guys I signed up for a new acct. and ordered Tour which I received today. I picked the 900 everything data plan but don't even know what my new phone number is. How do I activate new phone? how do i know what my phone number is?

[Scout_313]

There should be instructions in the box that the phone was shipped in detailing how to activate your phone. I'd check there first.

[david122575]

[Tdubby]

call sprint? I think *228 is activations

[david122575]

call sprint? I think *228 is activations

[ggarmo]

*228 is for verizon call 800-SPRINT1 from a phone other than your cell to activate

[david122575]

*228 is for verizon call 800-SPRINT1 from a phone other than your cell to activate

ok, will do thank you sir! I will call from my vzw phone to activate sprint tour.

[david122575]

i figured that they'd email me information since i picked the "let sprint choose number" I havent received nothing

[Cowchip]

Isn't it *2

[Tdubby]

you can do it online too.. sprint.com/activate also call 8882114727 i don't think that *228 works

[Tdubby]

*228 is for verizon call 800-SPRINT1 from a phone other than your cell to activate

HAHAH yeah oops

[Tdubby]

Isn't it *2

[Tdubby]

ok, will do thank you sir! I will call from my vzw phone to activate sprint tour.

No you have to call from the sprint phone.. *2 Why did you transfer your #?

[david122575]

HAHAH yeah oops

y the problem is, I gotta know the phone number and I have no idea what da **** my phone number is. I signed up online and they never told me

[Tdubby]

Okay so call sprint customer service???

[TuRtZiLLa]

Okay from the home screen hit the send key once... you will probely see an empty call log but in that screen look at the top and u should see "My Number:XXX-XXX-XXX" that should be ur number...

if not call CS and they should be able to look up your account with ur SSN

[david122575]

im chatting with Jamie G right now. wish me luck

[david122575]

they're taking forever to respond

[david122575]

another thing is that i requested 773 or 312 area code and they gave me 847 area code. its ok though if i keep the sprint account, im going to port over my vzw number. I can do that riht?

[daniellelancaster]

the number should also be in the phone somewhere right? when i dial from my phone it has "my phone number" at the top.

[david122575]

the sprintactivation rep gave me the #

[david122575]

but im having **** of time getting activated. i got error. your preferred network list could not be updated. please try again later if problem persists please contact your wireless service provider.

if this is any sign of how great sprint network is, im ready to run back to vzw on my knees

[david122575]
