  • Great, thanks for that information. I would also stay with Fizz, if I thought that they were working on a solution, or we had a timeline, or they gave a s**t But none of these are true.
  • After looking around I have decided to switch to Videotron. They do a CAN/US plan and it looks like they support VoLTE. Anyone have any experience with Videotron in the US? It's funny, Fizz uses the Videotron network and Videotron supports VoLTE. So I am confused why Fizz does not. Unless it's being done on purpose.…
  • Interesting. I just received an email from Fizz saying I have used my phone too much outside of the Fuzz home area and I could be cut off. I am in Florida. I always connect to the airport and hotel WiFi if possible. At the house I always connect to WiFi. So what are they talking about? This is near insulting. No voice…
  • Okay, I finally made it to Florida. Here is the scoop. My phone connected to ATT. Data works fine. Texts work fine. (I am surprised) No voice calls. And my phone (Moto Power G 2021) does support VoLTE. It's on the ATT white list. If this is not fixed in the next couple of months, well it's time to leave and move on. I have…
  • Its great that people are reporting about their experiences in the US. However, it would be "nice" if people would include their phones make and model. Just saying it does not work, is not very useful. The real question is "Is your phone even capable of making VoLTE calls". Just having a phone connected to the LTE network…
  • That's great news. Can we get more details? What phone are you using? Do you have the new SIM? Did you have to do anything, or did it just work? It would appear that Fizz are just covering themselves with the email.. If it does not work, they will not help you. If it does work, bonus!
  • I respectfully disagree. This is a problem Fizz has created by not keeping current, and Fizz must solve it. It has been known for well over a year that the older 3G networks in the US would go away. Also, the 3G networks are planned to be retired in Canada in 2024 (not sure of the exact date). So the clock is ticking. The…
  • Yes, I have a plan B. I have a US Google voice number. I am hoping this should still work. But that's not the point. We should not be looking to find work arounds to problems that Fizz has created, and appears not to be able or willing to do anything to solve.
  • I am really surprised that the various VoLTE in the US threads have all but stopped. I guess, Fizz has win. They don't appear to need to do anything, and we don't appear to care. We are being far too Canadian about this. Still no really word on whether my phone will work on my next trip to the US. Surely, Fizz and us can…
  • I didn't think about asking for a credit for the new SIM while switching the cards over. Good for you. Yes, I too, am very interesting in hearing back about whether the phone works in the US. My trip is off (flight was cancelled!).
  • I jumped the gun, ordering and paying for a new SIM. However, I would not hold your breath waiting for a free SIM from Fizz. I was planning to go to Florida in two weeks times. (but that trip is on hold for the moment)
  • One last point. Do we know if MMS texting will work in the US? This would be useful. It would not solve the 2FA texting problem. Just saying "text messaging" is not detailed enough. MMS uses data, and data still should work in the US.
  • As usual, without clear messaging from Fizz, people are very confused. Some people are claiming that US calls to Canada didn't work. I can report that all is well with receiving and making calls to the US, while in Canada. No problem. Until users report back about their experience roaming in the US, we will know very…
  • Well it's the 1st July. Happy Canada Day. I would be interested to hear from anyone currently in the US, as to whether their phone has stopped working. I really would like some confirmation before I pull the plug on Fizz. I have been with them since the very start. So I suffered though the early days, but the price is…
  • It's been several years since it has been know about the shutdown of 3G. I believe, the date has even been pushed back at least once. The most disappointing thing about the post is; there is no sense that Fizz is even working on the problem, or even cares. Clearly, I don't understand what the problem is. But both ATT and…
  • Just got a email message from Fizz. It states there will be no voice call or texting in the US starting in July. All they say is we can change our plan! Great news. What about supporting VoLTE!
  • I just ordered and installed a new SIM card. I can confirm it still does NOT allow VoLTE in Ontario. I will be going to Florida in a few weeks. I will report back what I find. I am hoping the phone, at least, works. If it does not, I will be pretty upset. Also, Fizz should be more open about what's going on with VoLTE.…
  • I was surprised when I was able to use VoLTE on ATT while in the Florida. But, I double checked and it was working. I am hoping that Fizz allows us back on the ATT network once T-Mobile closes it's 3G network. For me ATT always works well, while T-Mobile is a bit hit and miss. And in some places in the US has no signal.…
  • I was in Florida in the spring, around the time that ATT shutdown their 3G network. I first, I was using ATT (as I normally do), and was able to make calls using VoLTE. I thought that's good. However, my phone switched to T-Mobile at some point (and I was unable to switch back). Once I was on T-Mobile there was no voLTE,…
