    No you can do it from you plan without changing the sim

     

    How to choose a random phone number

    To change your phone number to a random new number:

    1. Go to My Plans in your Fizz account.
    2. If there is more than one plan on your account, scroll to the plan you wish to change.
    3. Click on Manage and choose Change phone number.
    4. Here you will see your current phone number and two options:

    5. Select the middle option: Get a new number.
    6. Choose a number from the list. (Click Get a new number list to refresh this list. Note that you can only refresh this list 5 times. When you refresh this list, you will not be able to go back to the previous list of numbers.)
    7. Click Confirm.

    No need. Same sim card. I did before, change from 343 to 613 area code.

    You are allowed to change phone number and keep the same SIM card

    However if Fizz, once you have your plan, you cannot port or transfer your number from another provider.

    To port your number from another provider, you need to activate a new plan.

    You can keep the same SIM card if it is the same format or smaller or if you kept the other formats.
