No Fizz LTE accessable in US

poupou47

I have a Fizz account which is a data plan (2Gb) for Canada and US . I came down on dec 3 to US and could not access internet through LTE . My acces was ok in Quebec . I did change my plan in October to include US coverage. I had a note from FIZZ on my phone saying that my plan didn't allow me to access LTE service in US and I need to add money to my account . Please let know what is wrong .

Did you activate data roaming on your phone? Try to find manually a LTE , or 3g network available where you are.
Did you try to put off your phone somes minutes and open it after.
Or, try to put on your phone the airplane mode around 15secondes.
If nothing is working, Please chat on line with them (from 8h00 to 21h00).
Open a session online , go to your account, type:

usually you need to activate roaming, put your phone in plane mode and activate networks again.
if no LTE, try to turn off LTE in cellular settings.

Fizzy

Make sure your plan change in October worked. Some people had problem to change their plan successfully.

 

If you have Canda and USA coverage and you are receiving that text to add money to your account, you should chat with Fizz support.

Are you sure at least that your cellphone is compatible with the LTE frequency used by the US provider you're connected on?

I recently came back from Orlando. The Fizz service was working well.

 

Sometimes you have to restart your phone to get it going.

Or manually choose your network if needed.

 

If your phone works in Canada, it should work in USA as well.

Please provide us with an update.

maybe its the provider you are connected to
i know T-MO uses 1700/2100 frequency (band 4)
just like fizz does for data
if your roaming is on
it should work
has your issue been resolved
if so what was the cause

An alternative: if you have an esim enabled device, check out Airalo. You can get 1GB of data valid for 7 days for 3$.
