BACKGROUND: I just got my shiny new Note 4 & my girlfriend has decided to give my old s4 a try.
She's on her mom's plan, because we're grateful to let her pay for it as long as she's willing & able.
If she were on my account, I'd know how to go about this, but does anybody know the easiest way to get the phone activated? Is it just a matter of swapping sims? (if they're even compatible between the s3 & s4? Haven't gotten that far yet) Or do you still have to go through calling/etc?
If we have to call or go in, does anyone know what info we'd need from her mom? Also, is there any stipulation on activating a phone I just replaced? Obviously, I'm involved, so I'll be around to give any kind of permission. Just trying to get the facts straight.
When I was on t-mobile, all it took was swapping the cards if they were the same size. I joined Verizon before they started using sim cards though, & I'm pretty sure every phone I've had since then came with a new sim & I activated them online or by dialing *228 or 288 or whatever or they did it in-store for me.
Any help/advice is greatly appreciated. She'd like to make the switch tomorrow. The s3 is really driving her nuts lately. [emoji13]
