The money is in my balance, but my phone is shut off, and it's saying 0 in balance owing

HI @Taloyoak   is your phone working now?  you posted twice with different threads earlier.  Want to check  if you are all good now

 

New customer? Long time customer? some more details will definitely go a long way to quickly get this resolved

@Taloyoak 

Do you have the $10 plan?

Details are golden, @Taloyoak 

 

We need more.

 

When you say you're "not activated", presume that means you've just tried to activate?  

 

If so, try:

  • rebooting device
  • resetting network connections
  • toggling airplane mode on/off
  • try the SIM in another device to see if you have service (this will negate the device as the issue)

 

Then you also write there's "money's in my balance".

 

If you were without service and you placed money on your account, is there a REACTIVATE or RESUME button on self-serve that you can tap?   It's possible that's all that's needed if you have enough of an Available Funds to cover the plan amount.

 

If that doesn't work, try manually adding $1 by selecting "other" payment type, then tap either button to reactivate.

 

If that doesn't work, try placing your account in Lost/Stolen mode, log off self-serve, log back in and remove that designation, then reboot your device.

 

One of the above should get you going - let us know, if you would.

 

@Taloyoak 

When was your renewal? What plan are you on? Does your available funds equal or exceed your plan amount?

@Taloyoak 

Could we get more details of what you mean by your phone is shut off?

Do you mean that your phone doesn’t turn on?

Are you not having service?

@Taloyoak  - phone is shut off, meaning none of your services (calling/texting/data) are working right now?

 

OR, are you seeing expired or suspended messages, but all your services are working? If this is the case, is your plan renewing tomorrow? Then, these messages appear on your account the evening before and the morning of your renewal for everyone. All should renew as planned if you have autopay registered.

 

If your account is suspended. Try adding $1 as a manual top up payment to your account. Can you then activate it?

 

If your account status is ACTIVE, but no services, try restarting your phone, or removing your sim card then reinserting it. 

You can also try performing a reset of your network settings if your account status is active but you are having network issues.

 

Are you an existing customer or did you recently activate?

If you have enough money in Available Funds in self service but none of your phone service are working try this:

 

In self service choose lost/stolen. Suspend your service and then log out. Log back in after 1 minute and resume your service. Is the status Active? If yes log out and reboot your phone.

 

You can also try resetting network settings, rebooting phone, reinstalling sim.
