I have an offer from Fizz , that I can get a "preloved" phone for 1$ to replace my not VoLTE compatible phone. However the price that I finally pay is 18 $, because I have to pay all the taxes on the price they claim the phone would cost. That's ridiculous. So I'm paying taxes on something that I don't pay. Anyone having an explanation about why is that ?

    Hello @Nilvap,

    Thank you for letting us know about this.

    I verified your account, and I can see that you managed to submit an order, and the taxes amount appears to be 0,15$. The total amount you should pay is 1,15$.

    However, it appears that the transaction for the phone was not processed yet even though the order is confirmed.

    To make sure that there are no issues with the order, I escalated a ticket to our technical team. You can see it in your Fizz account under My settings > My tickets. Also, you will be informed via email as soon as we have an update.

    Have a good one!

    It seems ridiculous since you pay 1$ and the taxes must be on 1$
    In the other hand 18$ can be a good deal too why they didn’t offer for 15$ +tx

    Probably it is an error with the gui

    They are sales taxes therefore they must be applied after the rebate @Whizz you should open a ticket

    For those who can potentially get the same screen that I got, it is just a visualization error !
    At the end the system will charge you only 1.15 $

    Thank you for this clarification, I suspected that the document was incorrect.
