Making and receiving calls outside Canada and the United States is now available in select countries through our Voice A add-ons. Text messaging and data usage remain accessible. You can choose to get a block of data, called a Travel Add-on, or even change your plan’s coverage if you’re travelling outside your coverage zone (for example, if your plan is for Ontario only and you’re going to Quebec). Keep in mind: Province-only plans (Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, British-Colombia) work only in that province. When you travel to another province, your minutes, texts, and data don’t apply. You’ll need a Travel Add-on or Wallet funds. Canada or Canada + USA plans already include usage across those areas — no add-on needed. And remember — Wi-Fi is always your best friend 😊. Make sure the roaming option on your phone is enabled, otherwise your usage will be blocked. How much will it cost.

The withdrawal of the 3G network will start July 31, 2025, for Fizz and several of its partners. All calls made with your Fizz mobile plan will then go through the LTE network thanks to VoLTE technology. Mobile members who are not VoLTE-compatible, due to their SIM or their phone, will eventually experience service degradation until they can no longer make or receive calls, including to 9-1-1. To maintain the quality of your mobile service, check your VoLTE compatibility as soon as possible: Use a VoLTE-compatible SIM card or an eSIM (if your phone allows it). Use a phone that is VoLTE-compatible at Fizz. Activate the VoLTE function on your phone. IMPORTANT: If any of these criteria is not met, none of your c alls (including 911 calls) will go through once the 3G network has been completely removed To learn more about the withdrawal of the 3G network in Canada, visit the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) website, and the Canadian Telecommunications Association website. What is VoLTE? VoLTE stands for Voice over LTE, which basically means a phone call will use the LTE network. The opportunity to use the LTE network for your calls means: Improved sound quality for your calls. Faster routing of your calls, meaning the delay for the phone to ring at the other end will be shorter. Reduced interruptions when you go from the Fizz network to a partner network. Do the test As 3G network withdrawal is gradual, your calls may work in some places, but not in others. The best way to find out if you're ready for 3G network withdrawal is to do the test. Dial #TEST (#8378) on your mobile phone from the locations where you usually make calls and listen to the voicemail. If you hear confirmation that your

Some text messages sent by businesses such as 2-step verification messages may not be sent to your phone properly.

See our network coverage map If you are outside the Fizz network, you can connect via our partner network. Learn about accessing our partner network Troubleshooting: Make sure your plan includes text messages Log into your account to access the text message activation tool. If your plan does not include text messages, it will be impossible for you to send texts on your phone. You can adjust your plan up to 108 hours before the end of your payment cycle to add text messaging. This change to your plan will take effect at the start of your next billing cycle. You can also add minutes to your plan and use them immediately by buying an Add-On for local or long-distance calls. Restart your phone Reboot (power cycle) your phone by holding down the phone’s start button for 10 seconds. After you reboot, your applications will reload. Your phone will then re-authenticate to the Fizz mobile network. This will allow your phone to recover its authorization to access the network. Do you use a native application? Make sure you are using your phone’s native messaging app. If you are using a non-native application to send your messages, it’s possible that the issue originates with this app. These messaging apps may have their own server or messaging centre. Examples of popular messaging apps: WhatsApp Viber Line Mobile Messaging Snapchat Google Hangouts Voxer HeyTell Telegram Talkatone Etc.

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 range of phones, new or refurbished, from smart models to flip phones. 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. You might see some negligible traces of wear if you look closely. An Almost perfect phone was previously used, but is in very good condition. You may see a few marks and in some cases, minor scratches or traces of light wear. Consult the cosmetic criteria

Please note that starting November 4, 2019, the entire Canadian telecom industry will gradually implement universal call blocking in an attempt to prevent telephone fraud. As a member of this industry, Fizz will be activating this feature for all its mobile service members. Starting this November 4th, non-compliant numbers could therefore be blocked. What is universal call blocking? Universal call blocking is an automated feature, based on well-defined rules. The feature is designed to block calls that do not comply with international numbering plan standards to counter unwanted calls and telephone fraud. Why is Fizz implementing this feature? Actually, starting November 4, 2019, the entire Canadian telecom industry (which Fizz is a part of) will be gradually implementing universal call blocking to counter unwanted calls and support the fight against telephone fraud. As a mobile phone service subscriber, you get all kinds of calls. The majority of them are legitimate; they come from family or friends. Others come from automated systems; even though some are honest calls (automated appointment reminders, for instance), a large number of them are unwanted and might actually be fraud related. That’s why Fizz, as a member of the Canadian telecom industry, will be implementing this feature for its members. Do I need to pay for universal call blocking? No, you won’t incur any additional charges for this feature. It’ll be gradually implemented nationwide by the Canadian telecom industry members, starting November 4, 2019. How does this feature work?
