Have you had Fizz refuse to give you internet when you are trying to switch from Videotron?

Onur

I have informed Fizz to switch my internet service from Videotron. I informed them that my contract would be expiring on a certain date. They told me that my account seemed as commercial internet service and they did not start the process. I offered to present evidence of end of contract and evidence that this is a residential address

No actions taken. In fact, I did not even receive an email about the request.

Hi Onur,
I just checked on this matter and you can rest assured that it has been escalated further as you were informed while chatting with my colleague.
Have no worries, as soon as the investigation has concluded we will email you and let you know if you'll be able to subscribe to Fizz Home Internet at the indicated address.

Thank you very much for your understanding.

Have a good one!

Hi @Onur

In my short time, never heard of such refusal.

Are they qualifying your account "commercial" because of your bandwidth usage or the address?

I do not think the end of contract matters to either party.

Neither have I. I wasn't even aware of the fact that Fizz differentiates between commercial and private accounts.

Fizz 100% online. So you should be able to do everything yourself!

@Fizzy Welcome back! I saw you posted some answers. Happy that you decided to help out again :)

Never hear of this kind of problem with Fizz. Maybe your adresse have a problem in their system and so they appeart as commercial. Or your appartement where commercial in the past. The Whizz have answer and im sure they will fix it. Have a nice day :)
