Notice about your account information
March 18, 2026
We are writing to inform you of a privacy incident that affected your Freedom Mobile account. Below you'll find details about what happened, the steps we've taken, and how you can protect yourself.
We detected unauthorized activity within our customer account management platform that occurred between January 12 and 18, 2026. Our investigation determined that a third party used the credentials of a subcontractor to gain access to the personal information of some of our customers.
We quickly contained the incident by disabling the compromised third-party account and have since taken steps to address the factors that made this situation possible, including a review of the processes and controls governing third-party access to our systems. We are also closely monitoring affected accounts for any signs of unusual activity.

Protect your personal information:
