I have been with Fizz for a while
My perks has always been the 20Gg extra on my mobile plan that I never need.

My friend who joined later have rebate perks (75% off) on refurb phone which I do need.
Is there a way to update/get better perks?

    Hi @Meep

    The perks to buy a new phone is supposed to be given to user that doesn't have a VoLTE certified phone by Fizz

    Perks are probably assigned individually for every user based on their usage history with Fizz. Using an algorithm known only to Fizz.

    Hi, if your friend doesn't need his discount, he can buy the phone for you.

    Hmmm, well that would make me eligible for it then. I checked the list of VoLTE certified phones and mine isn't in there. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S10e, as reflected by the "My phone" page. 🤔

    I called the number and it said my phone failed the test. My friend used the discount for his phone unfortunately.

    Hi there! That's a good question about Fizz perks.

    Unfortunately, Fizz doesn't currently offer a way to swap or choose your perks - they're assigned randomly when you join and stay with your account. The perks system is designed to reward loyalty over time, with different members getting different benefits.

    That said, there are a couple things you might consider:

    1. Keep an eye on your Fizz account dashboard - sometimes new perks get added to your account over time as you remain a customer.
    2. Fizz occasionally runs promotions where they offer special deals to all customers, regardless of their specific perks.
    3. If you're really interested in getting a refurbished phone discount, you could try reaching out directly to Fizz customer service to see if they have any flexibility, though this isn't typically how their perk system works.

    Have you checked lately to see if any new perks have been added to your account? Sometimes members are surprised to find they've accumulated more than they realized!
