Make sure the power button doesn’t remain pressed If your phone’s power button remains pressed, it could shut down your phone, or be the reason it reboots in a loop. The issue could be caused by a protective case (or any other equipment of that nature) that applies pressure on the button without your knowledge. Charge your battery completely When the phone cannot store enough charge, it could reboot in a loop or shut down. Check that this is not an issue with a damaged electric cable. Test with another cable to make sure. You can also test the charge by removing the power supply block, and connecting the USB end (Type A) into a compatible device. Check that the cable works well by trying to charge another phone if you have one. Restore your phone to its factory settings IMPORTANT: Save all media, contacts, apps and text messages that are archived and want to keep before proceeding. Some of your phone’s parameters will need to be reconfigured after: mobile data blocking, NPA, Wi-Fi settings, Bluetooth function etc. The steps to follow to reset your network settings will vary depending on the type of phone. Here are two examples: Android: Applications → Settings → General management → Reset → Reset settings → Click on Reset settings iPhone: Settings → General → Reset → Erase all content and settings Check whether the issue is still there before configuring and personalizing your phone, or installing apps. Perhaps you’re due for a new phone? If your phone is a little outdated, refreshing it may be a more affordable solution than you think. We have phones, new or Preloved, to fit every budget.

A SIM is what identifies you and connects your phone (whether you buy one on fizz.ca or bring your own) to the Fizz mobile network. An eSIM is basically a virtual SIM card. Important: Before ordering an eSIM card, make sure your device is compatible. Not all phones support eSIM technology, and this verification must be done by you. We do not have a complete list of supported devices. To check if your phone is compatible with eSIM technology, dial * #06#. If an EID code appears, your device should be compatible Important: don’t delete your eSIM. Never delete an active or about to be activated eSIM, including the one from your previous provider if you are transferring your number to Fizz. Too late? A few steps are now required to save the situation. See the steps If you get an error message after your eSIM is installed in your phone: The reason -> your phone is trying to connect to the Fizz network, but the transfer of your number hasn’t started. What you need to do -> go in your account under My plans > Manage my plan > Install my eSIM and click on the button to launch the transfer. Important -> Do NOT delete your eSIM. Too late? A few steps are now required to save the situation. See the steps Please note that there is no 30-minute activation delay for the eSIM when activating a new plan. Where to get an eSIM Ordering and activating an eSIM is done at the same time, directly at Fizz.ca. You need a compatible phone and Internet access. If it’s not already done, create your Fizz account and from the Overview page, add a mobile plan. After validating your address, you’ll be offered a choice and that’s where you can

Going on vacation, moving or simply taking a break? Put your Home Internet plan on pause with just a few clicks. Good to know: A mobile plan cannot be put on pause. The best solution if you don’t want to lose your rewards in our loyalty program is to adjust your plan to its strict minimum (by only keeping the provincial coverage for instance) for the time being. How to change my mobile plan Putting your Internet plan on pause Putting your Internet plan on pause is done directly in your Fizz account > My plans > Manage plan > Pause my plan. Price per pause: $10 (plus applicable taxes) Your Home Internet plan can be put on pause up to two (2) times every 12 months per calendar year, for a maximum of six (6) months each time. The first time you put on your plan on pause will therefore determine the dates of your 12-month period. Let's illustrate this with an example. If you pause your plan on February 3, 2025, your plan must be reactivated no later than 6 months later, on or before August 3. You will then be left with one (1) pause available until February 2nd of the following year. Keeping with that example, say you wish to schedule your second pause to start December 12, 2025. Because your 12 months end February 2nd, 2026, that second pause will end on that date even if its length will be less than 6 months. If you wish to keep your plan on pause beyond that date, you’ll need to submit a new pause to start February 3, 2026. You will then be left with one (1) pause until February 2nd, 2027. Good to know: You keep your Fizz Wi-Fi modem. You’ll need it when your
