Pending Reactivation

My account was suspended for a few hours, then I paid my phone my bill. I got the confirmation that my plan was in the process of being reactivated, and that it would take up to two hours. It has now been over 24 hours. I have zero access to my voicemails, or access to directions while I will be traveling this week and will not have access to consistent wifi. Why has my plan not been reactivated yet?

I communicated with 4 different reps, the last one recommended that for the meantime, I should get a plan with a local provider and Fizz will refund me for the days without service. Why even use Fizz in the first place then?

    I'd like to see if anyone else has encountered this situation in this forum, subscribers and employees alike. And OBVIOUSLY I have exhausted my patience with chat boxes and reps enough to make an account here and post.

    Hi @Bonnie99_

    please first remove your SIM card with caution, then reinsert it and to finish, reboot (power cycle) your device by holding down the device’s start button for 10 seconds. After you reboot, your applications will reload. Your phone will then re-authenticate to the Fizz mobile network. This will allow your device to recover its authorization to access the network.

    Also, activate and deactivate a few moments later the airplane mode of the device, but also test the troubleshooting mentioned in the following FAQ: https://fizz.ca/en/faq/how-test-my-fizz-line


    If the problem still persist despite the possible corrections proposed by the troubleshooting, I suggest you to contact Fizz’s support team directly to inquire about that issue, they will be able to do some further investigation to correct this situation as well as provide you precise answers.

    I tried the trouble shooting a few times, did not work. I have contacted support 4x, and have been issued a ticket. I just thought it would take a few hours, not more than a day for this thing to be resolved.

    There are a lot of users who experienced the same thing, just type ''pending reactivation'' in the research tool.

    Can a @Whizz help this user please and escalate her ticket?

    Thanks

    Other than remove and reinsert the sim card and rebooting your phone, the only advice we can give you is to contact customer service to have your issue solved...
