Am I eligible for vacation suspension?
All customers on a
monthly phone plan
can request vacation suspension. If you have an active service agreement, your contract dates will not be impacted by using vacation suspension.
Note
: Your account must be in good standing to be eligible for vacation suspension.
How long can I put my service on vacation suspension?
You can put your Mobility plan on hold for a minimum of 1 month up to a maximum of 6 months, once per year. A month, for the purposes of a vacation suspension is considered to be 30 days.
For example: November 13 to December 13 is 30 days apart and would be considered a valid request. However, February 1 to March 1 is only 28 days apart (29 days in a leap year) and would not be considered a valid suspension request.
Note
: While travelling, you will not be able to send or receive text messages or calls, or use cellular data while on vacation suspension.
