    Hi @hendy

    Yes you can reactivate a SIM card

    After you close your plan you can give your SIM card to a friend. They can use it to activate their own Fizz plan (with their own settings, etc.). This will save them from having to buy their own SIM card.

    The activation code for your SIM card is entered by default in the reactivation process for your Fizz plan. With this number, your SIM card can be associated with any Fizz plan.

    In order to keep your number you can unsubscribe, reactivate the plan within 60 days with the lower plan, unsubscribe within the month, and looping like this.

    Unless you transferred it to another mobile provider, you can reuse your Fizz phone number up to 60 days after unsubscribing, whether to reactivate your plan or to use it for another plan in your account.

    As long as you keep the activation code, I think you can reuse a fizz SIM card. However, you will loose your phone number if you cancel your subscription.

    if you want to keep your phone number, you need to keep the line active. To minimize the costs, you can change your package to the smallest offered by fizz.

    Hello @hendy, Fizz does allow past customers to re-subscribe and re-use their Fizz SIM, regardless of time passed since deactivation of service.
