Why buy a phone at Fizz ?
Which mobile plan am I allowed? The beauty of buying a phone with Fizz is that there are no restrictions on your Fizz mobile plan : You create the mobile plan you want, whether it’s big or small, to go with the phone you choose. You can change your plan as many times as you like. You are not stuck, and only pay for what you need each month. Did you know you can get a discount on your mobile plan for 24 months? As you shop for a phone, new or Preloved, look for the phones identified with a purple stamp to get a discount for your plan for 24 months. If you have lots of unused data on a given month for instance, that data will roll over to the following month. So you may choose to reduce the amount of data included in your plan (and therefore pay less for that month) to benefit from that rolled over data. New and Preloved phones Fizz offers a wide selection of phones to choose from, whether brand-new or Preloved. A new phone is, well, brand-new, and comes with the manufacturer’s warranty . Look up warranty details. A Preloved phone is not brand-new, but it’s a great alternative if you’re looking for a great phone but don’t want to pay full price. Preloved phones come with a warranty of 6 months. Look up warranty details. There are two (2) categories of Preloved phones: Perfect Almost perfect A Perfect phone was slightly used.
