Hello!

Since there have been changes, here are the updated list of prices by component of mobile plans.

Please note: Existing customers are not affected until you change your plan!

This post is based on Cédric's publication on the French forum: https://communaute.fizz.ca/questions/2577048-forfaits-mobiles-tarifs-composante-jour

It can be practical to know how much each component of the package costs, without having to play in the packages page which only gives the overall price according to the options chosen.

Note, only the “Cellular data” component has been modified.

- QC coverage $10 (Canada coverage add $2, US coverage add $10)
- Unlimited calling: $ 7
- Unlimited texts: $ 3
- Voicemail: $ 2
.
Rates for cellular data (You must add coverage and options)
1 GB: $ 5 -> $ 6
2 GB: $ 8 -> $ 11
3 GB: $ 11 -> no longer offered
4 GB: $ 15 -> $ 16
5 GB: $ 16 -> no longer offered
6 GB: $ 21 -> no change
8 GB: $ 24 -> no change
10 GB: $ 31 - > no change
12 GB: $ 36 -> no change
14 GB: $ 44 -> no longer offered
16 GB: $ 50 -> no longer offered
18 GB: $ 56 -> no longer offered
20 GB : $ 62 -> no change

(Rates as of January 15, 2021 - if there are any mistakes, feel free to provide an update in the answers!)

Notes:

1- To have an active plan, the minimum is $ 10 (Quebec coverage). You can put money in your wallet and pay as you go for texts and calls with money from the wallet. (See attached image for rates.)

2- Calls and texts are also available as an "add-on" instead of the "unlimited" option (see attached image for rates). An add-on is active from the moment of its purchase until the end of the next cycle. So if the add-on is made on day 1 of a cycle, it has the potential of 60-61 days of validity. (For someone who makes less than 60 minutes of calls per two months, that means $3 for calls rather than $14.)

3- Coverage area indicates where you can use your cell phone and which area codes you can call (without requiring an international/long distance calling add-on).

4- International/long distance calling add-on rates are not included here and depend on which country you are calling. When you sign-up for your plan, there is an option to pay $5 monthly to receive a fixed number of minutes of International calling to a country of your choice.

    Fizz price is no longer competitive, fortunately I (and many of us here) have grandfathered trial plans.
