    How do I create my mobile plan?
    Depending on how you subscribed to Fizz, you either create your mobile plan at the start of the subscription process, or when you activate your SIM card.
    You’re never locked into a mobile plan. What’s more, you can adjust your plan any time — changes will take effect at the start of your next payment cycle.
    In both cases, the process is the same. You will use the Plan Wizard to:
    Adjust the amount of data, the number of texts and minutes
    Choose your coverage area — Quebec, Canada or Canada + U.S. (Hawaii and Alaska are included in the Canada + U.S. coverage area)
    Decide whether you want voicemail and international calling
    At the bottom of the Plan Wizard you will see your monthly fee, which adjusts based on your selected plan details. Some Fizz calling options — such as call display, call waiting, call forwarding and conference calling — are always free of charge.
    Once you’re happy with your plan details, click Confirm.
    Important: incoming texts are always free, but incoming calls are not. If you do not have minutes in your plan and no funds in your wallet, be aware that you will not be able to receive calls.

    I just activated my plan. How long before I can use it?
    If you have selected a new phone number, your plan configuration will be done quickly. We will send you a text when your plan is ready to use.
    If you transfer your phone number to Fizz, the setup process can take up to two (2) hours. During this time, you can use Wi-Fi and your plan data. You can also make calls or send texts, but you will not be able to receive them however. We will send you a text when your plan is ready to use.

    Hello Steven,
    Apologies for the encountered issue.
    I have verified your account and there seems to be an active number on it. Please check out Fizzy's suggestions as well in case you are still not able to view the mobile number in your account.
    If the sim card is still not working in your mobile device please try rebooting your phone and try performing a manual network search and connect to a Fizz EXT number for half a minute then switch back to Fizz and test once again. A few more helpful tips can be found here:

    If you are still having issues, please use the link above to reach us directly to verify more with you.
    Thank you for your understanding.
    Have a good day.
    Catalin
