    For those members that are unaware, Smokers’ Helpline currently offers text message and live chat support to those living in Ontario and Saskatchewan!

    You can get this support by texting iQuit to 123456. Your standard text messaging rates from your provider may apply.

    With this service, you will receive support on the go with text messages that are customized to your quit date. In addition, you can text keywords (e.g. craving, edgy, stressed) for extra help when you need it the most. This will prompt a text recommending how you can effectively deal with the situation or craving. When you need it, by texting chat you can also chat live with a Quit Coach during our business hours.

    You can read more about this service, and others, under the How we help tab of our website.

    Sincerely,
    Kate R

    Hi quitting2017,

    Congratulations on your new quit!

    To confirm, the phone number is 123456 and the message is iQuit.

    If you have done this part correctly, I wonder if you reside outside ON and/or Sask where these services are offered.

    If either of these two are NOT the case, please don't hesitate to give us a call so we can help remedy your technical difficulty. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Jenna Lee
