 450 MB/hour Music streaming Audio quality: 320 Kbps Audio quality: 96 Kbps Audio quality 320 Kbps: 50 MB/hour Audio quality 96 Kbps: 44 MB/hour Video streaming (Other than YouTube) High video quality: 5 Mbps Medium video quality
