Fizz Overhauls Quebec Plans With 5G, but Some Prices Jump

Fizz has shaken up its Quebec mobile plans, bringing 5G to every option with data while raising prices on some of its biggest buckets. The cheaper plans get faster network access, but anyone shopping for 100GB will notice a much bigger bill than before.

The changes follow the lineup in the November prepaid plans roundup. Here are Fizz’s current monthly prices for Quebec-only coverage, with unlimited talk, text and voicemail, before taxes:

The 1GB, 5GB, 35GB, 50GB and 200GB tiers are gone from the current selector. Fizz has also dropped the old split between lower-data 4G plans and larger 5G options. The lone 4G choice left is talk and text without data.

So what’s the catch? The $24 plan now comes with 2GB instead of the previous 5GB, while 100GB costs $9 more per month. That works out to another $108 over a year, before tax. The 150GB option is up $4, and the entry-level talk-and-text plan is $3 more.

The $28/10GB plan is a simpler upgrade: the same monthly price, now with 5G. Fizz is advertising the move as a limited-time offer, without listing an end date. A compatible phone and 5G coverage are required.

These are Quebec-only coverage prices, not nationwide roaming prices. Choosing Canada or Canada-U.S. coverage changes the bill. Fizz’s plan builder lets you adjust those options, and its terms say your monthly base price stays unchanged unless you change your plan. That means the new advertised rates aren’t an automatic increase for existing subscribers.

Fizz still offers unused-data rollover for up to two additional months, alongside its separate Black Friday member gifts.

Would you trade some data for 5G, or keep your existing Fizz plan?
