Hello, I am currently making a switch to VoLTE. I am currently in step 2 of the protocol, where I have to wait for my current SIM card to be deactivated and therefore my phone to search for the network. But my old SIM card does not deactivate and when I insert the new card it does not work. I don't understand bécasse I followed the first step which was to go to "Change my SIM card" then "Activate my SIM card" and then I entered the activation code for the new SIM card…

    wait the desactivation of the old card before inserting the new one

    don’t rush it.

    probably there is some problem with the procedure and it will be solved soon

  • I've been waiting for 1h30 already... On the step it is marked to wait "a few minutes". My dad made it this week and told me it took 2 minutes to deactivate. So I find it weird that it's so long.

    Are you planning to leave tonight for the states?

    since you are obliged to have a VoLTE sim to use the phone there

    I've been having issues since Friday... I guess it will take some time for them to fix...

    Hello Marie-Pier A. #31917  ,

    Sorry to hear about the issue,

    I tried to verify your account for any Sim card change request that you might have tried, but I didn`t find anything.

    Please try again to change the Sim card using the instructions found in the Sim card box using another browser.

    If you don`t see any changes and a screen that confirms that you managed to make the change, please reach our colleagues on Live chat following these details : https://fizz.ca/en/support so they can help you further with the Sim change request.


    Thank you for your understanding.
    Have a good one,
    -Raul
