No matter what I do, I cannot activate my new phone. My current cell(part of friends and family plan) has to back for repair or replacement and I need a phone. I had a Tracfone before but cannot remember the # so I am trying to register this phone as a new phone. I keep getting "wrong password" and other notices.
How can I reach a real body?

(7,632 posts)I ended up calling back about 7 times. My phone(old one) kept cutting out so I had to recall. New person each time. Whole story over again. I thank you for posting this list. It would be of use to a lot of people who need a 'live body'.
You should post the list as a helpful source for everyone.

I don't recall how long it takes to get a person, but I've done it for my mom's phone before, so I know it's possible.

This number might work- 800-323-2366 let us know.

(151,281 posts)the cheapest prepaid bar phone. It's not expensive at all. You can activate it right away and have it to use while you wait for your phone to get fixed or replaced. Why go through the hassle of trying to re-activate an old one. Buy a few hours and three months of service, and Bob's your uncle.
I see an AT&T bar phone there for $15.

What a pain in the patoot!

(151,281 posts)You may have to use someone else's phone or something. I can't remember. I've always activated Tracfones online. That's much easier.

My mom has a tracfone and I have to do this for her.
