Tracking order status updates

Tara
Tara Posts: 3 ✭✭

I ordered a phone 5 days ago, and like many of you, there are no updates on my account. I opened a ticket, and finally got a receipt from Fizz and was told in the email that my order is being prepared, but when I check my order status, it just says order confirmed. I get that this is a no frills mobile service, but I am wondering why it's taking so long to see any movement on the order, and keep having to contact Fizz?

    The delivery date indicated on your order summary is meant as a guideline; shipping is done by a third party, and Fizz cannot guarantee a specific delivery date. 

     

    You can see the status of all your Fizz orders in your Order history.

    1. Log into your account and go to My profile.
    2. Click on Order history See details.
    3. Click on the shipping number to see on the carrier’s website the details of your delivery.
    4. If there’s any inconsistency with the delivery information you see, contact the carrier directly.
    5. If the carrier cannot help you, contact us using the chat bubble located in the lower right-hand corner of this FAQ during our business hours so we can open a ticket for this issue.

    When will my SIM card or phone be delivered ?
    1. Delivery will depend on which shipping option you selected when you ordered.
    2.  

    Express shipping (under 3 hours):

    • Available only for SIM card deliveries in the Greater Montreal Area.
    • Offered in the order process when we know we’ll be able to commit to this delay.
    • Expect your delivery:
      • Monday to Friday, for an order placed between 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. EST (no delivery later than 9 p.m.).
      • Saturday, for an order placed from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. EST (no delivery later than 5 p.m.).
    1.  

    Standard shipping (2 to 3 business days):

    • If your delivery time spans a statutory holiday, delivery will take an additional day.
    • Expect your delivery:
      • Within the week for an order placed early in the week.
      • On the following week for an order placed towards the end of a week.

    Signature required for the delivery of a phone.
    1. A phone bought at Fizz will be automatically shipped to the address associated with the credit card used for the purchase. 
    2. The package will be addressed to this credit card holder who will have to show a valid photo ID with their name, and sign upon delivery. 
    3. The shipping company reserves the right to not make the delivery if the recipient to whom the package is addressed is not there or does not have a valid photo ID with their name (and ideally address).

    Give it time, contacting Fizz can ease your mind if you're ever really worried. Delivery might depend on alot of things surrounding the order (location, covid, miscommunications, etc) but if you can ask for a delivery estimation date from them that would work aswell!

    Hope it helps!

    Usually it starts to update once the order leaves the warehouse and the carrier starts the tracking. Considering the fact that our order is still being prepared, I assume that it hasn’t left the warehouse yet. Although I agree with you, 5 days is quite a long time. Did you finance the phone or pay in full? Sometimes it takes a bit for Paybright to clear

    I financed with PayBright, but that cleared very quickly
