My transfer from Fido to Fizz took about 15 minutes.
As long as you do it correctly it doesn’t take long.12 -
Hi Ka,
As long as you give the correct info upon activation, your number transfer should be completed within a few hours.
You need to give Fizz:
- your phone number
- Fido account number or your phone's IMEI
- your name exactly as registered with Fido
.
I recommend to do the activation & transfer early during the day. So if there are any issues, you can easily contact Fizz support. Fizz chat service is available every day from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. EST.
In order to have a successful number transfer, your Fido account must be active. Once the transfer is complete, your Fido account will close automatically and your Fido SIM card will no longer function.
BTW I hope you know that new customers will benefit from the current $35 promo.
