Can call forwarding be set when not on network?

Hi guys,

I have the Canada + USA plan and am currently in the USA (so not on the Fizz network). I notice my call forwarding menus don’t load when I’m roaming on a different network. Is it still possible to see them by using the **21*…codes?

Or is it not possible to charge them when not on the network?

    Hi @Sugarkryptonite

    If you activated your plan after March 16th 2022, this option is currently disabled.


    Call forwarding and VoLTE.

    Once a plan is activated with a VoLTE compatible SIM card, manually setting up call forwarding will not work. Call forwarding for the voicemail option remains functional. This is temporary. When Fizz will transition to VoLTE, this situation will be resolved and call forwarding will work when you use a VoLTE compatible phone, activated with a VoLTE compatible SIM card.

    The details about VoLTE

    I don't know if the support can activate for you, btw the transition should be done during the spring 2023

    Not sure if it's just a typo in your message but the code should be *#21#

    Ah sorry my bad, *#21# is just to check the current call forwarding.

    I would probably contact Fizz on the support chat on their website, or Facebook messenger. That always seems to work.
