LOL I went to MetroPCS and was told it was IMPOSSIBLE absolutely
to get this phone to work... but, guess what, we will sell you a better, cheaper phone
OK
However, you will have to sign up for two lines - don't worry - and cancel one line
and you will still keep your old number.
Fast forwar
After falling for this line at my MetroPCS story in San Rafael CA I rethought and visited a corporate MetroPCS story
My sales association said, of my preferred ThinQ phone
no sweat, $20 to activate, here it is and it is tested and works.
So I'm happy with my phone and add this cautionary story all buyers.
This phone, as advertised, will work and just fine.
Beware, however, of activting with MetroPCS dealers who might either be ignorant or -the horror, the horror - more interested in selling new products and services than getting this GREAT phone to work.
Yours in the struggle...
