Payment failed but my credit card is working and was successfully added. What's wrong?
I've been trying to make a payment for 2 days and I keep receiving emails from Fizz saying my payments did not go through.
I've spoken with customer support at least 3 times and they even escalated the ticket to their 'technical team' without resolution.
My old credit card expires in February so I successfully added the new card (same number different expire date and cvv) as a new payment method to my account.
I made purchases with my new credit card so I know it works, I called my bank and they told me everything was fine on their side.
What's wrong Fizz? Please fix this issue.

Hi Yu-Yuen
Did you associated your new credit card with your plan?
This is the full procedure
If you need to add a new credit card
1- In your Fizz account, go to My Profile
2- Click on Payment methods.
3- Click on Add a new payment method to add your new payment method.
4- Now make your way to My plans.
5- For each of your plans, click on Manage plan/Payment method, and associate your new payment method.
6- Then, select the payment method you no longer want to us, and click on Delete.
If you associate a new credit card with your plans, you can also force the payment
My Plans → Manage Plan → Payment method → Make my monthly payment. Once payment has been made, your service will be restored within 2 hours.
If you old card is still valid you can use it to make this month paiement4 -
I associated the payment method to the plan, made is default and pressed make payment button.
I also tried re-adding my card several times and retrying the payments without success.4 -
My internet service got suspended because of the failed payments so this is urgent.4

Ok, it is a Canadian credit card right?
It’s weird that it is not working. Can you try a debit card, just this time around to sort everything out later on?3 -
It's a Canadian Credit Card. I don't think I can use my Debit Card to make the payment though.4

Try it. I believe you can !3

Debit MasterCard or Visa Debit card, yes according to https://fizz.ca/en/faq/what-payment-methods-can-i-use#:~:text=You can use a Visa,pay for your Fizz plans.&text=Other cards such as debit,pay for your monthly plan.
But not a regular debit card, it doesnt have a cvv3 -
Take a look at:
https://community.fizz.ca/questions/2504079-added-credit-card-set-default-payment-wasn-t-taken-internet-working#question_2504079_answers
Looks like other people also had the same problem when their credit card expires and they use a new credit card with the SAME number but DIFFERENT expire date and cvv.
The issue is with Fizz.3 -
Oh, I didn’t think that Canadian Banks still issue debit only card. I thought all of them are Visa and MasterCard debits.2

Hi Yu-Yueh
Sorry you having difficulty with Fizz to make a payment.
If your old card is still good until end of February, can you try making a payment with the old card? Or perhaps you can try with a different card while Fizz investigates the issue.
At least you will be able to have your service restored.3 -
I had the same issue when my credit card expired and got the new one. I added a new credit card in my account with the same number but different expiration date and cancelled the old one. In this way the payment went through. Hope this helps!3
