The area code and number are needed for text messaging.
1-xxx-xxx-xxxx
Voicemail you'll have to contact them for that
I live in Massachusetts, near RI/CT border and
I am having a weird problem with Boost Mobile:
Something went wrong with my activation, I think, As of right now, I can make and receive calls, but i must dial a 1 + area code + number to get both in and out, and I my voicemail is not working at all and I can't send text messages, but I can receive text messages. I tryed Master Reset and I am waiting for tech support. DOES ANYONE HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND WHAT DID YOU DO?
I am considering bring the phone back to Walmart on Saturday or Sunday to get a full refund and purchasing another. I am not interested in Verizon, Tmobile2go, Virgin Mobile or Tracfone, no good coverage or high rates.
Looking at Simple Freedom (powered by Alltel),
the NEW Cingular/AT&T Wireless with $0.25/min and $20/every 90 days, NOT THE KIC PREPAID, or someelse, HELP, thank you. HAVE A NICE DAY.
