Good Day & Welcome to the Bell Community Forum.

To temporally suspend any one of your services, you will need to login to MyBell. Scroll down > to the bottom of the main services page. Select > Temporary Service Suspension. Select > the services you wish to suspend & follow the onscreen prompts. Save > your changes.

You will not be able to make or receive calls (except 9-1-1 calls), or send or receive text messages. You will also not be able to use mobile services on linked devices, such as NumberShare wearable devices.

I have included the following web link to assist if you wish to suspend a service.

Temporary suspensions (bell.ca)

A one-time suspension charge of $49 will be applied to your next bill. Monthly service charges will be prorated within 1–2 billing cycles. The amount depends on the dates when the suspension takes effect and when it ends. Monthly rental charges (for example if you rent-to-own a TV receiver) will continue to apply as per the terms of service.

Take care.

There is a $49 fee to temporarily suspended my TV service but is there another fee to reactivate the same service.

Thank you for your question. There is a fee of $49 to suspend services. It is applied to your next bill. There is no additional charge when your service suspension ends and your services are restored.

Thank you for your question. The maximum length you can have a service suspension in force is six months. That means your suspension can start when you leave in October but will end on the date you select, but not more than six months later.

I’m leaving a country for 6 months, I don’t want to continue paying for my services. Can I freeze my phone number so I won’t loose it? If not, how can I cancel it? I can’t call Bell directly
