Nope, the perk'll just expire.

I transferred my existing 514. There's a sizable group of people who think 438 numbers are less trustworthy so i can understand that you'd want a 514. Those feelings are ridiculous because 438 numbers have been around for years and is just as valid as any 514. I don't think you can get a 514 with fizz but I could be…

varies heavily based on the amount of people in the chat queue.

I think it's possible if you follow this procedure. https://www.techwalla.com/articles/how-to-port-a-landline-to-a-cell-phone

That sounds like a great idea! It would be great to meet the team in person.

This is one of Fizz's first issues and it still hasn't been fixed. No ETA was given either.

It should be usable as soon as you receive it.

This bug is already known by Fizz. We currently have no ETA of when it'll be fixed but the Fizz team says their working on it.

Never heard of a situation as strange as this... Something's definitely wrong...

Never got the notifications, just set it up manually and it will work just fine.

@Kent T. the OP was refering to android phones

You can if you have money in your wallet for pay as you go or purchase a travel add-on.

Carriers in canada rarely allow people to use devices purchased from another carrier for wifi calling.

Nope, your previous plan is terminated automatically and your ex-provider will bill you what you used during your final billing period. It's part of the porting process.

@Kenny L. I already have and they said they don't have the power to force payments and will update me about the problem by email but I'm feeling rather pessimistic at this point.

Already updated my payment info and sent a contact form. The payment failed on a perfectly valid credit card so there might be a problem on their end. Just hope I don't get frozen before it gets resolved.

You cannot port a number which doesn't originate from the subscription zone.

Planète Courier if you're in Montreal.

@Rosie for an iPhone you simply need to accept a carrier settings update and your phone will download the APN automatically.

You can call USA, it's included in your plan. I've tried it and it worked without having any funds in my wallet.

A fix is coming up next week. Stay tuned via the network status page.

You need to manually set the APN, the link can be found here. https://fizz.ca/en/faq/what-are-fizz-network-settings-apn

I don't think the SIM card is the reason it's restarting, I could be wrong though.

Your network would not cause apps on your phone to crash. That just doesn't make sense.

If you're using an Android phone, you'll need to set up the APN or you'll have no data service. Nothing to do with the network. https://fizz.ca/en/faq/what-are-fizz-network-settings-apn

Seems to be a problem with your device. Try searching Google to get your phone app to stop crashing. That app on Android manages your cell service.

@René, Like when CIBC or Whatsapp sends you a verification code for 2 factor authentication.
