if so, you should probably kill yourself.

because everyone hates you

i dont think its a big pain in the ass, but most of the new phones i "activate" are with existing SIM cards

(activate in quote marks since i use an already-activated SIM card)

not an iphone, but sprint is fucked up. trying to activate my phone, I call all the numbers they give me, they all say that I don't have an account and I can add this phone to my account and sign up for a new plan....but I already signed up for a plan, etc--spend 30 minutes trying to wade thru their shit! Apparently sprint and sprint/sero are different entities... finally called the sero number and they said the phone is being activated and will be ready in about 4 hours..... *sigh*


so much stress for so little reason. Now I just have to wait and see if it does get activated...

i got on the phone, the lady asked me for the serial number on the phone i just bought, i gave it to her. she said to put the battery in and fire it up

i did

then it booted up and said HI TRAVIS YOUR # IS BLABLABLA

maybe a 5 minute call total, and most of that 5 minutes was me turning down accidental giraffe hid my phone at the top of the tree insurance and shit like that

I suck at life

take it to the store and they should be able to activate it for you. What phone did you get?

2/13/2008 3:48:33 PM

what about an unlocked international phone... then what do you have to do ?

2/13/2008 3:50:59 PM

^the BB8830 is already unlocked, you don't have to do anything.

you answered your own question


I had the same exact experience. If you get an idiot just hang up and call again. Once the idiot answers there is no way you can get it resolved without calling again.

^lol this is true. There have been so many times when I called and got stuff done w/ one person and then another couldnt do shit.


and I got the palm centro

just curious, if you sign up for the sero plan online, how long does it take for them to send you the phone?
