I changed phones a while ago, but I have never gotten around to changing the IMEI of Fizz’s database. How does one do such a thing?

    Hi Sittingram


    You don’t have to change your IMEI.

    I had a IPhone SE and i change for a XR and it’s change nothing whit Fizz. If you go for another provider you just have to give your actual IMEI and it’s done.

    Thanks for the reply,

    I know I don’t have to, but I should be able to. That way if my phone is ever stolen, then I can block the IMEI from the North American database (blacklisting) by declaring it lost through fizz.

    No, I bought it from a friend a year ago, a use onze.

    After a year and a half your new phone should be showed in your account
