tab available on the home page.
2. When the drop-down menu “HOW To” Wireless Guide displays, select ACTIVATE YOUR NEW
PHONE and click GO, to display instructions needed to activate your phone online.
3. After gathering the required materials, select the Activated New Phone link and follow the online
directions to complete the activation process.
