RE: Asking again about consumer cellular

2016-05-24 Thread Pinky
Hi Keith,
That is correct. You just have to have a smart phone that has a sim card in it. 
You call CC up and they will send you out a sim card and you install it in your 
phone and give them a call to authorize it and your done. You can also purchase 
iPhones or other phones from CC but you can just bring your own smart phone and 
you can also keep the same number. Make sure when you call them to get the sim 
card that you tell them the cell number you want to use as it is setup on that 
sim card they send you.

Hi Ed,

So, just to clarify, you were able to do this all from home? No need to go to 
Target or wherever? Assuming one has an iPhone at home, of course.

Thank, Keith

Hi Kathy,
I brought my own iPhone to Consumer Cellular and I just called them on their 
support number. They have great support and I have to say it is one of the best 
support I have used. I had them just send me a sim card for my iPhone and it 
came in about two days. I called them up after putting the sim card in my 
iPhone and in a few minutes after they did some things on their end the iPhone 
was working. It really is that easy. So as far as buying it from Target or 
other places that is up to you as I have not done that. As far as the reception 
goes it is as good as my wife's coverage and she is with Verizon. In the next 
month or so we are going to switch her over to CC as it is about half the price 
as Verizon.

Ed

Is it better to get the phone from Target, or to get it from Apple, and then 
take to consumer cellular place? Asking for a friend. Have your experiences 
with consumer cellular been good? Thank you.

RE: Asking again about consumer cellular

2016-05-24 Thread Richard Turner
My experience with Consumer Cellular has been very good.
We bought our phones directly from Consumer Cellular so they came with the 
right Simm card and were easily activated.
This was over 2 years ago.

I have no idea which method is better.

Richard
