I already have a metro pcs phone with a sim card and was wondering if I could it with this phone? Or do I need to take into the metro pcs for activation and new sim card? TIA

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

Just add sim card to new phone and call and activate your new phone with metro. Should be no reason to go into store but they will charge you an activation fee even though you have service with them already.

The one I bought was a replacement for a friend who had one go bad. I switched his sim card over from the one he already had. And it worked fine. I imagine you would have to obtain an activated sim card from your provider if you do not already have one. Sorry that is all I know about it.

It requires microSIM. After you put in the Sim card it will require activation from the service provider and you shiuld be good to go with same phone number and data.

Hi Manuel! From what I can find online, it looks like Metro PCS and T-Mobile have merged, so you should have no problems at all. Kindly, Jessie / The Friendly Swede

Hello, The one that I ordered *did* come with a SIM card - I don't know if there is a guarantee that all of them will ship with a card, but I think it probably should. The card is the new "micro" size, I believe, so I couldn't just stick my old one into this phone. However, t-mobile makes it super easy to activate the new SIM (or "update" your SIM information into a new card...same phone number and stuff). Search for "activate tmobile sim" on google, and it's like the third link. Here's the link (hopefully Amazon doesn't remove it) - http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-4677. Hope that helps :)

Yes, it is factory unlocked. Not sure about it working with Metro. I think you need to find out which bands Metro PCS works on, then check this LG's phone compatibility. This phone uses a sim card - thus, it is GSM. But, GSM and factory unlocked are not the same thing. Hope this helps.

At the risk of sounding dumb here, what's a sim card? I've had a very low-end motorolla phone for the last few years on my go-phone plan. Does every phone have a sim card, and are they able to work when you go from one brand of phone to another? Thanks again.

Yes its a metro Pc phone. It's also a GSM phone meaning if you unlock it you can use it with any carrier you like.

If your Metro phone has a sim card, it will probably work, but I would call Metro first and ask them about it. Supposedly Metro and Tmobile merged but call to make sure before buying an Iphone.

I have a "Go TOUCH Phone" which I don't much care for. I LOVE THE FLIP-PHONE! My question is if I buy another "Go Phone" (the flip phone) can I still use my SIM card? I would hate to have to change my cell phone number. Thanks!

no...this phone is Gsm...metro pcs uses cdma. it will never work on metro pcs, verizon , sprint or virgin . you can use tmobile or att

Only if the phone is a GSM,stay away from CDMA even if its a Metro phone as of 2015 they will not Activate a CDMA as they are trying to phase them out ,Always better to check with Store first before being left with a brick

This Phone is Most definitely a 4G LTE phone! With the merger of MetroPCS with T-Mobile your phone "may" work with Metro. My understanding was that both AT&T and T-Mobile uses GSM. Since Metro (in it ads states "rides on the T-Mobile Network") it could be a simple matter of changing your SIM card to connect. But PLEASE check with MetroPCS 1st. Not all phones or areas may work.

Yes. Now if you get the Verizon model and you're trying to use it on MetroPCS: use your existing SIM on the phone (if all you're doing is upgrading your phone. Otherwise, buy a SIM card and you'll see why). Don't go to Metro, they'll turn you down once you say it's a Verizon phone. Call customer service and select "activate a phone" and then "troubleshoot". Just tell the representative you need help activating an unlocked phone, follow thier instructions and it'll be fully functional by the time you're done. ;)
