I cant find anyway around completing the activation of my new sim card and transferring my line. I get stuck at the payment section where it tells me my cards are expired. I have several cards saved and none work. It won't let me add a new card either. I have tried contact customer support but their only solution is to change browser, which I already tried.

Anyone have this problem before?

    Hi @yazzouni

    You need to contact the support to get the credit card limit reseted, check if your credit card is allowed from this guide https://fizz.ca/en/faq/what-payment-methods-can-i-use

    To pay for your monthly Fizz plans, please use:

    A Visa or Mastercard credit card

    A Visa Debit or Mastercard debit card

     

    How to add a payment method to my Fizz account

     

    * A pre-paid Visa or Mastercard (example, Vanilla card) can be used to make a payment, but only for one-time payments

    Recurrent monthly payments cannot be planned with a Vanilla prepaid card. Each month, you must make a one-time payment to pay for the upcoming month, otherwise your services will remain unpaid and may be suspended. Here’s how:

    Wait at the end of your payment cycle when your monthly payment fails. You’ll receive an email and a message in your Fizz account will indicate the deadline by which your payment must be made, i.e. within the next 72 hours.

    Sign in to your account > My plans.

    Click on the “Proceed to payment” button and follow the steps.

     

    You unfortunately CANNOT use:

    American Express (Amex), Dinners and others credit cards

    A debit card (except Visa or Mastercard debit cards)​​​​​​​

    Funds from your Fizz Wallet (where available)

    You can always contact the support, https://fizz.ca/en/support , and click on the green bubble on the bottom right of the page in order to chat with them to find the right solution for you.
