Phones numbers waffle

[xdirc]

I got my phone yesterday, activated. And ive already changed my number :-) I did it nearly 4 hours ago. How long does the process usually take before you can use the phone again?

When I try to make a call, it says "Your call could not be validated"



Edit: Nevermind. I had to manually program it. Thank God for Google.

FYI.. Walgreen's will continue this sale until July 30th. I checked it out on the sale tag when I went to buy some.

That's odd, so far they've worked everytime for me, I've used at least a dozen of them, the only thing I don't like about them is the expuse takes 2-3 days to show up : /

Time to try again - I was reflecting on it and these particular Am ex gift cards are in Canadian funds and issued as an incentive promo thing...could be the problem.

yeah if they dont work then u will have to use it on another paypal or use a new amex and after 2 trys they wont let u use the card again w/o calling them.

usely takes about 24 hours for the code to show up for me

i got 100s and 100s of these cards lying around

Thanks to the OP for this tip. Picked up 5 phones from rite-aid and walgreens. They did not care how many I bought at one time.

This tip saves me $450 a month that I used to spend on forwarded numbers. I think I owe a commish to the OP.

Tip for number changing. Once you change your phone number on the website you need to re-activate your phone from phone menu. I figured it automatically does it, nope! Waited 24 hours still could not call my new numbers, re-activated my new phones from the phone menu and BOOM all could receive calls on the new numbers. Silly me.

If there is a money thread I could not find it either. Here's to ya! Wishing ya all the success in the world!!! Thanks go out to all in this forum. It's like I am hooking into some sort of Master Brain of ideas.






BTW here's an interesting screenshot. It actually goes for a long, long way more down but I could not get my screencap to scroll right.

[mercurial333]

I bought 3 of the phones as well.

Their signal is kind of weak in my area, I have to sit by the window to get 1-2 bars.


Good deal anyway.

Looks decent 'Dino.

I am thinking of a drive tomorrow - 45 min to States. Way I have it now is just a lot of call forwarding numbers.

[Giardino]

will you be able to get virgin service up in Le Canada?

[rsot]

You might be right - there is local virgin mobile in Canada but I wonder if it would be compatible...

[GrannyT]

Do you have mobile phones in Canada now then LumberJack?

[Sell4more2]

Just picked up 8 of these bad boys!

[rsot]

@GTran - good one =P

@Sell4moreDigits - way to stack em.

[Giardino]

@Sell4more did you go to walgreens?

[Sell4more2]

Yeah, I got them at Walgreens. Thought they would have at least 20 minutes loaded on

them but they didn't. Had to buy a 10$ credit. :(. For the number change I would have to

call in right?
