Can a used Fizz sim card be used for a new account?

Is it possible to buy a used sim card to open a new Fizz Mobile Plan?

Hello @fcoursol ,

Thank you for considering joining with your mobile services at us! :)

Please note that the Fizz SIM's aren't linked to an account or a mobile number (except the first 60days after a unsubscription order) So if you can get one from someone or a friend has a extra SIM that doesn't use, you can use it.

However, as some members said already, the best will be to purchase a new one to make sure it is VoLTE compatible, they have a red lightning on them.

You can order it directly from your Fizz account by going at: Mobile -> Activate my SIM -> I don't have a SIM and the estimation for delivery is 2-3 working days as you can see in this FAQ: https://fizz.ca/en/faq/when-will-my-fizz-package-be-delivered

The other option is to physically purchase one from a Couche tard, vending machines from the Montreal metro stations or Jean Coutu centers. In this link you can find a map with all the sell points: https://fizz.ca/en/sim-card

I am counting on your understanding and I wish you a great day,

Normally, no provider allows this. In addition, you will probably end up with a card that does not support VoLTE... Why not buy a new one? Maybe, at a discount, in the new metro vending machines!?

Never buy a used sim card, as suggested get a new one from Couche tard or a vending machine, or directly from fizz, save yourself trouble.

Normally, a used sim card can not be reactivated.

Hope this helps :)
