Haven't been able to order anything from ATT since they only allow 3 product per year or something. They track me by either/or both address or card but I'm not sure. I can't seem to use any prepaid cards and shopsafe doesn't work. It will say " Your card could not be authorized for payment. Please click the back button to double check the card number, security code and expiration date. (90002)".
Anyone know how to get around this ? |

You cannot switch to verizon!!! THey are CDMA and this PIXI Plus is GSM which means it uses a sim card so unlocked it will work on T-mobile or ATT. It will also work on most MVNO that run on ATT as is! The best one that I know about is PURETALKUSA.COM You an but this phone go to puretalk get a sim (no charge) put it in and pay as you go! No contract no activation no taxes! Unlimited talk and text for $39.95 or you can get a plan as low as $5.00!!! I have had my daughter on this plan for 2 years now using an iphone with no data. The phone is stock ATT phone and is NOT jailbroken. Works great if want an iphone and a cheap plan with no data. Of course the internet works fine at ANY wi-fi hotspot i.e home McDonalds Starbucks etc.

Plan is necessary...when you activate the phone
Just had a chat with AT&T and they say it requires a plan because it's a smartphone..... so they will not let you use a smartphone on their pre-paid plan without having a $25 or $50 plan. It will start once you activate the account.If you get this, unlock it and use it with some other GSM prepaid like T-Mobile, I guess you are fine. Got one...Nice option for $20 and $5 for unlocking. I had ordered the refurbished LG U295 but am thinking of returning it now.... |

I spent the last hour looking for a free way to unlock the ATT branded Palm Pixi Plus and found this. Looks like this should unlock so you can use on Tmobile, when traveling abroad, etc! http://www.howardforums.com/showt...on-TMobile Good Luck All! |

Erin B.: Welcome to AT&T online Sales support. My name is Erin. How may I assist you with your order today?
Me: I am considering buying the Palm Pixi (TM) - GoPhone® - Prepaid - Package that is 149.99-130.00=19.99 Erin B.: I am more than happy to assist you with starting a prepaid wireless service today! Me: I want to know if I can use Pay by Minute on this since it is showing only monthly plan options? Erin B.: One moment while I verify this information for you, please. Me: Okay Erin B.: Thank you for your patience! So what you can do is select one of the plans for now. If you are interested in the 10 cent plan, you can switch to the plan by dialing 611 once you receive the phone. You are not being charged for the plan when selecting it today. You will just want to be sure that the refill cards are at 0 unless you are wanting to purchase one to add funds to your account to activate the 10 cent plan. Me: So it will not automatically start charging $25 per month to my Credit Card each month, correct? Erin B.: It will not. The credit card you use in the checkout is a one time purchase. You can set up your credit card for automatic payments once you receive the phone if you wish to in the future. Me: Can I activate after I receive the phone and there is not activation fee? Erin B.: You can activate the phone once you receive it and there is not activation fee or credit check when ordering online. |

can anyone please confirm that this actually has wifi? i'd love to pick one up to tinker with, but it's significantly worth less without the wifi. |
