WELCOME

You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers. Take a look at the most frequently
asked questions by our Members or pick a topic over on the left.


MEMBERS' TOP FAQ:

 * 0 Are there any charges to change my plan?
   
   Here's the deal: You got a discount off the price of your phone based on the
   plan level (Silver, Gold or Platinum) that you committed to when you hooked
   up or upgraded.
   
   That means, if you want to switch from a higher plan level to a lower one
   (say, from Platinum to Silver) then there might be a Plan Level Change Fee.
   
   The fee would be to make up for the difference between the original discount
   you got on your phone and the discount you would be able to get at the new
   plan level you want to move to.
   
   Learn more about changing plans

 * 1 When and how can I upgrade to a new phone?
   
   If you’re on a term agreement:
   Head to My Account and log in to check your eligibility. You can also check
   your eligibility right on your phone by downloading and opening the My
   Account app.
   
   If you’re on a Virgin Plus SuperTab™:
   You can upgrade your phone at any time, just by paying off your Virgin Plus
   SuperTab™ balance. When you’re ready for a new phone, head to any Virgin Plus
   store and we’ll hook you up right away.
   
   If you're a prepaid Member:
   You can upgrade your phone at any time by paying the full retail price of a
   new one, just pop into any Virgin Plus store to see our hot phones.
   
   Learn more about upgrading to a new phone

 * 3 I’m going over my plan usage limit. What can I do?
   
   We have tools to help you track your usage, so you can see if and when you're
   going to go over your limit. If you're going over a lot, you may want to
   switch to an awesome plan that gives you the room you need.

 * 4 What is a credit limit?
   
   A credit limit is a pre-set spending limit for your services that’s applied
   to your account. It’s decided and agreed on at your first credit check when
   you hooked up with us.
   
   Learn more about our Credit Limit Program

 * 5 How much will I be charged if I use my phone outside of Canada?
   
   If you travel outside of Canada you’ll be charged the rates of the country
   you are in for calling, texting or using data. Check out the US roaming rates
   and international roaming rates. You can also grab a roaming add-on feature
   to reduce charges and save cash.
   
   TIP: If you’re using Wi-Fi on your phone when travelling, make sure to turn
   off data roaming!

 * 6 When and how will I get my security deposit back?
   
   Your Credit Limit will be lifted and security deposit returned after 6 months
   of on-time payments in a row.
   
   The security deposit is usually added back to your account as a credit. If
   you want to get a cheque for it, then wait to get a text message from us
   saying that your Credit Limits has been taken off and then give Care a shout
   to ask for a cheque. Before the cheque is sent out, the deposit will be used
   to pay any balance owing on your account. Also make sure we have the most
   up-to-date address for you since that’s where we’ll be mailing the cheque to!
   
   Remember, you can update your address online in My Account
   
   Learn more about our Credit Limit Program

 * 7 Why are collection calls continuing after I’ve paid my bill?
   
   It can take up to 3 days for collection calls to stop after a payment is
   received.

 * 8 My bill date has passed, so where is my invoice?
   
   We need a couple of days to pull all of the details together and process your
   monthly bill. Generally, you’ll get your bill in about 9 business days. After
   that you can see it online. Once it’s posted online you still have 21 days to
   pay it, so there’s lots of time to make sure you get that payment in without
   any late payment fees.

 * 9 I’ve made a payment, why isn’t it posted to My Account yet?
   
   Payments through your bank can take a bit longer and your bank is the one
   responsible for processing them. We should get the payment in about 3 to 10
   business days. Hang tight!
