How do i activate this thing? H2o website doesn't allow buying just the airtime pin for the first time without also having to buy a sim card!

I purchased my SIM card from Amazon for 25 cents and used that to activate H2O account. As I recall, I logged in and added my phone. I didn't sign up through the plan. But I did this last February, so I am not exactly sure how I did it. The important thing is you don't have to buy an H2O sim card directly from H2O. Use the chat.

I bought the sim card first and then activate it. The sim card is very cheap tho.

I purchased two of these from a dealer on eBay. He arranged for the activation on my instruction as to when this was required. Overall though a rubbish buy, one didn't work and charges were incurred on the other each time you either answered or made a call.

You can purchase minutes "in the form of a card" on-line (including Amazon.com) or if there is one nearby you can stop in at a BestBuy and pick it up. The card comes with instructions and a code that will apply them to your phone. You can also purchase minutes using your phone to access them with "Buy Airtime."

Get a friend with Sprint to activate it on their account, and pay the $36. It does not take up a phone slot in their plan, and the phone used is charged for the minutes, not the Airave.

I think you need to buy the h2o nano SIM card, for Verizon and H2o are two different carrier companies. Hope this helps.

1. From the main screen, press the OK key. 2. Using your navigation keys, go to "Buy Airtime," then press the OK key. 3. "Buy Airtime" will now be displayed at the top of your phone screen with the list of airtime denominations below. Go to the denomination you would like to buy, then press the OK key. 4. The display will read "Buy XX mins.?" To confirm, press the OK key. 5. If "Please enter your PIN" is displayed on your phone screen, enter your 4-digit Security PIN number, then press OK. Your phone will display the message "Processing, keep your phone turned on to receive your airtime." I hope this helps.

You'll have to activate it using your land-line phone or via web browser. (It's not difficult.)Your phone (I believe) comes with 20 minutes of airtime upon activation. You can buy airtime at Walmart or online as well.A 60-phone-minute purchase yields 180-minutes and so forth with the triple minutes for life bonus.

i got the sim from Amazon and it worked perfectly fine. Just go to airvoice website and you put the sim details in it and purchase the plan ... boom it is activated over air ... 2 mins easy job ... I am on $30 plan but not sure about 250 min plan . I am sure it will not have any issues with it.

I'm not sure cau's I always use the monthly plan. Maybe you can go to H2O official website to chat with custmer service guy. The website is h2owirelessnow.com and the live chat button is on the top right corner.

You need to have your SIM card or Actfast code from the starter pack and go to www.h2owirelessnow.com > H2OWIRELESS > SERVICES > Activation . You will see a small window where you need to enter the new SIM card number or the Actfast code. Insert the SIM in your phone and follow the next screens on your PC to complete activation. You may have to reboot your phone to complete the process. The activation can take a few minutes up to several hours to be successful. In the meantime you sit back and be patient. After the SIM is activated you can go to View Account and charge your SIM with a minimum of $10 using your debit or credit card. Let me know if this was helpful.

You can activate it on other service providers. That use sprints network. I activated mine with Ting, it was really easy and had it working within 5 minutes.

Go to the Virgin Mobile site. At the top, on the right, click the RED "Activate" link. Follow the directions. I tried to go thru the process in order to instruct you more clearly, but had to stop at the zip code field. It isn't too complicated. Hope you got it done. :)

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

The card does not come with any minutes. It does however come with about 250mb of data when you first get it. In order to activate the SIM, you may be in the country that you plan to use it in. Then you must visit the local BTC in order to activate the SIM and top it up with minutes, text, and data. It's pretty straight forward. 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
