I suggest calling your carrier directly. The will be able to activate it or give the correct number to activate it.

not sure. We took it to the Verizon store and they did it for us as well as moving all the contact information. This does not renew your contract with them.

The phone is ready to activate, but you will need to provide a Verizon SIM. Verizon will provide one to you if you are a current or new Verizon customer. Thanks!

You need to call the phone number provided in the activation kit to activate the SIM card first.

I ordered a Jitterbug phone for my Dad and activated it through "GreatCall". You can ask them at 1 (800) 733-6632.Good Luck!

What i did was to go online on my metro PCS account and swap meid and the sim card number there and then. I then power up the device and it should try to activate itself if this does not work then call new activation on your phone by dialing *228

Hi Anne, You will receive the phone via mail from Amazon, then call into GreatCall (Jitterbug) to get your services established. There are easy to follow directions in the box :) You would still be responsible for the $35.00 activation fee. Thanks, Sean

Sorry but no. You have to be issued a Google voice number.FYI they don't mention you have to a smart phone or regular land line just to activate.

Anybody can activate it. As long as you have a sims card. But I seriously do NOT recommend buying this phone. I thought it would be cool because the screen is so big. And I completely ignored the reviews. DO NOT BUY IT.

There are instructions provided on the cover. You have to activate the SIM only via those steps. I made the mistake of activating it by calling the customer care and I lost my 39$.

The phone is activated thru Apple. Simply put in the activated SIM card from that country. Then go to settings>general>reset all settings and your should be all set
